我相信，這須視乎實際從日本撤離港人回港的過程及實際操作的時間表而定，但我們會切實確保有關的航機會在完成所需的徹底清潔及消毒後，才再作商業營運。
I believe it all depends on the actual evacuation process of Hong Kong residents from Japan to Hong Kong and the actual operation timetable . We will nonetheless practically ensure that the relevant planes will not be used for business operations before they are thoroughly cleansed and disinfected as required
我們當下的問題不單是樓市，還有交通運輸、零售、餐飲和娛樂等問題，更有市民就業的問題，這些問題都必須解決。

我完全尊重石議員的意見，稍後亦會就各個範疇徵詢在座議員的意見。
I fully respect the views of Mr SHEK and will later seek views from Members on different issues
我相信當下的問題，不單政府需要全力以赴，亦希望香港社會各階層也全力以赴。
In my view the current problems can only be solved if different sectors of Hong Kong are willing to go all out with the Government
主席，本人謹以小組委員會主席的身份，動議以本人名義提出的議案，議案內容已載列於議程內。
President in my capacity as Chairman of the Subcommittee I move the motion under my name as printed on the Agenda
為了讓小組委員會有足夠時間進行審議工作，委員同意由本人動議一項議案，將該項附屬法例的修訂期限延展至2021年1月6日的立法會會議。
To allow sufficient time for the Subcommittee to conduct the scrutiny work members agreed that a motion be moved by me to extend the period for amending the subsidiary legislation to the Council meeting on 6 January 2021
主席，我動議二讀《2020年印花稅條例草案》，以落實施政報告的建議，由11月26日起撤銷非住宅物業雙倍從價印花稅，並回復以第二標準稅率徵收非住宅物業從價印花稅。
President I move the Second Reading of the Stamp Duty Amendment Bill 2020 the Bill which seeks to implement the proposal in the Policy Address to abolish the Doubled Ad Valorem Stamp Duty DSD on non - residential property transactions and revert the ad valorem stamp duty rates applicable to non - residential property transactions to the Scale 2 rates with effect from 26 November
過去一段時間，非住宅物業的售價及需求已顯著回落。
Prices and demand for non - residential properties have been dropping notably over a period of time
私人寫字樓、零售業樓宇及分層工廠大廈售價指數從高位回落13%至19%；成交量亦較推出雙倍從價印花稅前下跌超過八成，因此，現時是適當時候撤銷雙倍從價印花稅。
The price indices for private office retail and flatted factory space have declined from a peak by 13 % to 19 % . The transaction volumes have also dropped by more than 80 % when compared with those before the implementation of DSD . Therefore it is now the appropriate time to abolish DSD
建議可利便企業出售非住宅物業套現，應付因經濟下行而出現的財政問題或現金需求，緩減疫情對本港經濟及商業活動的衝擊。
The proposal can facilitate selling of non - residential property by businesses that are encountering financial predicament or liquidity needs because of the economic downturn mitigating the impact of the pandemic on Hong Kongs economy and business activities
為了使有需要的業主盡早受惠於撤銷雙倍從價印花稅的建議，行政長官已行使法定權力作出《2020年公共收入保障令》，使《條例草案》於《命令》有效期間具有十足法律效力。
To allow the property owners in need to benefit from the proposed abolition of DSD as soon as possible the Chief Executive has made the Public Revenue Protection Stamp Duty Order 2020 the Order by exercising her statutory powers to give full force and effect of law to the Bill so long as the Order remains in force
《命令》維持有效最多4個月，即有效至2021年3月25日。
The Order will remain in force for four months at most ie . until 25 March 2021
在此期間，我們會爭取盡早完成立法審議程序，以確立這項便商利民的措施，亦希望得到各位議員支持。
Meanwhile we will strive to complete the legislative process as early as possible so as to put in place this measure for the convenience and benefit of the people . We also hope we will get the support of Members
我們已於11月25日向立法會發出參考資料摘要，解釋撤銷雙倍從價印花稅的建議。
