所以，我會表決反對梁志祥議員的原議案，而支持楊岳橋議員的修正案，因為他在修正案第七項中明確指出，"應考慮先將資源投放於本港的安老服務及規劃，包括盡快落實增加安老院舍及居家安老的 服務名額，讓長者安心在本港或內地安享晚年"。
Therefore I will vote against the original motion raised by Mr LEUNG Che - cheung and for Mr Alvin YEUNGs amendment as it is stated clearly in the seventh point of the latter that the Government should consider as a matter of priority injecting resources into elderly care services and planning in Hong Kong including expeditiously effecting an increase in the number of service places for residential care and ageing in place so that elderly persons can spend their twilight years in Hong Kong or on the Mainland without worries
我再次強調，施政的優次緩急很重要，優先在香港做好公共安老服務，是特區政府及羅致光局長不可推卸的責任。
I reiterate that according the right priority to policies is an important aspect of governance . And prioritizing public elderly care service in Hong Kong is the rightful duty of the SAR Government and of Secretary Dr LAW Chi - kwong
主席，首先，我感謝梁志祥議員今天提出這項議員議案，讓我們有機會進行討論。
President first I wish to thank Mr LEUNG Che - cheung for proposing this Members motion today and giving us an opportunity to discuss this subject
面對人口老化，安老問題迫切，相關討論和 建議亦應該不分黨派，因為我們是共同面對人口老化的。
In face of the ageing population elderly care has become a pressing problem . We should conduct related discussions and make proposals irrespective of political parties and groups because we are facing the ageing population together
可是，在深入討論梁志祥議員今天這項議案前，也許我們應該想一想，在考慮讓更多長者返回內地安老前、在言必大灣區前，我們是否更應該面對每年5,000名在輪候院舍時過世的長者、更不應該忘記等待了13個月，卻仍然要繼續等候家居照顧服務的長者呢？
However before we have an in - depth discussion on Mr LEUNG Che - cheungs motion before we consider whether or not to let more elderly persons to live in the Mainland for their twilight years and before we frequently mention the Guangdong - Hong Kong - Macao Bay Area perhaps we should first think about the 5 000 elderly persons who pass away every year whiling waiting for a place in residential care homes and remind ourselves not to forget the elderly persons who have waited 13 months and are still waiting for home care services
現時本港安老服務不足及千瘡百孔，是大家也知道的事實。
Elderly care services in Hong Kong are inadequate and plagued with problems . This is a fact we all know
政府要做的實事，首先就是盡快增加資源改善輪候問題，而絕非要長者返回內地養老，以截龍方式解決資源不足的問題。
What the Government should do is to pragmatically and expeditiously spend more resources on improving the queuing time rather than encouraging elderly persons to retire in the Mainland so as to cut the queue and solve the problem of inadequate resources
所以，公民黨就議案提出的修訂重點是，應該要先滿足居港安老長者的需求，然後才考慮制訂便利長者返回內地安老的措施。
Hence a major amendment focus of the Civic Party is that we should first meet the needs of elderly persons who spend their twilight years in Hong Kong and then consider formulating measures that can facilitate elderly persons to go to the Mainland for retirement
也許有人會認為我這種想法很短視，而且捨易取難，但我們現時促使政府正視安老政策推出的措施，正正是想及早糾正不良行為，以免這些本應使人受惠的政策，因為監管不力而被貪心的人予取予攜。
Perhaps some people may think that my view lacks foresight and will choose a difficult option rather than an easy one . But the measures we now adopt to force the Government to face squarely the elderly care policy precisely seek to stop undesirable actions early so as to avoid policies that are supposed to be beneficial to the people being abused by greedy people due to lax regulation
在上星期，便有多位透過港府補充勞工計劃來港工作的外勞照顧員到立法會請願，他們所服務的私營安老院多年來對他們無理扣薪、加班沒有"補水"、收取高額勞務費，以及要他們負責照顧長者以外的額外工作，卻又無法得到相關補貼。
