第一，市場上根本沒有足夠的配套和支援。
Firstly there are insufficient complementary and support measures in the market
難道比立法會舉行討論TSA的公聽會，比聆聽家長、相關團體及教育界的心聲更重要嗎？
Is it more important than the public hearing held by the Legislative Council to discuss TSA? . Is it more important than receiving views from parents the organizations concerned and the education sector?
為了這個重要的理由，我一定要站起來，將吳克儉批評得體無完膚。
For this important reason I must stand up and lash out at Eddie NG
我要針對的不是這件事本身，而是這件事反映了某些政府官員行事說話可以如此荒謬、如此無理。
My focus is not the matter itself but the absurdity and senseless it reflects on the part of some public officials in how they speak and how they act
政府只注重自己的官威和面子，就如梁振英所說：TSA可以擱置，但要在7月1日之後由其他人再考慮。
The Government only cares about maintaining its authority or saving its face . As LEUNG Chun - ying put it Even if TSA is to be scrapped it will be someone elses decision after 1 July
這樣明顯是把學生、家長和學校當作"磨心"，關注點完全不是放在教育議題，而是他們的官威和政治角力。
Clearly he is putting students parents and schools in a difficult position . He is not concerned about the education issues involved but about the authority of his administration as well as political wrangling
正如我們所見，不少古物古蹟的保育工作......
As we can see much work for the conservation of antiquities and monuments
普教中在未經任何諮詢的情況下，突然成為中文教學的遠程目標，整個過程完全欠缺透明度。
In the absence of any prior consultation the use of Putonghua to teach the Chinese Language subject has suddenly become the long - term objective of Chinese Language teaching . The whole decision - making process is completely non - transparent
就這兩個教育議題，剛才多位議員也有發言。
A number of Members have already spoken on these two educational issues just now
代理主席，我謹就我對《2017年撥款條例草案》提出的3項修正案發言，當中包括在總目156分目000項下，削減有關基本能力評估的印刷和行政費用73,000,000元，以及另一項與教育局相關的修正案，即在總目156分目000項下削減教育局局長吳克儉3個月薪酬開支預算，相等於895,000元。
Deputy Chairman I would like to speak on the three amendments I have proposed to the Appropriation Bill 2017 including the reduction of the printing and administrative costs for the Basic Competency Assessment BCA by 73 million under subhead 000 of head 156 and another amendment relating to the Education Bureau namely the reduction of the estimated expenditure on three months emoluments of Secretary for Education Eddie NG which is equivalent to 895,000 under subhead 000 of head 156
我希望透過這項修正案，迫使它們進行深刻和深入的改革，更不用說現時由發展局局長出任古物事務監督的安排。
I hope that this amendment will prompt them to conduct profound and in - depth reforms not to mention the reform of the existing role of the Secretary for Development as the Antiquities Authority
可是，法治是否如此簡單？
However is the rule of law that simple?
很多香港人願意相信法庭和法官的形象就如正義女神一樣的蒙着雙眼，一手執天秤，一手執着寶劍，絕不偏私。
In the minds of many Hong Kong people the image of courts and judges should be fair and impartial as that of Justitia who is blind‑folded and holds in one hand the scales and a sword in the other
可是，事實是，香港人已經開始察覺到，即使有獨立的司法機構，亦未必可以保障到公民的自由，以達致一個公平、公正的社會。
However in reality Hong Kong people have started to notice that even if there is an independent Judiciary the civilians freedom may not be safeguarded and a fair and just society may not be attained
我們今天辯論首席法官的任命，而首席法官和法庭是否獨立不受干預，正體現了香港擁有的司法獨立達到甚麼程度。
Today we are debating the appointment of the Chief Justice and whether the Chief Justice and courts are independent and free from interference reflects the extent of judicial independence in Hong Kong
然而，我們今天要投下棄權票，正是因為香港社會的現況不同了。
However we will abstain from voting today because the social situation in Hong Kong has changed
但是，即使如此，如果要市民對法庭、司法獨立有信心，絕大多數的人也不會否認，法官的判詞應該最低限度符合社會主流的期望。
However even so if the public have confidence in the courts and judicial independence most of the people will not deny that the judgments should at least meet the mainstream aspiration of society
一個公正、不受干預的委任法官的程序，對於司法獨立和法治是相當重要。
