Secretary for Development Michael Wong:
In the second quarter of 2019-20, the Government will sell by tender two residential sites. The sites are located in Kai Tak and Tuen Mun, capable of providing around 1,350 flats in total. The MTR Corporation Limited also plans to tender Package 4 of the Wong Chuk Hang Station project, which will produce about 800 flats. 

Including the supply from private development and redevelopment projects, the private housing land supply in the second quarter is estimated to produce about 2,480 flats in total.  

Together with the residential land supply in the first quarter, the total private housing land supply in the first half of 2019-20 from all sources will stand at about 5,420 flats.  
 
In the second quarter, the Government will put up for sale one commercial site atop the Hong Kong West Kowloon Station of the Guangzhou-Shenzhen-Hong Kong Express Rail Link, capable of providing about 294,000 sq m of gross floor area, making it the largest commercial site to be sold in recent years.

The Government will sell by tender two residential sites in the July to September quarter, providing about 1,350 flats.
