獨立委員會交火災報告 李家超：短期公布全面改革和如何追究責任
Chief Executive John Lee says he has received the report submitted by the independent committee on the Tai Po Wang Fuk Court fire, and will announce a comprehensive reform plan and how responsibility will be pursued shortly. He says those involved have already been criminally charged, and the government will seek legal advice to publish the report as soon as possible in an appropriate manner without affecting the trial. The reforms cover areas including supervision of building maintenance works, building management and regulation of fire service installations.
The Chief Executive explains how the report will be handled after receiving it from the independent committee, setting out the choice between publishing the report and the criminal trial, and the follow-up arrangements for reforms covering building maintenance and fire service installations.