A fair and interference - free appointment process of judges is essential to judicial independence and the rule of law
我們看到香港法官的司法任命是根據《司法人員推薦委員會條例》，由司法人員推薦委 員會處理。
At present the judicial appointment of judges in Hong Kong is handled by the Judicial Officers Recommendation Commission JORC under the Judicial Officers Recommendation Commission Ordinance
當然，論及法治，行政機關的自我制約相當重要，律政司司長被視為法治把關者、捍衞法治的第一人，但不用我多說，香港市民看到的律政司，已成為破壞法治的第一人。
The Secretary of Justice is regarded as the gatekeeper for the rule of law and the foremost defender of the rule of law . Yet needless to say in the eyes of Hong Kong people the Department of Justice has become the foremost destroyer of the rule of law
它在很多案件中對反對者作出政治檢控，而且包庇一些官員及支持政府的人，包括不就警暴作出檢控和包容警暴，例子多得罄竹難書，我不在此一一說出了。
The Department of Justice has instituted political prosecutions against those who oppose the Government and harboured some officials and people in support of the Government including not instituting prosecutions on police brutality and tolerating police brutality . These examples are countless . I will not point them out one by one
我們投下棄權票算是一種破格的做法，目的是要向全香港市民，更要向法律界、司法機構響起一個重要的警號，就是香港人的法治是危在旦夕，相信很多市民也覺得法治已死。
Our abstention can be regarded as an unprecedented step to sound an alarm to Hong Kong citizens and more importantly to the legal and judiciary sector that the rule of law for Hong Kong people is in peril . I believe many citizens also feel that the rule of law is dead
這做法無疑是將香港的司法獨立置於一個萬劫不復之地。
If this practice is adopted Hong Kongs judicial independence will be doomed eternally
不論是透過書面查詢、審議財政預算案的提問、事後引用《公開資料守則》，又或向申訴專員投訴，法院都不肯提供有關資料。
The Judiciary refused to provide such information even after I had made written enquiries made request when examining the Budget invoked the Code on Access to Information and complained to The Ombudsman
如果香港奉行普通法，按照《基本法》繼續沿用的制度，但連政府、司法機構及立法會議員也說沒有制衡的角色、沒有三權分立，不再互相制衡，這會令香港在國際上蒙羞，是所有奉行普通法地方最大的蒙羞。
While Hong Kong still practises common law and adopts the system under the Basic Law the Government the Judiciary and Legislative Council Members declare that separation of power or checks and balances do not exist . Consequently Hong Kong will be disgraced internationally and this will be the greatest disgrace for all the places practising common law
我希望整個社會，包括司法機構、律政司及所有法律界的執業人員以此為鑒，我們將會就這議案投下棄權票。
I hope that the whole community including the Judiciary the Department of Justice and all practitioners in the legal sector will learn a lesson . We will abstain from voting on this motion today
繼續履行職責，不少於一年，直至第七屆立法會任期開始為止。
to discharge duties for not less than one year until the seventh term of office of LegCo begins
就此，我的補充質詢是：政府是否怕輸，是否懼怕民意在"反送中"運動後一面倒支持民主派，害怕民主派會在議會取得"35+"的過半數議席？
The only restriction was disallowing members of the public to vote or take part in an election depriving them of their most fundamental voting right . In this connection my supplementary question is Is the Government afraid of losing and worried that the overwhelming public support for the democratic party after the Anti - extradition to China movement might give us a 35 majority in the Council?
梁議員，我完全沒有"加鹽加醋"。
Mr LEUNG I had absolutely not added colour to my remarks
主席，如果這是正式會議，梁頌恆議員沒有資格參加這個會議。
Chairman Mr Sixtus LEUNG is not qualified to attend if we are holding a formal meeting now
當政府需要動用"櫃桶底的錢"時，而特首剛才一再提及，容許工商界售 賣工商鋪來套現救急時，為何政府不讓市民用自己"櫃桶底"的一點金錢來解燃眉之急，渡過這數個月的困境呢？
When the Government needs to take money out of the bottom of the drawer and people from the business sector are also allowed as just repeatedly mentioned by the Chief Executive to sell their commercial premises in order to address their urgent liquidity needs why does the Government not allow citizens to cope with their urgent needs and tide over the difficulties in these few months by taking some money out of the bottom of their own drawers?
