This can help drive the development of the industry for enhancement in quality and professionalism, while the public can access more comprehensive information and with greater protection when selecting and engaging PM services. The upgraded version of the register is equipped with a user-friendly search engine. Relevant information can be searched by selecting the following buttons: ‘Licence Status’, ‘Licensee Name’, ‘Licence Number’, ‘Type of Licence’, as well as ‘Number of Flats for which Property Management Services are Provided’.”
