The question

To ask the Secretary of State for Defence, what assessment he has made of the adequacy of the condition of (a) former UK military sites and (b) monuments of registered historic importance in Hong Kong.

Answered by Al Carns

The maintenance of former UK public buildings and monuments, in Hong Kong, is a matter for the Hong Kong authorities.

The Commonwealth War Graves Commission currently maintain a number of UK war graves in Hong Kong. They are unaware of any wider issues concerning former UK public and military infrastructure within Hong Kong.
