主席，2019冠狀病毒病是全球前所未見的病毒，傳染性非常高，疫情變化迅速。
President Coronavirus Disease - 2019 COVID - 19 is an unprecedented virus which is highly contagious and fast - spreading and the outbreak situation is evolving rapidly
有關修正案提出削減大約相當於漁護署用於動物進行人道處理的全年預算開支，以及用於捕捉和處理流浪動物相關工作人員的開支，我必須指出有關修正案是會嚴重影響漁護署在管理這方面的工作，亦可能令這問題更為嚴重。
The sum to be reduced as proposed in the relevant amendments is almost equivalent to the estimated full - year expenditure of AFCD in the euthanasia of animals as well as the relevant staff expenditure in catching and managing stray animals . I have to point out that the relevant amendments will seriously affect AFCD in performing the management duties in this area which may even aggravate the problem
另一方面，有議員提出修正案，以削減"總目49―食物環境衞生署"不同項目的開支，政府亦反對這些修正案。食環署的工作範疇涵蓋重要的民生服務，包括清潔的服務、公眾街市及小販管理、防治蟲鼠蚊患、管理公廁、各項牌照服務，以及管理公眾墳場及火葬場等。
On the other hand some Members proposed to reduce various expenditures under Head 49―Food and Environmental Hygiene Department FEHD
政府採取多管齊下的方法，促進動物的福利，在管理流浪動物方面，漁護署做了大量的工作，控制這種情況，以減少可能對公眾引致的問題。
The Government adopts a multi - pronged approach in promoting animal welfare . AFCD has done a lot of work in the management of stray animals in order to put the situation under control and minimize the nuisance caused to the general public
漁護署與多個動物福利團體緊密合作，推動妥善管理動物的信息，以及安排動物領養服務。
AFCD has been working closely with various animal welfare groups to promote the message about proper management of animals as well as the re - homing for animals
以上的措施近年漸見成效，在過去5年，漁護署捕獲的流浪狗和貓的數目分別減少59%和71%。
The above measures have started to bear fruit in recent years . In the past five years the number of stray dogs and cats caught by AFCD has decreased by 59 % and 71 % respectively
被人道處理的狗及貓的數目亦分別下降68%和77%。
The number of these animals euthanized has also decreased by 68 % and 77 % respectively
此外，一般旅客如在有關期間曾在中國以外的地方停留，須在登機前出示預訂在香港指定檢疫酒店房間至少21晚的確認書；而如曾在指明極高風險地區停留的人士，亦將需要額外出示核酸檢測陰性報告。
In addition ordinary travellers who have stayed in places outside China during the said period must provide before boarding confirmation of room reservation in a designated quarantine hotel in Hong Kong for not less than 21 days; and any persons who have stayed at very high - risk places are additionally required to present negative nucleic acid test result for COVID - 19
如有關人士未能出示相關文件，會被禁止登機。
Those who fail to produce the relevant specified documents will be refused to board the flight
我就此作出以下回應。
I would like to respond to their views as follows
後來我們因應疫情轉變再降低至兩個單位，而到最近再將門檻降低。
Subsequently in view of the changes in the epidemic situation we have lowered the threshold to two units and we have further lowered the threshold recently
剛才鄭泳舜議員非常關心油麻地和佐敦小區的強制檢測及"清零"行動，多謝鄭議員的寶貴意見，以及對特區政府這項工作的肯定。
Mr Vincent CHENG has just expressed strong concern about compulsory testing in Yau Ma Tei and Jordan areas and our work to achieve the target of zero infection . We thank Mr CHENG for his valuable advice and his recognition of the work of the SAR Government in this regard
自去年11月以來，我們已做了超過230萬個檢測，成功找出超過4,000名確診者，截斷社區的傳播鏈。
Since November last year we have conducted more than 2.3 million tests from which 4 000 confirmed cases have been identified cutting the transmission chains in the community
有效提升追蹤密切接觸者的效率是追蹤工作中非常重要的一部分，令過程更科學、更專業和更有效率。
Enhancing the efficiency in contact tracing is vital for making the tracing work process more scientific more professional and more efficient
政府已成立一個由政務司司長領導的跨部門小組，檢視業務流程和優化追蹤接觸者的工作，在可行情況下多用科技，並安排額外人手參與有關工作，務求盡快找出密切接觸者及其他接觸者，進行病毒檢測及檢疫。
