The Mainland Affairs Council says two public servants have been identified as
holders of Chinese ID cards, while 75 others have been found to have
residence certificates issued by China.

an investigation into public sector worker holding Chinese ID documentation.

According to council head Chiu Chui-cheng, the the investigation has so far
checked the status of approximately 370,000 military personnel, civil
servants and public-school teachers.

99.87-per cent of the 370,000 workers investigated have signed an affidavit
declaring that they do not hold any form of Chinese identification.

The investigation is being carried out in stages, starting with those
categories of government workers and Chiu says the government has so fat
helped the 77 people revoke their Chinese documentation.
