"Anti-epidemic Support Scheme for Property Management Sector" under "Anti-epidemic Fund" continues to disburse subsidies
******************************************************************************************
The application period for the ASPM started on February 24, and online application commenced on March 13. As of today (March 21), the Property Management Services Authority (PMSA), which has been commissioned to implement the ASPM, has received 761 applications, of which 50 applications have been approved, involving subsidies of $1,230,000 and benefiting 82 building blocks. The relevant property management companies (PMCs) and owners' organisations (OOs) will receive notifications for disbursement of subsidies shortly. The list of properties for which applications have been approved will also be announced on the website of the PMSA (www.pmsahk.org.hk/en/aspm/subsidy_list.html).
The application deadline for the ASPM is April 15. Eligible PMCs and OOs are reminded to submit their applications to the PMSA in time. In general, the PMSA will notify the applicants of the results and disburse the subsidies in about three weeks after receiving the application forms and all necessary documents.
The ASPM aims to provide an "Anti-epidemic Cleansing Subsidy" to the PMCs or OOs in private residential and composite (i.e. commercial cum residential) buildings, and subsidise them to provide the "Anti-epidemic Hardship Allowance" to front-line property management workers (i.e. cleaning and security workers). For details on the ASPM, please contact the PMSA at 3696 1156 or 3696 1166, or visit the website of the PMSA (www.pmsahk.org.hk/en/index.html).
