Exclusive | Study group set up to resolve HKU leadership row to join coming council meeting: sources
- Education Bureau did not confirm such plans but says group will reveal its work results in due course
The Education Bureau did not confirm such plans but said the group would reveal its work results in due course following more than 50 conversations with University of Hong Kong head Xiang Zhang, council chairwoman Priscilla Wong Pui-sze and other members of the governing body, as well as senior management staff.
After nearly two months, the group, headed by Permanent Secretary for Education Michelle Li Mei-sheung and Tim Lui Tim-leung, chairman of the University Grants Committee, is planning to attend the council meeting set to be held in two weeks, according to two sources who had met the group.
“They asked us what we thought about them attending the coming council meeting,” the sources said, giving no further details on when or how many members and meetings they planned to take part in.
“I was quite shocked when they raised the idea,” one of the insiders said.
