Re: 教統局怎樣check報住地址

Dear mamamolly
I am sorry that I am not very good at expressing myself. I have no intention to offence you or any others. I just really want to clarify some legal concepts.
It is not necessary to take a vow with legal bindings in order to make it a criminal offense. Like the case of applying "Grants and Loans" for university studies, or applying "Comprehensive Social Security Assistant" (CSSA), you have no need to take a vow but you are still subject to legal prosecution if you are not providing the true information on your financial situation.
The discussion you mentioned in 2002 was just an effort trying to educate the parents because if the parents are forced to take vow, they would be more serious in supplying information. The proposal was turn down finally because it was economically or financially unjustable but not infer any implication that providing false address information is not a crimianl offense.
I would like to stress that without taking a vow doesn't mean it will not be a criminal offence. In the case if the parents have taken a vow but later found to supply false address for their kids, they will be subject to be charged for two criminal offenses. The first one will be "fraudly" and the second one will be "making a false vow".
Dear Y2KChild,
I'm sorry I may sound stupid as I'm a just a common mom with little legal knowledge. But if what the authority did in 2002 was to educate parents, then they certainly did it with the opposite effect. Their statement "intend to make it a criminal offence" certainly have the impression (to people without sounding legal knowledge) that it is currently not a criminal offence. For education purpose, they can state clearly that it is already a criminal offence and they will reserve the right to prosecute anyone who does it. Instead of doing this, every year, they merely come out to state to the parents that they have the right to cancel the allotted seats if the information provided is found to be inaccurate. Sarcastically, it sounds more like a reminder to the parents that they can "try their luck" without any serious consequence if they are being caught.
