As I pointed out in my opening remarks the current - term Government under the leadership of the Chief Executive the entire accountability team and the civil service have been working with unswerving fealty and full dedication to serve the public
大家定要記着，議員為民服務，不能只顧大事，不理小事。
We must remember that Members are serving the public and they cannot just focus on big issues and ignore the small ones
這些是香港賴以成功的核心價值，我們定必會捍衞這些價值，建設更美好的香港。
We will certainly uphold these values to build a better Hong Kong
香港警察是一支高度專業和優秀的紀律部隊，以不偏不倚的態度履行職務。

律政司會繼續不偏不倚地履行《基本法》的憲制職責，秉行公義。

我再次呼籲示威人士以和平理性方式表達意見、顧及其他人的需要，切勿以身試法，更不應該參與任何破壞法紀的行動。
I once again appeal to protesters to act peacefully and rationally and to take into account the needs of others when expressing their opinions as well as to stay away from crime and refrain from any law - breaking acts
在兩層的投訴處理機制下，任何對警方的投訴都會得到公平、公正的處理。

While we absolutely respect the rights of the public to express their views there is no denying that the violent assaults from some individuals have led to serious confrontations and left people injured
至於近日在政府辦公大樓附近的示威活動，雖然政府絕對尊重市民遊行集會的權利，但是示威活動已經影響到公共服務，亦造成一定的交通阻塞，對市民造成不便。
As for the recent protests held near government offices buildings while the Government absolutely respects the publics rights of procession and assembly these protests have adversely affected the effective delivery of public service and resulted in traffic disruption causing inconvenience to the public
我呼籲示威人士表達意見時要和平、理性，不要影響需要政府服務的市民。
I call on protesters to express their views in a peaceful and rational manner without affecting citizens who need government services
警方一定會非常謹慎地處理每宗個案。警方調查完畢後，在有需要的時候才會交予律政司決定是否提出刑事檢控。
The Police will handle each case with great care and upon completion of its investigation pass cases to DoJ as necessary for a decision on whether prosecution should be instituted
律政司一定會按證據、適用的法律和《檢控守則》作出決定，除非有充分及可以被法庭所接納的證據，令案件有合理機會定罪，否則律政司不會提出檢控。
DoJ will make each decision based on evidence the applicable laws and the Prosecution Code . Unless there is sufficient admissible evidence to support a reasonable prospect of conviction no prosecution will be instituted

If there is sufficient evidence to institute a prosecution DoJ will then consider whether it is in the public interest to do so taking account of factors such as the nature and seriousness of the offence the attitude and psychological conditions of the suspect
無論任何人就任何事件如何定性，均不影響律政司根據《基本法》第六十三條進行刑事檢控工作。
Irrespective of how an incident is defined by any person it will not affect DoJ in discharging its prosecutorial duties in accordance with Article 63 of the Basic Law

For this reason it is imperative to look ahead and make a fresh start as this is also what the people want
我要在此一再重申，特區政府已經完全停止《逃犯條例》的修例工作，我們亦清楚表明，當現屆立法會會期在明年7月結束時，《2019年逃犯及刑事事宜相互法律協助法例條例草案》便會自動失效。
I would like to reiterate once again here that the SAR Government has completely stopped the work on amending the Fugitive Offenders Ordinance . We have also clearly stated that the Fugitive Offenders and Mutual Legal Assistance in Criminal Matters Legislation Amendment Bill 2019 the Bill will automatically lapse in July next year when the current legislative term ends

I also hope we can put behind our animosity and join hands once again for this vibrant international metropolis that has always been known for its good law and order
我在11月7日答辯當天已作詳細說明，但我想在此扼要再重申數點，因為剛才數位議員都提出一些關注。
I offered a detailed explanation in my reply on 7 November but I would like to briefly reiterate a few points as some Members have raised their concerns just now
他在法律年度開啟禮時清晰傳遞這一信息。
He clearly conveyed this message at the Ceremonial Opening of the Legal Year
這些因素全都會影響審訊時間。
