Release of Information Related to Deeds of Gifts

Assoc Prof Daniel Goh Pei Siong asked the Minister for Culture, Community and Youth (a) whether deeds of gifts executed with the NHB may be shared with third persons and, if so, under what circumstances may they be shared; and (b) whether the deed of gift of items from 38 Oxley Road had been protected by a confidentiality clause and, if so, why did NHB release the deed to the Prime Minister.

The Minister for Culture, Community and Youth (Ms Grace Fu Hai Yien): Mdm Speaker, may I beg leave for Question Nos 6 to 11 to be answered by the Prime Minister and Deputy Prime Minister Teo in the Ministerial Statements that they will make later today, as well as by the Ministers when the House considers the two statements?

Mdm Speaker: I give my permission. We go to Question No 12. Mr Patrick Tay.
