President the work of the Panel has been set out in detail in the report . I would like to take this opportunity to thank members for supporting the work of the Panel
麥美娟議員就"房屋事務委員會2017-2018年度報告"向本會發言。
Ms Alice MAK will address the Council on the Report of the Panel on Housing 2017 - 2018
主席，我謹以房屋事務委員會主席的身份，向立法會提交事務委員會2017-2018年度的工作報告，並匯報數項重點工作。
President in my capacity as Chairman of the Panel on Housing the Panel I submit to the Legislative Council the report of the work of the Panel for the 2017 - 2018 session and report on several major areas of work of the Panel
在公共房屋供應方面，政府在長遠房屋策略下，訂定未來10年公共租住房屋的供應目標為20萬個單位，但公屋輪候冊上的申請人數目眾多，並不斷增加。
On public housing supply the Government has set the ten - year supply target at 200 000 public rental housing PRH units under the Long Term Housing Strategy LTHS but the huge number of PRH applicants on the waiting list just keeps growing
委員擔心，若當局未能物色足夠土地，將難以達到公屋的供應目標。委員促請政府當局增加公營房屋的供應，以及指定更多原先預留作發展私營房屋用途的土地，供香港房屋委員會興建公營房屋。
Worrying that it would be difficult to meet the supply target of PRH housing should the Government fail to secure adequate housing sites members urged the Government to increase public housing supply while reallocating more of those sites originally earmarked for private housing developments to the Hong Kong Housing Authority HA for construction of public housing
鑒於一般公屋申請人的輪候時間遠較房委會所訂平均約3年獲首次編配單位的目標為長，而目前公屋建屋進度未如理想，委員向政府當局提出多項增加房屋供應的建議，包括︰物色更多"熟地"，供房委會興建公營房屋；加快非"熟地"的發展過程；透過公私營合作模式，把現時由私人發展商擁有的農地改作住宅用途；適度放寬公營房屋用地的發展限制，以及檢討私人遊樂場地契約政策，令佔用大幅土地的設施，能用得其所。
In the light that the waiting time of general applicants for PRH allocation was way longer than the target of the HA of providing the first offer of PRH units at around three years on average and that the progress of PRH production was not satisfactory members made various suggestions to the Administration to increase housing supply including identifying more spade ready sites for HA to provide public housing expediting the development process of non - spade ready sites converting the agricultural land currently owned by private developers into residential use through public - private collaboration relaxing in an appropriate scale the development restrictions and conducting a review of the policy on private recreational leases PRLs so that facilities on large pieces of land leased under PRLs were used for meaningful purposes
委員關注到，房委會把綠置居恆常化，或會令公屋供應減少，因此促請政府當局優先供應公屋，然後才提供其他房屋單位以滿足市民的置業訴求；而預留作公屋發展項目的土地，不應作為提供綠置居單位之用。
Members expressed concern that the HAs move of regularizing Green Form Subsidised Home Ownership Scheme GSH would reduce the PRH supply and thus urged the Administration to accord priority to the PRH supply over the provision of other housing units for meeting home ownership aspirations . They considered that the land earmarked for PRH developments should not be used for providing GSH
鑒於現時居屋單位售價高昂，委員要求房委會全面檢討資助出售房屋單位的售價，並認為有關售價應與市場價格脫鈎，改以建築成本及市民的承擔能力為基本考慮因素。
Given the current high prices of Home Ownership Scheme HOS flats members request the HA to comprehensively review the selling prices of subsidized sale housing which they considered should be delinked from market prices as well as set on the basic considerations of construction costs and the ability of the public to afford
委員普遍認為，在推展公屋發展項目而需收回土地清拆寮屋時，應先妥善安置受影響的居民，並作出賠償。
Members were generally of the view that in conducting squatter clearances to resume land for PRH developments the Government should rehouse and compensate the affected occupants of squatter structures in the first place
事務委員會曾就元朗橫洲第一期公營房屋發展有關的工務工程項目，與發展事務委員會舉行聯席會議，商討安置和賠償安排，並聽取受清拆影響居民的意見。
The Panel had held joint meetings with the Panel on Development to discuss the rehousing and compensation arrangements regarding the public housing development Phase 1 at Wang Chau Yuen Long and to receive views of those affected by the clearance operations
