環境局主要負責為香港制訂跟能源供應、電力和氣體安全，以及能源效益和節能有關的政策和計劃，從而促進香港的可持續發展，並且提高市民的生活環境質素。
The Environment Bureau is mainly responsible for developing policies and programmes in relation to energy supply electrical and gas safety as well as energy efficiency and energy saving so as to promote sustainable development in Hong Kong and enhancing the quality of the peoples living environment
削減總目137下的運作開支和薪酬預算開支將嚴重影響環境局的日常運作，因此我們不同意有關削減建議。
Cutting the estimated expenditure on operation and emoluments under head 137 will seriously obstruct the Environment Bureaus daily operation . Therefore we do not agree to the proposal . Regarding Amendment Nos
有關"總目138―政府總部：發展局"的修正案編號111至115。尹兆堅議員、陳志全議員和劉小麗議員分別就總目138提出修正案，以削減發展局局長、發展局副局長和發展局政治助理的薪酬預算開支。
111 to 115 proposed respectively by Mr Andrew WAN Mr CHAN Chi - chuen and Dr LAU Siu - lai in respect of Head 138―Government Secretariat Development Bureau which seek to cut the estimated expenditure on the emoluments for the Secretary for Development Under Secretary for Development and the Political Assistant to Secretary for Development
有關修正案會令發展局局長辦公室失去所需資源，以推行局方在2017-2018年度各項重點工作。
These amendments will strip the Office of the Secretary for Development bear of resources necessary for carrying out the major tasks in 2017 - 2018
在2017-2018年度，屋宇署會繼續進行現行工作，包括：第一，採取執法行動，清拆僭建物；第二，巡查目標樓宇內的分間單位，並糾正違規建築工程；第三，清拆新界豁免管制屋宇中違例情況嚴重及對樓宇安全構成較高潛在風險的僭建物；以及第四，檢討各建築物的規例標準和作業守則等。
70 in respect of Head 82―Buildings Department in 2017 - 2018 the Buildings Department will go on performing existing tasks including first taking enforcement action to remove unauthorized building works; second inspecting subdivided units in target buildings and conducting rectification works; third removing unauthorized building works in New Territories Exempted Houses constituting serious contravention of the law and posing higher potential risks to building safety; and fourth reviewing various building regulations standards and codes of practice and so on
倘若陳志全議員就削減屋宇署個人薪酬下薪金的全年預算開支的修正案獲得通過，將會影響屋宇署的工作，因而影響樓宇安全及建築發展項目的質素。
Passing the amendment proposed by Mr CHAN Chi - chuen seeking to cut the annual estimated expenditure on salaries under personal emoluments of the Buildings Department will affect the Buildings Departments work thereby jeopardizing building safety and the quality of construction projects
倘若陳志全議員就削減地政總署個人薪酬下薪金的全年預算開支的修正案獲得通過，地政總署將難以提供各項土地行政和土地測量等服務，令土地和房屋發展停滯不前，土地違規行為未能進行執管和收地項目的補償申索無法獲得處理，嚴重影響社會發展和民生。
If the amendment proposed by Mr CHAN Chi - chuen seeking to cut the annual estimated expenditure on salaries under personal emoluments of the Lands Department is passed the Lands Department will have difficulty in providing various services concerning land administration and survey and so on . The situation will give rise to a stagnation of lands and housing development as well as the inability on the part of the authorities in taking enforcement action against irregularities in land use and handling compensation claims in relation to land resumption severely affecting social development and the peoples livelihood . As to Amendment Nos
如果羅冠聰議員就 削減《香港2030+》可持續發展評估的全年預算開支的修正案獲得通過，不單會影響規劃方面的研究工作，更會延誤《香港2030+》預計在2018年完成的目標。
If the amendment proposed by Mr Nathan LAW seeking to cut the annual estimated expenditure on assessment of sustainable development under Hong Kong 2030 is passed not only will this hinder the planning studies but also delaying the achievement of the target to complete the Hong Kong 2030 study by 2018 . Considering Amendment Nos