Last week a number of non - local personal care workers who had come to work in Hong Kong through the Supplementary Labour Scheme of the Government presented a petition to the Legislative Council . They complain that the elderly care home where they work has been unreasonably withholding their wages defaulting overtime pay charging high labour service fees and asking them to do additional work on top of elderly care without subsidies
所以，他們才要出來申訴，揭穿種種管治黑幕。
They thus presented a petition to review these shady acts of the management
可見，民主派以往要求及倡議監管私營安老院的質素，是絕對有理由的。
It is thus well - justified that the democratic camp has requested or called for monitoring the quality of private elderly care homes
即使並非由於安老院舍醜聞頻生，過往亦不斷有長者或其家人，以行動說明寧願苦等入住津貼院舍，也不願入住私人院舍。
Irrespectively of the numerous scandals involving elderly care homes there have been many elderly persons or their family who chose not to live in private care homes and would rather painstakingly wait for a place in subsidized care homes
可見，入住私人院舍其實也未必可以真正做到安享晚年。
It is thus evident that living in private care homes may not be the means to have truly stable and enjoyable twilight years
香港也算擁有零散的監管制度，但安老院舍的運作仍如此差劣。
There are some regulatory systems in Hong Kong but still the operation of elderly care homes is very poor
更可惜的是，需要入住院舍的長者和殘疾人士，很多也不懂得把被虐待或被欺負的事實說出來。
Worse still many elderly persons or disabled persons who need to stay in care homes do not know how to tell other people they are being abused or bullied
如果長者或殘疾人士身處不受社會福利署或《安老院條例》監管的內地院舍，屆時會出現甚麼情況，或會有多大風險呢？
If elderly persons or disables persons are living in Mainland care homes which are not regulated by the Social Welfare Department SWD or under the Residential Care Homes Ordinance what will happen to them and how big a risk they have to take?
再者，現時內地只有兩間由本港社福機構營運的安老院舍社署有買位，而且相關舍位尚未滿額，議員今天要求社署到內地其他地方買位，究竟他們按甚麼準則提出這要求呢？
Moreover SWD has been purchasing residential care places from two Mainland elderly care homes operated by Hong Kong welfare organizations and these homes still have vacant places available . Members request SWD to purchase residential care places in other places in the Mainland . What criteria do they base their request on?
此外，我想再談居家安老，公民黨特別關心家居照顧服務的名額，一直以來由於服務不足，長者需要輪候13個月才可得到居家安老的支援服務，如果身體稍為健壯的，更可能會被勸退不要採用相關服務，或改為自費使用私營服務，減免輪候之苦。
The service quotas for ageing in place have been a special concern to the Civic Party . Due to insufficient services elderly persons need to wait for 13 months for support services for ageing in places . If the applicants are relatively healthy they are advised to withdraw their application or change to self - financed private services to save from the pain of waiting
如果按照議案建議，參照長者社區照顧服務券試驗計劃，為移民內地的長者提供居家安老支援服務，我擔心情況會等於現時勸人不要賭錢的廣告般，如同"倒錢下海"。
If we truly follow the suggestion in the motion to draw reference from the Pilot Scheme on Community Care Service Voucher for the Elderly and provide home care support services for elderly persons residing on the Mainland I am afraid the situation will be like the anti - gambling advertisement that compares gambling to dumping money into the sea
就此，民間社會為解決輪候綜合家居照顧服務的情況，嘗試以義工配對方式，填補現時的服務空隙，推出一個名為"樂助有里"服務配對計劃。
To alleviate the long queue for integrated home care services some people in the community initiated a service matching scheme in the neighbourhood through volunteer matching to fill the service gap
