我亦呼籲市民要對謠言提高警覺，密切留意政府發放的澄清信息，避免被這些謠言誤導。
I would also urge the public to be alert to rumours and closely aware of the clarification messages issued by the Government so as to avoid being misled by such rumours
所以，主席，就編號99的修正案而言，我不會說明修正案的目的，即我不會讀出括號內的文字，但我應該要完全讀出："為削減分目103而將總目122削減82,000,000元"，對嗎？
Therefore Chairman with regard to Amendment No . 99 I shall not state the objective of the amendment meaning that I shall not read out the wordings in the brackets but I have to read out in full That head 122 be reduced by 82,000,000 in respect of subhead 103 am I right?
主席，我想追問特首，退一萬步來說，她可否告訴司長，請她重新考慮不尋求外判大律師的決定？
President let me put a further question to the Chief Executive . Disregarding other considerations can she only ask the Secretary for Justice to reconsider the decision of not seeking the advice of fiat counsels?
然而，施政報告公布的措施，包括香港國際機場與珠海機場合作興建國際航空學院、發展航天城和航天走廊等項目，都只是把目光放在香港國際機場的長遠發展。
However regarding the initiatives announced in the Policy Address including the construction of the Hong Kong International Aviation Academy by the Hong Kong International Airport HKIA and the Zhuhai Airport the development of the SKYCITY and the Airport City Link etc they just focus on the long - term development of HKIA
我同意香港需要鞏固現有的優勢，包括國際航空樞紐的地位。不過，受到疫情衝擊，香港機場的業務至今未見復蘇，因此當務之急應該是為業界提供應急支援。
I agree that Hong Kong needs to consolidate its existing advantages including its status as an international aviation hub
至於陸頌雄議員的修正案，儘管修正案的建議擴闊了失業援助的範圍，但我作為勞工界議員，原則上會支持任何有助弱勢社群改善生活的措施，所以，兩項修正案我都會支持。
Mr LUK Chung - hungs amendment extended the scope of the unemployment assistance . As a Member of the labour sector I in principle support any measures that help improve the livelihood of the disadvantaged . Therefore I will support both amendments
要在經濟上援助失業僱員大概有數種模式：一是失業援助金；此外是失業保險，以至現時政府首次推出的失業貸款，但無論選擇哪種模式，援助失業僱員都要付出成本，直接的失業援助金要動用公帑，要整個社會共同承擔；而失業保險則涉及僱員及僱主供款。
Financial support to the unemployed generally comes in several forms first unemployment assistance; second unemployment insurance and then unemployment loan that the Government has introduced for the first time . No matter which form is chosen there is a cost to pay to support the unemployed . Direct unemployment assistance requires the use of public funds which must be born by the entire society while unemployment insurance involves contributions from both employees and employers
相對而言，失業貸款付出的社會成本較低，並且能協助失業僱員解決經濟上的燃眉之急，儘管有批評者說它有要還款的缺陷。
Relatively speaking unemployment loan incurs a lower social cost and can help the unemployed tide over their urgent financial needs despite being criticized for having the drawback of repayment
不過，我想提出的補充質詢是，政府會否考慮加推消費券，幫助市民渡過現時在疫情下的困境，並藉此提升消費意欲，政府會否就此作進一步考慮呢？
However the supplementary question I would like to raise is Will the Government give further consideration to issuing consumption vouchers thereby assisting citizens to tide over the difficulties amid the current epidemic and boosting consumer sentiment?
主席，大家也知道，隨着資訊科技和社會的發展，以網上平台為勞動力供求雙方提供中介服務的形式越來越普遍，我在2018年已經要求立法會秘書處作相關的政策檢討，秘書處的資料研究組亦在2019年2月完成相關報告，報告列舉了英國和新加坡對這類新興僱用模式提供的一些保障勞工方案。
President we all know that with the development in information technology and society the provision of intermediary services for the supply and demand sides of the labour market via online platforms has become increasingly popular . In 2018 I requested the Legislative Council Secretariat to conduct a relevant policy review . The Research Office of the Secretariat completed the relevant report in February 2019 setting out certain labour protection options introduced in Britain and Singapore for this new mode of employment
我想問局長，政府會否參考這些措施，為保障零工經濟下的平台工作者的權益踏出第一步？
May I ask the Secretary whether the Government will draw reference from these measures and take the first step to protect the rights of platform workers in a gig economy?
