雖然政府已就新界北發展向財務委員會申請撥款，以進行詳細規劃及工程研究，但這個看似新穎的新界北規劃，其實最早可追溯至回歸前的《全港發展策略檢討》所建議的坪輋/打鼓嶺新發展區。
Although the Government has already sought funding from the Finance Committee for the development of New Territories North to carry out a detailed planning and engineering study this seemingly novel development can actually be traced back to the development of the Ping CheTa Kwu Ling New Development Area NDA proposed before the return of sovereignty in the Territorial Development Strategy Review
然而，雖然該區先後在1998年及2008年獲納入發展計劃，但其發展後來卻被擱置，最終在2018年再次納入《香港2030+》。
The development of this NDA though included in the development plans in 1998 and 2008 was subsequently shelved and was eventually included in Hong Kong 2030 again only until 2018
當一河之隔的深圳不斷發展，香港這邊卻一直在研究、研究及再研究，簡直是蹉跎歲月。
When Shenzhen which is just a river away keeps developing Hong Kong keeps engaging in endless studies . What a waste of time
我今天的議案雖說是討論以口岸經濟帶動新界北部發展，但發展新界北部其實可帶動整個香港的經濟，而不是單單帶動新界，因為新界北部是未來香港的新核心、大灣區的核心。
My motion today is about driving the development of the northern New Territories with port economy . However this development can indeed drive the economic development of the entire Hong Kong rather than merely the New Territories . That is because the northern New Territories will become the new core region of Hong Kong and the Greater Bay Area GBA
我在議案中提出了許多具體建議，包括如何發展基建和貫通交通，例如以鐵路的北環綫駁通蓮塘及皇崗口岸，甚至每個管制站都應該有鐵路接駁，亦要求政府主動將其部門和機構遷進新界北。
I have put forward many concrete suggestions in my motion including infrastructure development and the building of transportation networks . For example I have proposed that the Northern Link which is a rail link should be extended to Liantang and Huanggang Port or even every single control point . I have also requested the Government to take the initiative to relocate its departments and organizations to New Territories North
然而，這些都只是硬件配套，最重要是政府的架構、思維有所改變，以及下定決心。
Yet all these are just hardware support . Most importantly the Government should change its organizational structure and mindset as well as show its determination
主席，按一般的行政分工，新界新市鎮或新發展區的發展均由土木工程拓展署負責，以前則由新界拓展署負責。
President administratively speaking the development of new towns or NDAs in the New Territories is usually the work of the Civil Engineering and Development Department CEDD and was the work of the Territory Development Department in the past
原因很簡單，新界北發展不僅是一個新市鎮的發展，更肩負推動本港產業轉型及建構新產業的重任，同時亦涉及與深圳以至大灣區其他城市的緊密互動。
The reason is simple . The development of New Territories North is more than developing a new town but also shoulders the responsibility of promoting the transformation of industries and the development of new industries . In addition it also warrants close interaction with Shenzhen and other GBA cities
除制訂產業政策外，還需與內地交流合作，這些工作都不是土木工程拓展署可以獨力處理的。
The new body is not only responsible for formulating industrial policies but also needs to engage in exchanges and cooperation with the Mainland . Therefore it is not something that CEDD can handle on its own
其實，不論是本地或海外，凡涉及重要且具策略性的發展項目，往往會成立由各界專業人士組成的專責辦事處，以負責整個地區的轉型工作。
In fact to deal with major and strategically important development projects it is a common practice for Hong Kong or overseas countries to set up designated task force comprised of professionals from all sectors to take up the transformation of an entire district
海外例子有新加坡的濱海灣及倫敦的金絲雀碼頭，本地亦有很多例子，例如起動九龍東辦事處和大嶼山發展諮詢委員會分別負責跟進東九龍的轉型和大嶼山的整體發展。
Marina Bay in Singapore and Canary Wharf in London are some of the overseas examples . Here in Hong Kong we have also set up the Energizing Kowloon East Office and the Lantau Development Advisory Committee to follow up on the transformation of Kowloon East and the overall development of Lantau respectively
新界北面的面積和人口均較九龍東或大嶼山有過之而無不及，所以我認為相關的專責組織不一定要規模龐大，但必須得到政府高層的政策支持，以及具備統籌和跨政策局的協調能力。
Given that northern New Territories is bigger than Kowloon East or Lantau in terms of area and population the relevant designated task force may not necessarily be large in scale . However it must gain the policy support of the senior government officials and is capable of overseeing and coordinating various Policy Bureaux
劉國勳議員，請動議你的議案。
Mr LAU Kwok - fan please move your motion