These factors will all affect the time taken to hear the case
最後，關於資源方面，我想讓議員放心。
Finally with regard to resources Members can rest assured
司法機構無論需要甚麼人手、資源，我們一向都會完全滿足其要求。
Regardless of what manpower or resources the Judiciary requires we have all along fully catered for its needs
法案委員會舉行了3次會議，對《條例草案》的條文作出詳細及深入的討論，並普遍支持有關修訂。
The Bills Committee has held three meetings at which detailed and in - depth discussions were conducted on the provisions of the Bill with general support for the amendments
在昨天和今天，法案委員會主席梁美芬議員也詳細解釋法案委員會在審議《條例草案》期間關注到的其他事宜，而政府和司法機構已作出相應的回應。
Yesterday and today Dr Priscilla LEUNG Chairman of the Bills Committee also explained in detail other issues of concern raised in the course of the scrutiny of the Bill and the Government and the Judiciary also responded to them accordingly
政府和司法機構採取了多項措施以鼓勵更多合適的人才成為法官或司法人員。
The Government and the Judiciary have adopted a number of measures to encourage more suitable talents to serve as Judges and Judicial Officers
這些措施包括定期進行香港法律執業者收入基準研究，以檢視司法人員的薪酬。
These include a Benchmark Study on the Earnings of Legal Practitioners in Hong Kong conducted on a regular basis to review judicial pay
截至2019年10月中，已任命合共5名高等法院原訟法庭法官及5名區域法院法官。
As of mid - October 2019 a total of five CFI Judges and five District Judges were appointed
第一，有議員提出法庭處理刑事案件需時是否過長的看法，亦有議員建議司法機構應考慮成立24小時運作的特別法庭，以加快處理與近期事件有關的案件。
First some Members have queried whether the processing time at criminal courts is excessively long and some have also suggested that the Judiciary should consider setting up special courts operating on a round - the - clock basis to speed up the processing of cases related to recent incidents
我亦感謝所有持份者、有關團體及人士向法案委員會就《條例草案》表達的意見。
I also owe all stakeholders the relevant deputations and individuals my gratitude for their expression of views on the Bill to the Bills Committee
事實上，近日有多宗涉及大量被告人的案件被帶到裁判法院提堂，法院已經作出彈性安排，在有需要時審訊會在法庭正常的辦公時間以外進行，直至晚上。
In fact in response to a number of recent cases where a large number of defendants were brought before the Magistrates Courts the Courts have been exercising flexibility to conduct court hearings beyond the normal court hours into late evenings on a need basis
如案件未能在首度提堂時進行答辯而需押後聆訊，裁判官會嚴格依據《刑事訴訟程序條例》處理被告的保釋申請。
When the case cannot be disposed of at the first appearance and is adjourned for further hearings the Magistrate will deal with a defendants application for bail strictly in accordance with the Criminal Procedure Ordinance
在辯論中，有議員提出幾點具體建議、意見和關注，我想在此逐點作簡單回應。
I wish to briefly respond to the several concrete recommendations and points of view and concerns put forth by Members in the debate one by one
司法機構亦在今年6月24日就有關建議諮詢了立法會司法及法律事務委員會，亦諮詢了業界和相關持份者，政府的時間表是預計在明年即2020年年初提交立法會審議，盡快推展有關修訂。
On 24 June this year the Judiciary also consulted the Panel on Administration of Justice and Legal Services of the Legislative Council as well as the trade and the stakeholders concerned on the relevant proposals . According to the timetable of the Government the relevant amendments are expected to be presented to the Legislative Council for consideration early next year ie . 2020 with a view to taking them forward as soon as practicable
最後，我想澄清或回應的是有關議員對法官工作量的關注。
Lastly I wish to clarify or respond to Members concern over the workload of Judges
如果已經達到法定退休年齡的法官或司法人員基於個人喜好或情況希望承擔較輕的工作量，可以考慮退休後出任暫委法官或司法人員，而非全職法官或司法人員。
If Judges and Judicial Officers reaching the statutory retirement age are looking to take on a lighter workload out of personal preference or circumstances they may consider serving as deputy instead of full - time Judges and Judicial Officers after retirement
法官在此前提下作出司法決定，同時會就其決定提供全面的理據。
Judges will make judicial decisions on such a premise with full justifications for them
