The Government today (January 25) announced updates on the "Resource Handbook for Bazaar Application".
The Environment and Ecology Bureau (EEB) and relevant bureaux/departments (including the Home and Youth Affairs Bureau, the Culture, Sports and Tourism Bureau, the Commerce and Economic Development Bureau, the Home Affairs Department, the Housing Department (HD), the Leisure and Cultural Services Department (LCSD), the Food and Environmental Hygiene Department (FEHD), the Transport Department, the Fire Services Department, etc) have jointly updated the "Resource Handbook for Bazaar Application" to enable organisations/persons interested in organising bazaars to have an easier grasp of the relevant application procedures and processes involved. The Handbook covers –
- how to look for suitable venues, as well as the procedures for application for hiring a government venue (including venues under the management of the HD/Housing Authority, the LCSD and the Lands Department);
- a template of bazaar proposal to enable organisations to comprehensively plan for the proposed activities early on;
- relevant licences and/or approval required for organising various common bazaar activities and the relevant application methods; and
- points to note in the operation stage of the bazaar.
The Handbook has been uploaded to the EEB website (www.eeb.gov.hk/food/en/press_and_publications/otherinfo/index.html) and the FEHD website (www.fehd.gov.hk/english/licensing/resource_handbook_bazaar_application.html), and will also be available on the websites of other relevant departments in due course.
