Government Logistics Department

Government Logistics Department, Hong Kong is responsible for the printing and publishing of government materials to served government departments and agencies, as well as the general public.

The GLD took over the old role of the Hong Kong Government Printer, but unlike other modern-day government printers, the responsibility of government information is on the Internet. The Government of Hong Kong created the Office of the Government Chief Information Officer or OGCIO. Since the handover, the Hong Kong government has been promoting what it bills as e-government. The role of the GLD is still important though, for those who do not have access to the Internet and services that still require printed material.

The GLD is the responsibility of the Secretary for Commerce and Economic Development, whereas the OGCIO is under the Financial Secretary.
