至於其他隧道的收費，運輸署已展開"擠塞徵費"研究，全面檢討並重新制訂政府收費隧道及青沙管制區，包括西區海底隧道和大欖隧道的收費水平。
As for the tolls of other tunnels TD has commenced the study on Congestion Charging to comprehensively review and reset the toll levels of the government tolled tunnels and TSCA including the Western Harbour Crossing and Tai Lam Tunnel
"擠塞徵費"是按交通管理的需要，適度增減車輛收費以調節交通流量，紓緩交通擠塞，便利市民出行。
Congestion Charging means to increase or reduce vehicle tolls to regulate traffic flow according to the needs of traffic management so as to alleviate traffic congestion and facilitate the commute of the public
我們會適時就研究的建議諮詢有關持份者，包括立法會交通事務委員會。
We will consult relevant stakeholders including the Panel on Transport of the Legislative Council about the recommendations of the study in due course
代理主席，我懇請議員支持《條例草案》和稍後提出的修正案，使政府可以盡早推行不停車繳費系統，讓駕駛者和出行市民都可享受應用創新科技所帶來的便利，實踐"智慧出行"。
Deputy President I implore Members to support the Bill and the amendments which will be proposed later so that the Government can implement FFTS as soon as possible thereby enabling motorists and the commuting public to enjoy the convenience brought by the application of innovative technology and to realize Smart Mobility
我亦希望以幾個字回應一些議員朋友的評論：我們會全面、有序、快速推行。
Moreover I wish to say a few words in response to the comments made by some Members We will implement the system in a comprehensive orderly and expeditious manner
我現在向各位提出的待決議題是：《2021年不停車繳費條例草案》，予以二讀。
I now put the question to you and that is That the Free - Flow Tolling Bill 2021 be read the Second time
《2021年不停車繳費條例草案》。
Free - Flow Tolling Bill 2021
主席，感謝李慧琼議員提出今天這項議題，我支持她的議案，亦贊成麥美娟議員的修正案。
President I thank Ms Starry LEE for moving this motion today . I support her motion and also Ms Alice MAKs amendment
其實，將運輸及房屋局分拆，已經是立法會的共識。
In fact splitting the policy portfolios of the Transport and Housing Bureau is already the consensus of the Legislative Council
作為過來人，我是第一批問責官員，我很明白第一任行政長官董建華先生當時為何要引進這個制度。
I myself have had this experience as I was in the first batch of principal officials and I understand very well why Mr TUNG Chee - hwa the first Chief Executive had to introduce this system
其實，董先生引進的，就是效法美國總統制中的政治任命制。
In fact what Mr TUNG had introduced was based on the political appointees system under the presidential system of the United States
我亦明白董先生為何要引進這個任命制度，因為他擔任了近5年行政長官後，發覺真正屬於他的班子甚少。
I also understand why Mr TUNG had to introduce this political appointees system . It was because after being the Chief Executive for nearly five years he found that there were only a handful of trusted persons in his governing team
他加入特區政府時，身邊只有路祥安，"國師"葉國華，還有一位女秘書，在政府這個大組織內，他缺乏親信。
When he joined the SAR Government he only had Mr Andrew LO Mr Paul YIP who was regarded as his top advisor and a female secretary with him . In this mega organization of the Government he was in lack of trusted aides
我亦知道他想引入一些專才。
I also know that he wanted to recruit some talents and he nailed it in the first term of the accountability system
在第一屆問責制，他是做到的，例如負責醫務衞生方面，他找來楊永強醫生，他是一名資深的醫生，醫學知識當然較前任政務官為多當年應該是由霍羅兆貞女士出任衞生福利局局長當然，由醫生擔任較由政務官擔任好。
For instance he recruited Dr YEOH Eng - kiong to be in charge of the medical and health portfolio . Dr YEOH was a veteran doctor and his medical knowledge was surely better than his predecessor who was an Administrative Officer―I recall that back then Mrs Katherine FOK was the Secretary for Health and Welfare―of course this position is better taken up by a doctor than an Administrative Officer
在金融方面，他委任梁錦松擔任財政司司長，這也是正確的，因為政府很多屆財政司都不是真的修讀過經濟或有市場經驗的人。
In the financial portfolio he appointed Mr Antony LEUNG to be the Financial Secretary and this was also right because many Financial Secretaries of the previous terms did not really study economics or have market experience
我現在向各位提出的待議議題是：麥美娟議員動議的修正案，予以通過。
I now propose the question to you and that is That the amendment moved by Ms Alice MAK be passed
我現在向各位提出的待決議題是：《汞管制條例草案》，予以二讀。
I now put the question to you and that is That the Mercury Control Bill be read the Second time
我現在向各位提出的待議議題是：環境局局長動議的議案，予以通過。