局長在主體答覆中指出，遷拆計劃已提供補償安排。
The Secretarys main reply points out that compensation arrangements have already been made under the demolition plan
政府一直不調查，一直不辦事，接着特首表示待監警會的報告完成後，如果社會上有爭議，才予以考慮。
So far the Government has neither launched any inquiry nor has it done anything . Following in its wake the Chief Executive has said that the aforesaid approach will not be taken into consideration unless there is controversy in society about IPCCs report upon its completion
此外，白衣和藍衣人士明顯是有組織襲擊他人，究竟誰是背後的組織者？
In addition white - clad and blue - clad people who attacked others had obviously been coordinated so who had organized them behind the scene?
每逢周末，我收到的假新聞遠遠多於真新聞，我認為這一點在整件事件中佔了一個很主要的部分。
I think fake news plays a key role in the entire incident
自當日開始，大家已各說各話，而當時種下的因，令香港在往後半年變成仇恨之城、暴力之城。
From that day onwards different people have put forward different suggestions . What happened back then had sown the seeds of Hong Kongs conversion into a city of hatred and a city of violence in the following six months
可想而知，現時每日有大量假新聞在流傳。
Conceivably a lot of fake news is being circulated on a daily basis
如政府當時能當機立斷，立即成立COI，事件的範圍會大幅收窄，不會出現其後的"七一"、"七二一"、"八三一"、"九二八"等事件，我也記不清還有多少個數字，這些數字意味着無數個大家需要謹記的日子。
If the Government had acted decisively and immediately set up a COI at that time the incident would have been significantly scaled down and the subsequent 1 July 21 July 31 August 28 September incidents etc would have been avoided . I cannot remember clearly how many other incidents indicated by dates had taken place . These dates mark innumerable important incidents which must be remembered
政府決策過程中出了甚麼問題？
What has gone wrong in the Governments decision making process?
我在完善選舉制度方面的正面立場和爭取了甚麼，社會都很清楚，所以今天沒有甚麼特別事情要追問。
The community is well aware of my positive stance on improving the electoral system and my relevant achievements . Therefore I do not have any special questions on this today
我想問，如果特首將來跟低風險國家或地區當然最重要是包括內地商討疫苗通行時，可否爭取要全部承認現時最普遍、最多 人談及的兩款疫苗？
Here is my question . If the Chief Executive later negotiates the acceptance of vaccine passports with low - risk countries or regions―which certainly include the Mainland on the top of the list―can she fight for the acceptance of the two most popular and most talked about vaccines?
今天，也是自由黨議員提問相關事項，我現在跟進，不知特首又會否反駁？
Today the issue was also brought up by a Member from the Liberal Party . Following it up now I have no idea whether the Chief Executive will refute me again
主席，本年5月，東鐵綫新信號系統在測試期間發生3宗不正常事件。
President in May this year three abnormal incidents happened during the testing of the new signalling system of the East Rail Line EAL
9月11日有報道揭發，信號系統曾於測試期間發生列車"入錯線"事件，但港鐵公司一直未有公布該事件。
It was uncovered by a media report on 11 September that an incident of a train taking the wrong route happened during the testing of the signalling system but MTRCL had not made public the incident all along
如果政府的估算完全不能說服立法會議員......
If the Governments estimation totally fails to convince Members of the Legislative Council
這亦是政府應有的責任，持有港鐵公司七成多的股份，政府會否願意考慮這個方向？
This is also the responsibility of the Government which holds more than 70 % of MTRCL shares . Would the Government be willing to consider this direction?
