Better understanding: Secretary for Labour & Welfare Matthew Cheung visits Tin Shui Wai to learn more about residents' needs.

Eleven clinical psychologists will be stationed in Tin Shui Wai early next year to enhance mental health services, Secretary for Labour & Welfare Matthew Cheung says.

Visiting the district today Mr Cheung said residents are facing employment and transport problems. To encourage them to seek jobs the Government will put more effort into promoting the pilot Transport Support Scheme in the coming months. If the response to it remains unsatisfactory it will expedite the scheme's review. The Government will also offer more retraining services and help residents find jobs.

On domestic violence and mental health Mr Cheung said the number of teams handling serious cases in the district have increased to 11 and the Government has launched a scheme to facilitate early intervention of suspected mental health problems.