如果任何警務人員的行為令大家覺得違規、違法，我已多次說過，可交由一個兩層機制處理，就是投訴警察課和獨立監察警方處理投訴委員會。
If the behaviour of any police officer leads to suspicion of rule or law infringement I have said repeatedly that it can be tackled by a two - tier mechanism that is the Complaints Against Police Office and the Independent Police Complaints Council IPCC
我上午在立法會回答質詢時已很清楚說明，監警會會在明年年初提交初步報告，很清楚將事實鋪陳和交代，讓特區政府可以根據這些事實，決定我們未來所走的方向、向和諧、穩定的社會出發，這全都是很嚴肅的工作。
When replying to a question raised in this Council this morning I made it plain that IPCC would submit a preliminary report early next year to give a clear and detailed account of the facts of the case . The SAR Government could determine the direction ahead upon these facts when making our way towards a harmonious and stable society . These are all very serious work
此外，監警會亦有國際專家組，與本地專家組合作。
Moreover IPCC has an International Expert Panel to work with a local panel of experts
所以我們一向肯定警隊的工作，全力支持警隊嚴正執法、果斷執法。
We recognize the work of the Police Force all along and throw all our weight behind the Force in taking stringent and decisive enforcement action
第二個最新發展就是，民眾安全服務隊會由今天起支援食物環境衞生署、路政署和運輸署。
Another latest development is that the Civil Aid Service will support the Food and Environmental Hygiene Department FEHD the Highways Department HyD and the Transport Department from today onwards
在中大的事件中，警方無疑使用了數量不少的催淚彈，但亦有400個汽油彈由中大的黑衣人擲出。
In the CUHK incidents the Police certainly had used quite a lot of tear gas but there were also 400 petrol bombs hurled by the black - clad people there
大家都要客觀地看這些事實，你使用暴力時，警方一定會用適當的武力回應。
We should view these facts objectively . When you use violence the Police will certainly use an appropriate amount of force in response
現時的香港並不是我們熟悉的香港，是陌生的香港，我們根本不能如常生活和上班，想到立法會開會亦要提早出發、盡早完結。
The Hong Kong today is not the Hong Kong we used to know it is a Hong Kong strange to us . We absolutely cannot live and go to work as usual . Whenever we attend a meeting at this Council we have to set off earlier than usual and finish off as quickly as we can
但大家亦要明白，不能縱容一些犯法的、暴力的行為，因為這樣只會令社會走向絕路。
But we do have to realize that we should not connive at unlawful and violent activities as this will only lead the community to destruction
為釋除公眾疑慮，保安局局長已經在立法會復會後，在10月23日的大會上按行政長官於9月4日提出，正式宣布撤回《條例草案》。
To allay public concerns after commencement of the new legislative session the Secretary for Security officially announced at the Legislative Council meeting on 23 October withdrawal of the Bill as mentioned by the Chief Executive on 4 September
警方的方針是致力取得平衡，一方面盡量為合法及和平的公眾集會及遊行給予便利以助其順利舉行，另一方面亦須致力減低這些活動對公眾及道路使用者的影響，並確保公共秩序和公共安全。
It has been the policy of the Police to endeavour to strike a balance between facilitating the smooth conduct of lawful and peaceful public meetings and processions on the one hand and minimizing the impact of such events on members of the public and road users on the other while ensuring public order and public safety
首先，我必須鄭重指出，立法會議員提出議案委托終審法院首席法官組成獨立的調查委員會，是一件非常嚴肅的事情。
To start with I must solemnly point out that the proposal of a motion by Legislative Council Members to give a mandate to the Chief Justice of CFA to form an independent investigation committee is a very serious matter
主席，就25位泛民議員根據《基本法》第七十三條第九項提出的議案，指控行政長官有嚴重違法或瀆職行為，並拒絕在一個合理時間內辭職，因此委托終審法院首席法官組成獨立的調查委員會，並擔任主席，以調查有關事宜及向立法會提出報告，我謹代表特區政府促請議員否決這項議案。
President 25 pan - democratic Members initiated a motion under Article 739 of the Basic Law charging the Chief Executive with serious breach of law or dereliction of duty and refusal to resign within a reasonable time thus proposing that the Council give a mandate to the Chief Justice of the Court of Final Appeal CFA to form and chair an independent investigation committee to investigate the relevant matters and report its findings to the Legislative Council . On behalf of the Special Administrative Region SAR Government I urge Members to negative this motion