雖然計劃的試行受助人數不多，但接受服務的長者及協助推行服務的義工，都可以得到助人自助的經驗。
Although the scheme only benefited a limited number of people the elderly service recipients and the volunteers who helped in the service both experienced the benefits of being helped and helping others
我想藉此指出，政府現時未有全力推行或支援這些安老服務，名額才會這麼有限。
I want to take this opportunity to point out that the quotas of these elderly care services are so limited because the Government has not tried its best to implement or support elderly care services
如果特區政府願意資助這些團體的先導計劃，就可以扭轉現時安老服務不足的問題，亦不會造成長者出現只須移居內地就可以輕易取得安老服務支援的想法。
If the Government is willing to subsidize the pilot schemes of these organizations it can reverse the problem of inadequate elderly care services and stop the misconception among the elderly that they can easily obtain elderly care service support if they move to the Mainland
至於有建議把現時的長者及傷殘津貼或醫療券變為可攜式，不再限於廣東省，而可以在其他內地省份使用，公民黨認為更令人擔心和憂慮。
Regarding the proposals of allowing the existing elderly and disabled allowances to be portable and expanding the scope of application of the Health Care Vouchers to not just Guangdong Province but also other Mainland provinces the Civic Party has great concern about them
因為消委會報告指出，現時醫療券被濫用的情況嚴重，有醫療服務機構提高收費，亦有不良商戶慫恿長者購買不必要的藥物，又或多購買一副眼鏡，使用的欺瞞方法種類繁多，根本無法杜絕。
A report of the Consumer Council finds that the usage of Health Care Vouchers has been seriously abused . Some medical service organizations deliberately raise the charges; some unscrupulous traders urge elderly persons to buy medicines they do not need or buy an extra pair of glasses . The deceiving methods are numerous and there is no way to stop them
試問我們又怎能安心把相關的安老金津貼，輕易轉到不良商人及無法監管的人手上呢？
How can we easily hand over the old age allowances without worries to the unscrupulous traders who are not within our scope of regulation?
長者自願移居內地，除了省減輪候之苦外，更大的原因，可能是他們在 內地的網絡較香港廣，他們在內地的親人可以給予更好照顧，使他們願意離開香港返回內地定居。
The reason for elderly persons to move to the Mainland on their own initiative is that they want to save the pain of queuing . But a stronger reason is probably that they have a bigger support network on the Mainland such as having relatives there than in Hong Kong . They are thus willing to leave Hong Kong and return to the Mainland for residence
因此，我們更應該把資源投放在願意留在香港的長者身上。因為，對他們而言，香港就是他們擁有最強人際網絡的地方，香港亦有讓他們得到安老服務的責任。
Hence we should more than ever use the resources on the elderly persons who are willing to stay in Hong Kong because this is the place where they have the strongest personal network . Besides Hong Kong also has the responsibility to provide them with elderly care services
再者，如果要制訂安老服務的長遠指標，計算軟件和硬件、人手培訓和設備興建，以及預計接受服務的人數便相當重要。
Moreover if we are to lay down a long - term target for elderly care services it is very important that we assess the software and hardware manpower training and facility construction and project the number of service recipients
根據社署資料，已經移居內地又符合領取長者津貼的人士數目，廣東計劃是20,000名，福建計劃是6,000名。
According to SWDs information 20 000 and 6 000 elderly persons who have already moved to the Mainland respectively under the Guangdong Scheme and Fujian Scheme are eligible for elderly allowances
香港屬於廣東省的區份，可以想象其他省份的長者人數便會更少。
Hong Kong is located in the Guangdong Province . It is believed that the number of eligible elderly in other provinces is even less
相對於現時香港有100多萬名長者人口，公民黨認為增加津貼和服務安排，讓小部分長者可以安心返回內地養老的建議，有點捨本逐末，絕不恰當。