我們亦已於2016年9月至11月，進行公眾諮詢，聽取市民的意見，市民大致上表示支持或無反對意見。
We also conducted a public consultation exercise to gauge public views on the proposals between September and November 2016 . Members of the public who responded are either generally supportive or have no adverse comment on the proposals
首先，就獲指定進行水管工程的人士而言，根據現行《條例》，水管工程須由持牌水喉匠或水務監督授權的公職人員進行。
Firstly insofar as persons designated for carrying out plumbing works are concerned under the current WWO plumbing works must be carried out by a licensed plumber or a public officer authorized by the Water Authority WA
雖然《條例》用語如此，但持牌水喉匠可由工人協助進行水管工程，這是一貫的政策原意和業界作業模式；而且，如果水管工程只可由持牌水喉匠 親自進行，持牌水喉匠的勞動力需求將遠超於現時的人手供應，而且水管工程的成本亦會因只可聘請持牌水喉匠進行而增加。
Despite the language of the legislation it has been the policy intent and the industry practice that licensed plumbers may be assisted by workers in carrying out the plumbing works . Furthermore if plumbing works can only be carried out personally by licensed plumbers the workforce demand of licensed plumbers will be considerably high and far exceeds the current manpower supply not to mention the consequential increase in the cost of plumbing works
此外，《條例草案》亦將准許其他人士在持牌水喉匠和有關註冊工人的指示和督導下進行水管工程。
Moreover the Bill also allows other persons working under the instruction and supervision of licensed plumbers and relevant registered workers to carry out plumbing works
《條例草案》將訂明上述行政規定，在《條例》中規定所有水管工程許可的申請，須由持牌水喉匠提出，並列明該名持牌水喉匠須為該許可所涵蓋、已完成及不符合《條例》的水管工程負責，以清晰界定持牌水喉匠在《條例》下的職責。
The Bill will formalize the aforementioned administrative requirement by stipulating in WWO that all applications for permission of plumbing works have to be made by licensed plumbers . The Bills also provides that the licensed plumber is to be held responsible for completed plumbing works covered by the permission which does not comply with WWO in order to clearly define the duties of licensed plumbers under WWO
自《條例》於1975年生效後，水管工程的複雜性、技術規定和物料標準，以及業界人員的職務、責任和作業模式，均出現重大變化。
Since WWO came into force in 1975 there have been significant changes in the complexity technical requirements and material standards of plumbing works as well as the duties obligations and practice of industry practitioners
此外，在完成《條例》的全面性檢討後，我們會在適當時候將擬議法例修訂再次提交立法會。
Moreover after completing the holistic review of WWO we will introduce the proposed legislative amendments into the Legislative Council in due course
政府已連續3年超過年度目標。
The Government has exceeded the annual target for three consecutive years
我在此作綜合回應。
Here I will give a consolidated reply
發展棕地自然需要考慮如何處理棕地作業的問題。
The development of brownfield sites naturally requires consideration of how the brownfield operations should be handled
土木工程拓展署正以洪水橋為試點，積極研究將部分棕地作業遷入多層大廈的可行性，希望為這些工業活動提供運作空間之時，更可地盡其用。
The Civil Engineering and Development Department will continue to take Hung Shui Kiu as a pilot case to actively study the possibility of consolidating brownfield operations in multi - storey buildings with a view to providing space for the operation of these industrial activities while optimizing the use of the sites
與此同時，規劃署會於今年就新界棕地分布、使用及作業現況展開全面調查，有助制訂一套全面的棕地政策大綱，探討棕地問題及政策路向。
Meanwhile the Planning Department will commence a comprehensive survey on the distribution uses and operation of brownfield sites in the New Territories this year . This will be conducive to formulating a comprehensive policy framework on brownfield sites so as to examine the brownfield issues and policy directions
房屋土地供應固然重要，但我很同意張宇人議員、李慧琼議員、易志明議員、周浩鼎議員、黃定光議員、邵家輝議員的意見，政府同時要繼續增加經濟用地的供應。
While the supply of housing land is certainly important I very much share the views of Mr Tommy CHEUNG Ms Starry LEE Mr Frankie YICK Mr Holden CHOW Mr WONG Ting - kwong and Mr SHIU Ka - fai that it is also necessary for the Government to continuously increase the supply of sites for economic uses
發展局會繼續配合運輸及房屋局的政策，在不同地點物色合適物流用地，包括在屯門西已預留的兩幅共約 10公頃的用地、洪水橋新發展區已預留的37公頃用地、屯門第40及46區、新界北，以及港珠澳大橋香港口岸人工島的上蓋發展。
