Secretary for Home Affairs Caspar Tsui visited the Physical Fitness Association of Hong Kong, China today to inspect its work in implementing the Fitness Centre Subsidy Scheme launched under the second phase of the Anti-epidemic Fund.

Mr Tsui said the scheme aims to provide a one-off subsidy of $100,000 to fitness centres to tide businesses over financial difficulties arising from anti-epidemic measures.

He thanked the association for handling the scheme’s applications.

Mr Tsui also expressed gratitude to the fitness industry for complying with the Government’s preventive measures, including suspension of business, in the fight against the virus.

Given the stabilising epidemic situation, the Government has conducted a health risk assessment and will allow premises, including fitness centres, to resume operations, Mr Tsui said, adding that he hopes the fitness industry will soon regain vitality.

The Home Affairs Bureau commissioned the association to assist in implementing the scheme, which opened for applications on May 4.

As of May 7, the association received 397 applications, of which more than half of them have been initially found to be eligible, involving subsidies of about $20 million.

The application period for the scheme will end on June 3.