《基本法》第七十三條第九項是嚴肅的憲制程序，並不是某些議員動輒隨便動議的政治工具。
Article 739 is a serious constitutional procedure . It is not a political tool to be casually initiated by certain Members at every turn
特區政府亦已汲取教訓，以最具誠意及最謙卑的態度接受市民批評。
The SAR Government has also learnt the lesson and now receives criticisms from the people in a most sincere and humble manner
在香港，市民依法享有和平集會、遊行和示威的自由，這是毋庸置疑的。
In Hong Kong people undoubtedly enjoy the freedom of peaceful assembly procession and demonstration in accordance with law
警方一直按照法律，以公平、公正和不偏不倚的態度處理公眾集會、遊行和示威。
The Police have all along been dealing with public assemblies processions and demonstrations in a fair just and impartial manner in accordance with the law
主席，警方在使用武力方面有嚴格指引。
President the Police have strict guidelines on the use of force
監警會報告的內容和建議都會公開。
The content and recommendations of the IPCC report will be made public
議員一定要有堅實證據及充分理由證 明行政長官有"嚴重違法"或"瀆職"的行為才可提出。
Members must have solid evidence and sufficient ground which prove the Chief Executive has committed serious breach of law or dereliction of duty before raising such a motion
目的就是希望能夠真真正正檢視過去數月發生社會事件的前因後果，避免重蹈覆轍，加強社會的凝聚力。
It aims at genuinely examining the underlying causes and aftermath of the social incidents happened in the last few months so as to avoid repeating the mistakes and to reinforce social coherence
獨立檢討委員會的工作與監警會的工作可以說是相輔相成的。
The work of the independent review committee and that of IPCC are arguably complementary
主席，這5個多月發生的事，令每一個香港人感到震驚、傷心、焦慮和痛心。
President the incidents happened in these five months or so have left every Hongkonger feeling shocked heart - broken anxious and hurt
政府會對所有違法及暴力行為嚴正果斷執法。
The Government will enforce the law strictly and resolutely with regard to all illegal and violent acts
行政長官和問責團隊會繼續以誠懇、務實及謙卑的態度，秉持以民為本的宗旨，與各位一起努力構建更美好的香港。
The Chief Executive and the political accountability team will continue to adopt a sincere practical and humble attitude and to uphold the people - based principle with a view to building a better Hong Kong with all of you
在此，我亦作出一個誠懇的呼籲，希望全體泛民議員開宗明義與暴力割席，使香港可以回復寧靜。
Here I would also like to earnestly urge all the pan - democratic Members to be upfront in severing ties with violence so as to restore tranquility to Hong Kong
她的手腕嚴重受傷，需要動手術，亦要鑲鋁片。
Her wrist was seriously injured a surgical operation was needed and an aluminium plate was fixed
她已經盡量縮短病假回港，現時已經正式投入工作。
She has already shortened her sick leave as far as possible and has now returned to Hong Kong to resume work
律政司司長到英國純屬公務，絕不是為了私人事務。
The Secretary for Justices visit to the United Kingdom was purely for official duties and definitely not for private purposes
我相信議員亦會同意我們這個做法，要平衡兩方面的需求，處理本港事務固然重要，但對外亦不能夠完全忽視。
I trust Members will also concur with this practice which seeks to strike a balance between the need of both ends . While it is important to deal with local affairs we cannot totally neglect external affairs
她推廣香港作為一個國際仲裁中心的地位，這是很重要的。
It is a very important task to promote Hong Kong as an international arbitration centre
主席，首先，在我正式回應郭榮鏗議員的議案前，我要澄清數點。
President first of all I have to clarify a few points before formally respond to Mr Dennis KWOKs motion
大家不要有任何猜測，亦不要抹黑司長出席一個為香港拼搏的公務活動。
Please do not speculate nor smear the Secretary for Justices attendance of an official function for the benefits of Hong Kong
事實上，司長去年在履行相關責任後已辭去這些外間職務，而特區政府及律政司司長亦已清楚公開交代。