有關"總目159―政府總部：發展局"的修正案編號170至172。在發展局方面，如果部分議員對工務科及其部門的削款修訂建議獲得通過，將會嚴重影響有關部門運作，亦直接影響有關部門為公眾提供的服務，令市民的生活質素和安全受損。
to in respect of Head 159―Government Secretariat Development Bureau Works Branch if Members amendments relating to cutting the estimated expenditure incurred by the Development Bureau Works Branch and its group of departments are passed it will very much affect the operation of the departments concerned and the provision of public services at the expense of the peoples quality of life and safety
因此，我要求委員否決有關修正案，當中政府就有關建築署及土木工程拓展署的削款修訂建議有以下回應。
Therefore I request Members to reject these amendments . In connection with amendments seeking to cut the estimated expenditure incurred by the Architectural Services Department and the Civil Engineering and Development Department the response of the Government is as follows
土木工程拓展署的工作關乎本地民生服務及有利經濟發展的工作，假如今次陳志全議員、朱凱廸議員和劉小麗議員的削款修訂建議獲得通過，將會嚴重影響土木工程拓展署的運作，直接影響該署為公眾提供的服務，並且導致有關項目無法如期開展或完成。
33 to 39 in respect of Head 33―Civil Engineering and Development Department the Civil Engineering and Development Departments work is conducive to the livelihood of local communities and economic development so passage of the amendments proposed by Mr CHAN Chi - chuen Mr CHU Hoi - dick and Dr LAU Siu - lai which seek to cut the estimated expenditure concerned will greatly impede the operation of the Civil Engineering and Development Department and will deal a direct blow to the services offered to the public as well as delaying the scheduled commence or completion of related projects
因此，我懇請委員否決有關修正案。
Therefore I urge Members to reject these amendments . The Government rejects Amendment Nos
有關"總目158―政府總部：運輸及房屋局"的修正案編號167至169。就郭家麒議員和陳志全議員提出的修正案，建議削減總目158下運輸及房屋局的部分運作開支及薪酬預算開支，政府予以反對。
167 to 169 proposed by Dr KWOK Ka - ki and Mr CHAN Chi - chuen in respect of Head 158―Government Secretariat Transport and Housing Bureau which seek to partially cut the estimated expenditure incurred by the Transport and Housing Bureau on operation and emoluments under head 158
削減分目000下大約相當於運輸及房屋局局長3個月的薪酬預算開支，此舉會令運輸及房屋局局長在上述期間無法帶領運輸及房屋局及其轄下部門履行有關運輸及房屋方面的服務和發展工作，將會嚴重影響局方和部門的正常運作及各項運輸及房屋發展計劃項目的推展。
Cutting an amount approximately equivalent to the estimated expenditure on three months salaries for the Secretary for Transport and Housing in respect of subhead 000 will result that the Secretary for Transport and Housing cannot lead the Transport and Housing Bureau and its group of departments to provide the services and carry out their duties concerning transport and housing during the above period which will then create major disturbance to the everyday operation of the Bureau and its group of departments and the progress of various transport and housing development projects
另一方面，三跑道項目對維持香港國際機場的國際和區域航空樞紐的地位，以及確保香港的長遠發展和可續發展極為重要。
On the other hand the Three - runway System 3RS is essential to preserve Hong Kong International Airports status as an international and regional aviation hub as well as ensuring Hong Kongs long - term and continuous development
立法會在上屆成立了跟進香港國際機場三跑道系統相關事宜小組委員會，共舉行了10次會議，包括兩次公聽會。
The last - term Legislative Council established the Subcommittee to Follow Up Issues Relating to the Three - runway System at the Hong Kong International Airport which held 10 meetings including two public hearings
現屆立法會也成立了跟進香港國際機場三跑道系統相關事宜小組委員會。
The current term Legislative Council has also established the Subcommittee to Follow Up Issues Relating to the Three - runway System at the Hong Kong International Airport
小組委員會自2016年11月開始運作以來，合共舉行了4次會議，其中討論了有關三跑道項目的最新進展、造價和財務安排、人力規劃及發展，以及環境影響評估的主要措施和推行進度等。