We issued a Legislative Council brief to the Legislative Council on 25 November explaining the proposal of abolishing DSD
我希望得到議員支持，盡快通過《條例草案》。
I hope Members will support the early passage of the Bill
主席，本年8月至10月經季節性調整的失業率為16年來最高的百分之六點四，失業人數高達257800人。
President the seasonally adjusted unemployment rate from August to October this year was 6.4 % the highest in 16 years with the number of unemployed persons reaching as high as 257 800
由於政府由本月起不再透過"保就業"計劃向僱主發放工資補貼，有學者預期越來越多企業為節流而裁員或推出停薪留職計劃，以致失業率及就業不足率在未來數月持續上升。
As the Government no longer from this month onwards provides employers with wage subsidies through the Employment Support Scheme some academics have predicted that more and more enterprises will lay off their staff or introduce no - pay leave schemes so as to manage costs thereby causing the unemployment rate and underemployment rate to rise continuously in the coming few months
主席，議員的質詢涉及多項政策範疇，經諮詢政務司司長辦公室、商務及經濟發展局、公務員事務局及民政事務局後，我現答覆如下： 一 香港特區政府充分明白持續的2019冠狀病毒病疫情和相關防疫及抗疫措施對市民日常生活及企業營運會帶來一定及不同程度的影響，令不少行業百上加斤，經營困難。
President the question raised by the Member involves a number of policy purviews . Having consulted the Chief Secretary for Administrations Office Commerce and Economic Development Bureau Civil Service Bureau and Home Affairs Bureau my reply is as follows 1 The Hong Kong Special Administrative Region Government fully understands that the persistent COVID - 19 epidemic and relevant anti - epidemic measures have created certain and different extent of impact upon the daily lives of individuals and operation of enterprises . These have added considerable burden and caused operating difficulties to various sectors
面對此嚴峻的挑戰，政府迅速推出防疫抗疫基金，一方面提升香港的整體防疫抗疫能力，另一方面向受疫情重創或受政府防疫抗疫和社交距離措施影響的行業和市民提供適切的援助。
In view of these challenges the Government has expeditiously introduced the Anti - epidemic Fund AEF to enhance our overall anti - epidemic capability and provide suitable relief to sectors and individuals hard hit by the epidemic or affected by the Governments anti - epidemic and social distancing measures
三輪基金獲立法會財務委員會批准的總承擔金額為1,559億元。
The Legislative Council Finance Committee approved a total financial commitment of 155.9 billion for the three rounds of AEF
截至2020年10月30日，基金督導委員會已批出99個項目，總承擔金額約1,550億元，涵蓋多個行業，並向不同有需要組群提供援助。
As at 30 October 2020 the AEF Steering Committee has approved 99 measures with a total financial commitment of around 155 billion covering a wide spectrum of sectors and groups in need
為紓緩受疫情影響而日趨嚴峻的失業情況，政府已在防疫抗疫基金預留款項，在兩年內於公營及私營機構創造約30,000個有時限的職位。
To relieve the worsening unemployment situation due to the epidemic the Government has earmarked funding provision under AEF to create 30 000 time - limited jobs in the public and private sectors in the coming two years
除了國泰航空公司大裁員外，最近一間旅行社及一間電視台亦開始裁員，可見新一波裁員引起的失業潮即將到來。
Apart from the massive layoffs of Cathay Pacific Airways Limited a travel agent and a television station have recently cut jobs indicating the imminence of a new wave of unemployment
面對這個浪潮，我想問局長:政府將會一嚴陣以待，推出新的支援措施；二到出現失業潮才臨渴掘井，見步行步；還是三麻木不仁呢？
In the face of such a wave may I ask the Secretary whether the Government will 1 address the matter seriously and introduce new supportive measures; 2 take action at the eleventh hour and play it by ear after the unemployment wave struck; or 3 adopt an apathetic attitude?