主席，最後，我感謝事務委員會各委員及秘書處職員在過去1年的支持和努力。
Lastly President I would like to express my gratitude to members of the Panel and Secretariat staff for their support and efforts made in the past year

President in my capacity as Chairman of the Panel on Constitutional Affairs the Panel I report to the Council the main areas of deliberation of the Panel during the current legislative session
政府在去年年底發表有關"選舉安排檢討"的諮詢文件，並且諮詢事務委員會的意見。
The Government issued a consultation paper on review of electoral arrangements at the end of last year and consulted the Panel for its views
然而，當局建議不對選舉調查規管作任何改動，以及維持立法會和區議會選舉的投票時間，部分委員對此表示失望。
Some members however were disappointed by the authorities proposals that the existing regulation on exit polls would remain unchanged and that the present polling hours of Legislative Council and District Council elections should be maintained
政府當局承諾會研究與投票時間相關的多項議題，再建議未來路向。
The Administration promised to propose the way forward after conducting studies on the various issues related to polling hours
事務委員會曾討論有關2018年立法會補選的實務安排，委員就投票站的安排，以及處理個人資料及保安指引等事宜進行了詳細討論，亦向政府當局提出了多項的建議。
The Panel had discussed the practical arrangements for the 2018 Legislative Council By - election . Members discussed in detail the arrangements at polling stations and matters concerning the internal physical and technical security guidelines governing the handling of personal data . Moreover they also made various recommendations to the Administration
政府當局就《國歌條例草案》的建議內容概要諮詢事務委員會，事務委員會舉行了兩次特別會議，聽取公眾意見。
The Panel was consulted on an outline of the proposed content of the National Anthem Bill the Bill . It held two special meetings to receive public views on the subject
委員向政府表達市民擔心可能會誤墮法網的憂慮，政府表示會在草擬《條例草案》的過程中，詳細考慮各方提出的關注。
Members relayed to the Government the public concern as many people were worried that they might breach the law unintentionally . The Government said that in drafting the Bill it would thoroughly consider the concerns raised by various parties
政府解釋，當局的立法原則是確保《國歌法》的立法原意和目的得以透過本地立法落實，同時兼顧香港的法律制度及情況。
The Government explained that the legislative principle was to ensure that the legislative intent and objectives of the National Anthem Law would be implemented through the local legislation whilst taking into account the legal system and the circumstances of Hong Kong
政府當局為落實歧視條例檢討報告中8項需要優先處理的建議擬訂立法建議，並徵詢事務委員會的意見。
The Government consulted the Panel on the legislative proposals which sought to implement eight recommendations of priority set out in the report on the Discrimination Law Review DLR for its views
委員普遍支持有關的立法建議，並通過兩項議案，促請政府在《性別歧視條例》中亦加入針對餵哺母乳的騷擾、中傷及冒犯行為，將該等行為列為違法；以及盡快制訂推行歧視條例檢討中與《種族歧視條例》有關的需要優先處理的各項建議。
Members generally supported the legislative proposals where two motions were passed by the Panel one was to urge the Government to also cover the acts of harassment vilification and offensive behaviour towards breastfeeding in the Sex Discrimination Ordinance and to classify such acts as unlawful; and the other was to urge the Government to expeditiously implement the various prioritized recommendations under the DLR with respect to the Race Discrimination Ordinance
事務委員會曾就特區政府根據不同的國際人權公約提交的4份報告及大綱，聽取公眾意見。
The Panel received public views on four reports and outlines on different international human rights treaties submitted by the HKSAR Government
此外，事務委員會亦聽取了平等機會委員會主席及個人資料私隱專員簡報最新工作情況，以及政府在檔案管理及推廣《基本法》方面的工作匯報。
Besides the Panel received briefings respectively by the Equal Opportunities Commission Chairperson and the Privacy Commissioner for Personal Data on an update of their work . The Panel was also briefed on the work of the Government in managing government records and promoting the Basic Law
主席，我謹動議通過議程附錄1所印載的決議。
President I move that the resolution as printed on Appendix 1 of the Agenda be passed
這項決議旨在把《致命意外條例》第43條訂明的親屬喪亡之痛損害賠償法定款額增至22萬元。
