Government conducts enforcement action on compulsory testing notice at building in Tsing Yi

The Leisure and Cultural Services Department, together with the Kwai Tsing Police District and the Department of Health, conducted an enforcement operation today (December 8) at a building in Tsing Yi, which was included in a compulsory testing notice earlier. The operation commenced at around 8am and ended at around 11am today.

Starting from around 8am today, staff arranged by the Government stationed at the entrance/exit of the Block 2, Broadview Garden, Tsing Yi, to verify the testing certifications of persons subject to compulsory testing so as to confirm whether they had undergone testing in compliance with the requirement of the compulsory testing notice. Persons subject to compulsory testing had to present the SMS notification containing the results of COVID-19 tests or relevant proof, to prove that they had followed the requirement pursuant to the compulsory testing notice and completed the test within the specified period.

During the operation, 338 persons were checked. Among them, one person was found to have failed to comply with the compulsory testing notice. He was subsequently issued compulsory testing order, requiring him to undergo testing within a specified period. A fixed penalty notice of $10,000 was also issued to him.
