Education Vouchers and Education Subsidy in Hong Kong This paper differentiates between public subsidy for education from public provision of education and argues that public subsidy through a voucher scheme is more efficient than public provision. The production efficiency, cost efficiency and allocative efficiency of the education voucher scheme are analysed. The paper concludes that the timing for adopting a voucher scheme in Hong Kong is getting better.
