Mr Lim Choon Mong asked the Chief Secretary whether he will state what steps the Government is taking to have the existing vacant as well as the newly created specialist posts filled at an early date; and whether the Government would consider appointing suitable local officers to act in such posts pending the appointment of substantive holders to them.

Mr W. A. C. Goode: Assuming that the question refers to specialist posts in the Medical Department, the vacant posts are periodically advertised in the local press and officers are being trained to fill them. Officers are appointed to act in vacant posts when suitable to fill them.
