Ombudsman Jack Chan Chi-chi announced on 13 October an own-initiative investigation into the effectiveness of the Leisure and Cultural Services Department's management of indoor fitness rooms, covering eligibility requirements for entry, the booking system, utilisation rates, monitoring measures and equipment maintenance. The LCSD has 87 fitness rooms under its purview, and members of the public must first complete an orientation session or training course before they can hire the facilities. In 2025, the total number of places for orientation sessions was about 25,000, while registrations throughout the year reached 377,000 person-times. The Office welcomes written submissions from the public by 13 November.
The announcement lists the gap between the number of places in LCSD fitness room courses and the annual number of registrations, allowing readers to compare whether they can hire the facilities and the difficulty of queuing.