然而，我真正想討論的是，大搜捕已經開始。
However what I really want to discuss is that mass arrests have begun
很多同事評批政府做事後知後覺，缺乏前瞻性，未能針對性地處理問題，其中包括現在最熱門關於vaccine的議題。
Many colleagues criticized the Government for its belated awareness lack of foresight and failure to address issues in a targeted manner including the vaccine problem the most heated topic of late
也許在發表施政報告時疫苗尚未有出現，所以施政報告中只有一段提及疫苗，但恐怕真的不足夠。
Perhaps vaccine was not available when the Policy Address was delivered that is why there is only one paragraph on vaccine in the Policy Address . I am afraid this is not enough
我剛才亦提過，希望政府在這方面更具前瞻性，要走在疫情之前，而不是在很多事情發生後才作出應變。
As I have also mentioned earlier on I hope that the Government can be more forward - looking in this regard . It should get ahead of the epidemic rather than make changes after many things have happened
因此，官員往往只是猜測，而不知如何真正做到既迎合中央政府的思維、信息及期望，亦能夠令香港市民接受、相信及信服，並以適當的語言作為中央的橋樑。
Therefore public officers are only guessing most of the time . They have not only failed to genuinely cater to the mindset messages and expectations of the Central Government but also failed to win the acceptance trust and confidence of Hong Kong people and serve as a bridge with the Central Government by using the appropriate language medium
我曾經大不諱地在施政報告出台後的首次行政長官答問會上向特首指出，這份報告只有願景而沒有現景，有將來式卻沒有現在式。
At the first Question and Answer Session after the delivery of the Policy Address I directly pointed out to the Chief Executive that this Policy Address merely focused on vision but disregarded the present situation; it only had future tense but no present tense
我留意特首無論在施政報告提到疫情時也好，或在答問會上也好，經常強調我們要基於數據和科學。
I notice that when the Chief Executive talked about the epidemic in the Policy Address or at the Question and Answer Session she often stressed that actions should be taken based on data and science
如果她過分害怕政治當然，大家也知道這可能不是真的如此"乾淨"及不敢談政治，這樣一定會出事。
If she is so afraid of politics―we all know that this may not be the case―if she wants to be clean and dares not talk about politics this will certainly give rise to problems
這又要回到陳克勤議員剛才提及"損上益下"的問題。
This goes back again to the concept of the superiors get less to benefit the inferiors mentioned by Mr CHAN Hak - kan earlier on
有會計界人士預測，政府如不加推紓困措施，本港經濟恐進一步下 行，破產、清盤個案本年8月將達至高峰，按年大升兩三成。
Some members of the accounting sector have predicted that if the Government does not implement additional relief measures the economy of Hong Kong may fall further with bankruptcy and winding up cases reaching a peak in August this year and registering a huge year - on - year increase of 20 % to 30 %
主席，特首，我上次在特首答問會上曾經提及，元朗的17億元天橋項目，凸顯了香港現時很多基建工程功能單一化，整體規劃和以人為本方面考慮不周，變成以路為本、以橋為本，無法做到特首倡議的"共建宜居城市"。
President Chief Executive in the last Chief Executives Question and Answer Session I mentioned that the 1.7 billion footbridge project in Yuen Long reflected that presently many infrastructure projects in Hong Kong served only one single function . Besides due consideration has not been given to the overall planning of the projects to make them people - oriented consequently the projects are road - oriented or footbridge - oriented failing to meet the objective of developing a liveable city as advocated by the Chief Executive
十分感謝特首如此正面的回應，我相信在特首的領導之下，一定會做出更好的成績。
I am very grateful to the Chief Executive for giving us such a positive response . I believe that under her leadership we can surely achieve better results
我今天提出的質詢亦跟橋有點關係。
My question today also concerns bridges
特首認為資審會在這麼短時間內審查這麼多有意參選的人士，會否有機會因為急而有漏網之魚，以致選出一些不是愛國愛港的人士？
Does the Chief Executive think there is a chance for CERC to fail to screen out some candidates who do not love the country and Hong Kong due to hasty assessment of a great number of people wishing to run for elections within a short period of time?