我期望今天的議案辯論可令大家日後聚焦新界北和口岸經濟的發展。
I hope that todays motion debate will allow us to focus on the development of New Territories North and the port economy in the future
我們再看一看1985年和2021年的衞星圖。
Let us look at the satellite pictures of 1985 and 2021 again
我現在向各位提出的待決議題是：劉國勳議員動議的議案，經姚思榮議員修正後，予以通過。
I now put the question to you and that is That the motion moved by Mr LAU Kwok - fan as amended by Mr YIU Si - wing be passed
主席，我感謝蔣麗芸議員提出議案，讓政府能夠聽到議員對如何支援新生代方面的意見。
President I thank Dr CHIANG Lai - wan for proposing this motion so that the Government can listen to Members views on how we should support the new generation
兒童和青少年是香港社會的未來，所以政府非常重視培育我們的下一代，並在多個政策範疇為他們提供協助，期望可以支援他們的成長。
Children and adolescents are the future of Hong Kong . Therefore the Government has attached great importance to nurturing the next generation and providing them with support in different policy areas to foster their development
從青年發展政策的角度而言，本屆政府致力做好青年"三業三政"工作，即關注青年人的學業、事業和置業，以及鼓勵青年人議政、論政和參政，讓他們看到曙光和向上流動的機會。
Speaking of youth development policy the current - term Government strives to do our best in youth development work by addressing their concerns about education career pursuit and home ownership and encouraging their participation in politics as well as public policy discussion and debate . In so doing they will see hope and opportunities for upward mobility
由政務司司長擔任主席的青年發展委員會，負責加強政府內部的政策統籌工作，從而更有效地研究和討論青年人關注的議題。
The Youth Development Commission YDC chaired by the Chief Secretary for Administration is tasked to enhance policy coordination within the Government thereby enabling more effective examination and discussion of issues of concern to young people
自成立以來，委員會持續推出及優化不同計劃以協助青年人發展事業和向上流動，例如積極推廣青年生涯規劃，協助青年人選擇合適的升學就業方向；資助和舉辦內地及海外青年交流及實習計劃，讓青年人擴闊視野、累積工作經驗、增強他們日後的就業優勢；以及在青年發展基金下推出資助計劃，以支持有意在香港或大灣區內地城市創業的青年創業。
Since its establishment YDC has kept launching and enhancing different schemes to facilitate young peoples career development and promote their upward mobility . For example it actively promotes youth life planning to help young people choose the right education and career path; it funds and organizes exchange and internship programmes in the Mainland and overseas for young people to broaden their horizons gain working experience and enhance their competitiveness in employment in the future; and it launches funding schemes under the Youth Development Fund to provide assistance to young people who are interested in starting their businesses in Hong Kong or Mainland cities of the Greater Bay Area
此外，政府亦積極推動青年宿舍計劃，藉此滿足部分在職青年對擁有自己居住空間的渴望，並讓他們可為日後的個人發展作儲蓄。
Moreover the Government has actively promoted the Youth Hostel Scheme to meet the aspirations of some working youth in having their own living spaces and enable them to accumulate savings for pursuing their aspirations in personal development
政府將會繼續與相關持份者保持緊密聯繫，進一步擴闊及提升各項青年發展工作。
The Government will continue to maintain close liaison with the relevant stakeholders to further expand and enhance our youth development efforts
在教育方面，政府相信教育是培育人才、促進社會流動的重要一環。
In respect of education the Government holds that education plays a key role in nurturing talent and promoting social mobility
教育局以專業領航的原則，同時肩負投資教育的長遠承擔，持續投放大量資源，致力推行優質教育，包括通過各項學生資助計劃確保個別學生不會因經濟困難而失去接受教育的機會。
The Education Bureau will uphold the professional‑led principle and shoulder the long - term commitment to education investment by putting in substantial resources to provide quality education . For instance it has introduced a number of financial assistance schemes for students to ensure that no students will be denied access to education because of lack of means
從社會福利政策的角度，勞工及福利局和社會福利署提供的各項福利服務，是為有福利需要的兒童及青少年或者有經濟困難的家庭提供支援，協助這些家庭面對甚至走出困境，讓兒童及青少年在成長路上得到更好的發展機會。
From the perspective of social welfare policy the various welfare services provided by the Labour and Welfare Bureau and the Social Welfare Department SWD are government support to children and adolescents with welfare needs or families in financial difficulty . They are provided to assist those families in dealing with or even getting out of their difficulties so that the children and adolescents concerned can have more development opportunities on their path of growth