The purpose of this resolution is to increase the statutory sum of damages for bereavement under section 43 of the Fatal Accidents Ordinance Cap . 22 to 220,000
《條例》在1986年制定，容許為死者受養人的利益，就某人導致死者死亡的錯誤作為、疏忽或過失，向該人提出索償的訴訟。
The Ordinance was enacted in 1986 . It allows an action for damages to be brought against a person for the benefit of dependants of the deceased in respect of that persons wrongful act neglect or default which has caused the death of the deceased
根據《條例》提出的訴訟，可申索包括第43條所訂明的親屬喪亡之痛賠償款額。
An action under the Ordinance may include a claim for damages for bereavement in the sum as prescribed in section 43
《條例》自制定以來，親屬喪亡之痛賠償款額曾在1991年及1997年調整，現時，款額訂為15萬元。
Since the enactment of the Ordinance the bereavement sum was adjusted in 1991 and 1997 . The current sum is set at 150,000
政府曾在2000年檢討款額，在考慮1997年至2000年期間，消費物價指數下跌及其他因素後，認為當時並沒有理據調高款額，並把檢討結果告知立法會司法及法律事務委員會。
In 2000 the Government conducted a review of the bereavement sum and reached the view that there was no basis for increasing the sum at that stage considering inter alia the drop in the consumer price index between 1997 and 2000 . The Legislative Council Panel on Administration of Justice and Legal Services was informed of the result of the review
累積通脹率整體下降的趨勢曾一度維持，而參照每年3月的甲類消費物價指數，該指數在2010年3月才回復到1997年的水平。
The overall downward trend in the cumulative inflation rate had continued and by making reference to the indices in March of each year the Consumer Price Index A CPIA returned to the 1997 level only by March 2010
2014年年中，政府開始檢討親屬喪亡之痛賠償款額，參考按甲類消費物價指數計算的累積通脹，建議把款額增加至19萬元。
In mid - 2014 the Government commenced a review of the bereavement sum and having made reference to the cumulative inflation as measured by the CPIA proposed to increase the sum to 190,000
香港律師會和香港大律師公會回應諮詢時提出反建議，指擬議增幅不僅應考慮通脹，亦應考慮"本港不斷轉變的社會和經濟狀況"。
In response to that consultation The Law Society of Hong Kong and the Hong Kong Bar Association counter - proposed that the proposed increase should take into account not only inflation but also changing social and economic conditions of Hong Kong
其後，律政司就能否和如何客觀地量化"本港不斷轉變的社會和經濟狀況"，諮詢政府統計處及政府經濟顧問辦公室。
The Department of Justice DoJ then consulted the Census and Statistics Department and the Office of the Government Economist on whether and if so how the changing social and economic conditions of Hong Kong could be quantified objectively
得出的結論是，一個經濟體的"社會和經濟狀況"可涵蓋很多不同範疇，包括但不限於人口增長與結構、公共衞生、房屋、社會福利、罪案、社會穩定、經濟增長、業務表現、通脹、就業收入和入息。
It was concluded that the social and economic conditions of an economy could embrace many different aspects including but not limited to population growth and structure public health housing social welfare crime social stability economic growth business performance inflation employment earnings and income
因此，沒有單一指標可概括顯示不斷轉變的社會和經濟狀況。
Therefore there is no single indicator that can serve the purpose of manifesting the changing social and economic conditions in a nutshell
律政司同時也研究其他普通法司法管轄區所採用的方法。
The DoJ has also in parallel studied the methodology adopted in other common law jurisdictions
因此，政府認為，基於沒有客觀方法量化"本港不斷轉變的社會和經濟狀況"，在檢討親屬喪亡之痛賠償款額時，不宜把有關款額訂在高於通脹水平，以反映該等狀況。
In light of the above the Government takes the view that it is not appropriate to include an amount over and above inflation in the review of the bereavement sum to reflect the changing social and economic conditions of Hong Kong in the absence of an objective methodology to quantify the same
2018年5月，我們已就政府今天提出的議案，透過決議調高親屬喪亡之痛賠償款額至22萬元的建議，諮詢立法會司法及法律事務委員會。
In May 2018 the AJLS Panel was consulted in relation to the Governments proposal to move todays resolution to increase the bereavement sum to 220,000
決議亦獲得事務委員會委員、兩個法律專業團體和香港保險業聯會的支持。
Members of the AJLS Panel the two legal professional bodies and the Hong Kong Federation of Insurers supports the Governments proposal
根據《條例》第45條提出的擬議決議案小組委員會亦於2018年6月18日討論該決議，會上所有出席的委員均表示支持。
