     Announcing the appointments, the Secretary for Financial Services and the Treasury, Mr Christopher Hui, said, "We are grateful for the time and effort that the Chairman and members of the PRP have devoted to review and advise the Securities and Futures Commission (SFC) on the adequacy of its internal procedures and operational guidelines. With their background and experience in the financial services area, we are confident that the five new members will contribute to the work of the panel."