代理主席，近日有政界人士公開批評Facebook等社交媒體未有努力阻止假資訊、假新聞的傳播，效果等同殺人。
Deputy President recently a politician openly criticized social media such as Facebook for not making enough efforts in stopping the spread of disinformation and fake news saying that the effect is equivalent to killing people . The person in question is not a public officer of the SAR Government
除着《香港國安法》成功實施，令香港止暴制亂，由亂至治，相關"黑暴"假新聞已失去平台和市場，但取而代之的是有關新冠疫情的假消息，包括指稱政府透過各類防疫措施來監控市民、盜取港人的出行以至基因資料、貶低國產疫苗的安全性等。
The successful implementation of the National Security Law for HKSAR has stopped violence and curbed disorder in Hong Kong . With the return of law and order fake news associated with the black - clad violence has lost its platform and market . However what followed is the fake news on the Coronavirus Disease epidemic including allegations that the Government has monitored people through its measures on epidemic prevention and that it has stolen the information on the movements and DNA of Hong Kong people as well as allegations disparaging the safety of the vaccines produced in the Mainland
其目的同樣是製造恐慌，分化社會，削弱香港的防疫抗疫成效，令中港遲遲未能通關，經濟難以復蘇，市民無法過正常生活。
The purpose is also to create fear divide society and weaken the effectiveness of the anti - epidemic efforts in Hong Kong thereby delaying the reopening of the boundary between Hong Kong and the Mainland and making it difficult for the economy to revive and for Hong Kong people to return to their normal life
所以，我對於葛珮帆議員今天提出的"立法打擊網上虛假資訊"議案，原則上我是支持的。
So I support in principle the motion on Enacting legislation to combat false information on the Internet proposed by Ms Elizabeth QUAT today
事實上，很多聲稱很着重人權和自由的國家， 亦有林林總總的法律打擊假資訊。
In fact many countries which claim to have great respect for human rights and freedom also have all sorts of laws to combat false information
統籌跨政策範疇工作，處理跨政策局的協調，現時主要由政務司司長和財政司司長負責。
Currently inter - bureaux coordination and the work straddling different policy areas are mainly handled by the Chief Secretary for Administration and the Financial Secretary
各項建議，我都是認同及支持的。
All these proposals are agreeable to me and have my support
據報重組的方向，會包括今次議案提出成立的文化、體育及旅遊局。
It is reported that the directions of the restructuring would include the establishment of a Culture Sports and Tourism Bureau as proposed in this motion today
政府在這方面的工作，我覺得尚有很大的提升空間。
To me there is still considerable room for the Government to enhance its efforts in this aspect
要做到大幅減排，兩間電力公司的配合不可或缺。
Cooperation of the two power companies is indispensable for a substantial reduction in emissions
早前兩電推出上網電價計劃，鼓勵市民安裝太陽能發電板，把所產生的電力賣給它們獲取收益，這做法都應該有助減排。
The two power companies previously introduced the Feed - in Tariff Scheme which incentivizes members of the public to install solar panels and profit from the sale of the electricity generated . This will probably be helpful in reducing emissions too
所以，政府應該加強推廣，令更多樓宇大廈都能夠普及安裝和使用可再生能源系統。
Therefore the Government should step up its publicity efforts for more widespread installation and use of renewable energy systems at buildings
因此，如何節能減排非常重要。
For this reason how to save energy and reduce emissions is a matter of great importance
剛才局長都說了，政府除了以身作則，帶頭採用更多電動車，亦不應該過分側重、單一地推廣私家車的電動化及普及化。
As mentioned by the Secretary just now apart from setting an example by taking the lead in using more electric vehicles the Government should also refrain from focusing excessively and singly on promoting electrification of private cars and their popularization
同時，提供完善的集體公共運輸系統，促使市民多 使用作出行之用，另外以步行當車，減少市民使用私家車出行，都有助降低碳排放，提升空氣質素。
Meanwhile there should be a well - planned mass transport system in place so that people will be more inclined to use public transport for commuting and to walk instead of driving . With fewer people using private cars for commuting carbon emissions will in turn be reduced and air quality will be improved
主席，你也知道，防疫工作宜快不宜慢，在提升視察工作上，時間很重要。
President you also know that anti - epidemic work should be done and the sooner the better . In the enhancement of inspection work time is a very significant element
所以，對於青年學生認識國家而言，最好是讓他們親身前往考察及體驗，令他們更熟悉國家的最新發展及民生方面的改善情況。
Hence the best way for young students to know the country is to visit the country to get first - hand experience so that they can be more familiar with the latest developments in the country and the improved livelihood of its people
代理主席，局長剛才在主體答覆表示資源是足夠的，亦很着重質素。
Deputy President the Secretary said earlier in the main reply that the resources are sufficient and they also attach importance to quality
政府這方面是否有做到呢？
Has the Government done that in this respect?
我很希望主席考慮兩點，首先，希望你要求秘書處現在解答大部分議員剛才提出的兩個問題：第一，他們如何核實這位候選人沒有外國居留權。
I earnestly hope that the Chairman can consider two points . To begin with I hope you will request the Secretariat to answer right now the two questions raised by the majority of Members earlier First how do they verify that the candidate in question does not have foreign right of abode?
