ICAC to commence household survey next week to gauge public views on anti-graft work
************************************************************************************
The ICAC will kick start its annual opinion survey next Monday (November 27) to gauge public attitudes towards a probity society and their understanding of Hong Kong’s anti-graft work.
About 1 700 Hong Kong residents, aged between 15 and 74, will be selected randomly for interviews to be conducted by an independent and professional research agency appointed by the ICAC.
"It is important for the ICAC to suitably adjust its work strategy to align with social development and public expectations. The ICAC Annual Survey enables the Commission to more accurately gauge public perception of the city's probity situation, devise appropriate anti-corruption policies and maximise the impact of our anti-corruption efforts," said an ICAC spokesman.
Selected households will receive a notification letter from the ICAC. Interviewers of the research agency will visit the households between 10am and 9.45pm during the survey period for a simple face-to-face interview lasting about 10-15 minutes. Selected households are welcome to call the research company or the ICAC to schedule the interview at their preferred time.
All interviewers will wear a uniform, bear an authorisation letter issued by the ICAC and a staff identity card of the research agency for identification purposes. All data collected from the survey will only be used for aggregate analysis, and completed questionnaires will be destroyed after completion of the survey.
Details of the survey are now available on the ICAC corporate website (www.icac.org.hk). For enquiries, members of the public may call the ICAC survey enquiry hotline 2826 3267 between 10am and 10pm from Monday to Sunday during the survey period.
