Transcript of the Chief Secretary for Administration's media session

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

Following is the English portion of the transcript of the media session given by the Chief Secretary for Administration, Mrs Anson Chan, this (July 16) morning:

Reporter: Should Dr Chung apologise to the Chief Executive and should the Government set up an independent inquiry?

CS:I think the important thing now is to establish the true fact of the case and the various allegations. In this respect, I, of course, welcome the Hong Kong University's decision to set up an independent enquiry. I hope this enquiry will begin its work very soon and complete its work as quickly as possible and that it will make open its findings. Before these findings are announced publicly, I hope that nobody will point an accusing finger at anybody because under a free society everybody has a right to defend himself.