In contract Hong Kong has over 1 million elderly population . The Civic Party holds that it is putting the cart before the horse and is absolutely inappropriate to provide more allowances and make more service arrangements for the minority elderly persons to return to the Mainland for their twilight years
此外，不得不提的是，剛通過的"一地兩檢"，不是說可以方便內地與香港特區往來嗎？
Moreover another point I must say is that the co - location arrangement which has just been passed is supposed to facilitate people commuting between the Mainland and the Hong Kong SAR
即使長者移居內地，這道方便之門也不會對他們返回香港接受資格審查構成不便，因此，我看不到有充分理由把安老福利津貼轉為可攜式，以及擴展至內地其他省份。
This door of convenience will not block the elderly persons who have already moved to the Mainland from coming back to Hong Kong to receive a means test . I thus cannot see any valid reason to make elderly care benefits and allowances portable and expand the coverage to other Mainland provinces
正因為本地安老服務需求者眾，但服務嚴重不足，所以特區政府的應有之義，就是讓本地長者優先享受服務。
Precisely because of the intense local demand for elderly care services and the acute shortage of such services the SAR Government is duty - bound to let elderly persons in Hong Kong to enjoy the services first
所以，公民黨反對未滿足本地服務需求的情況下，推出跨境安老措施，更不應擅自或在未有充分諮詢的情況下，便把計劃擴展至內地其他省份。
Hence the Civic Party is against launching cross - boundary elderly care measures without first satisfying the local service demand and extending the schemes to other Mainland provinces without permission or thorough consultation
所以，即使我相當尊重今天其他議員提出的修正案，公民黨亦會反對原議案及另外兩位議員提出的修正案。
So despite our due respect for the other amendment proposers today the Civic Party is against the original motion and the amendments proposed by the other two Members
我現在向各位提出的待議議題是：《2018年稅務條例草案》予以三讀並通過。
I now propose the question to you and that is That the Inland Revenue Amendment No . 2 Bill 2018 be read the Third time and do pass
政府於去年就《長遠房屋策略》提交的周年進度報告，把本年起計的10年期內公、私營房屋供應比例定於六比四，而公營房屋供應目標為28萬個。
The Annual Progress Report on the Long Term Housing Strategy submitted by the Government last year set a publicprivate split of 60col40 for the supply of housing units and a public housing supply target of 280 000 units for the 10 - year period starting from this year
然而，政府至今已覓得的用地在未來10年只可提供23萬7000個公營房屋單位。
However the sites which have been identified by the Government so far can provide only 237 000 public housing units in the coming decade
另一方面，近年公屋輪候冊申請人的輪候時間不斷增加，而資助房屋單位售價跟隨熾熱樓市水漲船高，令市民難以負擔。
On the other hand the waiting time for applicants on the Waiting List for public rental housing has been increasing continuously in recent years and the prices of subsidized housing units which have soared in tandem with a heating up property market are beyond the affordability of the public
主席，就郭偉强議員質詢的各個部分，經諮詢發展局後，我現綜合答覆如下。
President after consulting the Development Bureau my consolidated reply to various parts of the question raised by Mr KWOK Wai - keung is as follows . Since the promulgation of the Long Term Housing Strategy LTHS in December 2014 the Government updates the long - term housing demand projection annually and presents a rolling 10 - year housing supply target
然而，香港房屋委員會最近討論相關課題時，部分委員對現行定價機制可否更有效照顧申請人的負擔能力曾表達意見。
