Wang Fuk Court independent commission to submit report by end of month; John Lee says comprehensive reforms and accountability will be pursued as soon as possible

After six rounds of hearings, the independent commission of inquiry into the Wang Fuk Court fire will submit its report to the Chief Executive by the end of this month. John Lee said that upon receiving the report, he would push forward comprehensive reforms and pursue accountability as soon as possible within a short period, and would make a detailed announcement then. He said the Development Bureau would submit proposals to amend the Buildings Ordinance within this year to strengthen regulation, enforcement and penalties; the government also told Legco that the iAM Smart platform could be explored for handling owners' corporation authorisations, and iAM Smart currently has 4.8 million registered users.