The Subcommittee hold totally four meetings since commencing operation in November 2016 discussing such topics as the latest progress of the 3RS cost and financial arrangement manpower plan and development as well as progress of implementation of key Environmental Impact Assessment commitments and so on
統籌辦將會繼續全力配合小組委員會的工作，幫助立法會有效監察三跑道項目的推展。
AEPCO will continue striving to coordinate with the Subcommittees work with a view to assisting the Legislative Council to effectively monitor the implementation of the 3RS project
如果相關項目的撥款被削減，政府對機管局落實三跑道項目工作上的監察角色和功能，將無可避免地大幅度削弱。
Cutting the funding for the projects concerned will unavoidably impair the Governments roles and functions in monitoring AAs tasks in carrying out the 3RS project
因此，我們反對有關修訂，並懇切要求各位委員支持有關撥款，讓政府能夠監察落實三跑道項目的工作。
So we reject the amendments concerned and earnestly call on Members to support the funding related allowing the Government to monitor the implementation of the 3RS project . The Government rejects Amendment Nos
有關"總目186―運輸署"的修正案編號180至181。就陳志全議員提出的修正案，建議削減總目186下運輸署的全年薪酬預算開支，政府是反對的。
180 to 181 proposed by Mr CHAN Chi - chuen in respect of Head 186―Transport Department which seeks to cut the annual estimated expenditure incurred by the Transport Department on emoluments under head 186
有關撥款用作支付運輸署近1,705名員工的薪金，如果修正案獲得通過，運輸署將無法按合約支付所有員工的薪金，而轄下所有辦事處及各項運輸設施也無法確保安全和正常運作，嚴重影響運輸署為市民提供的服務和公共交通配套。
The funding concerned will be spent on the salaries for almost 1 705 staff members of the Transport Department . If the amendments are passed the Transport Department will no longer be able to make salary payments to all employees in accordance with contracts . Moreover it will not be possible to ensure that offices and transport facilities under the Department can operation safely and normally seriously affecting the services and public transport support provided by the Transport Department
此外，政府可能因無法支付薪金而承擔法律責任。
Furthermore the Government may be subject to legal liability for defaulting salary payments
政府亦反對梁國雄議員提出削減撥款購置復康巴士預算開支的修正案。
The Government also rejects Mr LEUNG Kwok - hungs amendment seeking to cut the estimated expenditure on procuring Rehabuses
復康巴士為不便使用一般公共交通工具的殘疾人士提供點到點的交通服務，復康巴士的固定路線服務則提供固定班次，接載有需要的殘疾人士上班和上學，以及接受康復治療。
Rehabuses provides point - to - point transport service for persons with disabilities who have difficulties using general public transport . Moreover Rehabuses also offer regular Scheduled Route Service for needy persons with disabilities to travel between workplaces and schools as well as for rehab treatment
電召服務是以先得先 得的方式接受預約，應付殘疾人士接受治療，參與社區活動等交通所需。
Dial - a - Ride Service is delivered to persons with disabilities through advance booking on a first - come - first - serve basis so that they can travel to receive rehab treatment and participate in social activities and so on
過去5年，勞工及福利局撥款予復康巴士營運者，增加了33輛復康巴士，使車輛總數增加至156輛。
Over the last five years the Labour and Welfare Bureau has allocated funding to the operator of Rehabus for procuring 33 additional Rehabuses thereby increasing the fleet size to 156 vehicles
復康巴士的服務人次由2012年的759,900人次增加至2016年的899,700人次。
The number of passenger trips served by Rehabuses increased from 759 900 in 2012 to 899 700 in 2016
勞工及福利局和運輸署一直密切留意復康巴士服務的需求變化，按照實際需要增撥資源，以加強及增設新的復康巴士服務。
The Labour and Welfare Bureau and the Transport Department have been closely monitoring the change in demand for Rehabus service and deploying additional resources according to actual service needs so as to enhance and introduce additional Rehabus services
2017-2018年度的有關撥款可以讓復康巴士的營運者添置8輛新車，以及更換9輛車齡較高的車輛，令車輛數目進一步增加至164輛。