The Development Bureau will continue to support the policy of the Transport and Housing Bureau in identifying suitable sites for logistics use in different locations including two sites totalling around 10 hectares in Tuen Mun West and 37 hectares of land in the Hung Shui Kiu NDA reserved for the purpose as well as Tuen Mun Areas 40 and 46 New Territories North and the topside development at the Hong Kong Boundary Crossing Facilities Island of the Hong Kong - Zhuhai - Macao Bridge
中長期方面，各個新發展區和新市鎮擴展項目，預計可提供逾860萬平方米工商業樓面。
In the medium - to - long term it is estimated that NDAs and new town extensions will provide over 8.6 million sq m of industrial and commercial floor area
儘管私人樓宇的維修和保養是業主的責任，但政府亦了解未必所有業主都具備相關專業知識，或他們因偶有所聞的圍標新聞而對大廈維修卻步。
While the responsibility to repair and maintain private buildings rests with the owners the Government understands that not all the owners have the relevant technical expertise or they may be deterred from carrying out repair works at their buildings by the occasional news about bid - rigging
我們預期撥款可惠及約4,500幢樓宇。
We estimate that this provision can benefit about 4 500 buildings
政府現正與市建局商討細節，目標是在本年度第三季實行優惠費用。
The Government is now discussing the details with URA and our target is to implement the concessionary fee in the third quarter of this year
回應一些議員的關注，政府及市建局會加強宣傳工作，包括通過電視、電台播放宣傳片及聲帶、巡迴展覽、為業主立案法團及區議會進行簡介會等，希望各位議員亦可在地區鼓勵有需要的業主組織參加"招標妥"計劃。
In response to the concerns of some Members the Government and URA will step up promotional efforts which include Announcements in the Public Interest on television and radio roadshows and briefings to owners corporations and District Councils . We hope that Members can also encourage owners organizations in need in the districts to participate in the Smart Tender scheme
直至在2007年至2008年間，我們開始推展大型基建工程項目，基本工程開支才逐步上升至2016-2017年度的約850億元，即相等於本地生產總值的3.4%。
With the rolling out of the major infrastructure projects by the Government since 2007 - 2008 the capital works expenditure has gradually increased to about 85 billion in 2016 - 2017 accounting for 3.4 % of GDP
由此 可見，現時基本工程開支的比例只是處於平均水平，我們仍需要在基本工程計劃上努力，為社會多作建設，以彌補過往落後的發展步伐。
From this we can see that the current share of the capital works expenditure is only at the average level . It is still necessary for us to put in efforts for the Capital Works Programme and take forward more development projects for society in order to make up for the lag in the pace of development
在這方面，我們已取得初步成效。
In this respect we have made initial achievements
未來數年，我們仍會繼續投放資源在值得投資的工程項目上，基本工程的開支將會維持在800億元以上的水平。
In the coming few years we will continue to inject resources into works projects worthy of investment . The expenditure on capital works will be maintained at the level of over 80 billion
中長期方面，各個新發展區和新市鎮擴展，加上正在規劃的潛在鐵路物業發展項目，可提供超過22萬個住宅單位。
In the medium - to - long term various new development areas NDAs and new town extensions as well as potential railway property development projects being planned can provide over 220 000 residential flats
工程量劇減的情況也嚴重影響工人培訓和吸引新人入行的成效。
The drastic reduction in the amount of engineering projects has greatly upset the effectiveness of training workers and attracting new recruits
在這方式下，香港實質是向廣東省購買一個水權，保證香港在遇上百年一遇的旱情下仍然有足夠的食水供應。
Under this approach Hong Kong actually procures a water right from Guangdong Province which assures us of an adequate fresh water supply even in times of drought with a return period of one in hundred years
最後，我懇請各位議員以整體社會利益為重，支持盡早通過《2017年撥款條例草案》，令這些措施可以早日落實。
Lastly I urge Members to have regard for the overall interest of society and support the early passage of the Appropriation Bill 2017 to enable these measures to be implemented early
陳議員特別提到舊區的舊樓，如果經視察後業主需要做一些維修工作，但沒有能力去進行有關工作的話，可以怎麼辦呢？
Mr CHAN especially mentioned the old buildings in old districts . After inspection if the owners need to conduct some repair works but cannot afford to do so what can they do?
