Sir Paul Bryan

asked the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs if he is satisfied with the state of public and private housing in Hong Kong; and if he will make a statement.

Mr. Renton

I refer my hon. Friend to the reply given to him by my hon. Friend the Parliamentary Under-Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs on 20 May at column 143.

Sir Paul Bryan

asked the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs if he is satisfied with the opportunities for sport available to the people in Hong Kong; and if he will make a statement.

Mr. Renton

The provision of sports facilities in Hong Kong continues to improve and expand through cooperation between the Hong Kong Government, the municipal councils, the governing bodies of sport and voluntary organisations. Opportunities now exist for the population to participate in almost every type of sporting activity at all levels. Sporting facilities, including multipurpose indoor stadia, international standard swimming pool complexes, athletics grounds and water sport centres are provided by the urban and regional councils. In addition, since its completion in 1982, the Jubilee sports centre has been the focal point for sports training, and has provided excellent facilities for many sports.