就此，社署一直透過部門的服務單位及非政府機構營辦的資助服務，為有福利需要的兒童及青少年提供服務，包括為有經濟需要的家庭提供各種幼兒照顧服務；在幼稚園及幼兒中心提供社工服務以及早識別有高風險的家庭以轉介適切的服務；為邊緣少年提供外展社工服務；為有殘疾的兒童及青少年提供康復服務；透過精神健康綜合社區中心向受學業、社交或情緒問題困擾的兒童及青少年提供專業輔導；以至為因不同原因而暫時未能得到家人適當照顧的兒童或有行為或情緒問題的青少年提供住宿照顧服務。
To this end SWD has all along served children and adolescents with welfare needs through its service units and the subvented services of non - governmental organizations . The relevant services include various child care services for families in financial difficulty; social work service in kindergartens and child care centres which seeks to identify high - risk families at an early stage and refer them to appropriate services; outreaching social work service for youth at risk; rehabilitation services for children and adolescents with disabilities; professional counselling service for children and adolescents with academic social or emotional problems provided in the Integrated Community Centre for Mental Wellness; and residential care services for children who are temporarily devoid of adequate family care for different reasons or adolescents with behavioural or emotional difficulties
我們亦透過成立兒童發展基金和攜手扶弱基金，推動社福界、商界和政府三方的夥伴合作，共同扶助基層及其他弱勢家庭。
We have also set up the Child Development Fund and Partnership Fund for the Disadvantaged to promote tripartite partnership among the welfare sector the business community and the Government in helping the grass - roots households and other disadvantaged families
其中，兒童發展基金透過目標儲蓄、師友配對和個人發展規劃3個主要元素，幫助10至16歲或正就讀小四至中四的弱勢社群兒童，包括收入不超過家庭住戶每月收入中位數75%；又或家庭正在領取綜合社會保障援助、在職家庭津貼等經濟援助的兒童，提升他們抗逆和規劃未來的能力，擴闊個人網絡，從而建立正確的個人目標。
The Child Development Fund makes use of its three major components namely targeted savings mentorship programme and personal development plans to help the disadvantaged children aged 10 to 16 or students at Primary Four to Secondary Four level whose household income is less than 75 % of the Median Monthly Domestic Household Income or whose families are receiving financial assistance such as the Comprehensive Social Security Assistance or the Working Family Allowance . Through the enhancement of personal resilience and ability in planning for their future the participants will be driven to set the right personal goals
蔣麗芸議員在星期一的福利事務委員會會議向我提及是否可以提高計劃中的儲蓄金額及擴闊受惠對象至所有兒童及青少年，而不限於來自基層的弱勢兒童，並擴闊參與兒童的年齡層。
At the meeting of the Panel on Welfare Services held on Monday Dr CHIANG Lai - wan asked me whether the savings target of the Fund could be increased; whether the target beneficiaries could be expanded to all children and adolescents instead of confining to the disadvantaged children at the grassroots level and whether the scope of beneficiaries could be expanded to cover children of all ages
鑒於基金成立的目的是改善跨代貧窮的情況，而基層家庭往往較缺乏條件扶助下一代建立個人網絡及擴闊視野，我們認為基金應繼續聚焦基層家庭的兒童。
However given that the objective of the Fund is to alleviate cross - generational poverty and the grass - roots families are often the ones who lack the means to help the next generation build their social networks and broaden their horizons we hold that the Fund should continue to focus on helping grass - roots children
值得注意的是，兒童發展基金的目標儲蓄是讓參加者可於計劃的第三年使用該筆儲蓄實踐個人發展規劃，例如學習某些感興趣的技能；購置有用於個人發展的工具等，讓參加者在義務友師引導下，能夠掌握因應自己的興趣和能力計劃未來發展方向的能力，從而建立自信及正面、積極的人生觀。
Members should note that participants of the Child Development Fund may use their targeted savings to realize their personal development plans in the third year of the project . For example they may use the savings to learn their interested skills or buy tools to facilitate their personal development . Under the guidance of volunteer mentors the participants will learn how to plan for the future based on their interests and abilities so as to build their confidence and developing a positive outlook to life
考慮到活動的性質，參加者不宜太年幼。
Considering the nature of such activities we do not think our participants should be too young
主席，今日有民政事務局局長及教育局副局長與我一起參與這次的議案辯論。
President today the Secretary for Home Affairs and the Under Secretary for Education are with me in this motion debate
我們會仔細聆聽議員的發言，然後在總結時，再分別就議員可能提出有關青年發展、教育及社會福利事務的意見作出回應。
