Fight Crime Committee report released (with photo)
************************************************** The Fight Crime Committee Report No. 24 giving a detailed account of the committee's work in 2004 was released today (October 7).
During the year, the committee examined a number of issues including the overall crime situation; progress reports on the Police Superintendents' Discretion Scheme; the Correctional Services Department's new initiatives on offenders' rehabilitation programmes and publicity activities on the reintegration of rehabilitated offenders; and fight crime publicity campaign strategies.
The report also carries chapters on the 2004 Fight Crime Conference, the work of the District Fight Crime Committees as well as the two sub-committees under the Fight Crime Committee -- the Standing Committee on Young Offenders and the Publicity Sub-Committee.
Chaired by the Chief Secretary for Administration, the Fight Crime Committee consists of seven other senior government officials and eight non-official members. It is responsible for drawing up plans to reduce crime, to co-ordinate efforts in fighting crime, to monitor the results and to determine ways in which the public can be stimulated to contribute to the reduction of crime.
The report is now available for collection at all the District Offices of the Home Affairs Department. It has also been uploaded onto the Security Bureau's website at www.info.gov.hk/sb.