我絕對同意楊岳橋議員剛才所說，希望可以將這個會議或主席選舉押後，只要一星期便能夠解決問題，難道大家無法再等待一星期？
I definitely support the suggestion made by Mr Alvin YEUNG just now that is to postpone this meeting or the President election . We just need a week to resolve all the problems . Cant we wait one more week?
在一個莊嚴的議會，對於立法會主席的選舉，秘書處竟然沒有核實這個人究竟有否其他國家的居留權，甚至報名表格上也沒有要求他作出任何聲明，說明自己沒有外國居留權。
In such a solemn Council it is surprising that the Secretariat has not verified whether the candidate for the office of President has a right of abode in other country . It has not even requested the candidate to make a statement declaring that he does not have foreign right of abode
最初我留意這方面是因為港珠澳大橋的意外導致有工人離世。
It was the accident at the Hong Kong - Zhuhai - Macao Bridge which claimed the lives of workers that first drew my attention to this respect
今早，我們已經把閣下提供的資料交給民航處處長跟進了。
And the information submitted by you has already been referred to the Director - General of Civil Aviation for follow - up this morning
過往民航處的人手的確非常短缺，前線空管人員經常要超時工作。
Undeniably CAD has been seriously understaffed and the frontline ATCOs have been working overtime
所以，對於空管人員而言，民航處不能無止境地要求他們加班，這是不可行的。
Hence it is simply infeasible to ask the ATCOs to work overtime indefinitely
這不單關乎民航處，早前就海事處進行討論時，我都作出類似的評論，兩個部門有些東西非常接近，大家應該互相借鏡。
This applies not only to CAD but also the Marine Department . We had a similar discussion on the Marine Department earlier . The two departments are in fact very similar in many aspects and they should draw reference from each other
主席，你的裁決，我會尊重，但你也不可不尊重我這15分鐘的發言時間。
Chairman I respect your ruling . Yet you should also respect my 15 - minute speaking time
這建基於兩個考慮，第一，是程序問題。
This is based on two considerations . First it is the consideration of procedure
首先，是出生，每個家庭也期盼小朋友的來臨，但大家知道現時香港的分娩假期仍然維持在10周，與很多地方相比，我們非常落後。
Every family looks forward to the arrival of babies . Yet we all know that the maternity leave in Hong Kong is still capped at 10 weeks . In comparison with other places Hong Kong is lagging far behind them on this count
又或政府部門如何可令各人更完整或舒服點地度過他們的人生呢？
Or how can government departments facilitate people in leading a complete life or a comfortable life?
他提到講稿附錄II的註釋註明：《議事規則》第693條訂明，修正案的動議格式為"為削減分目......子目......而將總目......
He mentioned the footnotes in Appendix II to the Script which stated that According to Rule 693 of the Rules of Procedure an amendment moved shall take the form of the motion That head be reduced by in respect of subhead item
我想問，那個人拿着一箱水，怎會有死亡或嚴重受傷的威脅？
May I ask how the person holding a box of bottled water could impose the threat of death or serious injury?
那位女士又做了甚麼，對警察造成甚麼威脅？
What had the woman done to impose threats to the Police?
對於《日內瓦指引》，李家超局長會否說："我們實行'一國兩制'，與日內瓦有何關係？
Regarding the Geneva Guidelines Secretary John LEE may say How are we related to Geneva as we implement one country two systems?
