HONG KONG HOUSING SOCIETY ANNUAL REPORT 2020/21
Management of Conflicts of Interest
A two-tier declaration of interests system is adopted to ensure a transparent and clean corporate image of the Housing Society. Board and Committee Members are required to declare their interests, directly or indirectly, in a contract with the Housing Society in each year after the holding of the Annual General Meeting; and immediately before the holding of every meeting held for the purpose of considering that contract or matters in relation thereto. The concerned Board and Committee Members will not take part in the deliberation of the contract unless permission is given by the chairman of the meeting.
Owing to the high public expectation and in order to protect the image of the Housing Society, the Chairman, any employer of the Chairman, any firm in which the Chairman is a partner, and any company of which not less than half of the issued share capital is beneficially owned by the Chairman shall not during the term of chairmanship of the Chairman enter into or tender for any contract with the Housing Society unless the Supervisory Board determine that it is beneficial to the Housing Society to enter into such contract.