We will listen carefully to Members speeches and respond to their views on youth development education social welfare etc . in our concluding remarks
主席，我謹以負責審議根據《建築物條例》第23條提出的擬議決議案的小組委員會主席身份，向本會匯報小組委員會的工作重點。
President in my capacity as the Chairman of the Subcommittee on Proposed Resolution under section 23 of the Buildings Ordinance Cap . 123 I report to the Legislative Council on the salient points of the work of the Subcommittee
擬議決議案的目的，是修訂《建築物條例》附表8，指定額外11類現有違例小型適意設施為訂明建築物或建築工程，讓這些較低風險的設施可在小型工程監管制度下提供的檢核計劃下予以保留及繼續使用，以切合樓宇住戶的實際需要。
The proposed resolution seeks to amend Schedule 8 to the Buildings Ordinance to designate an additional 11 types of existing unauthorized minor amenity features as prescribed building or building works so that such lower risk features can be retained for continued use under the validation scheme provided in the Minor Works Control System MWCS to meet the genuine needs of building occupants
小組委員會與政府當局舉行了一次會議，以審議擬議決議案，曾討論的事宜包括檢核計劃的涵蓋範圍、進行擬議訂明建築物或建築工程所需的批准，以及寮屋違規擴建物的規管制度。
The Subcommittee has held one meeting with the Administration to scrutinize the proposed resolution discussing issues such as the coverage of the validation scheme approvals required for carrying out the proposed prescribed building or building works and the regulation of unauthorized extensions of squatter structures
小組委員會亦有邀請公眾提交書面意見。
The Subcommittee has also invited written views from the public
委員認同當局的建議能切合樓宇住戶的實際需要，並察悉住戶可根據《2020年建築物規例》訂明的簡化規定進行與該11類小型適意設施有關的建築工程。
Members agree that the Administrations proposals can meet the genuine needs of building occupants and note that the occupants can carry out the building works relating to the said 11 types of minor amenity features pursuant to the simplified requirements under the Building Minor Works Amendment Regulation 2020
有委員建議當局考慮准許一些檢核計劃未涵蓋、但樓宇常用的違例設施，經訂明建築專業人士或註冊承建商檢查及進行所需加固後，可予以保留使用，避免浪費。
Some members have suggested that the Administration should consider allowing certain unauthorized features commonly used in buildings but not yet covered in the validation scheme be retained for continued use after undergoing inspection and necessary strengthening by a prescribed building professional or registered contractor to avoid wastage
當局表示會按風險為本的策略不時檢視檢核計劃，以研究可否納入更多小型適意設施。
The Administration has indicated that it will adopt a risk - based approach to review the validation scheme from time to time to see if more minor amenity features can be included under the scheme
有委員建議政府當局考慮在寮屋管制制度下，引入類似小型工程監管制度的機制，處理寮屋的違規擴建物，並考慮理順寮屋管制政策。
Some members have suggested that the Administration should consider introducing a squatter control mechanism similar to MWCS to deal with the unauthorized extensions of squatter structures and rationalizing the squatter control policy
當局承諾把委員的意見轉交地政總署考慮。
The Administration has undertaken to relay members views to the Lands Department for consideration
小組委員會支持這項擬議決議案，亦不會提出修正案。
The Subcommittee supports this proposed resolution and will not propose any amendments
我謹此報告。
I so report
同時，我希望借此機會向當局表達兩個訴求。
Meanwhile I would like to take this opportunity to convey my two requests to the Administration
這是很好的做法，我希望當局能夠考慮。
This is a good practice and I hope that the Administration will give thought to it
第二，是寮屋問題。
My second request concerns the issue of squatters
儘管兩者同屬發展局的管轄範圍，但業主多建的小型適意設施可以保留，寮屋卻是多建1呎便會被拆。
This policy makes an interesting contrast with the present arrangement for minor amenity features . Although both minor amenity features and squatters fall under the purview of the Development Bureau the former even if unauthorized can be retained whereas the latter will be demolished even if the relevant unauthorized extension is of negligible size
我希望當局能夠適當理順有關情況，尤其是在寮屋方面。
I urge the Administration to rationalize this situation by addressing the issue of squatters in particular
何俊賢議員將會動議一項議案討論這個問題，相信屆時我們可以再作討論。
Mr Steven HO will soon move a motion on this issue and I believe we can discuss it again then
這個問題已經迫在眉睫，希望當局留意。
This is an imminent problem that warrants the attention of the authorities
主席，今天各位議員就蔣麗芸議員動議的議案發表了很多意見，我覺得均顯示議員與政府一樣，非常重視支援及培育我們的下一代。
