On 6 August, the EOC released the findings of the Study on Breastfeeding at Publicly Accessible Premises in Hong Kong. The study found that 81% of the surveyed women who had breastfed or expressed milk believed that more breastfeeding or milk expressing facilities are needed in public places. Some respondents reported issues with existing facilities, including inadequate availability, inconsistent quality, unsanitary conditions, and long waiting times.