The funding in 2017 - 2018 will enable the operator to procure 8 new vehicles and replace 9 obsolete vehicles further increasing the fleet size to 164 vehicles
新添置的復康巴士服務可以為2016年12月底在固定路線服務輪候冊上的30名申請人士提供服務，以及每年為電話預約服務增加接載25,400人次。
The newly added buses will start serving 30 applicants on the waiting list for Scheduled Route Service in late December 2016 and additionally provide 25 400 passenger trips for Dial - a - Ride Service each year
削減勞工及福利局撥款購置復康巴士，將會為不便於使用一般公共交通工具的殘疾人士帶來不便。
Therefore cutting the funding to the Labour and Welfare Bureau for procuring Rehabuses will cause inconvenience to persons with disabilities who have difficulties in using general public transport
主席，我謹此陳辭，懇請各位委員否決第4項合併辯論中所涉及的修正案。
With these remarks Chairman I urge Members to reject all amendments in relation to the fourth debate
主席，我相信有很多議員就這個主題也沒有時間發言，所以我認為你的判斷是錯誤的，我希望你能夠補回一些時間讓同事發言。
Chairman I believe many Members do not have sufficient time to speak on this subject . I thus think that your judgment is wrong . I hope that you can allow more time for Members to speak
第一，我準備了很多資料要說，但因為沒有時間，唯有集中說關於劉小麗議員的兩項修正案，就是修正案編號121及122，削減局長和副局長1個月薪酬。
First I have prepared a lot of information for my speech but due to insufficient time I can only focus on two amendments proposed by Dr LAU Siu - lai Amendment Nos . 121 and 122 . The amendments seek to cut one month of the emoluments of the Secretary for Labour and Welfare and the Under Secretary for Labour and Welfare
大家都可能估計到，我會說他們推行全民退休保障不力。
I believe Members may have guessed that I will talk about their failure to take forward universal retirement protection
因為你用"裁布"的方法，我們根本無法發言，亦不會點算法定人數。
All is because after you have cut the filibuster we simply do not have enough time to speak and will not make any quorum calls
因為"講多錯多"。
More words more mistakes is the reason
我現在說回全民退休保障的問題，今屆政府其實已就這個議題作出了斷，如果預算案獲通過，便會獲撥款實行所謂的"三級制"退休保障。
I now come back to the subject of universal retirement protection . In fact this Government has already made a decision on this subject . If the Budget is passed funding will be earmarked for a so - called three - tiered retirement protection proposal
所以，這是一個非常重大的問題，我不明白為何沒有人討論。
Hence this is a very big issue . I do not know why no one speaks on it
過去5年，我在立法會的預算案辯論用"拉布"或不停發言的方法，希望政府採納全民退休保障。
In the Budget debates of the past five years I filibustered or made prolonged speeches in an attempt to make the Government accept the implementation of universal retirement protection
就以已經離開立法會的譚耀宗議員為例，他亦擔任過行政會議成員，他在1994年提出一項議案，動議實行全民退休保障，我引述他的發言："不過，我必須指出，單靠綜援金只能幫助小部分陷於赤貧的人，並非長遠解決大部分老人晚年生活的辦法。
He was a former Chairman of the Democratic Alliance for the Betterment and Progress of Hong Kong DAB and also a former member of the Executive Council . He moved a motion in 1994 on implementing universal retirement protection . Let me quote his words I must however point out that the payment made under the CSSA scheme alone can only help a small number of people living in abject poverty―it is not a long - term solution to problems faced by most of the elderly in their later years
同時，現時政府用於老人高齡津貼和綜援金的支出已達40億，若到2030年時，老人的數目增加3倍，政府的支出將達120億，相等於政府向老年退休金計劃的供款率的4%，這是否社會整體所能承擔？
Furthermore the Government is now spending up to 4 billion on Old Age Allowance and CSSA payments . If by the year 2030 the number of elderly residents increases by three times the Governments expenditure will be as much as 12 billion equivalent to 4 % of the rate of contributions made by the Government to the OPS . Can our society as a whole afford this?