以發展局轄下的各部門來說，這次我們共創造了6,500個短期職位，當中包括一些政府職位，以及透過現行合約和新的合約安排，向顧問公司或承建商採購服務而能創造的職位。
This time in respect of various departments under the Development Bureau we have created a total of 6 500 temporary jobs including some government positions and also some jobs created from procurement of services from the consultants or contractors through existing and new contract arrangements
主席，妥善保養私人物業基本上是業主的責任，包括定期檢查和維修樓宇的排水系統，以確保排水系統完好無損，締造一個安全和健康的居住環境。
President owners should take primary responsibility for the proper maintenance of their private properties including regular inspection and maintenance of the drainage systems of their buildings to ensure that they are functioning well with a view to creating a safe and healthy living environment
經視察後，如果發現有關排水系統欠妥，屋宇署可根據《建築物條例》向有關業主送達命令，着令其安排所需的進一步勘測及/或修葺工程。
If the drainage systems are found to be defective upon inspection BD may serve orders under the Buildings Ordinance BO to the owners concerned requiring them to arrange necessary further investigations andor repairs
屋宇署亦會聘請36名專業、技術及文職員工推行視察計劃，以及執行《建築物條例》下的跟進工作。
BD will also employ 36 professional technical and clerical staff to implement the inspection scheme and undertake follow - up actions under BO
屋宇署正檢視顧問提交的報告，並會按情況根據《建築物條例》採取適當行動，例如發出渠務修葺令，着令有關業主進行所需的修葺工程。
BD is now reviewing the consultants reports and will take appropriate actions under BO such as issuing drainage repair orders requiring owners concerned to carry out the necessary repair works depending on case circumstances
至於一般商業或工業樓宇的處所，它們均為營運生意之用，一般而言亦較容易透過物業管理自行安排視察。
Commercial or industrial buildings are used for operating businesses . Generally speaking inspection for such buildings could be relatively easily arranged amongst themselves through property management
在防疫抗疫基金下，除了視察計劃外，屋宇署有一系列工作，包括於原先揀選全年300幢樓宇之外，於2020年第三季至2021年第二季額外揀選50幢"樓宇更新大行動2.0"第二類別樓宇，以行使屋宇署的法定權力，在適當的情況下，代業主進行強制驗樓計劃訂明的檢驗及修葺工程；加快處理未獲遵辦的渠管修葺令，以及錯誤接駁排水系統的個案；加強就樓宇滲水個案進行專業調查的效率，以及舉辦更多公眾教育及宣傳活動等。
Apart from the inspection scheme BD under AEF has a series of tasks including to select on top of the original 300 target buildings annually 50 additional Category 2 buildings under the Operation Building Bright 2.0 between third quarter of 2020 and second quarter of 2021 for exercising its statutory power under appropriate circumstances to conduct prescribed inspection and repair works under the Mandatory Building Inspection Scheme in default of the owners concerned; to expedite the discharge of non - compliant drainage repair orders and the cases of misconnection of drainage systems; to enhance the efficiency of professional investigations on cases of water seepage in buildings and to organize more public education and publicity activities etc
就陳議員剛才提到的特定例子，陳議員或許也知道，大埔有一宗個案牽涉到他提及的情況，政府的專家小組現正研究該宗個案的情況；在相關研究完成後，如果發現在渠管設計上有需要進一步修改或改良的地方，我們一定會跟進。
Concerning the specific example just mentioned by Mr CHAN he may also have learnt about a case in Tai Po with a situation similar to what he has described . The expert team from the Government is now studying the details of that case . After the related study is finished and if further alteration or improvement works to the drainage pipes are warranted we will definitely follow up the issue
其實，我們有不同計劃我們亦感謝立法會去年的支持，令相關計劃得以加強。
