屯門區議員葉吉江危駕罪成今日起停職一周 辦事處外貼公告未提原因
Tuen Mun appointed District Councillor Kenneth Kat Kong Yip was convicted of dangerous driving in May. The Home and Youth Affairs Bureau wrote to him yesterday, stating that he had committed misconduct as a district councillor, and suspending his functions and duties as a councillor for one week from today. A reporter from The Witness visited Kenneth Kat Kong Yip’s councillor office at Good Fortune Mansion in Tuen Mun San Hui this afternoon (10th). The office remained lit and staff were working inside. A notice posted outside stated that his duties and functions as a district councillor would be suspended from today until the 16th, during which time the office could operate only on a limited basis, and that he would resume serving residents on the 17th. The notice did not state the reason for the suspension.
