  • "Completed flats not being released fast enough"

The Financial Secretary, Paul Chan, has reiterated his concern that property developers were not releasing completed flats quickly enough.

Speaking after attending two radio interviews on Saturday morning on his budget, he said the government was working on tackling the matter but could not give a timetable.

"We have observed that there is a rising trend. We are looking at it. We have invited the Transport and Housing Bureau to look at it to see if we have to do something, and if so, what are the measures", Chan said.
