Elderly-friendly
Housing
It is estimated that Hong Kong’s elderly population with age 60 or above will constitute
34% of the city’s population by 2034 according to the Census and Statistics Department
of the Government. While Hong Kong has one of the highest rates of elderly staying at
institutional elderly nursing homes, many baby boomers prefer “ageing in place” at home.
In this issue, we will explore the opportunities and challenges regarding “ageing in place”,
and the role for surveyors in elderly-friendly housing.

Open discussion forum on Review of Disciplinary Procedures
Every member of the HKIS is required to maintain a high and honourable standard of professional conduct and shall discharge his/her
duties in accordance with the highest standard of business ethics as provided under the Bye-Laws and Rules of Conduct of the Institute.
To keep pace with the development of the profession and rapid changes in the socio-economic environment, the General Council
considered it necessary to conduct a review of the existing professional conduct and disciplinary related procedures. The review,
including implementation of amendments to the Bye-Laws and Rules of Conduct, is aimed at enhancing the existing disciplinary procedures
mechanism. Legal advice has been obtained from Senior Counsel who has proposed some amendments to the Bye-Laws and Rules of
Conduct.
A Working Group on Review of Disciplinary Procedures (‘Working Group’) was set up to study the proposed amendments as raised by the
Senior Counsel. The recommendation by the Working Group to accept the legal advice as provided by the Senior Counsel was endorsed
by the General Council.
As the review on disciplinary procedures is considered an important issue affecting all members, the General Council have organised an
open discussion forum as follows:-
Date: 23 June 2017 (Friday) Time: 7:00 pm to 8:30 pm
Venue: Lecture Room, Surveyors Learning Centre, Room 1207, 12/F,
Wing On Centre, 111 Connaught Road Central, Sheung Wan, Hong Kong
The General Council will share with members the review by the Working Group including the current disciplinary procedures, the
proposed changes, recommendations and the way forward.
All members are invited to attend the forum to share their views on the proposals. To register, please visit the HKIS website at www.hkis.org.hk.