主席，我剛才在主體答覆中提到，紓困措施其中最重要的一環，就是創造就業機會。
President as I mentioned in the main reply one of the most important aspects of the relief measures is to create job opportunities
我希望這些就業機會能夠惠及可能需要轉業或失業的人士。
I hope that these job opportunities will benefit people who may have to change jobs or those who are unemployed
大家剛才提到，現在有不少公司裁員，包括旅行社和昨天解僱大批員工的大型新聞機構，還有很多僱員現正停薪留職。
Members mentioned the recent layoffs of a number of companies including travel agents the massive dismissal of employees in a large press organization yesterday and the fact that many employees have been placed on no - pay leave
坦白說，我大概猜到局長稍後會怎樣回答我，但政府現時的抗疫力度確實不足，既沒有第三輪"保就業"計劃，又沒有失業援助金。
Frankly speaking I can probably guess how the Secretary will reply to my question later but the Governments anti - epidemic efforts are really inadequate . It has neither introduced a third tranche of ESS nor provided any unemployment benefits
政府說的"保就業、救失業"，是否只是一句口號？
Is the Governments statement of preserving employment and assisting the jobless merely a slogan?
政府現正繼續努力招聘其餘2萬個職位，我們相信這些措施能夠減低失業率。
At present the Government is striving to conduct recruitment exercises for the remaining 20 000 vacancies . We believe these measures can reduce the unemployment rate
主席，根據最新數字，破產欠薪保障基金在今年6月至9月接獲近1100宗個案，涉及的款項達8,800萬元，單是9月就有431宗，涉及3,835萬元。
President according to the latest figures the Protection of Wages on Insolvency Fund the Fund has received nearly 1 100 applications for ex gratia payments from June to September this year involving a total amount of 88 million . In September alone there are already 431 applications involving 38.35 million
主席，由於公司倒閉而未能支付欠薪、假期薪金、代通知金以至遣散費，僱員將大受影響。
President with the closure of companies employees are seriously affected as they fail to get their wages in arrear leave pay wages in lieu of notice and severance payments
主席，關於失業人數，主體質詢提到香港有257800人失業，失業率為6.4%，但實際上，很多自僱人士自疫情開始後，處於瀕臨失業或半失業之間。
President according to the main reply there are currently 257 800 unemployed persons in Hong Kong and the unemployment rate is 6.4 % . But in fact many self - employed persons have been on the verge of unemployment or underemployment since the outbreak of the epidemic
政府只是對其中4萬人例如我的業界給予數千元資助，其他絕大多數人至今仍得不到一分錢的資助。
Among this group of people only 40 000 people such as members of my constituency received a subsidy of a few thousand dollars from the Government while the majority of the self - employed persons cannot get any subsidy so far
主席，正如馬逢國議員指出，很多自僱人士得不到援助。
President as pointed out by Mr MA Fung - kwok many self - employed persons cannot get any assistance
主席，即使是免遣返聲請人士，政府也會透過香港國際社會服務社向他們派發食物券，當局可否同樣向領取失業綜援的人派發食物券或呼籲超市幫助他們？
President as the Government has distributed food vouchers to non - refoulement claimants through the International Social Service Hong Kong Branch will the authorities likewise distribute food vouchers to recipients of CSSA unemployment support or urge supermarkets to offer help?
我們較早前亦已向立法會財務委員會申請額外資源，為食物銀行提供一些現金券和食物，以派發給有需要人士。
We had also sought additional funding from the Finance Committee of the Legislative Council earlier for food banks to distribute cash coupons and food to the needy
主席，很多人擔心"保就業"計劃一旦結束，裁員潮便出現。
President many people are worried that once ESS ends waves of redundancies will strike
早前國泰航空和怡中航空裁員、永安旅遊裁員，而昨天有線新聞部亦裁員。
Cathay Pacific Airways Limited Jardine Aviation Services and Wing On Travel laid off their employees earlier and the news department of Cable TV dismissed some staff members yesterday
有工友告訴我，SARS期間只是支撐數個月，還應付得來，但現在疫情已經接近1年，他們仍然看不到曙光，可謂彈盡糧絕，甚至擔心某些行業會全行覆沒。
Some workers told me that they survived SARS because it lasted only a few months but this epidemic has continued for almost a year and they still cannot see any ray of hope . They are left with no money or food and they are worried that some industries may even be wiped out altogether
施政報告當然有提及協助工友走出困境，但措施欠缺新意，政府既拒絕推出失業援助金，又拒絕推出失業貸款基金。
The Policy Address has certainly mentioned helping workers find a way out of the predicament but the measures lack novelty . The Government has refused to introduce unemployment benefits or set up an unemployment loan fund
局長剛才在主體答覆中指出，"政府仍會視乎疫情發展及不同行業的情況檢視紓困措施的效用，並在有需要時推出優化措施"。
The Secretary pointed out earlier in the main reply that the Government will having regard to the development of the epidemic and the situation of different sectors review the effectiveness of the relief measures and introduce enhancements if needed
其實，局長心目中或政府正準備推出甚麼優化措施？
In fact what are the enhancements in the Secretarys mind or what are the enhancements to be introduced by the Government?
