Dear Correctional Services Department,
Thank you for your reply. However, the requested statistic has been maintained and provided publicly by your department as recently as 2018, as seen on p843 of this document: https://www.legco.gov.hk/yr18-19/english...
I would greatly appreciate it if you could explain the reasons as to why more recent information for the same statistic is not available.
Thank you very much for your help in this matter.
Yours sincerely,