I now propose the question to you and that is That the motion moved by the Secretary for the Environment be passed
主席，我首先感謝李慧琼議員提出的議案辯論，以及麥美娟議員提出的修正案。
President first I wish to thank Ms Starry LEE for proposing the motion debate and Ms Alice MAK for proposing the amendment
今次有關"改革主要官員問責制"的意見，帶出了議員對特區政府現行政治委任制度的關注，以及對提高管治效能，更好推動香港整體發展的期望。
The views concerning Reforming the accountability system for principal officials this time around have brought out Members concerns about the SAR Governments existing political appointment system as well as their expectations of enhancing the effectiveness of the governance and better promoting the overall development of Hong Kong
我的開場發言會重點講述政治委任制度的發展和現況，以及在通過《香港國安法》及完善香港特區選舉制度後為我們帶來由亂及治的新契機，可以更好地發揮政治委任制度的優勢，有利香港重回正軌，重新出發。
In my opening remarks I will highlight the development and current status of our political appointment system as well as the new opportunity to move from chaos to stability after the passage of the National Security Law and the improvement to HKSARs electoral system so as to bring the advantage of the political appointment system into fuller play which is conducive to putting Hong Kong back on the right track and start afresh
我會在總結發言部分綜合回應議員提出有關政治委任制度及其他方面的建議。
In my closing remarks I will provide a consolidated response to Members views on the political appointment system and their recommendations
政治委任制度是特區政府管治團隊的重要組成部分。
The political appointment system is an integral part of the SARs governing team
特區政府在2002年引入第一批政治委任的司、局長，組成最高層的政治領導層級；2008年政治委任制度進一步發展，增設兩層政治委任官員，即副局長和政治助理，形成目前的3層級的政治委任制度。
The SAR Government introduced the first batch of politically appointed secretaries of departments and bureaux in 2002 thereby forming the highest echelon of political leadership . In 2008 the political appointment system was further developed by the addition of two echelons of politically appointed officials namely Under Secretaries and Political Assistants thereby ultimately forming the current 3 - echelon political appointment system
在這制度下，政治委任的主要官員須就各自政策範疇內的事宜承擔政治責任，向行政長官負責，並統領有關政策範疇內的執行部門。
Under this system politically appointed principal officials are required to take the political responsibility for matters within their own purviews; they are accountable to the Chief Executive and to lead the executive departments in charge of the relevant policy areas
副局長主要負責協助局長處理各方面的政治工作，尤其是處理與立法會相關的事務，協助政府解釋政策，並爭取議員支持政府提出的方案。
Under Secretaries mainly assist secretaries of bureaux in the handling of all sorts of political tasks especially affairs in relation to the Legislative Council; assist the Government in explaining Government policies and to secure Members support for the Governments proposal
政治助理負責協助司長、局長和副局長進行政治聯繫和遊說工作，亦負責提供政治分析和意見。
Political Assistants are responsible for helping Secretaries of Departments Directors of Bureaux and Under Secretaries to conduct political liaison and lobbying work and providing political analysis and advice
香港是一個多元、開放的社會，社會對政府施政的要求越發提高，意見越趨多元，不同持份者對政府施政往往有不同的立場和訴求。
As Hong Kong is a pluralistic and open society thus there are increasing demands in community on the Governments governance whereas opinions have become more diversified . Different stakeholders with different stances will often have different demands on the Governments governance
政治委任制度的設立，正正是因應社會的變化，讓特區政府的管治更靈活和互動，確保施政能迅速有效回應社會訴求，更緊貼民情，滿足社會需要。
The purpose of implementing the political appointment system is to respond to the changes in society so as to allow the SAR Government to have more flexibility to interact with society in its governance and ensure Government policies to promptly and effectively respond to demands in community to be more responsive to public sentiments and to meet the needs of community
政治委任制度有助特區政府靈活吸納政府體制內、外最適合的人才出任政治委任職位，將社會不同界別、不同背景、不同年紀的人才引進政府，在一支專業常任的公務員隊伍配合下，令特區 政府決策考慮更全面，施政更有效，亦可為特區培育政治人才。