又會否為未來特區政府造成財政上的沉重壓力？
Will this cast too heavy a burden on the future Special Administration Region Government?
因此，長遠而言，必須同時推行老年退休金和中央公積金計劃。
In the long run the OPS and the central provident fund scheme should be implemented side by side
"他亦認為要進行更全面的改革。
He was also of the view that a comprehensive reform should be taken forward
最有趣亦最令人不能不在歷史上找線索的，就是陳茂波議員，我們都與他做過同事，他在2011年1月19日提出一項議案，名為"公共財政政策的檢討"。
He used to be our colleague . He moved a motion on Reviewing Public Finances Policies on 19 January 2011 . He made a long speech on the motion
然後，他繼續說出解決方法："再看看政府坐擁的資產，有些資產是可以套現，而又不影響公共政策的，例如將港鐵持股量由77%減至50%；把機場管理局上市，但政府保持50%的控股權。
Nor should there be any callous insensitivity to their plight . He then went on to mention his solution Some of the assets owned by the Government can be cashed in without affecting public policies . For example the shares owned in the MTR Corporation Limited MTRCL can be reduced from 77 % to 50 % or to list the Airport Authority while the Government still holds 50 % of its shares
政府在兩者的持股量保持在50%，是不會影響消費者和市民的權益，但可以即時套現1,000億元。如果動用這1,000億元款項，為一直最缺乏社 會保障的長者提供服務或起動全民退休保障，便可立竿見影地展示特區政府對解決人口老化和全民退休保障的承擔"。
If the Government keeps its shareholding at 50 % it will not affect the interest of consumers and the public while the Government can cash in 100 billion if this sum of 100 billion is used to provide services to the elderly badly in need of social security or to launch universal retirement protection this will serve to show instantly the Governments commitment to solving the problems of population ageing and universal retirement protection . This is the solution he proposed
換言之，他贊成陳茂波議員提出的公共理財政策討論，並以此為目標作修正。
In other words he supported Mr Paul CHANs motion on Reviewing Public Finances Policies and moved an amendment to fine - tune it . Both DAB and HKFTU and Mr Paul CHAN and Mr CHAN Kin - por said the same thing
其實，未來的特首林鄭月娥也難辭其咎，她是扶貧委員會的主席，她委託香港理工大學應用社會科學系社會政策研究中心進行的調查結果顯示，接近七成受訪者支持香港設立無需入息及資產審查的全民退休保障計劃；接近九成受訪者贊成向有盈利的大企業徵收不多於2%的利得稅，以及政府注資1,000億元放進全民退休保障啟動基金。
Actually the in - coming Chief Executive Mrs Carrie LAM has to share the blame . When she was the Chairperson of the Commission on Poverty she entrusted the Centre for Social Policy Studies of the Department of Applied Social Science of the Hong Kong Polytechnic University to conduct a survey . According to the survey result almost 70 % of the interviewees support the establishment of a non - income and non - assets tested universal retirement protection scheme in Hong Kong; and almost 90 % of the interviewees agree that large corporations making a surplus should be levied an extra profits tax of no more than 2 % and that an activation fund on universal retirement protection should be established with a government funding of 100 billion
政府輸打贏要，要求周永新教授進行研究，到周教授做了一項融資方案後，政府卻說他的數字有錯誤，要修改，拖延1年後才發表。
The Government was such a bad loser . It asked Prof Nelson CHOW to conduct a research on the subject . But then after Prof CHOW put forth a financing proposal the Government revised it with the excuse of inaccurate data and did not publish it until one year later
你們經常光顧的鏞記酒家，對面有一個垃圾箱，每晚也有幾個老人家在爭奪紙皮。
Across the street of the famous Yung Kee Restaurant frequented by many of you there is a garbage bin . Every night a few old people would fight for the paper cartons dumped there
因此，我希望各位議員贊成劉小麗議員的修正案，扣減......局長和副局長的薪酬。