In fact the Secretary for Justice had resigned from these outside undertakings last year after completing the relevant responsibilities . The Government of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region and the Secretary for Justice have also given a clear and open account of the matter
主席，我們認為，郭榮鏗議員提出的議案沒有足夠理據及基礎。
President we consider that Mr Dennis KWOKs motion lacks sufficient justifications
我強調，這些用詞絕對不恰當，亦全無根據及帶有侮辱性，不能接受。
I stress that this term is definitely inappropriate totally groundless and derogatory thus it is unacceptable
正如我在開場發言所述，在政治委任制度下，主要官員的任何外間工作均須符合主要官員的《服務條件說明書》及《政治委任制度官員守則》的相關規定。
As I said in my opening remark under the Political Appointment System any outside undertaking of principal officials is subject to relevant requirements stated in the Memorandum on Terms and Conditions for Employment as Principal Officials and the Code for Officials under the Political Appointment System
律政司司長在上任時已按既定機制獲得行政長官批准，在上任後短暫時間繼續處理若干外間事務，包括6宗國際仲裁個案。
The Secretary for Justice had already secured the Chief Executives consent via the established mechanism upon taking office for her to continue handling certain outside undertaking including the six international arbitration cases within a limited period of time after her assumption of office
這些短暫的職務並無影響我強調，並無影響司長執行公務，亦沒有構成任何利益衝突。
The short - term undertakings will not affect―I emphasize will not affect―the Secretary for Justices discharging of public duties and will not constitute any conflict of interests
所有法官及司法人員，不論國籍我強調不論國籍在執行司法工作時，均會獨立並嚴格地依法行使司法權。
All judges and judicial officers must regardless of their citizenship―I must stress the words regardless of their citizenship―exercise their judicial power independently and strictly in accordance with the law in the administration of justice
讓我代表特區政府重申，法治和司法獨立須由全港市民共同維護，任何人即使對法庭裁決有不同意見，亦不應該以任何方式向法官及司法人員或法庭施壓，甚或作出人身攻擊，以免影響法院按法律理據、不偏不倚地作出裁決。
Let me reiterate on behalf of the SAR Government that both the rule of law and judicial independence must be upheld by all people in Hong Kong . Anyone who takes different views on the court rulings should not exert pressure on the judges and judicial officers or the courts by any means or even launch personal attacks so as to avoid affecting the courts in making judgments impartially according to the legal grounds
近日有些人士認為應成立獨立監察司法人員的委員會，或引入司法機構以外人士處理針對法官及司法人員行為的投訴。
Recently some people have proposed the establishment of an independent judiciary monitoring committee or the introduction of people other than those from the Judiciary to handle complaints against the conduct of judges and judicial officers
自回歸以來，香港的法治和司法獨立在國際上備受推崇，剛才很多議員也有提到這點。
Since its return to China Hong Kong has won international accolade in terms of the rule of law and judicial independence . Many Members have just referred to this point
如訴訟各方認為判刑過輕或過重，均可提出上訴或申請覆核刑罰。
Where sentences are regarded as being inadequate or excessive the parties can appeal or apply for a review of sentence
這些元素一直受《基本法》保障。
These elements have long been safeguarded by the Basic Law
特區政府對法治和司法獨立的承擔和重視可以說是毋庸置疑及有目共睹的。
The SAR Governments commitment to and the importance it attaches to the rule of law and judicial independence are beyond doubt and obvious to everyone
這些非常任普通法法官所屬的司法管轄區均為與香港的法律體制最近似的普通法適用地區。
The jurisdictions to which these CLNPJs belong are all common law jurisdictions having a legal system that has the closest affinity to that of Hong Kong
至於其他普通法適用地區如新加坡和馬 來西亞等，在法律制度上，與香港的差距相對較大。
The legal systems in other common law jurisdictions such as Singapore and Malaysia have relatively greater differences from that of Hong Kong
儘管如此，如有具備適當的司法和專業才能的人選，來自上述所有其他普通法適用地區的法官亦會獲考慮。
Nevertheless judges from all the above common law jurisdictions will be considered if candidates with suitable judicial and professional qualities are identified in such jurisdictions