The political appointment system is conducive to the recruitment of the most suitable talents from within and outside the government system to take up politically appointed posts and the introduction of talents who have different backgrounds and at different ages from different sectors of the community into the Government . With the cooperation of a professional and permanent civil service team the SAR may have a more comprehensive policy consideration to facilitate the governance in a more effective way . Besides it may also help the Government to nurture political talents
事實上，現屆政府的問責團隊正是來自社會不同界別的人士，有不同的專業背景，當中包括公共行政、政黨、商界、專業人士、學術界、傳媒、智庫等，達致了政治委任制度廣納人才的目的。
As a matter of fact since the accountability team of the current - term Government comprises people from different strata in society who have different professional backgrounds in public administration political parties business sector academic circle media think - tanks and so on thus the political appointment system has achieved the objective of recruiting talents
過去兩年，本港接連受社會事件及疫情衝擊，但現屆政府的問責團隊仍然努力不懈，迎難而上，致力解決社會、民生、經濟等問題。
Over the past two years Hong Kong has been impacted by social events and the epidemic but the accountability team of the current - term Government is still working hard and rising to the challenges ahead endeavouring to resolve social livelihood economic and other issues
行政長官重視官員問責精神，近年的施政報告除了提出新的政策措施外，亦通過施政報告附篇詳細交代各政策範疇取得的成效。
The Chief Executive attaches great importance to the spirit of accountability of officials . In recent years besides bringing up new policy initiatives in the policy address details of the achievements in various policy areas are also explained in the supplement of the policy address
我不打算在此重複這些文件的內容，但只會重點以抗疫和貫徹落實"一國兩制"來說明特區在問責制下的管治表現。
I am not going to repeat the content of these papers I will only brief Members on the salient points of the performance of governance of the SAR Government in relation to the anti - epidemic efforts and the implementation and execution of one country two systems
在抗疫工作方面，自2019冠狀病毒病疫情在去年年初爆發以來，特區政府一直以維護香港市民健康為最優先考慮的負責任態度嚴陣以待，並採取各項措施遏制疫情。
With regards to anti - epidemic efforts since the outbreak of the Coronavirus disease 2019 COVID - 19 epidemic in early last year the SAR Government has been on the highest alert and according the highest priority to efforts in protecting Hong Kong peoples health in a responsible way by adopting all possible measures to curb the outbreak
自接獲國家衞健委通報後，特區政府迅速地於去年1月初將2019冠狀病毒病納入《預防及控制疾病條例》訂明的表列疾病；並在第一宗感染個案確診後，在去年1月25日將2019冠狀病毒病應變級別提升至最高的"緊急"級別，由行政長官領導跨部門督導委員會暨指揮中心，因應疫情發展制訂相關策略和措施。
After receiving the notification from the National Health Commission the SAR Government swiftly included COVID - 19 as Scheduled Infectious Diseases in the Schedule under the Prevention and Control of Disease Ordinance Cap . 599 in early January last year raised the response level of COVID - 19 to Emergency soon after the confirmation of the first case of infection on 25 January last year and established the inter - departmental Steering Committee cum Command Centre led by the Chief Executive to formulate the relevant policies according to the development of the epidemic
香港過去一年多以來的抗疫經驗，在特區政府領導班子的領導下，各政策局/部門之間良好有效協作，帶領着香港社會成功戰勝一波又一波的疫情。
As Hong Kong has gained experience in fighting the epidemic under the leadership of the SAR Government over the past year or so good and effective collaborations have been achieved among all Policy Bureaux and departments and Hong Kong has overcome wave after wave of epidemic outbreaks
例如去年9月1日至14日，食物及衞生局與公務員事務局聯同其他來自不同部門的現職及退休公務員和輔助隊伍成員，眾志成城，為市民提供免費的病毒檢測服務。
For example during 1 to 14 September last year free virus testing service was provided for the public with the help and synchronized endeavours made by the Food and Health Bureau the Civil Service Bureau other serving and retired civil servants from different departments and supporting staff with the spirit of working as one
在普及社區檢測計劃下，合共為約178萬個樣本進行2019冠狀病毒病核酸檢測。
Under the Universal Community Testing Programme a total of about 1.78 million COVID - 19 nucleic acid samples were tested
此外，為了提升追蹤接觸者的工作，食物及衞生局早前已與創新及科技局開發專為追蹤接觸者而設的內部資訊網站，以連接各有關部門、機構及現有資訊系統，通過中央電子方式收集追蹤接觸者所需的資料，大大提升了追蹤接觸者工作的效率。