I thus urge Members to support the amendments proposed by Dr LAU Siu - lai so as to cut the emoluments of the Secretary and the Under Secretary
主席，我發言針對修正案編號112，削減發展局局長3個月的薪酬開支預算。
Chairman I rise to speak on Amendment No . 112 which seeks to cut the estimated expenditure equivalent to the three - month emolument of the Secretary for Development . Secretary for Development Eric MA is probably not in the Chamber now
他對於議員的態度，是相當可圈可點的。
His attitude towards Members really merits our attention
其實，事情是很新鮮熱辣的，他為承建商和顧問卸責，指責及攻擊議員相當在行。
Actually there is a very recent happening that can show his expertise in absolving contractors and consultants from their faults and in accusing and attacking Members
我想引述他在4月26日二讀發言時的內容，他說："近年基本工程計劃的推展，經常受立法會'拉布'行動的影響，變得舉步維艱。
Let me quote what he said on 26 April during the Resumption of Second Reading debate . He said In recent years the delivery of the Capital Works Programme has often been affected by filibustering in the Legislative Council making our work extremely difficult
超支正正因為在審議過程中，大家和稀泥，對於政府提交的撥款申請不作仔細審查，才造成有口皆"悲"的局面是悲情的悲。
The precise reason was instead some Members sloppiness their failure to meticulously examine the funding requests of the Government and this has led to the cost overruns that cause misery to all
主席，我想世界上眾多政府在審批工程的超支率和超支額之大，香港政府認第二，沒政府敢認第一。
Chairman I think the Hong Kong Government is second to none among all governments in the whole world when it comes to the rates and actual amounts of project cost overruns it has approved . Secretary Eric MA often accuses us of obstructing the construction of public rental housing PRH units
主席，發展局又有另一個令大家眼前一亮的"起動九龍東"項目，本來我不想說這個項目。
Chairman the Development Bureau has put forward another splendid project named Energizing Kowloon East . I initially did not want to talk about this project
事實卻是，啟德郵輪碼頭已淪為國際大笑柄。
But the truth is that the Kai Tak Cruise Terminal has become an international laughing stock
很簡單，政府當年估計郵輪業於2023年會為本港帶來每年15億元至26億元的經濟效益，啟德郵輪碼頭大約會創造5,300個至8,900個額外就業機會，但是到2016年，實際的船次數目是次，比預估數字低31.3%。
The reason is very simple . The Government estimated years ago that by 2023 the cruise industry would generate for Hong Kong 1.5 billion to 2.6 billion worth of economic benefits a year and the Kai Tak Cruise Terminal would create 5 300 to 8 900 additional jobs . However in 2016 the number of ship calls was merely 191 31.3 % lower than the estimated number
實際郵輪旅客數目是677,031人次，比他們當時說的遊客數目低了33.5%。
The actual cruise passenger throughput was just 677 031 33.5 % lower than the estimated figure
所以，在這一點上，我希望大家明白，我要求扣減馬紹祥局長及發展局"起動九龍東"部門全年預算開支是有道理的，是要令他們......
Therefore I hope Members can appreciate that my proposal to cut the emolument for Secretary Eric MA and the estimated annual expenditure for the Energizing Kowloon East project under the Works Branch of the Development Bureau is perfectly reasonable as it can make them
她公開說不想死，希望政府能夠幫助她，因為她是患有罕見疾病的病人。
She openly said that she did not want to die and hoped that the Government could help her because she was a patient with a rare disease
很不幸，她說完這番話之後亦不能再在立法會的公聽會上訴苦，因為她已經離世，到了另一個世界。
Unfortunately after saying the above she could no longer air her grievances in a public hearing of the Legislative Council . She is now dead and has gone to another world
那位女士在不久前來到立法會，我們還記憶猶新。
That lady came to the Legislative Council not long ago and it is still fresh in our memory
"我們當然要大費周章，經過很多書信來往，終於在4月24日......