主席，近期失業率這麼高，大家都關注政府如何提供支援，但局長一直不贊成推出失業援助金。
President since the recent unemployment rate is so high we are all concerned about how the Government will provide assistance but the Secretary has all along opposed to introducing unemployment benefits
一般失業人士如果要真正得到政府的援助，只能夠循綜援這個途徑。
If unemployed persons in general really want to receive government assistance applying for CSSA may be the only way
我想局長解答一下，如果只是短期兩三個月的需要，能否得到政府援助？
May I ask the Secretary whether a person who only needs short - term assistance for two or three months can get government assistance?
主席，大家對綜援制度可能普遍有點誤解。
President there may be a general misunderstanding about the CSSA system
第一，在綜援系統下，領取失業綜援的人大部分流轉非常快，很多只是領取數個月，並在1年內離開綜援系統。
First under the system the turnover rate of most CSSA recipients is fast; many of them only received payments for a few months and then left the CSSA system within a year
我多謝議員提出這項質詢，也希望大家明白，市民如果收入減少，當然可以申請在職家庭津貼；同樣地，如果工時不足，仍然可以申請綜援。
I thank the Member for asking this supplementary question . I also hope that Members will understand that a person with reduced income can certainly apply for Working Family Allowance . Similarly he can also apply for CSSA if he is underemployed
綜援有一個"低收入人士"類別，可協助這類人士，而健全人士一樣可受惠於剛才提及的一些措施。
There is a low - income earners category under the CSSA Scheme and able - bodied persons can also benefit from some of the measures mentioned earlier
內地金融科技公司螞蟻集團原定於本年11月5日在香港及上海的交易所同步上市。
Ant Group a Mainland financial technology fintech company was originally scheduled to be dually listed on the stock exchanges in Hong Kong and Shanghai on 5 November this year
上市前兩日，上海證券交易所基於該公司所處的金融科技監管環境發生變化等原因，暫緩該公司在該交易所上市。

正如主體質詢所述，螞蟻集團在今年11月3日宣布暫緩在香港上市。
As mentioned in the main question Ant Group announced on 3 November this year its suspension of listing in Hong Kong
政府不會評論個別上市申請的細節。
The Government will not comment on the details of individual listing applications
就香港整體上市制度的規管及安排而言，在諮詢證券及期貨事務監察委員會及港交所後，我現回覆如下： 一及三 一般而言，上市申請人及上市公司須符合其註冊地、業務營運地，以及上市地的各類監管要求。
As far as the regulatory framework under Hong Kongs overall listing regime is concerned having consulted the Securities and Futures Commission SFC and HKEX my reply is as follows 1 and 3 Generally speaking listing applicants and listed companies have to comply with the respective regulatory requirements of its place of incorporation place of business operation and place of listing
若上市申請人或上市公司在多個司法管轄區營運業務及/或上市，則須符合多個司法管轄區的要求。
If listing applicants or listed companies operate their business andor list in multiple jurisdictions they have to comply with the requirements of multiple jurisdictions
就於香港上市的公司而言，監管機構一直按上述法規審批上市申請。
As far as companies listed in Hong Kong are concerned regulatory authorities have been approving listing applications in accordance with the above mentioned laws and regulations
上市委員會亦會審核招股文件，確保它們有充分的業務風險披露。
The Listing Committee will also vet listing documents including prospectus to ensure that there is sufficient business risk disclosure
上市委員會審核招股申請的主要原則包括考慮申請人是否適合上市、其合規要求，以及招股文件是否已就重要事項作出充分披露。
The major principles adopted by the Listing Committee in approving listing applications include considering whether applicants are suitable for listing their compliance of regulatory requirements and whether sufficient disclosure of material matters have been made in the listing documents
如上市申請人屬內地H股，申請人亦須先獲得中國證券監督管理委員會的批准。
If listing applicants are Mainland H - share companies they must also obtain prior approval from the China Securities Regulatory Commission
即使上市申請人的申請獲上市委員會批准後，港交所及上市委員會仍會繼續監察它們能否持續符合法規的要求。
Even after a listing applicants case has obtained the Listing Committees approval HKEX and the Listing Committee will still monitor whether it can comply with the requirements of the regulations on an ongoing basis