Moreover in order to enhance contact tracing the Food and Health Bureau and the Innovation and Technology Bureau have jointly developed an internal information website for contact tracing which links up all relevant departments institutions and existing information systems with a view to collecting the information needed to trace contacts through a centralized electronic means which has significantly improved the efficiency of contact tracing
自第四波疫情爆發後，政府又積極加強各項外防輸入，內防擴散的措施，在行政長官親自指揮及各司局相互配合下，現時第四波疫情已成功受控，本港亦已連續16日沒有本地確診個案，而行政長官日前更宣布進一步放寬部分社交距離措施，使市民可以進一步恢復正常生活。
Since the outbreak of the fourth - wave epidemic the Government has actively strengthened the defence of the importation and internal spreading of the epidemic . Under the leadership of the Chief Executive and the cooperation of departments and bureaux the fourth wave of epidemic has been contained successfully . Since there has also been no report of confirmed case in Hong Kong for 16 consecutive days the Chief Executive has recently announced a further relaxation of certain social distance measures in order to enable the public to return to normal life
主席，本屆政府的施政成果得來不易。
President the results of governance of the Government of the current term are not easy to come by
必須留意的是，過去數年的議會泛政治化，令行政和立法機關之間相互配合困難重重，不但難以凝聚共識，甚至令特區政府施政舉步艱難，更重要的是令香港白白錯失了不少寶貴的發展機遇。
One should note that the pan - politicization of the legislature in the past few years had made it more difficult for the executive and legislature to work together . Not only is it difficult to build consensus it is even more difficult for the SAR Government to implement its policies . And the most important thing is that it has cost Hong Kong many invaluable development opportunities
但隨着《香港國安法》和完善香港特區選舉制度以至"愛國者治港"原則的落實，香港正踏入由亂及治的重大轉折。
But following the implementation of the National Security Law improvement of HKSARs electoral system as well as manifesting the principle of patriots administering Hong Kong Hong Kong is taking a major turn from chaos to governance
《香港國安法》實施後的效果立竿見影，扭轉了特區多年來的亂局和亂象，市民回復正常生活，"一國兩制"亦得以繼續前行，行穩致遠。
The implementation of the National Security Law has achieved immediate results by turning around years of chaos and confusion in the SAR and allowing the public to return to normal life
與此同時，《香港國安法》更令特區政府可以重新聚焦，將資源從應對"黑暴"事件調撥到解決社會深層次問題上，為香港保持長期繁榮穩定，促進經濟發展提供堅實的基礎。
The steadfast successful and continual implementation of one country two systems was also ensured . At the same time the National Security Law allows the SAR Government to refocus its resources from dealing with the riots to resolving deep - seated problems in society thus it has provided a solid foundation for the long - term prosperity and stability of Hong Kong and the promotion of Hong Kongs economic development
完善特區選舉制度，目的是為全面準確貫徹"一國兩制"方針、"愛國者治港"，確保香港長治久安和長期繁榮穩定提供堅實的制度保障。
The objective of improving the SARs electoral system is to fully and accurately implement the one country two systems principle implementing the code of patriots administering Hong Kong and ensuring the provision of a solid institutional safeguard for the long - term stability prosperity and stability of Hong Kong
《2021年完善選舉制度條例草案》於本年5月27日順利三讀通過，並在5月31日刊憲生效。
The Third Reading of the Improving Electoral System Bill 2021 was successfully passed on 27 May this year which has come into effect after its gazettal on 31 May
在經完善的選舉制度下，我們相信議會必定能夠回復為行政機關和立法機關理性互動的平台，切實履行和貫徹《基本法》賦予立法機關的憲制職能，有助提升特區政府的治理效能，共同維護國家主權、安全和發展利益。
With the improved electoral system we believe the legislature will restore its role as a platform for rational interaction between the executive and the legislature thus it will effectively discharge and implement the constitutional functions of the legislature empowered by the Basic Law . It is also conducive to the enhancement of the SAR Governments effective governance the joint defences of the sovereignty of China and the interests of its national security and development
政府將致力達致良政善治，與社會各界一同集中精力發展經濟、改善民生，確保香港長期繁榮穩定、長治久安。
