In general upon receipt of a specific application the department in charge of the site will consider the nature form operation mode date and time of the proposed activity to determine whether or not the bazaar is suitable to be held at the site and whether there are other matters requiring attention in connection with the proposed activity or site

我們知道區議會的討論能充分透過對區情的熟悉反映區內不同持份者的意見，清楚了解哪些地點最為合適，所以透過他們的推動，確實有一些很成功的個案。
Given DCs understanding of the local conditions their discussions can fully reflect the views of various stakeholders in the district . DCs also know which sites are most suitable for holding bazaars . Hence through their promotion there have been a number of very successful cases
