Examination of Estimates of Expenditure 2003-04 CONTROLLING OFFICER’S REPLY TO INITIAL WRITTEN QUESTION Head : 186 – Transport Department Subhead (No. & title) : Programme : (2) Licensing of Vehicles and Drivers Controlling Officer : Commissioner for Transport Director of Bureau : Secretary for the Environment, Transport and Works Question : (a) Why the target average waiting time for driving test candidates increased to 85 days in 2003 as compared to 63 days in 2001 & 2002? (b) Why the target average waiting time for vehicle inspection at government centers in 2003 is 5 working days, much longer than the actual 2 working days average waiting time for vehicle inspection at government centres in 2001 and 2002? Asked by : Hon. CHENG Kar-foo, Andrew Reply : (a) In the past several years we have set a target of confining the average waiting time for driving test candidates to not more than 85 days. Since 2001, we have achieved shorter average waiting time of 63 days with the resources available. However, in 2003, there will be additional demand on our resources from recently introduced initiatives such as the issuing of new private driving instructor’s licences and providing lectures for Driver Improvement Courses and Quality Driving Instructor Courses. We have hence been more conservative in our estimate of the average waiting time. We will aim to shorten the actual waiting time for driving test as far as possible in practice. (b) The target average waiting time for vehicle inspection at the Transport Department’s vehicle examination centres is 5 working days. In the past two years, we have shortened the actual average waiting time to 2 working days. Since the inspection lane equipment at one of the vehicle examination centres is scheduled for replacement in 2003 and the inspection capacity may be affected during the replacement period, we have adopted a conservative estimate of 5 working days as the planned average waiting time for vehicle inspection in 2003. We will aim to shorten the actual waiting time for vehicle inspection as far as possible in practice. - Gototop Signature Name in block letters ROBERT FOOTMAN Post Title Commissioner for Transport Date 20 March 2003 Reply Serial No. ETWB(T)034 Question Serial No. 0249
