最後，我再次呼籲反對派不要影響內務委員會的正常運作，盡快選出主席。
Finally I must urge the opposition camp again to stop obstructing the normal operation of the House Committee so that the Chairman can be elected as soon as possible
事實上，很多惠及民生的議案和法案皆在輪候審議，但本屆立法會的任期只餘下半年多便會完結，所有未能通過的法案均需重新按程序提交立法會。
As a matter of fact many motions and bills that are beneficial to peoples livelihood are waiting in the line for deliberation . But the remaining term of the current Legislative Council will come to an end in about half a year by which time all those bills that have not been passed will have to undergo all over again the procedures for presentation to the Legislative Council
我希望泛民議員不要用這樣的手法或這樣的字眼混淆視聽，欺騙市民。
I hope pan - democratic Members can stop using this tactic or such words to confuse and deceive people
主席，我們稍後要用大量時間，辯論一項可能最終無法符合《議事規則》第545條規定的議案。
President we will spend a lot of time to debate this motion which ultimately may not satisfy the requirements under Rule 545 of the Rules of Procedure
當然，羅致光局長可以選擇浪費我們大量時間之後，才澄清他其後的做法。
Of course Secretary LAW may opt to waste a huge amount of our time before clarifying his approach
但是，我想問一問，可否透 過主席要求局長說清楚，在這個階段，根據主席的信件，明顯看到經過法律顧問的詮釋，他極有可能不符合《議事規則》第545條的，故在現階段，他會否為了不浪費議會的時間，而將這項最終可能不符合《議事規則》的議案撤回？
However may I ask the Secretary via the President that on the basis of the Presidents letter and the interpretation of the legal adviser that it is very likely that his proposal cannot satisfy Rule 545 of the Rules of Procedures requirements will he make it clear that he will withdraw the motion which ultimately may not satisfy the requirements under the Rules of Procedure for the sake of not wasting the time of the legislature at the current stage?
棕地作業屬商業運作，尋覓經營地點屬市場行為，一如其他受影響的商業運作，政府的基本政策是透過向合資格的業務經營者提供金錢補償，協助經營者作出籌劃，政府不會為受影響的商業運作提供"一換一"調遷安置。
As brownfield operations are business initiatives their search for operating space is a market behaviour . As in the situations of other affected business operators the Governments fundamental policy is to provide monetary compensation for eligible business operators to assist them in making their own arrangements upon clearances instead of providing one - on - one reprovisioning arrangements for the affected business operations
事實上，目前土地供應緊絀，期望政府發展棕地時提供"一換一"調遷安置亦不切實際。
In fact given the land scarcity it is unrealistic to expect the Government to offer one - on - one reprovisioning in the course of pursuing developments on brownfield sites
除在洪水橋/廈村及元朗南新發展區分別預留約61及11公頃土地，作物流設施、港口後勤、貯物及工場等用途外，我們會繼續從大型發展項目中，選取面積較大而交通相對可達並設有基建設施的土地，藉此為棕地作業提供運作空間。
In addition to the land respectively reserved in Hung Shui KiuHa Tsuen HSKHT and Yuen Long South YLS New Development Areas NDAs of 61 and 11 hectares for logistics facilities port back - up storage and workshops we will continue to identify large land parcels with good accessibility and infrastructure in major development projects to provide space for brownfield operations
其中，我們將於1月20日向發展事務委員會簡介龍鼓灘近岸填海工程項目，當中建議亦包括提供集中、有序及更具土地使用效益的場地予棕地作業。
In this connection we will brief the Panel on Development on the Lung Kwu Tan near - shore reclamation project on January 20 . The recommendations also include supplying land for concentrated orderly and more land - use - efficient accommodation for brownfield operations
就盧偉國議員提問的各個部分，現回覆如下： 一 根據規劃署早前公布《新界棕地使用及作業現況研究》，若面臨清拆，63%棕地作業受訪者表示會另覓地方繼續經營，43%受訪者表示其作業需在露天場地營運。