In fact we have various schemes―we are also grateful to the Legislative Council for its support last year so that the relevant schemes can be enhanced
此外，我剛才亦提到，政府於去年額外投放了20億元至"有需要人士維修自住物業津貼計劃"，該計劃亦適用於這類大廈排水管工程，如果符合資格，每戶可獲得8萬元資助，絕對足夠應付開支。
Besides as I also mentioned earlier last year the Government injected an additional 2 billion into the Building Maintenance Grant Scheme for Needy Owners which is also applicable to the drainage pipe works of this category of buildings . If an owner is eligible he can obtain a subsidy of 80,000 per unit which is definitely sufficient to meet the expenses
油塘工業區內現時有3間領有由環境保護署發出的"指明工序牌照"的混凝土廠，總產量佔全港混凝土供應大約三成之多，目前正供應混凝土予東九龍及將軍澳等的樓宇及基建工程，包括正在興建的啟德體育園。
There are currently three CBPs in the Yau Tong Industrial Area YTIA with Specified Process Licences SPLs issued by the Environmental Protection Department EPD accounting for about 30 % of the total concrete supply in Hong Kong . These CBPs supply concrete for building and infrastructure projects in East Kowloon Tseung Kwan O etc . including the Kai Tak Sports Park under construction
二及三 城市規劃委員會於1998年將油塘工業區內的工業用地由"工業"地帶改劃為"綜合發展區"、"住宅"及"商業"地帶，透過規劃用途的改變，讓土地業權人可以將原有的工業樓宇及用地重建作私人住宅及/或商業用途，以市場力量逐步改變區內的土地用途，發揮土地的最佳潛力，回應社會的發展需要。
2 and 3 The industrial sites in YTIA were rezoned from Industrial to Comprehensive Development Area CDA Residential Group E and Commercial by the Town Planning Board TPB in 1998 . Through the change in land use zonings land owners can redevelop the original industrial buildings and sites for private residential andor commercial uses which will gradually change the land uses of the area through market forces and hence maximize the development potential and meet the development need of society
其實，第137區正是如此，當第137區不需要用作填料庫時，我剛才已指出，如果2027年可以開展大型填海工程，目前填料庫的面積可大幅縮減至不足一成，只用作轉運站。
In fact this is exactly the case of Area 137 . When Area 137 is no longer needed as a fill bank as I have pointed out just now if major reclamation projects can commence in 2027 the area of the existing fill bank can be significantly reduced to be less than 10 % and it will only be used as a transfer station
將來該處會有很多建造工程，正如我剛才所說，我們希望在第137區西北角的混凝土廠2024年可以開始運作，滿足將來發展該區的混凝土需求。
There will be a lot of construction works in the area in the future and as I have said just now we hope that the CBP in the northwest corner of Area 137 will be operational in 2024 to meet the demand for concrete for the future development of the area
將軍澳第137區是一幅有潛力作大規模發展的市區土地。
TKO Area 137 is an urban site with the potential for large - scale development
就此，主席，或者我邀請謝副局長回應，其實政府在這方面下了大量工夫。
In this regard President let me invite Under Secretary TSE to respond and the Government has actually made a lot of efforts in this regard
在經過一段時間研究後，我們認為將軍澳第137區長遠適合發展為以房屋用途為主的新社區，並配以商業、社區及基建配套設施。
Upon some studies we consider that it is suitable to develop TKO Area 137 primarily for housing purpose to establish a new community which will be supported by commercial and community facilities as well as infrastructure in the long term
相關部門現正就初步建議的土地用途方案進行各項技術評估，包括交通及環境影響評估。
Relevant departments are conducting technical assessments on the preliminary recommended land use proposals including those on transport and environmental impact