We of course needed to do a lot of work and exchange a lot of letters . Finally on 24 April Secretary this is not related to you but to SWD
他說社署不能幫助，不如向撒瑪利亞基金申請。
He said that SWD could not offer help and asked us to apply to the Samaritan Fund
你替他申請到的藥物，你自己吃吧。
About the drugs that you have applied for him you can have them yourself
香港回歸20年，越來越好，我們的成績很輝煌......
Twenty years after the handover Hong Kong is getting better and we have very conspicuous achievements I was upstairs when I heard Mr CHAN Chi - chuen and Ms Claudia MO talking about animal rights and I really could not help coming downstairs to speak
政府在發展社區時有否預留地方？
Has the Government reserved any area when developing the community?
醫者父母心，但當局連一句公道說話也沒有，葉文娟連一滴眼淚也沒有流。
Medical practitioners should be kind - hearted but the authorities did not say anything fair to them and Ms Carol YIP did not even shed a tear

它涉及大量公帑開支，直至現時，這項規劃仍為人 詬病，亦有很多人批評它的各種不善及不濟之處。
This updated study which entails a huge sum of public expenditure has been a subject of criticism due to its inadequacies and defects
在這個環節，我想詳細表達我對《香港2030+》的意見，我的結論是：這個可持續發展評估應該暫停。
In this session I wish to express in detail my views concerning Hong Kong 2030 . Here is my conclusion the sustainability assessment should be suspended
政府最初提出《香港2030+》時，起步工作已做得很差，因為它的諮詢工作極不完善，諮詢期開展的時候，當局只公布了《香港2030+》15份專題報告中的三四份，民間很難就此展開研究。
The consultation on Hong Kong 2030 was flawed as it was poorly conducted when Hong Kong 2030 was first launched . Upon commencement of the consultation period only three or four of its 15 topical reports were made public and so it was difficult for the community to conduct relevant studies
而這個涉及未來10多年發展計劃的諮詢期只有短短6個月，比起規模較小的"安老服務計劃方案"的1年諮詢期少了一半。
Besides the consultation period of such a development plan spanning more than 10 years lasted as short as six months only which was just half the length of the consultation period of the Elderly Services Programme Plan where the latter was of a smaller scale
難道政府認為市民提出的概念及意見永遠不足以被採納，甚至敵視市民的意見嗎？
Was it because that as always the Government regarded the ideas and views of the public as something not good enough and thus cannot be accepted?
研究香港10多年後如何發展時，首先要釐清香港現時所面對的問題，這樣才可以幫助我們思考香港未來應朝向甚麼方向前進。
In exploring the direction for Hong Kongs development after 10 years or so it is necessary to sort out in the first place what problems are currently facing Hong Kong as this will shed light on which direction Hong Kong should proceed in future
香港的問題多多，包括貧富懸殊、官商鄉黑、樓價完全無法負擔、嚴重依賴外向型經濟、產業單一化、年輕人無法向上流動，還有安老問題及教育問題，這些問題在我過去半年的議員生涯中已經討論過無數次。
Hong Kong is fraught with a lot of problems among which are wealth gap government - business - rural - triad collusion utterly unaffordable property prices heavy reliance on external oriented economy homogeneity of industries lack of social mobility for young people as well as problems concerning elderly care and education . All these issues have been discussed countless times during my term of office as a Member of this Council in the past six months
但是，《香港2030+》能否真正針對香港所面對的問題而作出處理呢？
Yet whether Hong Kong 2030 can genuinely address those problems facing Hong Kong is what really matters
他引述《香港2030+》所說的主要元素："規劃宜居的高密度城市、迎接新的經濟挑戰與機遇，和創造容量以達至可持續發展。而貫穿這三大元素的一個主要題目是提供土地與空間，和創造發展容量"。
He cited the key elements from Hong Kong 2030 Planning for a liveable high - density city; embracing new economic challenges and opportunities; and creating capacity for sustainable growth