在招股文件發布後，上市申請人仍需負責評估該公司的業務和適用的監管規定，以確定該公司的財務及交易狀況，以及有關業務或監管環境是否出現需知會投資者的重大變化。
Listing applicants will still be required to be responsible for assessing their businesses and the applicable regulatory requirements in order to ascertain whether there have been material changes in the companys financial and trading positions as well as the relevant business and regulatory environment warranting notification to investors after the listing documents are published
如有需要，港交所會向上市申請人及其保薦人查詢，並按情況要求申請人對招股書作出補充。
If necessary HKEX will enquire listing applicants and their sponsors and request the listing applicants to provide supplementary information on its prospectus as appropriate
香港的監管機構一直，並繼續與內地等司法管轄區的監管機構保持有效的監管溝通。
The regulatory authorities in Hong Kong have been and will continue to maintain effective regulatory communications with regulatory authorities in jurisdictions such as the Mainland
螞蟻集團的上市申請亦依循上述的制度進行。
The listing application of Ant Group was also processed in accordance with the above mentioned mechanism
二 香港市場過去已有處理IPO在認購期屆滿後決定不進行上市的經驗。
2 The Hong Kong market has the experience of handling cases in which listing applicants decide not to proceed with listing after the end of the IPO subscription period
事實上，過去亦曾有上市申請人在IPO認購期屆滿後決定不進行上市。
In fact there were cases in which listing applicants have decided not to proceed with listing after the end of the IPO subscription period
監管機構會確保螞蟻集團在退還申請股款的安排有序進行。
The regulatory authorities will ensure that the refund arrangements by Ant Group will be conducted in an orderly manner
香港證券業一直競爭激烈，張議員很清楚這一點。
The competition of Hong Kongs securities industry has been intense . Mr CHEUNG should be well aware of this
我注意到一些銀行或券商一直有透過不同途徑，包括豁免IPO的申請費用及經紀佣金等方式吸引更多客戶。
I notice that some banks or brokerage firms have been using different approaches including waiving the IPO application fees and brokerage commissions to attract more clients
對於業界透過價格競爭的商業行為，監管機構一般不會干預。
The regulatory authorities generally do not intervene the industrys price competition which is part of their business operation
監管機構主要關注退回認購款項是否以公平有序的方式進行。
The main concern of the regulatory authorities is on whether the refund of subscription money is conducted in a fair and orderly manner
我注意到近日螞蟻集團暫緩H股上市而退還申請款項予投資者時，一些銀行及券商決定豁免或減收客戶以借貸方式認購股份的利息。
I notice that in refunding the subscription money to investors following Ant Groups recent suspension of H - share listing some banks and brokerage firms have decided to waive or reduce the interests payable by clients who had subscribed the shares through loans
我們相信各家銀行或券商會因應自身商業考量就適合自己的營運策略作出決定。
We believe that every bank or brokerage firm will decide on the business strategy that best fits its respective circumstances having regard to its own commercial considerations
事實上，並非所有大型銀行或券商均在今次螞蟻集團招股的申請中豁免有關利息收費，據我們了解，有個別大型銀行有繼續向客戶收取相關利息，而有部分中小型券商亦有豁免或減收該費用。
In fact not all large - scale banks or brokerage firms have waived the relevant interest charges in respect of the Ant Group subscription applications . As far as we understand some large banks have charged their clients on the relevant interests as usual while some small and medium - sized brokerage firms have waived or reduced the charges
因此有關決定純粹以商業為考量，而未必與銀行或券商的規模有必然關係。
The relevant decision is therefore purely based on commercial considerations and does not necessarily relate to the scale of the banks or the brokerage firms
我們暫未見到有不公平競爭的情況出現。
We have not seen any unfair competition so far
就認購新股的整體安排及流程而言，港交所現正就"香港首次公開招股結算程序現代化"進行諮詢，目的是透過嶄新網上服務，使市場參與者及監管機構在更流暢及數碼化的環境下處理新股認購，一方面提升效率，另一方面能減少在過程中需鎖定的資金，相信能有利市場及業界的業務發展。
In terms of the overall arrangements and processes for IPO subscription HKEX is conducting a consultation on New Proposal to Modernise Hong Kong IPO Settlement Process .

