Dear Emma,

I refer to your email of 6.5.2021 requesting for the number of transgender
persons in custody (PICs) currently under our custody and the place of
their detention.

According to the established mechanism, our Department arranges
transgender PICs to serve their sentences in the Transgender Unit of Siu
Lam Psychiatric Centre.  As at today, there is no transgender PIC at the
unit.

Should you have any enquiry, please contact our Principal Officer Mr. WU
Yu-shing Samuel at 2582 5234.