The Governments proposal was also discussed before the Subcommittee on Proposed Resolution under Section 45 of the Fatal Accidents Ordinance Cap . 22 at its meeting of 18 June 2018 during which all members present expressed support
至於在今天的決議中的22萬元款額，是按1997年3月至2018年3月期間的甲類消費物價指數，除了2017年3月至2018年3月期間外，以每兩年檢討一次親屬喪亡之痛賠償款額的計算，並把估算所得兩年一次的調整額，逐一調高至最接近的5,000元整數從而得出。
The figure of 220,000 in todays resolution is arrived at with the exception of the period from March 2017 to March 2018 by reviewing the bereavement sum every two years based on the CPIA from March 1997 to March 2018 and rounded up to the nearest 5,000 upon each notional biennial adjustment
決議如獲通過，會在刊憲當天起生效，而所增加的款額亦寬鬆地涵蓋了由1997年3月至2018年3月的累積通脹。
Upon passage the resolution would take effect from the date of its publication in the Gazette and the increase in the bereavement sum would be more than sufficient to cover the cumulative inflation from March 1997 to March 2018
對於即將和日後進行的親屬喪亡之痛賠償款額檢討而言，參考甲類消費物價指數，並根據通脹調整款額，是簡單和客觀的方法。
An adjustment based on inflation by making reference to the CPIA could provide a simple and objective methodology for the coming and future reviews of the bereavement sum
在這基礎上，政府今後可參考甲類消費物價指數，每兩年定期檢討一次，並在有需要時提出議案，決議調整親屬喪亡之痛賠償款額。
On this basis the Government will in future be able to conduct routine reviews every two years by making reference to the CPIA and move a resolution to adjust the bereavement sum if necessary
我謹此陳辭，懇請議員支持這項決議。
With the above remarks I urge Members to support the resolution
主席，我以教育事務委員會主席的身份，匯報事務委員會在2017-2018年度立法會會期的重點工作。
President in my capacity as Chairman of the Panel on Education the Panel I now report some major items of work of the Panel for the 2017 - 2018 session
事務委員會其中一項關注的議題是小學學生輔導服務。
One of the items of concern of the Panel was student guidance services in primary schools
委員支持政府當局一校一社工的建議，但憂慮學生輔導教師和輔導員會被社工取代。
Members were in support of the Administrations proposal on one social worker for each school but worried that Student Guidance Teachers SGT and student guidance personnel SGP would be replaced by social workers
委員促請當局採取"一校一社工加一輔導教師或輔導員"的模式。
Members called on the Administration to adopt a one social worker plus one SGTSGP service mode in each primary school
教育局承諾會檢視學生輔導及社工服務的合作模式，並與教育界一同探討各種可行方案。
The Education Bureau undertook that it would review the mode of collaboration between student guidance and social work services and explore with the education sector various feasible proposals
事務委員會另一項關注的議題是幼稚園界別的發展。
Another item of concern of the Panel was the development of kindergarten KG education sector
在新的幼稚園教育政策下，七成全日制或長全日制幼稚園的每月學費少於1,000元，相比去年只有5%有很大進步。
Under the new KG education policy 70 % of KGs offering whole - day WDlong WD LWD programmes collected school fees below 1,000 per month which was a great improvement as compared to merely 5 % in the previous school year
委員強烈要求當局，全數資助全日制和長全日制幼稚園，以及提供更多這些幼稚園學額。
Members strongly requested the Administration to provide full subsidies and more places to WD and LWD KGs
此外，經事務委員會多年的努力，當局承諾探討設立幼稚園教師薪級表的可行性，並預期大概會在3年內作出決定。
Besides under the efforts of the Panel over these years the Administration undertook to explore the feasibility of setting up a salary scale for KG teachers and it was expected that a decision would be made in about three years time
經事務委員會多番討論，今年小三全港性系統評估，採取"不記名、不記校、不收學校報告"的原則，抽樣進行，但學校可以安排全級應考，以取得學校報告，委員擔心會令操練延續。
After many rounds of discussion by the Panel Primary Three Territory - wide System Assessment P3 TSA this year would adopt a sampling approach observing the principle of no student names no school names and no collection of school reports . However schools who would like to obtain school - level reports could arrange for the participation of all of their P3 students and Members were worried that drilling practice would continue
委員促請當局讓學生自由選擇參與系統評估，並設立機制監察系統評估的推行情況，在發現操練時作出跟進。