However if the affordability criteria cannot be met a higher discount can be offered under the existing pricing mechanism . Nonetheless during recent discussions on the relevant subject some members of the Hong Kong Housing Authority have expressed views on whether the existing pricing mechanism can more effectively address the affordability of the applicants
政府留意到市民對於居屋的定價是否與他們的負擔能力脫節表示關注，行政長官最近出席立法會行政長官質詢時間時已表示會親自了解這課題。
The Government is aware of public concerns about whether prices of HOS flats have gone beyond their affordability . At the recent Legislative Council Chief Executives Question Time the Chief Executive has indicated that she would personally look into this subject
至於小蠔灣車廠用地的上蓋發展方面，作為多管齊下土地供應措施的其中一環，發展局一直與香港鐵路有限公司探討現有鐵路相關用地的發展潛力。
As regards the topside development at the Siu Ho Wan Depot Site as part of the multi - pronged strategy to increase land supply the Development Bureau has been working with the MTR Corporation Limited MTRCL to explore the development potential of railway - related sites
根據港鐵公司的技術研究，該發展可於中長期提供不少於14,000個單位及相關社區設施。
According to MTRCLs technical studies the topside development at the Siu Ho Wan Depot Site can provide no less than 14 000 flats and related community facilities in the medium to long term
相關的分區規劃大綱草圖於2018年3月29日至2018年5月29日刊憲供公眾查閱，城市規劃委員會稍後會進行公開聆聽會。
The draft Siu Ho Wan Outline Zoning Plan OZP was gazetted for public inspection from 29 March to 29 May . The Town Planning Board TPB will conduct public hearings later
政府理解社會上對公營房屋的訴求，並會在籌劃發展項目時一併考慮。
The Government is aware of the demand for public housing in the community and will take them into consideration in the planning work on the development project
小蠔灣用地現時批予港鐵公司用作鐵路工場和維修車廠，進行上蓋發展也必須確保工場和車廠維持正常運作，以支援鐵路服務。
The Siu Ho Wan Depot Site is currently granted to MTRCL for use as a railway workshop and a maintenance depot . In taking forward the topside development it is also necessary to ensure that the normal operation of the workshop and depot is maintained in supporting railway services
上蓋發展的房屋類別及比例，以及是否需要增設小蠔灣鐵路站等發展細節，有待政府及港鐵公司進一步研究和商討，當中需要考慮車廠運作 和上蓋發展的銜接事宜、地契條款事宜、財務和實施安排、港鐵公司作為現有土地承批人及鐵路車廠營運者如何參與等因素，大原則是以符合公眾利益，而且切實可行的方式，適切地釋出用地的發展潛力，回應市民對住屋的殷切需求。
Various development details including the housing type and ratio of the topside development and the need to provide the Siu Ho Wan Railway Station etc are to be further examined and discussed by the Government and MTRCL . Among others it is necessary to consider the interface between the depot operations and topside development matters on lease conditions financial and implementation arrangements how MTRCL as the current lessee and depot operator will participate etc . The major principle is that the development potential of the Site should be unlocked in a timely manner to meet the publics keen demand for housing through practicable arrangements in the public interest
於2018年3月刊憲的分區規劃大綱草圖說明，把小蠔灣車廠用地劃作上述"其他指定用途"後，日後在這地帶內擬議進行任何商業/住宅發展，均須向城規會另行提交發展藍圖，以取得規劃許可，屆時會列出用地的商業/住宅比例和房屋類別比例，供城規會考慮。
The draft OZP gazetted in March 2018 specified that after the Site is zoned for Other Specified Uses any future proposed commercialresidential development in the zone requires the submission of a layout plan to TPB to obtain planning permission . By then the commercialresidential ratio and the ratio by housing type will be set out for TPBs consideration
我想問政府究竟何時才會研究把資助公營房屋的售價與市價脫鈎？
I would like to ask the Government When exactly will it consider unpegging the selling prices of subsidized sale flats from market prices?