President today Members have expressed many views on the motion proposed by Dr CHIANG Lai - wan . I think this shows that like the Government Members have attached great importance to the support and nurturing of our next generation
剛才民政事務局局長及教育局副局長已分別從青年政策及教育政策角度作出回應，我以下主要從社會福利政策角度作出回應。
Just now the Secretary for Home Affairs and the Under Secretary for Education have responded from the perspectives of youth policy and education policy respectively . I will now respond mainly from the perspective of social welfare policy
正如我在開場發言時提到，政府目前提供的社會福利服務和措施，目標都是識別有特別需要協助的兒童及青少年，繼而有針對地為他們提供所需的支援。
As I mentioned in my opening remarks the social welfare services and measures currently provided by the Government all aimed at identifying children and young people in special need of assistance and providing them with the necessary support in a targeted manner
例如各類幼兒服務、課餘託管收費減免計劃、 地區青少年發展資助計劃，也包括兒童發展基金、攜手扶弱基金等，為有需要的基層兒童和家庭提供有關協助。
For example the various child care services the Fee Waiving Subsidy Scheme for After School Care Programme the District Support Scheme for Children and Youth Development as well as the Child Development Fund and the Partnership Fund for the Disadvantaged all seek to provide the necessary assistance to grass - roots children and families in need
主席，政府提供的社會福利服務和措施，對象都是有特別需要協助的兒童及青少年。
President the social welfare services and measures provided by the Government are targeted at children and young people with special needs
蔣麗芸議員議案中的"新生代基金"提倡為所有家庭及兒童而設，不論兒童的家庭是否有財政需要，或者兒童本身是否有殘疾或其他特殊需要。
The New Generation Fund advocated in Dr CHIANG Lai - wans motion is provided for all families and children regardless of whether the childrens families have financial needs or whether the children themselves have disabilities or other special needs
在這方面，現時社會對於沒有政府財政支援需要的家庭應不應該受惠於公帑資助的計劃有不同意見。
In this regard there are divergent views in the community on whether families that do not need financial support from the Government should benefit from public funding schemes
考慮到當前緊絀的公共資源，從福利政策角度而言，勞工及福利局和社會福利署有責任確保公帑優先運用於政府已承諾為弱勢社群推行的福利措施，而這些都是需求非常殷切的重要服務，而且不少的輪候時間亦十分長。
Considering the currently tight public resources the Labour and Welfare Bureau and the Social Welfare Department are from the perspective of welfare policy duty - bound to ensure that public funds are first devoted to welfare initiatives that the Government has committed to implement for the disadvantaged . All these are important much sought - after services and many of them have entailed a long wait
例如，議員一直要求政府加快提供長者和殘疾人士住宿院舍及幼兒照顧中心，讓未能獨立生活或無法由家人給予充分照顧的老、弱和幼兒能夠盡快獲得合適的照顧和支援。
For example Members have been calling on the Government to expedite the provision of residential care homes for the elderly and people with disabilities as well as child care centres so that the elderly the vulnerable and young children who cannot live independently or cannot be adequately cared for by their families can receive appropriate care and support as soon as possible
社會亦一直有意見認為應加強對照顧者的支援，尤其要紓緩他們在財政、情緒和社交上的需要。
There are also public views that support for carers should be strengthened particularly to relieve their financial emotional and social needs
此外，政府亦正積極達成縮短學前兒童評估服務的輪候時間，以及盡快落實學前康復服務"零輪候"的目標等，把握兒童幼年的治療黃金時間。
In addition the Government is actively working towards the goals of shortening the waiting time for assessment services for pre - school children and expeditiously implementing the target of zero waiting time for pre - school rehabilitation services so as to seize the golden opportunity to treat children in their early years
這些都是當前我們必須優先集中資源和力量做好的福利服務。
At this moment we should accord priority to pooling our resources and efforts to the provision of timely welfare services
主席，在社會福利的範疇，政府將繼續針對性扶助有需要服務的兒童及青少年。
President in the area of social welfare the Government will continue to provide targeted assistance to children and young people in need of services
他們做事真的很快，手起刀落，一邊設計，一邊研究，一邊學習，值得我們借鏡。
They are truly highly efficient by designing studying and learning at the same time which is worthy of our reference
"北創科、南金融"，香港需要甚麼？
Under the development of innovation and technology in the North and financial development in the South what is required of Hong Kong?