The Government will endeavour to achieve good governance and benevolent policies by working in partnership with all sectors in community and concentrating in the development of the economy enhancement of the peoples livelihood with a view to ensuring the long - term prosperity stability and peace of Hong Kong
在實施《香港國安法》和完善選舉制度後，特區政府在行政長官帶領並各主要官員的共同努力下，施政效能已明顯提高。
After the implementation of the National Security Law and the improvement of the electoral system there is apparent enhancement in the effectiveness of governance of the SAR Government under the helm of the Chief Executive and with the joint efforts made by principal officials
例如，直至本年6月18日，立法會在本立法年度合共通過了23項政府法案，並正在審議7項政府提交的條例草案。
For example up to 18 June this year a total of 23 government bills were passed by the Legislative Council in the current legislative session and the Legislative Council is scrutinizing 7 bills introduced by the Government
這些都是關係到社會、民生、經濟的重要法案，亦是立法會和社會各界都渴望能作出的重要政策改變，能及時推出，必定能夠有助香港撥亂反正，與時並進，促進發展。
These are important bills that have a bearing on society peoples livelihood and the economy . It is also a timely and important policy change that the Legislative Council and the community are eager to see as it will certainly help Hong Kong to put things right to keep abreast of the times and to promote development
另外，政府在今個立法年度截至6月11日，已獲立法會財務委員會批出60項工務工程計劃及基本工程儲備基金整體撥款，撥款額高達約1,332億元。
Moreover as at 11 June the Legislative Council has approved 60 items of public works programmes and capital works reserve fund block allocations amounting to as much as 133.2 billion
這些及時撥款亦有助促進本港民生經濟發展。
Such timely funding approvals will also help to boost Hong Kongs economic development relating to the peoples livelihood
主席，總括而言，經過多年的實踐，我們認為目前的政治委任制度切合特區的管治需要。
President in summary after years of practice we consider the current political appointment system can meet the needs of governance in HKSAR
接下來我會細心聆聽各位議員的發言，然後我會再作總結回應。
I will continue to listen carefully to speeches to be delivered by Members before I make my concluding remarks
主席，我感謝剛才各位議員踴躍發言，並提出很多寶貴意見和建議，我現在就各位議員的發言作扼要的整體回應。
President I thank Members for giving speeches eagerly and for providing lots of valuable opinions and suggestions just now . I will give an overall reply to their speeches in brief
剛才有不少議員提及政治委任官員和公務員關係的問題。
A number of Members mentioned just now the relationship between officials under the political appointment system and the civil service
我想在此指出，在現時政治委任制度下，政治委任官員與公務員團隊一直通力合作。
I would like to point out here that politically appointed officials and the civil service have been working closely together under the current political appointment system
按政治委任制度的精神和分工，政治委任官員必須緊貼社會脈搏、與社會互動，透過雙向溝通，一方面掌握民情民意，了解市民所需，從而考慮制訂相應措施和政策，另一方面讓社會大眾多了解和支持政府的政策，同時廣納社會大眾的意見，令政策更緊貼民情，切合社會的發展和需要；而公務員同事的職責是協助政治委任官員制訂相關政策及落實有關措施。
According to the essence of the political appointment system and the division of duties and responsibilities politically appointed officials must keep their fingers on the pulse of society and interact with the community . Through two - way communication they should on the one hand grasp the sentiment and opinions of the public understand public needs and thereby considering the formulation of corresponding measures and policies and on the other hand enable the public to better understand and support government policies while gauging a wide spectrum of public views so as to keep government policies close to the community and meet the development and needs of society; whereas the civil service is responsible for assisting politically appointed officials in formulating relevant policies and implementing relevant measures
而《政治委任制度官員守則》亦已清晰訂明政治委任官員與公務員的工作關係，以及彼此的權責分工等關係。
The Code for Officials under the Political Appointment System has set out clearly the working relationship between politically appointed officials and the civil service as well as their obligations and the division of duties and responsibilities between the two
在此，我想跟大家分享一個工作經驗，最近在完善選舉制度立法的過程中，大家也知道有關任務相當繁重，工作量亦很多，時間也十分短促。
I want to share my work experience with you here . During the legislative process for improving the electoral system you all know it was a task with heavy workload and a tight schedule