Members urged the Administration to give students the choice in regard to their participation or otherwise in P3 TSA establish a mechanism to monitor the implementation of P3 TSA and take follow - up actions if drilling persists
委員普遍認為過量家課有礙學生身心發展，促請當局採取措施減輕學生功課壓力，包括安排課堂時間讓學生完成部分家課、推行"無家課日"等。事務委員會曾就在學校推行性教育和德育及公民教育提出意見。
Members were generally of the view that excessive homework would have negative effects on students physical and psychological development . They called upon the Administration to adopt measures in alleviating the homework pressure of students such as arranging some tutorial sessions within school time for students to complete part of their homework and implementing No Homework Day The Panel had voiced its opinions on the promotion of sex education as well as moral and civic education MCE in schools
委員促請當局加強德育及公民教育，培養學生建立正面價值觀，以及詳細檢討性教育的推行，定出未來路向。
Members urged the Administration to step up MCE to nurture positive values in students and to review the implementation of sex education and map out a way forward
在大學方面，委員支持設立宿舍發展基金，加快興建學生宿舍，讓所有大學生能體驗宿舍生活。
In regard to universities members were in support of setting up a Hostel Development Fund speeding up hotel developments so that all university students could experience hostel life
事務委員會亦非常重視有特殊教育需要學生的學習支援。
The Panel was also very concerned about the learning support for students with special educational needs
特殊學校宿位不足，學生往往要長途跋涉上學。
Due to insufficient boarding places in specials schools students would have to commute a long way to school
主席，我樂見和感謝不同的議員對決議案所表達的支持。
President I am happy to see and also grateful for the support expressed by Members for the resolution
對於議員提出的看法，我會扼要但不逐點回應。
Instead of replying to Members views point by point I will give a brief response
我在首次發言時也提到，諮詢司法及法律事務委員會是重要的，亦是審慎和嚴謹的做法，而由政府提出決議案的決定是正確的，亦獲得司法及法律事務委員會和擬議決議案小組委員會的支持。
I have mentioned in my first speech that as a prudent and stringent approach it is important to consult the Panel on Administration of Justice and Legal Services AJLS . It is also a correct decision for the Government to take up the role of the mover of the resolution which has drawn support from both the AJLS Panel and the subcommittee on the proposed resolution
再者，增加的幅度亦能夠客觀地量化，而且是寬鬆的。
The rate of increase can also be quantified objectively and is lenient
正如我在較早前的發言中提到，今次的決議案目的是參考甲類消費物價指數，將《致命意外條例》第43條訂明的親屬喪亡之痛賠償款額增至22萬港元。
As I have said in my earlier speech the purpose of this resolution is to increase the sum of damages for bereavement under section 43 of the Fatal Accidents Ordinance Cap
政府今後亦會參考甲類消費物價指數，每兩年定期檢討一次，並在有需要時提出議案，調整該賠償的款額。
22 to 220,000 according to the Consumer Price Index A CPIA . In the future the Government will also conduct routine reviews every two years by making reference to CPIA and move a motion to adjust the bereavement sum if necessary
至於通脹以外的考慮，律政司歡迎及樂意考慮稍後香港律師會或其他持份者將會提出的意見。
In respect of other factors other than inflation DoJ welcomes and is happy to consider any views to be submitted by The Law Society of Hong Kong and other stakeholders
同時，希望大家明白，在致命意外索償時，申索人在親屬喪亡之痛的損害外，亦包括其他賠償的項目，例如殯殮費、受養損失及累積財富的損失。
Meanwhile I wish Members can understand that in addition to bereavement damages dependants may claim compensation for pecuniary loss including funeral expenses loss of dependency and loss of accumulation of wealth under an action arising from fatal accidents
至於議員提出的其他關注，大部分則超出本議案的範圍。
Other concerns raised by Members are mostly outside the scope of this resolution
代理主席，這項《2018年人體器官移植條例草案》很簡單，主要是應醫療專業人員和病人組織的要求，針對配對捐贈安排及匯集捐贈安排作出明文規定，從而確保現時透過這兩項安排，為兩名互不認識人士進行的器官移植不會跌入法律陷阱，被視為受"引誘"而進行的行為。
Deputy President the Human Organ Transplant Amendment Bill 2018 the Bill is very simple it seeks to expressly provide for paired donation arrangement and pooled donation arrangement in response to requests of health care professionals and patient groups so as to ensure organ transplants between two living non - related persons to avoid the legal pitfall of an offer of inducement