我們在房屋事務委員會會議及很多場合中均已指出，現行的資助房屋定價機制基本上已考慮了市民的負擔能力，亦可就折扣率作出適度的調整。
As we have already pointed out at meetings of the Panel on Housing and on many occasions the current pricing mechanism of subsidized sale flats has basically taken the affordability of the general public into consideration and appropriate adjustments to the discount offered are also allowed
行政長官亦清楚表明會親自了解有關情況，稍後亦會盡快作出決定。
The Chief Executive has also indicated that she would personally look into the subject and a decision will be made as soon as possible later
我相信在這前提下，也許應讓政府團隊有更大空間，待得出決定後盡快公布，相信大家屆時將有詳細的認知。
I think under this premise perhaps we should allow more room for the governance team to arrive at and announce its decision at the earliest possible time so that we would all obtain a detailed understanding of the matter by then
我現時不能就此作出太多評論。
I am not in a position to comment too much at the current stage
主席，我的具體補充質詢是，當局會否制訂一個較具彈性的供應比例機制，例如按5年的供應量周期，因應社會上公私營房屋的供應進度，就供應量作出適當的調整？
President my specific supplementary question is Whether the Government will consider introducing a more flexible mechanism for determining the publicprivate housing supply ratio so that a five - year review cycle for example would be adopted to make appropriate adjustments to its housing supply target in response to the prevailing production rates of public and private housing?
所以，連達到60：40這個目標比例也需要繼續努力的情況下，若把目標比例提升為70：30，將更屬可望而不可即。
Hence when it is still necessary for us to make continuing efforts to achieve the target ratio of 60col40 a higher ratio of 70col30 will only be something that is within sight but beyond reach
當局的態度是，會盡最大努力，而且無論過往或現在，我們均與發展局有多方面的合作。
The attitude of the Administration is that we will try our best and in this connection the Transport and Housing Bureau has always been in cooperation with the Development Bureau on many fronts
例如我們曾把一些原本規劃作私營房屋發展的土地，轉作興建公營房屋之用，並就已覓得的210幅土地進行規劃工作，藉以提供更多房屋用地，部分用於建造公營房屋。
For example we have converted some sites originally zoned for private housing development to public housing sites and have made planning changes to 210 identified sites thereby providing more land sites for housing production with some of them earmarked for public housing development
所以，整體而言，我們必須在公營房屋及私人樓宇兩方面作出平衡。
Therefore generally speaking we have to balance the provision of public and private housing
現時社會上有不少人提出興建組合屋，又或謝偉銓議員早前曾建議在公屋加建樓層。
A number of proposals have been put forward in society such as the construction of modular housing or a suggestion made earlier by Mr Tony TSE to build additional storeys in public housing blocks
政府會否就這些非傳統的額外增加房屋供應的方法，優先在財務和政策上作出特別的處理，又或交由專責部門跟進？
With regard to these unconventional ways of generating additional housing supply will priority be given by the Government to provide them with some special treatments financially and the necessary policy support or refer them to a dedicated department for follow up?
在公營房屋緊絀的情況下，當局在2017年的施政報告提出多項過渡性房屋和社會房屋舉措，希望正在輪候公屋的市民的居住情況能得到改善，並紓緩其困境。
Given the acute shortage of public housing units the Government has proposed a number of measures in the 2017 Policy Address for the provision of transitional housing and community housing in the hope of improving the living condition of those who are waiting for allocation of public housing units and relieving their hardship
所以，就組合屋甚或謝偉銓議員提出在公營房屋額外加建住宅單位的建議，我們正努力考慮。
Hence we are giving active consideration to the idea of constructing modular housing or even the suggestion made by Mr Tony TSE to provide additional housing units in public housing blocks
事實上，鄭議員早前已曾與房屋署的同事開會，就有關建議進行深入的交流和研究。
As a matter of fact a meeting between Mr CHENG and our colleagues in the Housing Department was held earlier to conduct an in - depth exchange and study on the relevant proposals
所以，在這方面，我們會按既定目標及市民的訴求繼續努力。