在短短幾個月的時間，由策劃、草擬法例、提交立法會審議、作出修訂、再審議，最後修訂了8項主體法例和24項附屬法例。
In a few months time starting from the planning and drafting of the Bill then the introduction to Legislative Council for scrutiny followed by amendments for further scrutiny we managed to amend 8 pieces of primary legislation and 24 pieces of subsidiary legislation at last
在這個幾乎不可能完成的任務上，我和我的公務員團隊同事合作無間，能夠在這段時間完成工作，我可以形容大家是目標一致、分工明確、合作無間、無分你我。
In this almost impossible mission my civil servant colleagues and I managed to complete the task on time by working closely together . I can say we have a common goal clear division of duties and responsibilities and good teamwork by coming all together as one
在這樣的情況之下，我作為現任的問責局長，亦是前公務員同事，我相信我有資格向大家說明，香港的公務員同事是非常優秀、廉潔、高效的，目前與各政策局的合作是相當好的。
As the incumbent politically accountable official and an ex - civil servant I believe that I am in a position to say that civil servants in Hong Kong are marvellous honest and highly efficient and cooperate very well with various bureaux
另外，有個別議員認為現時的問責官員團隊來自不同類型、界別，可以說是五湖四海，與政黨成員有共同政治理念不同，恕我在此說我不敢苟同。
Some Members think that current politically accountable officials are of different types and come from different sectors and all over Hong Kong contrary to members of political parties who share the same political ideologies . I must say I do not agree
雖然問責官員來自不同階層和界別，有着不同的專業背景及經驗，但大家都有共同理念，就是要支持行政長官的施政理念，以及為國家、為香港、為市民謀幸福，這就是我們的共同理念。
Although politically accountable officials come from different strata and sectors and have different professional backgrounds and experience we share the same ideology which is to support the policy vision of the Chief Executive and strive for the well - being of our country Hong Kong and the public . This is the ideology we all share
我過去接任或擔任局長的工作，其實也是本着此理念去做的。
In fact I have been following this ideology since I took up the post of Secretary
另外，有議員提出在完善選舉制度，落實"愛國者治港"的重要原則下，需要吸納更多有能之士，成為特區政府的管治人才。
Moreover Members suggested that upon the improvement of the electoral system and the implementation of the important principle of patriots administering Hong Kong we should recruit more able people to become talents in governance in the SAR Government
我們認同提升治理效能的其中一個重要關鍵是吸納人才。
I agree that one of the key factors to enhance the efficiency of policy implementation is to recruit talents
要施政暢順，做到以人為本，必須有大量有能力的愛國治港人才。
A large number of patriotic talents in governance are needed for smooth and people - oriented implementation of policies
本屆政府致力為青年提供更多議政、論政的機會。
The current - term Government strives to provide more opportunities for young people to comment on and discuss politics
現屆政府推出的青年委員自薦計劃已常規化，並已擴展至更多委員會。
We have regularized the Member Self - recommendation Scheme for Youth MSSY launched by the current - term Government and expanded it to cover more boards and committees
除了在自薦計劃下公開招募的名額外，政府亦邀請出席面試的申請人授權民政事務局把他們的資料存入中央資料庫，讓政府的政策局和部門在考慮轄下諮詢及法定組織的成員人選時作參考之用。
Apart from the open recruitment quota under MSSY the Government also invites applicants who have attended the recruitment interview to authorize the Home Affairs Department to save their information in the central database . The database serves as a reference for relevant bureauxdepartments to consider the appointment to their own advisory and statutory bodies
自自薦計劃推出以來，透過該計劃直接或間接獲委任至諮詢及法定組織擔任不同職位的青年人，已經超過400人；而政府的人才庫內的青年人數目已由2017年時約1,000人大幅增加至現時逾3,000人。
Since the launch of MSSY the number of young people who have been appointed to take up different roles in relevant advisory and statutory bodies through the scheme directly or indirectly has reached over 400 while the number of young people in the Governments talent pool has increased substantially from around 1 000 in 2017 to over 3 000 at present
這些公職亦可作為政治人才培訓的搖籃，培養青年從獨立客觀角度看待社會問題。
Public service can serve as a cradle for training political talents by nurturing them to look at social problems from an independent and objective perspective
政府會繼續營造有利環境，提供更多機會以吸納更多具潛質的人才。
The Government will continue to create a favourable environment and offer more opportunities to recruit more talents with potentials
