At the same time, health declaration arrangements at various ports must be implemented as soon as possible.

Ensuring the supply of masks to combat stockpiling and price increases

Recently, there has been a tide of buying masks in the market. The shortage of supplies during the Spring Festival may worsen. The DAB urges the government to sell inventories that are not urgently needed in a short period of time through designated retailers or arrange to distribute free masks to the public through the district office. Grasp masks worry. At the same time, the government should closely monitor the supply situation and crack down on issues such as stockpiling or price increases to ensure that the lack of supply will not cause public panic.

If necessary, the DAB suggests that the Hong Kong Government can turn to the central government for help to ensure the supply of personal hygiene protection items such as masks.
