With regard to an article published today (August 24) by a weekly magazine concerning a dinner held at the residence of the Chief Secretary for Administration on August 11, 2011, a spokesman for the Chief Secretary for Administration said that the dinner was a normal social occasion.
"It is reported in the article that the focus of the dinner was the security arrangements for the visit of a state leader. This is totally unfounded, and we deeply regret this kind of irresponsible reporting," the spokesman added.