我歡迎社會各界在諮詢期內就優化新股上市安排向港交所提交意見。
I encourage all to provide their views on the enhancement of IPO arrangements to HKEX within the consultation period
代理主席，這次螞蟻集團因為自身問題而取消上市，責任誰屬顯而易見，但在事件中蒙受損失的卻是中小型券商和廣大投資者。
Deputy President the listing of Ant Group was called off due to the companys own problems . While it is easy to tell who should be held responsible for the withdrawal small and medium - sized brokerage firms and the investing public are the ones who suffered losses in this incident
我希望政府能就責任問題訂立明確規定，好讓投資者和業界日後對投資新股更有信心。
I hope the Government will draw up clear rules to provide for the accountability issue so as to boost the confidence of investors and the trade in future IPO investments
當局會否關注保薦人、港交所和證監會的責任？
Will the authorities look into the responsibilities of the sponsors HKEX and SFC?
是否應對現行保薦人制度和責任問題作出全面檢討？
Should the existing sponsor regime and the accountability issue be reviewed comprehensively?
多謝張議員的補充質詢。
I thank Mr CHEUNG for his supplementary question
香港的上市審批工作按照一套十分嚴謹的制度進行。
The listing approval in Hong Kong is conducted under a stringent regime
正如我剛才在主體答覆中提到，若上市申請人在多個司法管轄區營運業務或上市，便須符合多個司法管轄區的監管要求。
As I mentioned in the main reply just now if listing applicants operate their business or list in multiple jurisdictions they have to comply with the regulatory requirements of multiple jurisdictions
就於香港上市的公司而言，監管機構一直按《證券及期貨條例》、《證券及期貨規則》和《上市規則》等法規審批上市申請。
As far as companies listed in Hong Kong are concerned regulatory authorities have been approving listing applications in accordance with the laws and regulations such as the Securities and Futures Ordinance the Securities and Futures Rules and the Listing Rules
在審批過程中，上市委員會會審核招股文件，確保招股文件有充分的業務風險披露。

The major principles adopted by the Listing Committee in approving listing applications include considering whether applicants are suitable for listing whether they comply with the regulatory requirements and whether they can maintain a fair and orderly market after share issuance
螞蟻集團的上市申請同樣依循上述制度進行。
The listing application of Ant Group was also processed in accordance with the above mentioned mechanism
關於張議員剛才提到螞蟻集團這宗特別的個案，我們不會評論個別申請人的情況，但就整體制度而言，港交所作為前線監管機構，負責按《上市規則》審視上市申請，上市委員會亦會審視上市申請和招股文件的信息披露，包括剛才所述的申請人是否適合上市和是否符合合規要求等。
Regarding Ant Group a special case mentioned by Mr CHEUNG just now we will not comment on the case of a specific applicant . Yet speaking of the listing regime as a whole HKEX is the frontline regulatory authority responsible for approving listing applications in accordance with the Listing Rules while the Listing Committee is responsible for vetting the information disclosed in the listing applications and listing documents to consider whether the applicants are suitable for listing and whether they have complied with the regulatory requirements etc as I just said
