School

Rehab school 'in clear' after probe

12-04-2010
The operators of a drug rehabilitation college on Lantau island say the ICAC has completed its investigations into the body and has found nothing wrong.

The Christian Zheng Sheng Association is now calling on the government to allow the school to move to new premises in Mui Wo - saying that otherwise it may have to close down, because it cannot meet fire and building safety requirements as its current remote location in Chi Ma Wan.

The ICAC has said it won't comment on individual cases. The school's proposed move was held up after its financial accounts were called into question last year. There were also protests from Mui Wo residents, who say they want a vacant school building to house classes for local children.