二 隨着香港的發展及社會需要所進行的建造、改裝、拆卸及挖掘等工程，每年均會產生大量的拆建物料，當中約九成為惰性物料，包括混凝土、瀝青、瓦礫、磚塊、石塊、泥土等，統稱為公眾填料，可以在其他工程中重用，達至有效的資源循環。
2 With the development of Hong Kong and the need of the society to carry out construction renovation demolition and excavation works substantial amount of demolition material is generated every year among which over 90 % are inert materials comprising of concrete asphalt rubbles bricks stones earth etc . Such materials are commonly known as public fill and can be reused in other works projects like reclamation to achieve effective resource circulation
由於一般建設工程不能完全吸納我們產生的可重用拆建物料，所以在未來有大型填海工程開展前，有實際需要維持將軍澳臨時填料庫的運作。
As general construction works cannot fully absorb the reusable construction and demolition materials generated there is an actual need to maintain the TKO temporary fill bank before the commencement of major reclamation projects in future
相關部門在未來幾個月會處理有關用地的續期事宜。
Relevant departments will make arrangements for its extension in the coming few months
因此，混凝土廠選址有地域性考慮。
Therefore the locations of concrete batching plants CBPs entail a geographical consideration
本港多個區域均設有混凝土廠供應混凝土予其鄰近的建造工程使用。
A number of CBPs have been set up in various regions over the territory to supply concrete for the construction projects in nearby areas
擬議混凝土廠將能提供持續及穩定的混凝土供應，支援東九龍和新界東的發展，包括將軍澳第137區將來的建造工程及發展項目，亦可以減少跨區的混凝土運輸。
The proposed CBP will be able to provide a sustainable and stable supply of concrete to support the development of East Kowloon and New Territories East including future construction works and development projects in TKO Area 137 . It can also reduce cross - district transportation of concrete
更重要的是，時間上基本上應該不會重疊。
More importantly there is basically no overlap in periods of time
第137區作為我們儲存惰性物料的地方，至少要運作至2027年，如大家翻看我的主體答覆便看到。
Area 137 where we store inert materials will be operational until at least 2027
第一，兩者相距甚遠。
First the two are very far apart
所以，就其他區而言，我們盡量確保不會有相同情況。
Therefore as far as the other districts are concerned we will try to make sure that there will not be the same situation
感謝盧議員，我們會做，土木工程拓展署已經開展一項全港混凝土供應的研究，目的是檢討現時香港混凝土供應鏈的概況，亦會制訂可行的策略，確保混凝土供應能夠滿足未來樓宇和基建發展的需求。研究範圍包括估算未來各項建築工程所需的混凝土、混凝土 生產技術及物流配套，以及混凝土製造廠的選址布局。
Thank you Ir Dr LO and we will do so . The Civil Engineering and Development Department has commenced a study on concrete supply in Hong Kong which is to review the baseline profile of the current supply chain of concrete in Hong Kong and formulate feasible strategy to ensure the security and stability of concrete supplies to meet projected needs of housing and infrastructure developments including forecasting the demand for all planned development projects reviewing the concrete production and supply technology as well as the logistics arrangements and identifying potential sites at strategic locations suitable for new CBPs
代理主席，我謹此陳辭，支持議案。
With these remarks Deputy President I support the motion
一些舊樓更有"三無"困境，即無法團、無聘用物業管理公司、無適當維修保養，令遵辦指示寸步難行。
Some old buildings are even in a three - nil predicament namely no owners corporations no property management companies and no proper maintenance and it is thus virtually impossible to comply with the directions
在優化現行機制方面，可考慮採取以下措施。
On perfecting the existing mechanism the adoption of the following measures may be considered