The Government has set up an inter - departmental group led by the Chief Secretary for Administration to review workflow and enhance contact tracing make use of technology where practicable and deploy additional manpower to take part in the relevant work with a view to expeditiously identifying close contacts and other contacts for virus testing and quarantine
今年1月中開始，約100名來自不同紀律部隊，包括警務處、海關和入境事務處人員，會參與支援密切接觸者追蹤的工作。
Starting from mid - January this year about 100 officers from various disciplined forces including the Police Force the Customs and Excise Department and the Immigration Department have been providing support for contact tracing work
為加強對密切接觸者的強制檢疫，分4期興建的竹篙灣檢疫中心現時已經全面啟用，提供共3,500個單位。
To strengthen the compulsory quarantine arrangement for close contacts all four phases of the Pennys Bay Quarantine Centre has been fully activated providing 3 500 units
醫管局會爭取在2月將臨時醫院投入服務。
HA would strive to put the temporary hospital into service in February
鑒於疫情反彈，政府在11月多次宣布進一步收緊社交距離措施。
In view of a rebound of the epidemic the Government had announced successively in November the further tightening of social distancing measures
政府理解剛才多位議員，尤其是業界的議員張宇人議員及邵家輝議員，都有提出社交距離措施對於業界和市民的影響。
The Government understands the impact of social distancing measures on various trades and the public as mentioned by a number of Members just now particularly Mr Tommy CHEUNG and Mr SHIU Ka - fai who are representatives of their respective trade
政府一方面在保障公共衞生的大前提下實施保持社交距離的有效措施，但亦理解業界受影響，以及他們的訴求，並感謝他們一直對防疫抗疫和感染控制措施的配合。
While the Government continues to implement effective social distancing measures to safeguard public health we also understand the impact on various industries and their needs . We appreciate their compliance with our anti - epidemic and infection control measures all along
我們會盡最大努力更精準地遏止疫情，令市民的生活可以盡快恢復。
We will do our best to contain the epidemic with greater precision so that peoples lives can be restored as soon as possible
政府理解業界和市民對銷售和購買年花的訴求，已於1月19日公布銷售年花的新安排。
Understanding the need of the trade and the public for selling and buying New Year flowers the Government announced on 19 January the new arrangements for the sale of New Year flowers
我們會大幅縮減銷售年花的規模，以減低聚眾風險。
We will significantly reduce the scale of the sale of New Year flowers so as to reduce the risk of group gatherings
在年花銷售點開放期間，相關檔戶可免費使用場地，但須遵守場地規則和防疫抗疫措施。
During the opening of points of sale stall operators may use the sites for free but they must comply with the ground rules and anti - epidemic measures
疫苗接種為香港社會帶來希望和曙光。
Vaccination brings a glimmer of hope and optimism to the Hong Kong community
政府會爭取疫苗早日供港，以及按照規例審批作緊急使用，以確保疫苗符合安全、效能及質素的要求。
The Government will strive for the early supply of COVID - 19 vaccines to Hong Kong and approve their emergency use in accordance with regulations with a view to ensuring the safety efficacy and quality of the vaccines
此外，我們正檢視其他可能因工作或其他需要而須盡早接種疫苗的特定群組，包括對香港基建及運作尤其重要的人士。
Furthermore we are reviewing other target groups which may need to receive vaccination early due to their work nature or other needs including those who are particularly crucial to the infrastructure and operations of Hong Kong
在外防輸入方面，目前所有經香港國際機場抵港的旅客，均須跟從"檢測待行"安排，在機場確認核酸檢測陰性結果後，才可前往接受強制檢疫。
On preventing the importation of cases all travellers entering Hong Kong through the Hong Kong International Airport HKIA are currently subject to the test - and - hold arrangement under which they will only be allowed to proceed to undergo compulsory quarantine subject to confirmation of a negative COVID - 19 nucleic acid test result at the airport
在防疫抗疫基金下，食物環境衞生署及漁農自然護理署已推出了資助計劃，為受2019冠狀病毒病疫情和社交距離措施嚴重影響的行業提供財政援助，當中主要為飲食業、漁農業、持牌小販、商營浴室和洗碗業等。
The Food and Environmental Hygiene Department FEHD and the Agriculture Fisheries and Conservation Department have implemented subsidy schemes under the Anti - epidemic Fund to provide financial support to the trades hard hit by the COVID - 19 epidemic and the social distancing measures mainly the catering business the agriculture and fisheries sector licensed hawkers commercial bathhouses and dishware washing trade
食環署正處理相關的申請，以盡快發放資助。
FEHD is processing applications from its tenants and will make disbursements as soon as possible
農業方面，我們繼續落實"新農業政策"下的主要措施，包括在新界古洞南設立農業園，協助培育農業科技和農場管理現代化，並為農戶提供技術支援。
On agriculture we will continue to implement the key initiatives under the New Agriculture Policy including establishing an Agricultural Park in Kwu Tung South in the New Territories to facilitate the development of agro - technology and modernization of farm management as well as provide technical support to farmers
最後，主席，我衷心感謝多位議員對於政府的防疫抗疫工作提出了寶貴的意見。
Lastly President I would like to express my sincere gratitude to a number of Members who have offered their valuable advice on the Governments anti - epidemic work
雖然香港的健康指數在全球名列前茅，但如同許多發達國家一樣，香港正面對人口老齡化的問題。
Hong Kong has one of the highest health indices in the world but like many developed countries it is facing an ageing population
隨着人口急劇增加及老化，本港醫療體系在過去有顯著改變。
With a rapidly growing and ageing population Hong Kongs healthcare system has undergone significant changes in the past
地區康健中心以嶄新模式運作，由政府出資並透過非政府組織營運，以地區為本、公私合營及醫社合作的理念，提升市民預防疾病的意識和管理個人健康的能力，並讓市民可在社區得到所需的護理，長遠有助減輕公營醫療體系的壓力。
DHCs are operating with a new model and they are funded by the Government and operated by non - governmental organizations NGOs with the concept of community - based public - private partnership and medical - community collaboration which aims at raising the awareness of disease prevention and managing personal health enabling people to receive the care they need in the community and helping to reduce the pressure on the public health system in the long term
隨着男女出生人口預期壽命穩步提高，65歲或以上人口的比例預計將從2020年的19.2%顯著上升至2069年的35.8%。
With life expectancy rising steadily for both sexes at birth the proportion of people aged 65 or over is expected to rise significantly from 19.2 % in 2020 to 35.8 % in 2069
地區康健中心計劃包括第一、第二及第三層預防計劃。
DHC programmes are made of the first second and third tier prevention programmes
第二層預防包括健康風險評估、糖尿病及高血壓的篩查。
The second - tier prevention programme includes health risk assessment screening for diabetes and hypertension
第三層預防計劃涵蓋慢性疾病管理及社區復康。
The third - tier prevention programme covers chronic disease management and community rehabilitation
隨着政府於2019年9月在葵青區成立首間地區康健中心後，我們已加緊籌備其他地區的康健中心，其中兩區和10區已分別批出營辦合約或落實選址。
Following the establishment of the first DHC in Kwai Tsing District in September 2019 we have stepped up our efforts to prepare for the establishment of other DHCs in other districts of which two operating contracts have already been awarded and sites in 10 districts have been confirmed correspondingly
另外，我們已於2020年9月向聖雅各福群會批出深水埗地區康健中心的營運服務合約，以及向香港聖公會福利協會有限公司批出黃大仙地區康健中心的營運服務合約。
In addition the contract for the operation of Sham Shui Po DHC was awarded to St James Settlement and a service contract was awarded to the Hong Kong Sheng Kung Hui Welfare Council Limited for the operation of Wong Tai Sin DHC in September 2020
處理人口老齡化這個議題，與多個政策局的政策息息相關，更是環環相扣。
The issue of ageing population is closely related to the policies of various Policy Bureaux and is intertwined with each other
政府明白制訂全面而恰當的長遠規劃的重要性，所以已適時推行多項措施，促進醫療系統長期的持續發展及提供足夠的硬件配套，以應付未來的服務需要，有關措施包括發展基層醫療健康服務及落實醫院發展計劃等，我稍後會聚焦討論這方面。
The Government understands the importance of formulating comprehensive and appropriate long - term planning and has therefore implemented a number of timely measures to promote the long - term sustainable development of the healthcare system and to provide adequate hardware support to meet future service needs including the development of primary healthcare services and the implementation of hospital development plans . I will focus on this area later
主席，我感謝陳健波議員提出今日的議案，亦非常感謝12位議員先後就這個重要的議題提出寶貴的意見。
President I thank Mr CHAN Kin - por for moving this motion today and I am also very grateful to 12 Members for expressing their precious views on this important issue
在地區層面，應有系統地監測本港長者的健康情況，以便政府能更適切地了解長者的健康情況。
Systematic surveillance on the health condition of elderly persons in Hong Kong should be carried out at district level to facilitate understanding of the health conditions of the elderly by the Government in a more appropriate manner
抗疫經驗令大家都採用了新思維，一方面盡量維持必需的服務，另一方面則以其他形式推行措施，進入新常態。
The anti - epidemic experience has enabled us to adopt a new mindset to maintain the necessary services on the one hand and implement measures in some other ways on the other so that we may get used to the new normal
我認為今日的議案討論，對政府將來在這個問題方面的工作帶出不少值得深思的地方，亦相信處理人口老齡化工作會維持一個相當長的時間。
I think our discussion today on this motion has given the Government considerable food for thought in its future work in this respect and I also believe that the work of dealing with population ageing will continue go on for a considerable period of time
接下來，我會簡單就食物及衞生局的工作範疇，對個別議員的意見作出回應。
I will then make a brief response to the views expressed by individual Members on issues within the purview of the Food and Health Bureau FHB
多謝梁美芬議員提出一些問題，並敦促政府要有新思維。
I thank Dr Priscilla LEUNG for bringing up a number of issues and urging the Government to adopt a new mindset
謝偉銓議員提到城市規劃和如何可在規劃地點或整個城市，令長者更加健康和多做運動，這方面我們絕對歡迎，亦覺得我們在老年人健康政策上需要跨部門協作。
Mr Tony TSE spoke on the issue of urban planning and elaborated on the question of how we could improve the health of the elderly and motivate them to do more exercise at planned locations or in the entire city . We absolutely welcome ideas put forward in this respect and concur that inter - departmental collaboration is needed in implementing health policies for the elderly
姚思榮議員提到康體設施的重要性，以及長者於社區內是否有食堂和醫療保健等的建議，而多位議員亦提及身體檢查。
Mr YIU Si - wing pointed out the importance of recreational and sports facilities and put forward some suggestions concerning the provision of community canteens and medical care for the elderly while some other Members also mentioned the provision of medical check - up services
如進行簡單的身體檢查後需要見醫生，政府會有資助，可供會見區內的私家醫生以再作進一步詳細檢查。
If there is the need to consult a doctor after a simple check - up government subsidies will be provided for consulting private doctors in the vicinity for a further medical examination
老年人還可以多種方式對其家庭和社區做出貢獻。
Elderly persons can still contribute to their families and communities through many different ways
在長者醫療券方面，我們要有一項深入研究，因為我們一方面希望長者能用得其所，另一方面亦希望探討如何透過使用長者醫療券，令長者的健康行為得以改善。
As far as the Elderly Health Care Voucher is concerned an in - depth study should be conducted because on the one hand we hope elderly persons can make optimum use of their vouchers while on the other hand we wish to examine how we can improve the health behaviour of the elderly through the use of Elderly Health Care Voucher
所以，我們會就這個課題進行研究。
We will therefore conduct a study on this subject
邵議員亦提到有關非本地培訓醫生的法例修訂建議的重要性，因為我們面對人手短缺的問題。
Mr SHIU also talked about the importance of the legislative amendment proposal on the admission of non - locally trained doctors as we are now facing the problem of manpower shortage
希望大家能珍惜目前的機會，尤其是長者應主動接種疫苗，為香港築起群體免疫屏障，盡快走出疫境。
I hope we can all cherish the present opportunity and the elderly in particular should take the initiative to receive vaccination so as to build a herd immunity barrier for Hong Kong and navigate through the epidemic as early as possible
截至7月20日，在本港212宗死亡個案中，有88%個案是65歲或以上的長者。
As at 20 July this year 88 % of 212 fatal cases recorded in Hong Kong involve elderly persons aged 65 or above
近月全球流行的變異病毒株傳播能力非常強，雖然主要在輸入個案發現，但一旦侵入社區造成廣泛傳播，抵抗力弱、疫苗接種率低的長者人口必定首當其衝。
The mutant strains of the COVID - 19 virus circulating globally in recent months have very high transmissibility and although they are mainly found in imported cases should they enter the community and spread widely the elderly population with its weakened immunity and low vaccination rate will be the first to bear the brunt of infection
剛才提及預防勝於治療及採取以貫穿人生歷程的方式提倡健康生活等，均旨在提升市民保持健康行為的能力，特別是平衡飲食、從事身體活動和避免吸煙和酒精等，這將可有助於減少非傳染病風險並提高身心能力。
As mentioned earlier by recognizing the concept of prevention is better than cure and adopting a life - course approach in promoting healthy lifestyles we seek to enhance peoples capability in maintaining healthy behaviour especially meeting the principle of a balanced diet engaging in physical activity refraining from using tobacco and avoiding alcohol consumption etc because this will help reducing the risks of non - communicable diseases and improving physical and mental abilities
事實上，健康生活方式是學校課程的7個學習宗旨之一，教育局透過不同學科，以全方位學習模式滲透健康生活相關的知識、技能和態度，推動學生建立健康的生活方式。
In fact according to the Education Bureau leading a healthy lifestyle is one of the seven learning goals of the school curriculum and the knowledge skills and attitudes related to the learning goal healthy lifestyle and habits are covered in different subjects and in life - wide learning activities
例如，現時由衞生署、醫管局、地區康健中心或"地區康健站"甚至中醫診所提供的服務，均屬於基層醫療範圍，我們須確保各方面互相配合，有清晰的分工和合作，避免資源重疊或錯配，以最有效的方式提升市民預防疾病的意識和管理個人健康的能力。
For example services provided currently by the Department of Health DH and HA and at DHCs or DHC Expresses and even Chinese medicine clinics are all within the scope of primary healthcare . Efforts should be made to ensure that they are complementary to each other there are clear division of work and collaboration among them and there is no duplication or mismatch of resources so that the publics awareness of disease prevention as well as their self - health management capability can be enhanced in a most effective way
當中長者精神健康調查的對象為居住在社區和院舍的60歲或以上人士，針對長者的精神健康問題，包括認知障礙症、抑鬱症、焦慮症、思覺失調等。
Among these surveys the target groups of mental health survey on elderly persons are those community - dwelling and institutional - based elderly persons aged 60 or above . The survey targets the mental health problems of elderly persons including dementia depression anxiety disorders psychosis etc and is expected to complete within 2022
這項調查預計於2022年內完成，會估算按年齡分類的疾病患病率，顯示各種精神健康問題的相關風險因素，並從病人和市民角度，找出有助於為有精神健康問題的長者提升生活能力和居家安老的重要因素。
It will estimate the age - specific disease prevalence reveal any associated risk factors for various mental health problems and identify important factors supporting functional optimization and ageing - in - place of elderly persons with mental health problems from the patients and general publics perspectives
我想問問局方，如何處理兩者之間的關係和定位？
I would like to ask How does the Bureau handle the relationship between and positioning of the two types of housing?
政府關注體育總會的迫切需要，在體育資助計劃檢討得出結果前，從善如流，提供更多資源支持體育總會的工作，我表示讚賞，也希望這種工作態度能成為政府的一種常態。
While expressing my appreciation of the Governments concern about the urgent needs of NSAs and its acting on good advice to allocate additional resources to support the work of NSAs before the review outcome is available I hope that this work attitude becomes a norm for the Government
事實上，不少體育總會均面對資源不足的問題，大部分均傾向將資源用於推動體育運動，支持運動員發展的工作，用於行政及管理的資源則相對減少。
As a matter of fact quite a number of NSAs are faced with the problem of insufficient resources . Most of them tend to devote the resources to promoting sports and supporting the development of athletes leaving less resources for administration and management
建議公布後，體育界的反應普遍正面。
The response from the sports community to the announced proposal is generally positive
對於年輕運動員及其家長而言，要在學業及體育運動發展上作出取捨並不容易。
For young athletes and their parents making a choice between academic pursuit and sport development is no easy task
運動員從小投入體育培訓，對退役後的安排感到擔憂是完全可以理解。
It is perfectly understandable that athletes involved in sports training from an early age are worried about the post - retirement arrangement
香港運動員基金正可在學業及事業上，為運動員提供支援。
The Hong Kong Athletes Fund is right there to support athletes in their studies and careers
預算案為香港運動員基金注資後，退役獎金將會增加，相信有助減少運動員對退役後安排的顧慮，並放心延長運動員的生涯。
With the injection into the Fund as proposed in the Budget the retirement bonus will increase . It is believed that this would help alleviate athletes worries about post - retirement arrangements so that they feel at ease to extend their athletic careers
對此我非常認同，這亦回應了我與業界一直提出的訴求。
I highly agree with this initiative which has also responded to the demand long raised by the industry and me
除此之外，預算案也有新猷，提出向康文署撥款1億7,600萬元，用於未來5年舉辦大型世界級表演藝術節目，以及供區議會加強社區藝術活動，舉辦更多大型表演藝術節目及社區藝術活動。
In addition the Budget is innovative in proposing to provide an additional funding of 176 million to LCSD for hosting large - scale world - class performing arts programmes and enabling the District Councils to strengthen community arts activities in the coming five years
另一方面，預算案亦提出撥款2,000萬元供香港電影資料館增聘技術人員及添置器材，將急需保存的電影孤本及電影膠片數碼化。
On the other hand the Budget proposes to allocate 20 million to the Hong Kong Film Archive for employing additional technicians and acquiring specialist equipment for digital conversion of sole copies of films and celluloid films in urgent need of archiving
我希望政府為電影數碼化的工作制訂目標，提供恆常資源，讓資料館能盡快完成現存館藏的數碼化工作，使本地的舊電影和本地電影歷史得到妥善的保存。
I hope that the Government sets a target for the digital conversion of films and provide recurrent resources for the Film Archive to complete the digital conversion of existing collections as soon as possible with a view to properly preserving the old local films and the local film history
同樣地，透過電影製作融資計劃製作的電影，近年也有不少佳作，例如"黃金花"、"逆流大叔"等，均深受本地觀眾認可及支持。
Likewise quite a few great films have been produced under the Film Production Financing Scheme in recent years . For example Tomorrow Is Another Day and Men on the Dragon have been well recognized and supported by local audiences
當然，在爭取觀眾、開拓市場方面，政府也有一定的角色，特別是在內地市場的開拓上。
Surely the Government also has a certain role to play in securing audiences and exploring markets especially those in the Mainland
無可否認，政府近年就本地體育發展，不管是硬件或軟件上均確實投入不少。
It is undeniable that the Government has indeed invested a lot in recent years in the development of local sports in terms of both hardware and software alike
今年，政府對體育的支持並沒有因過去的投入而放軟手腳。
This year the Governments support for sports has not dwindled because of the past investment
我所屬的新世紀論壇和公屋聯會曾在預算案公布前聯合進行一項調查，結果顯示有近半數受訪者認為土地及房屋是政府最需要投放資源的政策範疇。
New Century Forum with which I am affiliated and the Federation of Public Housing Estates jointly conducted a survey before the release of the Budget . The findings show that nearly half of the respondents consider land and housing to be the policy areas most in need of resource inputs from the Government
針對中短期房屋需要，預算案預留20億元支持非政府機構興建過渡性房屋，以紓緩部分基層市民的住屋困難，但20億元的撥款估計只能興建4,000個單位，可說是杯水車薪，力度遠遠不足。
In view of the short - and medium - term housing needs the Budget sets aside 2 billion to support non - governmental organizations in constructing transitional housing to alleviate the housing problem of some grass roots . However it is estimated that only 4 000 flats can be built with the 2 billion provision . This is arguably a drop in the ocean far from adequate in terms of efficacy
繼在去年的預算案中承諾按照康樂及文化事務署就體育資助計劃進行檢討所得結果，在資源上予以配合後，政府在今年的預算案中更主動先走一步，在檢討完成前宣布向資助計劃增撥2,500萬元經常撥款，以及為期兩年、每年約1,700萬元的額外津貼，供體育總會應付參與海外比賽、代表隊訓練、支援清貧運動員，以及其他營運支出。
Following the pledge made in last years Budget to make reference to the findings of the review of the Sports Subvention Scheme conducted by the Leisure and Cultural Services Department LCSD and provide the necessary resources for the Scheme the Government has even taken a proactive step forward in this years Budget by announcing before the outcome is available that an additional recurrent provision of 25 million and an extra two - year subsidy of 17 million per year will be allocated for national sports associations NSAs to support participation in overseas competitions offering squad training programmes and supporting underprivileged athletes as well as other operating costs
隨着公屋平均輪候時間上升至5年半，創下18年新高，升勢預計亦會持續，政府應考慮把過渡性房屋納入現有房屋階梯，並作出長遠投入，以紓緩基層市民的住屋壓力。
As the average waiting time for public housing has risen to 5.5 years hitting an 18 - year high and the upward trend is expected to continue the Government should consider including transitional housing as a new rung on the existing housing ladder and make long - term efforts to ease the housing pressure on grass roots
事實上，香港面對發展空間不足的問題，利用"飛地"可開拓更多居住、就業和創業空間，或用作重置部分基礎設施或作其他用途，讓 香港可釋出更多土地重新布局和規劃。
In actuality faced with the problem of insufficient space for development in Hong Kong we can make use of enclaves to create more space for residential employment and business start - up purposes or for reprovisioning some infrastructure or other uses so as to release more land in Hong Kong for re - layout and planning
另一方面，澳門在2009年得到中央政府支持和批准，以租賃形式在珠海橫琴島上建設澳門大學新校區，由澳門政府全權管理。
On the other hand Macao received the support and approval of the Central Government in 2009 to build a new campus of the University of Macau on Hengqin Island Zhuhai to be solely managed by Macao Government
由此可見，"飛地"模式在大灣區並非新鮮事物。
From this it is evident that the enclave model is nothing new in the Greater Bay Area
根據《規劃綱要》，香港在大灣區的定位是國際金融、航運、貿易中心和航空樞紐。
According to the Outline Development Plan Hong Kong is positioned as international financial transportation and trade centres as well as an international aviation hub in the Greater Bay Area
