**************************************************

     The Electrical and Mechanical Services Department announced today (June 30) that notices under the Energy Efficiency (Labelling of Products) Ordinance had been served to two compact fluorescent lamp (CFL) importers to remove the reference numbers of the following 18 CFL models. As a result, the concerned CFL models are not allowed to be supplied in Hong Kong.
