The government's Task Force on Land Supply has collected a third of the 27-hundred questionnaires handed out since it began touring the city to explain the options and gather opinions on how to find more space for housing.

Its chairman Stanley Wong said he thinks the response rate was good. He also dismissed criticisms that the questionnaires were biased.

Some lawmakers and a concern group earlier complained that the consultation is misleading and only promotes land supply options that the government prefers.

But Wong said he doesn't see a need to revise the questionnaires.
