Mr Cheo Chai Chen asked the Minister for Information and the Arts whether there are plans to build a library in or near to the Nee Soon Central Constituency and if so, when the library will be ready and where will it be located.

BG George Yong-Boon Yeo: The Government has set up a Library 2000 Review Committee to conduct a major review of our public library system. The review is now underway. It will determine, among other things, the number, size and location of libraries that will be needed over the next ten years.

The Review Committee will take about a year to complete its work. Whether a library will be built in or near the Nee Soon Central Constituency would depend on the recommendation of the Committee.
