Land reclaimed in the Wan Chai Development Phase II project is not intended for sale.

Responding to the Action Group on Protection of Victoria Harbour's statement today, the Government said the project is to implement the Trunk Road project comprising the Central-Wan Chai Bypass and the Island Eastern Corridor Link.

Any reclamation incurred will be decided by the alignment of the Trunk Road and all such reclamation will be incidental. All reclamation proposed must comply with the Protection of the Harbour Ordinance and the 'overriding public need test' stipulated by the Court of Final Appeal, and will be kept to a minimum.
