Post-office appointments for former politically appointed official Dr Ko Wing-man and former CPU Head Mr Shiu Sin-por
******************************************************************************************
     The Advisory Committee on Post-office Employment for Former Chief Executives and Politically Appointed Officials has advised on the proposed acceptance of appointments by Dr Ko Wing-man, former Secretary for Food and Health, and Mr Shiu Sin-por, former Head of the Central Policy Unit, after their departure from the Government on July 1, 2017.

     The Advisory Committee considers that, subject to the observance of certain restrictions it has advised, the acceptance of the proposed appointments by Dr Ko and Mr Shiu would not give rise to any potential conflict of interest. The Advisory Committee also does not anticipate adverse public reaction or public perception to arise from the proposed appointments.

     The Advisory Committee considers and advises on the post-office employment or appointment for former politically appointed officials and other former officials. In considering each case, the Advisory Committee has regard to the information provided by the former official concerned, the assessments by relevant government bureaux or offices, and the criteria for advice as stipulated in the guidance notes on post-office employment for politically appointed officials.

     Details of the above-mentioned cases are available at the Advisory Committee's website (www.ceo.gov.hk/poo/eng/index.htm).

     The membership of the Advisory Committee is as follows:
