實情是職工盟在天台有一間鐵皮屋，用以保護消防泵，這是整幢大廈的業主經協調同意的，因為大家都知道為了遵守《條例》便要安裝消防泵。
The truth was that HKCTU had a metal shack on its rooftop used to protect a fire service pump . To comply with the Ordinance the installation of the pump had been agreed by all property owners of the building after consultation
作為整個社會的主事人，政府控制着遊戲規則。
As the leader of the entire community the Government controls the rules of the game
正如朱凱廸議員所說，每年均為4萬人提供服務，多年來都沒有改變。
As Mr CHU Hoi - dick has said the annual number of attendance is 40 000 and this number has remained the same for many years
我們把公帑投放在衞生署，為公務員及其家屬提供牙科服務，由於某些牙科診所需要輪候，於是便會轉介他們到輪候時間較短的診所，但拒絕率是九成。
We have channelled public coffers into the Department of Health DH for the provision of dental services for civil servants and their families and as a waiting period is required at certain dental clinics their cases will be referred to other clinics with shorter waiting time but the rate of these people declining referrals is 90 %
我現在的發言是關於"總目24―審計署"的撥款，當中牽涉財政預算案中的1億6,900萬元，主要的工作是衡工量值式審計工作，這方面只佔大概1億1,100萬元，較去年只增加了5.8%。
I now speak on the appropriation for Head 24―Audit Commission which involves 169 million in the Budget . A main duty of it is to carry out value for money audit which requires only about 110 million an increase of a mere 5.8 % over last year
代理主席，我們的公共資源究竟應該怎樣運用呢？
Deputy Chairman how should our public resources be utilized?
我今天引述了審計署署長的報告，希望大家和政府認真留意......
I cited the Director of Audits Report today in the hope that Members and the Government will seriously pay attention
她當時的健康狀況是，明明有藥物卻沒有錢醫治，但她不甘心就這樣放棄；她還有一名13歲女兒，很不幸，她這種結節性硬化症罕見病亦遺傳給女兒。
Under her health condition at that time even though she could not afford to pay for the drugs to treat her illness she was not willing to give up . She had a 13 - year - old daughter who unfortunately inherited this rare TSC
為何要依靠某些報章的基金，而病友要公開自己的模樣、家庭背景等所有資料，向社會乞求憐憫呢？
They wonder why they have to beg to society and reveal to the public all their information including their appearance and family background
一個文明的社會是不需要這樣做的，本港絕對有足夠的經濟能力來照顧這些基本的需要。
This should not have happened in a civilized society . Absolutely Hong Kong has enough economic means to take care of such basic needs of its people
香港的醫療政策有一句簡潔的話是：沒有人會因為經濟困難而得不到適切的醫療照顧。
There is a succinct description of the health care policy of Hong Kong no one should be denied adequate medical treatment due to the lack of means . This health care policy sounds simple but it is actually a lofty ideal
如果你們是從市民的基本利益出發的話，今天的預算案根本不應該如此，沒可能收取市民及財團的稅款，然後每年退回給他們。
If they had taken the basic interests of the public into consideration the Budget today would not have been like this . The Government should not be rebating the money back to the public and the conglomerates after collecting their tax every year
有資源卻不懂運用，然後說沒有足夠金錢買"救命藥"，這是甚麼樣的政府？
The Government has resources but does not know how to use and then says that there is insufficient money to buy life - saving drugs . What sort of Government is it?
任何人均會生病，如果我們的社會的基本醫療也未完善，政府如何叫人放心、安心？
Everyone will fall ill . If the basic health care services of our society are incomplete how can the Government ask us to set our mind at ease?
我主要是先就"總目90―勞工處"有關人力資源的部分發言。
First of all I will mainly speak on Head 90―Labour Department LD concerning the part on manpower resources
事實上，就港珠澳大橋工程和整體工業安全而言，我們一直要求勞工處面對一個問題，就是按照現今的世界標準，我們的工業安全並不是做得很好。
In fact with regard to the HZMB project and the overall industrial safety we have been requesting LD to admit that our industrial safety performance is not very good when compared with the present world standard
去年瑞銀的一項研究指出，全球平均每周工時為36.5小時，香港則為50小時，較全球的平均數值高38%。
As highlighted in the study conducted by UBS last year while the global average weekly working hours was 36.5 Hong Kong was 50 which was 38 % higher than the global average
不過，我希望這項完全違反退休保障原意的強積金對沖安排真的會消失，在 強積金制度之下是絕對不容有這安排的。
I nonetheless hope that the MPF offsetting arrangement which runs contrary to the original intent of providing retirement protection will really be abolished as this arrangement is absolutely unacceptable under the MPF Scheme
可是，討論了這麼久，所謂的專門櫃台其實並不存在，少數族裔人士到勞工處的就業中心根本找不到特別櫃台，亦找不到人替他們翻譯。
However after considerable discussions the so - called specialized counter is still unavailable . There is no specialized counter for EM in LDs job centres nor is there any interpreter to help them
薪俸稅退稅亦如是，我們有能力向政府繳交稅款，便期望政府能夠妥善運用資源，通過稅收將社會的資源重新分配。
It is the same with the rebate of salaries tax . For people like us who can afford to pay taxes we expect the Government to use its resources properly so that wealth can be redistributed in society through taxes
政府的責任便是通過預算案，讓市民有機會向政府提出意見，而政府應該吸納市民的意見，考慮重新調撥社會資源，包括向社會上的有錢人增加徵稅，藉以為有需要的人提供更多資源。
Thus the Government is duty - bound to make use of the opportunity presented by the budgets to solicit views from members of the public and taking on board their views especially the views of Members of the Legislative Council who are representatives of public opinions the Government should reconsider the reallocation of social resources including levying more taxes on the rich to provide additional resources for the needy
政府應該向匱乏的弱勢社群傾斜地提供資源，並為他們提供平等機會、為他們的基本生計提供援助。
The Government should provide more resources to the disadvantaged groups in society and provide them with equal opportunities as well as support for their basic livelihood
主席，我們今天討論預算案，而議員提出修正案正是要帶出這些問題。
Chairman our discussion on the Budget today is exactly meant to highlight these issues
拖延時間或建制派口中的"拉布"，便是我們的唯一選擇。
Procrastinating or filibustering as claimed by the pro - establishment camp is our only choice
你大可問問的士司機或一些經常久坐的"打工仔女"，他們的健康有否受到影響？
You can ask taxi drivers or those workers who must sit for long periods of time whether their health has been affected or not . It can really impact our health seriously
我們這樣做，或許是個別民主派議員的性格使然。
We choose to do it perhaps because it is how some pro - democracy Members are born to be
我們路見不平，我們看到社會不公義；作為一位社工，我的天職是幫助弱勢社群，我的使命是爭取社會公義。
We see how unjust and unfair our society is . As a social worker my calling is to help the disadvantaged and my mission is to fight for social justice
5分鐘變成1分鐘，我們不如想想，如何好好運用寶貴的資源、時間、金錢、公共空間、土地和知識，推動社會向前、幫助社會上有需要的人，以及改善所有市民的生活質素，不僅是讓一些既得利益者受惠，不僅是維護那些有權有勢的人，不僅是錦上添花。
Instead of shortening the voting time from five minutes to one minute why dont we take time to consider how best our precious resources time money public space land and knowledge should be utilized to promote development in society help the needy and improve the living standards for all the people instead of just benefiting people with vested interests or protecting the rich and the powerful? . We do not need any icing on the cake
如果這個議會能夠多一些雪中送炭，如果這個議會討論的公共政策、法例，以至關於資源分配的預算案能夠實踐社會公義，我們才能夠履行議會賦予我們的神聖責任。
If the Council can do more to provide timely assistance or if the public policies legislation and budgets for resource allocation discussed by this Council can bring about social justice we will be fulfilling our sacred responsibility as Members of the Legislative Council
雖然他們主事教育政策，但卻不信任主流受資助的教育。
How come government officials overseeing education policies do not have faith in the mainstream subsidized education?
主席，最大的謊言莫過於"求學不是求分數"，連小孩也知道這是謊言，但偏偏我們卻不斷重申教育是為了理想，培育我們的下一代。
Chairman learning is more than scoring is the biggest lie ever a lie that even a kid can tell its falsity . And yet we still keep reiterating that education is a means to an end to nurture the next generation
共融的教育制度是要容許不同程度能力的人有不同的發揮，而我們也看到立法會資料研究組亦曾發表相關報告外國已通過立法建立法律基礎，保障SEN學生的基本權益，而其中的核心是訂定個別的學習計劃。
An integrated education system allows people of different capabilities to give play to their strengths and as we can see―the Research Division of the Legislative Council Secretariat has also published a relevant report―overseas countries had through the enactment of legislation established a legal framework to protect SEN students
這些目標必須具體和可量度，並訂有時間表。
The goals must be specific and measurable with a timetable
我們從頭做起，主席也很清楚，我們作為議員草擬一項法案，在《基本法》第七十四條的限制之下基本上是不可能的。
We started from scratch and Chairman should know very well that subject to the limitation of Article 74 of the Basic Law it is basically impossible for Members to draft any bill
不過，即使要花25億元也是值得的，因為可以幫助現時4萬名SEN學生，令他們覺得自己將來會成為有用的人，可以貢獻社會，而不像現時的制度般，把他們變成失敗者。
And yet even if this initiative would increase the expenditure by 2.5 billion the money is worth spending because 40 000 SEN students will benefit . They will then believe that they will become useful persons one day and contribute to society . The existing system however will only turn them into losers
不過，吳克儉的任期所餘無幾，我只能夠寄望下屆政府會稍講道理，否則，我看不到我們......
However not much time is left in the tenure of the Secretary . We can only hope that the next - term Government will be more reasonable otherwise I fail to see
聯合國的報告指出，香港在全球先進地區中，貧富懸殊方面世界排行第一。
According to a report published by the United Nations among the advanced economies around the world Hong Kong ranked first in the world in terms of disparity of wealth
回歸20年，應該把主權和控制權交回香港人。
It has been 20 years after the reunification and it is now time to return autonomy and control to Hong Kong people
至於照顧老弱傷殘方面，我記得董建華說過，一個社會的素養視乎它如何對待社會上最弱勢的一群。
With regard to caring for the elderly the vulnerable and the disabled I remember TUNG Chee - hwa once said that the attainment of a community lies in how it treats the most disadvantaged group in society
我相信這句話有不少人說過，那麼我們究竟如何對待弱勢社群？
I believe many people have heard of such a remark so how did we treat the disadvantaged?
即使我想替女兒申請宿舍亦不符合資格，因為我有能力照顧她。
Even if I want to apply for a place for my daughter she is not eligible because I can take care of her
主席，陳志全議員剛才說何君堯議員心腸不好，我也相信是的。
Chairman Mr CHAN Chi - chuen just now said that Dr Junius HO is not kind - hearted which I also believe so
政府是否瞎了眼，多年來一直看不到輪候隊伍越來越長。
Isnt this ridiculous? . Is the Government so blind that it cannot see that the queues are getting longer and longer throughout the years?
特殊幼兒中心是供6歲以下有殘疾的小朋友入讀的，他們的殘疾程度相對嚴重，畢業後往往需要入讀特殊學校。
SCCCs are established to provide training for children under 6 with disabilities . Given that these children have relatively severe disabilities they often need to continue their studies in special schools after graduation
我已經說過很多次，他們先要輪候評估，而在接受評估後又要再輪候服務，所以輪到他們時，他們已年滿6歲，不再符合入讀資格。
As I have said time and again they must first undergo an assessment before they are eligible to wait for the services . Therefore when it finally comes to their turn they have already turned 6 and are longer eligible for the service
難道政府不知道嗎？
Is the Government not aware of this?
我們且不要說院舍的人手是否足夠，也不要說服務質素和居住環境如何，但這正正是我們對待弱者的態度，這正正是社會資源分配的情況，這正正是我們現時看到的現實。
We are not talking about if there is sufficient manpower in RCHs or the quality of service or living environment but these factors precisely reflect our attitude towards the disadvantaged and the allocation of social resources . That is exactly the reality that we are now facing
代理主席，政府訂有數個政策目標。
Deputy Chairman the Government has laid down a number of policy objectives
在醫療政策方面，沒有人會因為經濟困難而得不到適切的醫療照顧，但事實是否這樣呢？
For health care policy no one should be denied adequate medical treatment through lack of means . But is this the case?
我們的教育政策強調"求學不是求分數"。
Our education policy emphasizes on learning is more than scoring
現時的管治及政治制度是否能夠幫助香港市民提升生活質素，以及幫助社會上最弱勢的一群？
Can the existing administrative and political systems help Hong Kong people improve their standard of living and provide assistance to the most disadvantaged groups in society?
我想請建制派的議員回應，希望廖長江議員會返回會議廳發言。
I hope that Members of the pro - establishment camp will respond to this and I also hope that Mr Martin LIAO will return to this Chamber and speak
主席，我們現正辯論的是把多個總目的撥款納入附表，而這些項目均與我們較早前討論的修正案有關，都是185項修正案中牽涉不同政策局及政策範疇的撥款內容。
Chairman we are now discussing the proposal to have the sum for a number of heads standing part of the Schedule . All the relevant items are related to the amendments that we had discussed earlier on and the funding proposals mentioned in the 185 amendments involve different Policy Bureaux and policy areas
這是立法會，立法會有權批准或不批准政府的預算案。
This is the Legislative Council which has the right to approve and disapprove the Budget of the Government
儘管他們控制大部分的議席，但對於政府提交的所有議案皆照單全收。
Although pro - establishment Members take up the majority of seats they endorse whatever motions put forward by the Government
他這種心態很奇怪，我不明白為何身為議員一定要成功爭取一些東西。
I find his attitude pretty strange and wonder why Members must succeed in fighting for something
是否自由黨不同意？
Does the Liberal Party disagree with this?
是否工聯會不同意？
Does the Hong Kong Federation of Trade Unions disagree with this?
我剛在數天前到油麻地跟那裏的宿友交談，四周一定有蝨患。
A few days ago I visited a hostel in Yau Ma Tei to talk to the lodgers . They said there were bedbugs everywhere
我們怎樣才算負責任呢？
How can we claim that we are responsible Members?
但是，很可惜，我們今天的政治制度不容許這事發生，因為代表民意並得到主要和最多民意支持的議員，在本會所佔的議席是少數。
But much to our regret our current political system does not allow this to happen because Members who represent public opinions and who have commanded majority and the most public support take up only a minority of seats in this Council
雖然我們已說了一萬次，但我們仍要說，因為這是基本的問題，是結構性的問題。
Although we have made this point for 10 000 times we still have to say it for this is a fundamental structural problem
因為政府根本沒有這種意志，根本沒有這個傳統，亦自我設限，說甚麼根據《基本法》第一百零四條，這樣那樣的，其實全部是自己框着自己。
Because the Government basically does not have this will; it basically does not have this tradition; and it has imposed restrictions on itself saying that Article 104 of the Basic Law has to be complied with and this and that . The fact is that all the restrictions are imposed by itself
更甚的是，政府還以為自己的方向正確，繼續向市場傾斜，繼續連一些基本的人本服務，例如教育、醫療、房屋更不用多說，後者一早已是經濟的火車頭，靠它賺錢，賣地後便建豪宅，賣樓又收印花稅，多麼的"過癮"；但那些人本需要的服務則繼續商業化和市場化。
Worse still the Government even thinks that its direction is correct and continuously skews towards the market at the expense of some basic people - based services in respect of education and health care not to mention housing which has long become the locomotive of the economy as the Government relies on it to make money and after the sites are sold luxurious flats are developed and when the flats are sold revenue is generated from the stamp duty . How enjoyable is this . But those services for meeting the public needs have continually become commercialized and market - oriented
你越有錢、越有權，便給你越多，因為那些人的說話最容易聽入耳，亦最能 影響我們的特區政府。
The more money and powers you have the more benefits you will be given because the words of those people are most pleasing to the ears and most capable of influencing our SAR Government . The Government has sided with the rich and powerful and the Government itself is rich and powerful
大家也看到，以往在英國的傳統下，醫療服務免費，以極低廉的價錢提供高質素的醫療服務，這是很重要的。
As we can see under the British traditions in the past health care services were provided free of charge . The public could enjoy quality health care services at extremely low fees . This is very important
政府與那些權貴為伍，它本身也是權貴，所以，有一種說法是，權力使人腐化，絕對的權力使人絕對腐化，這是必然的，是鐵一般的定律，所以，重要的是如何制衡權力。
So as a saying goes power corrupts; absolute power corrupts absolutely . This is always true and an iron - clad rule . Therefore the check and balance of powers is important
以往我們有好的公共服務來保障一般的家庭，現在則走向市場化。
There used to be good public services to protect the ordinary families but now these services are becoming market - oriented while the Government tries to wash its hand of this by all means
政府則盡量不碰，購買藥物嗎？
You need to buy drugs?
正如現時很多長者，當他們連基本自我照顧也無法做到時，很多人便是生不如死，更別說那些在院舍惡質環境下居住的長者，他們缺乏照顧，只能終日臥床沒事可做，沒有任何生命意義，有的只是痛苦。
In the case of many elderly persons when they no longer have basic self - care ability living is a torment for them . Worse still some elderly persons are living in residential care homes for the elderly RCHEs with abhorrent living conditions . Without sufficient care they lie in bed all day; lives have no meaning for them and all they have is suffering
關於黃伯的案件，他一直盡力照顧妻子卻看不到出路。
Regarding the case of old Mr WONG although he had all along been trying his best to take care of his wife he could not see any way out
李慧琼議員也來自會計界，她應該知道很多其他政體的國會有一個額外功能，就是經常審計政府的帳目。
Ms Starry LEE is a member of the accounting profession and she should know that the parliaments of many other regimes have an additional function of regularly auditing government accounts
簡直是浪費我們的時間和 公共資源。
This is simply a waste of our time and public resources
其實，政府已經大權獨攬，但仍要增大權力。
The Government has actually centralized all powers but it still wants more power
這完全是往回走，不是向開放自由的社會邁進，實在可惜。
Regrettably it is moving backward and is not moving towards an open and free society
我希望香港社會重回正路，立法會能真正發揮監察功能。
I hope our society will be on the right track again and the Legislative Council can really perform its monitoring function
正如陳志全議員所說，擁有權力的人傾向攬權，所以權力制衡非常重要。
As Mr CHAN Chi - chuen has said people having the power tend to grasp more power so checks and balances are really important
主席，此項擬議決議案提交立法會，我們一般當作差不多是行禮如儀。
President after this proposed resolution is presented to the Legislative Council Members would almost treat it as a mere formality in general
我們未曾聽聞有議員考慮投反對或棄權票，但我今天的確準備投棄權票。
In the past we have not heard that Members would consider voting against such a motion or abstaining from voting but today I am really prepared to abstain from voting
張舉能法官說得很清楚，他說對於獲任命和推薦感到榮幸，亦充分了解社會對司法機構有很高的期望；如獲委任，他將竭盡所能，確保法治和司法獨立得以維持，個人權利和自由獲得保障。
Mr Justice Andrew CHEUNG declared explicitly his honour to be recommended for the position and he fully understood that society had very high expectations for the Judiciary . He said that if he was appointed he would try his best to ensure that the rule of law and judicial independence would be upheld and the rights and freedoms of individuals be maintained
所以，極權者一定不喜歡三權分立，更不喜歡有獨立能力制衡其他權力的機關。
Thus an authoritarian regime surely does not like the principle of separation of powers much less any agency which has the independent ability to keep other powers in check
因此，權力就在於制衡，而法律就是用來限制諸多有權力的機制或人物。
Power lies in the ability to exercise checks and balances and the law is used to restrict many powerful mechanisms or persons
這就是我們說法治已死的問題。
This problem is what we call the demise of the rule of law
到了2017年，他再次訪問香港，亦再說了一次無論是行政機構的主要官員或立法、司法機構的負責人也要有國家觀念，在開展政務活動和處理有關問題的過程中，要善於站在國家的高度觀察和思考問題，自覺維護國家主權、安全和發展利益，履行自己對國家的責任。
In 2017 when he visited Hong Kong again he reiterated that the principal officials or persons in charge of the legislature or the Judiciary must have a national concept . In the process of conducting administrative activities and dealing with related issues they must observe and think from the high perspective of the country and they must consciously safeguard the sovereignty of the State national security and interests in the development of the country to fulfil their responsibilities to the State
為何到了今天我要投下棄權票？
Why will I abstain from voting today?
他今天所做的事情，其實是他這麼多年來都這樣着說的。
What he is doing today complies with what he has been saying all these years
這位首席法官正正說他會竭盡所能，確保法治和司法獨立得到維持。
The Chief Justice designate said that he would try his best to ensure the upholding of the rule of law and judicial independence
主席，我們最大的困難是共產政權下跟開放社會下的國家觀念截然不同。
President our biggest difficulty is that the concept of the State under the Communist regime is completely different from that of open societies
我不是沒有意見、不是中立，不是逃避責任不敢表決贊成或反對，而是我沒有信心投下信任一票。
It is not that I do not have any views or have adopted a neutral stance on the motion; it is not that I want to avoid undertaking responsibility and dare not vote for or against the motion; the point is that I am not confident to cast a vote of confidence
問題的核心是根本我們已經不斷被蠶食，不斷放棄我們在開放社會裏的價值；我們在概念上已不斷被混淆，而國家已經蓋過一切，甚至用國家的安全和主權蓋過一切，令我們整個司法制度也會淪陷。
The crux of the problem is that the values of our open society have been continually eroded and surrendered . People have continued to confuse us with the concepts that the State overrides everything and that national security and state sovereignty override everything . Consequently our entire judicial system has collapsed
另一個我想說的概念是，今天這些從政者、執政者或統治者不斷說他們是依法施政，一切均按照法律執行，所有工作也是合法的，不過又是一種語言"偽術"。
Let me turn to another concept . Today our administrators law enforcement officers or rulers keep saying that they are administering according to the law and all actions taken comply with the law and are lawful . That is a kind of sophistry
這叫有公義嗎？
Do you call this justice?
這樣能夠讓司法系統對權力作出制衡嗎？
Can the judicial system exercise any checks on the powers under these circumstances?
