Dear Mr Wu,

Thank you for your update.

As you may be aware, I have made this request for information through a public website designed to share requests made by the public and the replies from the government on the internet. This benefits the public, from having easy access to information provided by the government, and also the government, from having to handle less duplicated requests. It is in line with the objectives of the Code on Access to Information under which this request is made.

I understand that the FEHD is ready to provide me with hard copies of the requested documents. However, this makes it difficult to share the documents on the website, and also increases delivery costs. May I ask if the FEHD is able to provide me with a PDF file containing the requested documents?

Yours sincerely,

C.C. Kan