我做資料搜集時發現，如果以今天的尺度來說，"六一二"事件差不多每逢周六都發生。
I find in the course of collecting information that when measured against the yardstick adopted today incidents similar to the 12 June incident happen almost every Saturday
整件事一開始有103萬香港人上街，反對"送中惡法"。
At the very beginning of the incident 1.03 million Hong Kong people took to the streets to oppose the evil China extradition bill
政府不但漠視，更立即表示會如期在6月12日由立法會作出表決，因而觸發數萬人包圍立法會的大型事件。
The Government ignored public views and immediately announced that the Legislative Council would vote on the related bill on 12 June as scheduled thus triggering a large - scale incident with tens of thousands of people surrounding the Legislative Council Complex
根據國際人權標準的權威聯合國的說法雖然有人會說我提到聯合國是勾結外國勢力"執法人員使用武力和火器的基本原則"列明，執法人員應確保任何受傷或有關人員盡早得到援助和醫護。
According to the United Nations the authority on international human rights standards―though some would say that I colluded with foreign forces when I refer to the United Nations―the Basic Principles on the Use of Force and Firearms by Law Enforcement Officials specify that law enforcement officials should ensure that assistance and medical aid are rendered to any injured or affected persons at the earliest possible moment
警方的做法明顯有違國際標準。
The Polices practice has obviously violated international standards
警察最重要的工作是拘捕犯人，制服所謂的暴徒，不理會所謂的暴徒是一名年輕人。
The most important task of the Police is to arrest lawbreakers and subdue the so - called rioters regardless of whether the so - called rioter is a young man
稅收是政府財政的根本，相信大家都明白政府"無財不行"的道理，作為財政司司長，我需要確保有穩定和足夠的稅收，支持政府龐大的開支和社會服務；我更希望利用稅務政策，支持產業發展，為香港創富，這正是我成立稅務政策組的原因。
Tax revenue is the foundation of government finances and I believe we all understand the concept that money is essential for the operation of the Government . It is necessary for me as the Financial Secretary to ensure that the tax revenue is stable and sufficient to support the huge amount of government expenditure and provision of social services; I further wish to support the development of industries and create wealth for Hong Kong by utilizing tax policies which is exactly my reason for establishing a tax policy unit
本月初，我和同事分別與會計界和商界的朋友進行"腦震盪"，討論稅務政策組的工作和再工業化的策略。
My colleagues and I have respectively conducted brainstorming sessions with members from the accountancy and business sectors early this month to discuss the tasks of the tax policy unit and the strategy for re - industrialization
說到稅務政策組的首要工作，與會的專家一致認為是善用稅務政 策，推動產業和經濟發展。
When it comes to the prime task of the tax policy unit the experts present at the sessions agreed unanimously that tax policies should be utilized properly to promote the development of industries and economy
這方面的工作不能"閉門造車"，我們必須參考國際經驗和趨勢，以及香港的實際情況，因時制宜，並確保新政策既符合國際要求，亦不會被視為"傷害性稅務措施"。
The work in this aspect cannot be undertaken behind closed doors . We must by making reference to the international experience and trend and taking into account the actual situation of Hong Kong formulate policies in the light of the prevailing circumstances and ensure that the new policies are in compliance with international standards without being considered as harmful tax measures
另外，中美兩國元首在4月初會面，同意擬定"貿易百日計劃"，就各項貿易的議題進行協商。
Moreover the heads of state of China and the United States met in early April and agreed to formulate the 100 - day plan on trade to negotiate various trade issues
美國聯邦儲備局在3月決定再次加息，其後市場似乎對加息的憂慮有所減退，美元亦回軟。
Subsequent to the decision made by the Federal Reserve of the United States in March to further raise the interest rate it seems that the market concern about an increase in interest rate has lessened and the United States dollar has also softened
而法國的總統選舉，以至未來數個月的英國及德國大選，選情也備受關注。
Besides the results of the presidential election of France as well as the general elections of the United Kingdom and Germany to be held in the coming few months have induced great concern
今年以來，香港的經濟表現穩中向好。
So far this year the performance of Hong Kong economy has been steady with positive momentum
零售業銷貨量在今年首兩個月按年下跌3.6%，跌幅大致與去年第四季的3.7%相若。
The volume of retail sales declined by 3.6 % year on year in the first two months of this year and the rate of decline is similar to the rate of 3.7 % in the fourth quarter of last year
在政府各個部門的努力下，在3月底，未來3至4年的住宅潛在供應已升至96,000個住宅單位的紀錄新高，比本屆政府上任時增加了50%。
As a result of the efforts made by various government departments the potential supply of residential units in the coming three to four years reached a record high of 96 000 units in late March which indicates an increase of 50 % since the inauguration of the current - term Government
綜合各個來源，包括政府賣地、鐵路物業發展項目、市區重建局項目及私人重建發展項目等，今個財政年度的房屋土地供應更可供興建單位約32,000個，遠高於每年私人房屋土地供應目標的18,000個單位。
With various sources combined such as Government land sale railway property development projects projects of the Urban Renewal Authority and private redevelopment and development projects the land supply for housing in this financial year actually has a capacity to provide about 32 000 flats far exceeding the target of providing 18 000 flats by land supply for private housing each year
因此，過去數年住宅供求偏緊的情況不會重現，樓市面對的風險正在加大。
Therefore the tight demand - supply situation in the residential property market over the past few years will not recur and the risk in the property market is increasing
總括而言，外圍環境年初以來繼續改善，香港近月的經濟指標亦大致向好。
All in all the external environment has continued to improve since the beginning of this year and the economic indicators of Hong Kong in recent months are generally positive