一平方公里等於100公頃土地，而15平方公里便等於1,500公頃土地，在9年內便完成。
As 1 sq km of land is equal to 100 hectares of land 15 sq km of land would be equal to 1 500 hectares of land all created in nine years
剛才有同事提到，香港一味研究，進度緩慢。
A colleague just said that there were endless studies in Hong Kong and the progress was slow
代理主席，本會今天討論"以口岸經濟帶動新界北發展"的議案。
Deputy President this Council discusses the motion on Driving the development of New Territories North with port economy today
特區政府有新農業政策，除發展農業園和成立基金外，第三項政策便是發展農業優先區。
The second one is relocation and demolition . The SAR Government has a new agriculture policy . Apart from the policies on the development of the Agricultural Park and the establishment of a fund the third policy is the development of Agricultural Priority Areas
我認為特區政府對這方面投放的資源相當少。
I think the resources devoted by the SAR Government to this aspect are considerably small
負責漁農業的食物及衞生局在過去一兩年相當忙碌，完全無暇理會我們，加上出任局長的通常是醫生或護士，他們未必懂得耕作和農業科技。
The Food and Health Bureau FHB responsible for the agriculture and fisheries sector has been very busy over the past one to two years and does not have time to cater for our needs . Moreover as the Secretaries for Food and Health are usually doctors or nurses they may not have any knowledge about farming and agricultural technologies
從這個角度看來，如要重新做好安置政策，食衞局、發展局及其他牽涉的部門應組成跨部門安置小組，重新審視相關問題。
From this perspective in order to put the rehousing policy in order FHB the Development Bureau and other departments involved should form an inter - departmental rehousing group to review the relevant problems afresh
我舉一個具體的例子。
Let me cite a concrete example
搬遷豬場就像動物大遷徙般，要搬遷豬公、豬婆，有很多工作要做。
Relocation of pig farms is like animal emigration . Relocating male and female pigs involves a lot of work
代理主席，今天討論的議題是"以口岸經濟帶動新界北發展"。
Deputy President the subject of our discussion today is Driving the development of New Territories North with port economy
中央大力支持粤港澳大灣區發展，香港和深圳作為大灣區兩個"龍頭"城市，兩個城市的發展有很大分別，其中一河之隔、近在咫尺的深圳正火速發展，有更多先行先試和改革新政策出台。
The Central Authorities have vigorously supported the development of the Guangdong - Hong Kong - Macao Greater Bay Area GBA . Hong Kong and Shenzhen are the two leading cities in GBA which have adopted very different approaches in their development . Shenzhen very close to Hong Kong and only a river apart is developing rapidly by introducing a lot of pilot measures and new reform policies
相反，新界邊境地區的發展嚴重滯後，繼續停留在規劃再規劃，研究再研究的階段。
On the contrary development in the border area of the New Territories is lagging far behind and remains in the stage of endless planning and studies
政府是時候急起直追，在規劃上要有改革思維，加強跨部門協調規劃工作。
It is time for the Government to catch up expeditiously; adopt a reformist mindset in planning and strengthen cross - departmental coordination and planning
在制訂政策時，既要考慮大灣區發展所需，亦要融入國家發展大局，不要再劃地為牢，各家自掃門前雪。
In formulating policies the Government has to consider the needs of the development of GBA and integrate with the main development pattern of the country
代理主席，要列舉政府在新界邊境規劃發展落後於形勢的例子，真的是不勝枚舉，5分鐘發言時間真的不夠，可能5日5夜也說不完。
It should no longer impose its own bounds and mind its own business . Deputy President there are numerous examples which I can quote to illustrate that the Governments planning on development lags behind the times . While five minutes is surely inadequate even five days and nights will not be enough
政府將會向立法會申請一筆7億9,000萬元的撥款，為新界北發展作詳細設計和研究撥款的規劃布局。
The Government will make an application to the Legislative Council for a funding of 790 million for detailed design and study on the planning of the development of New Territories North
新田/落馬洲發展樞紐的總面積約為320公頃，雖然當中有四分之一是棕地，但整體只能提供約31,000個單位，容納8萬多人。
The San TinLok Ma Chau Development Node covers a total area of around 320 hectares . Although one fourth of it consists of brownfield sites it can only provide about 31 000 units and accommodate 80 000 - odd people
