Ban Sharks Fin Dishes at Events Organised by Public Service Agencies

Mr Louis Ng Kok Kwang asked the Prime Minister (a) whether sharks fin is still being served at events organised by or for the Public Service; and (b) whether sharks fin will be served at future events organised by or for the Public Service.

Public agencies abide by the procurement principles of fairness, transparency and value-for-money. Agencies decide on their respective menus based on what is prudent and appropriate for the occasion. We do not have policies specific to the serving of shark’s fin.