Therefore we will keep up our efforts in this connection to achieve various established objectives and respond to public aspirations
我在6月6日的會議曾提出書面質詢，問及私人房屋用地的供應。
I have raised a written question on the supply of sites for private housing at the Council meeting of 6 June
發展局在當時的答覆中提到，小蠔灣車廠發展項目屬中、長期發展潛力土地，但卻沒有直接回答有關熟地儲備庫的問題。
In its reply given then the Development Bureau said that the Siu Ho Wan Depot Site was a site with housing development potential in the medium - to - long term but a direct answer was not given to my question concerning the setting up of a reserve for spade - ready sites
這次郭偉强議員進一步問及利用小蠔灣車廠發展公營房屋的可行性，但局長答覆仍然是差不多。
In his question raised today Mr KWOK Wai - keung has asked further about the feasibility of using the Siu Ho Wan Depot Site for public housing development but the reply given by the Secretary is more or less the same
據我所知，雖然東涌線仍採用擁有權模式發展，即上蓋物業的發展權屬港鐵公司所有，但小蠔灣車廠不在此列。
To my knowledge although the development of the Tung Chung Line is implemented under the ownership approach and the property development rights on top of the stations are granted to MTRCL the Siu Ho Wan Depot Site is an exception
我認為這是一個很好的契機，政府完全有權取回這片熟地，無論是作公私營合作發展或全數用作興建公營房屋，對滿足基層市民住屋需要均無疑是一件好事。
I consider this a very good opportunity for the Government to exercise its right to resume this spade - ready site for housing development and no matter the site is used for public - private partnership development or totally for public housing development this is undoubtedly helpful to meeting the housing demand of grass - roots people
我想再次詢問政府，為了達到10年建屋目標，會否採取更主動的做法，包括盡快建立熟地儲備庫？
I would like to ask the Government once again that in order to achieve its rolling 10 - year housing supply target will a more proactive approach be adopted including the setting up of a reserve for spade - ready sites as soon as possible?
現時小蠔灣車廠用地是以私人協約方式批租予港鐵公司，以作鐵路工場和維修車廠之用，批租年期由1995年至2050年。
The Siu Ho Wan Depot Site is currently granted to MTRCL by way of private treaty for use as a railway workshop and a maintenance depot and the lease period runs from 1995 to 2050
所以，就着小蠔灣車廠用地，不論是政府土地或已批租土地，我們均持有非常正面和開放的態度。
Therefore when it comes to the Siu Ho Wan Depot Site be it government land or leased land our attitude is very positive and open
至於熟地儲備方面，眾所周知，土地供應專責小組正在進行諮詢，就短、中、長期的土地供應選項諮詢市民，並希望聽取大家的意見。
As for a reserve for spade - ready sites we all know that the Task Force on Land Supply is conducting a public consultation on various land supply options in the short medium and long term with a view to gauging public views and receiving public opinions
我們希望在社會取得共識後，能就土地選項達成共同的理解，減少不必要的爭拗，從而令當局更加順利地進行有關的工作，所以希望大家可就此向我們提供更多意見。
We hope that a common understanding of these land supply options can be achieved after a social consensus has been reached so as to minimize unnecessary disputes and enable the Administration to take forward the relevant work more smoothly . It is therefore our wish that members of the public would put forth more views in this respect
關於首次置業計劃，政府預備在今年年底撥出土地，在安達臣道推行試驗計劃，而在首次置業計劃下出售的房屋，將計入私人住宅物業的供應量。
With regard to home starter schemes the Government is planning to make available a site on Anderson Road at the end of this year for the introduction of the Starter Homes Pilot Scheme . Flats sold under the Scheme will be included in the statistics for private housing supply
我想詢問政府，除了撥出土地，當局會否有更加大膽的舉措，例如由市區重建局擔當牽頭的角色，提供推行首次置業計劃所需要的土地？
I would like to ask the Government Whether bolder measures apart from the granting of land will be adopted for the Urban Renewal Authority URA for example to take the lead in providing land sites needed for the introduction of home starter schemes?
無論如何，政府團隊內由特首以至我們每一位官員，均相當關心市民的居住情況。
In any case every one of us in the governance team from the Chief Executive to each senior official is very concerned about the living condition of the general public