許智峯議員剛才說得很清楚，法治之下有兩樣很重要的東西，便是制衡和公義。
Mr HUI Chi - fung clearly told us two important features under the rule of law namely checks and balances and justice
法治是希望達成公義，而獨立的司法系統便是希望有一個制衡能力；沒有制衡，權力便會絕對腐化，即是我們沒有辦法達到最後的社會公義。
The rule of law seeks to do justice and an independent judicial system seeks to exercise checks and balances without which power will corrupt absolutely and social justice cannot be achieved in the end
代理主席，首先，我十分感謝各位議員這兩天就辯論環節發言。
Deputy President first of all I thank Members for speaking in the debate session in these two days
事實上，不同國家和地區亦設有類似的優先投票安排，讓行動不便、孕婦或長者等選民可優先投票。
In fact different countries and regions have already provided similar priority voting arrangements for persons with mobility difficulties pregnant women or the elderly
但是，在去年原訂舉行的立法會換屆選舉上，當疫情極為嚴峻時，大量選民因各項邊境管制措施和檢疫措施而滯留境外，無法在投票日回港投票，社會上亦有不少聲音認為特區政府應該為這些選民作出更便利的投票安排，再加上選管會亦有建議政府應研究境外投票的安排。
However in respect of the Legislative Council General Election originally scheduled to be held last year a large number of electors were stranded outside Hong Kong owing to various boundary control and quarantine measures amidst the severe epidemic situation . They were unable to return to Hong Kong to cast their votes on the polling day . There were many voices in the community thinking that the SAR Government should provide more convenient voting arrangements for these electors
我們會繼續積極研究有關建議，並實事 求是地，在能夠確保選舉在公平、公開和誠實的情況下才會考慮落實推行。
We will continue to proactively study the relevant recommendations and implementation will only be considered when elections can be conducted pragmatically in an open fair and honest manner
就落實全國人民代表大會常務委員會在2016年11月7日通過《關於〈中華人民共和國香港特別行政區基本法〉第一百零四條的解釋》的工作，特區政府現正積極進行相關法例修訂的草擬工作。
In connection with implementing the Interpretation of Article 104 of the Basic Law of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region of the Peoples Republic of China endorsed by the Standing Committee of the National Peoples Congress NPCSC on 7 November 2016 the SAR Government is now proactively proceeding with the drafting of the relevant legislative amendments
目前，相關法例草案的準備工作正積極進行中，我們預期在農曆新年後會提交立法會審議。
The preparation of the relevant bill is now actively under way; we expect that the Bill will be introduced to the Legislative Council for consideration after Lunar New Year
至於《國旗及國徽條例》的修訂工作，全國人大常委會在去年10月17日已通過《中華人民共和國國旗法》及《中華人民共和國國徽法》的修正草案，並已於今年1月1日正式實施。
As for the amendments to the National Flag and National Emblem Ordinance the amendments to the Law of the Peoples Republic of China on the National Flag and the Law of the Peoples Republic of China on the National Emblem was endorsed by NPCSC on 17 October last year and officially came into force on 1 January this year
我們正準備根據經修訂的《國旗法》及《國徽法》的規定、精神和原則，對本地《國旗及國徽條例》作出適當的修訂，以實施有關規定。
We are now preparing to suitably amend the local National Flag and National Emblem Ordinance in accordance with the provisions spirit and principles of the amended National Flag Law and the National Emblem Law so as to implement the relevant provisions
現時，我們正全力推進相關工作，以期盡早提交立法會審議，從而履行特區的憲制責任。
We are now pressing full steam ahead with the relevant work with a view to introducing the bill to the Legislative Council for consideration as early as possible thereby fulfilling the constitutional responsibility of SAR
要全面準確落實"一國兩制"，我們更必須要依照《憲法》和《基本法》辦事。
To ensure that the one country two systems principle is fully and accurately implemented we must adhere to the Constitution and the Basic Law
要達到這目標，我們更需要增強市民對《憲法》和《基本法》的認識。
To achieve this objective there is a greater need to enhance peoples understanding of the Constitution and the Basic Law
我們舉辦了一系列活動推廣《憲法》及《基本法》，包括在去年6月8日舉辦《基本法》頒布30周年網上研討會，以及在去年12月4日"國家憲法日"主辦以"憲法與國家安全"為題的網上座談會。
We have organized a series of events to promote the Constitution and the Basic Law including the webinar held on 8 June last year in commemoration of the 30 anniversary of the promulgation of the Basic Law and the online seminar held on the Constitution Day 4 December last year with the theme The Constitution and National Security