My reply to the various parts of the question raised by Ir Dr LO Wai - kwok is as follows 1 According to the Study on Existing Profile and Operations of Brownfield Sites in the New Territories promulgated earlier by the Planning Department PlanD 63 % of brownfield operation respondents said they would find alternative sites to continue operation upon clearances . 43 % of the respondents said that they saw the need to operate in open - air sites
在洪水橋/廈村及元朗南新發展區預留的72公頃土地，大部分會用作發展多層工業樓宇，餘下用地可作露天貯物。
In this regard most of the 72 hectares of land reserved in HSKHT and YLS NDAs will be used for development of multi - storey buildings MSBs and the remaining area may be used for open storage
由於發展多層樓宇的用地地積比可高達5至7不等，有助填補因發展棕地而減少的作業面積。
As the plot ratio of the land used to develop MSBs range from 5 to 7 it will help compensate for the reduction in industrial floor space due to development of brownfield sites
除新發展區內預留的露天貯物用地外，運作上未能"上樓"的受影響棕地作業者亦可考慮搬遷至新界其他地區劃作"露天貯物"的用地。
Apart from the open storage land reserved in the NDAs affected brownfield operators who are unable to relocate their businesses to MSBs may also consider other areas zoned Open Storage in the New Territories
此外，如物色到的搬遷地點座落其他地帶，受影響棕地作業者可向城市規劃委員會提出規劃申請。
In addition if the site identified for relocation is under another zoning the affected brownfield operators may submit a planning application to the Town Planning Board TPB
發展局會協調相關部門從規劃和土地事宜上向申請者提供諮詢和加快審批流程。
The Development Bureau will coordinate relevant departments in advising the applicants from the planning and land perspectives and help expedite processing of applications by TPB in accordance with the Planning Guidelines No
城規會會按一 般稱為"13E規劃指引"處理這些申請。
13E . PlanD is reviewing the Planning Guidelines No
規劃署正根據《棕地研究》結果檢視"13E規劃指引"，包括如何有效引導相關行業至合適營運場地，避免棕地擴散。
13E with reference to the results of the Brownfield Study and is seeing how to guide the relevant industries to operate in suitable sites to avoid proliferation of brownfield operations
二 根據《棕地研究》，10%受訪棕地作業者表示若面臨清拆會結業。
2 According to the Brownfield Study 10 % of the brownfield operator respondents said that they would terminate their businesses upon clearance
各個新發展區項目的棕地正容納不同行業，這些行業多年來一直依賴棕地的低廉租金。
Brownfield sites within various NDA projects are accommodating different industrial operations which have been relying on the low rent for years
整合它們至多層樓宇會推高經營者的租金成本，令傳統或邊際利潤較低的行業感到壓力，甚或面臨淘汰，純以市場主導模式發展和營運多層樓宇可能難以照顧所有棕地行業的需要。
Consolidating these operations into MSBs will drive up the rental costs of operators posing pressure on traditional or lower - margin industries which may even be phased out . Development and operation of MSBs under a market - led approach may not on its own address the needs of all brownfield industries
因此，我們考慮借助市場力量發展多層樓宇之餘，亦會研究應否及如何引入適當土地用途、租客和租金等要求，以確保建成的多層樓宇能照顧棕地作業者的實際運作情況。
Therefore when considering leveraging the use of market forces to develop MSBs we will also study whether and how to introduce appropriate conditions such as land user restriction tenant selection and rental requirements to ensure that the commissioned MSBs can cater for the actual operation of brownfield industries in future
為此，政府即將展開市場意向調查，以探測在不同情況及涉及不同合約要求及招標條款下，市場就發展及營運為主要棕地業務而設的多層樓宇的投資意向。
To this end the Government will launch a market sounding exercise shortly to ascertain the market interest towards developing and operating MSBs for key brownfield businesses under different scenarios involving different contractual requirements and tender conditions
我們希望在本年年中可以向發展事務委員會匯報研究的結果及發展路向。三 總的來說，我們會循3個主要方向為整合棕地作業做好土地規劃工作。第一，我們會繼續進行土地用途檢討並落實經改劃的用途。
We hope to brief the Panel on Development by mid - 2020 on the findings and way forward
主席，局長在主體答覆內承認九成棕地有經濟活動，支援不同行業，但卻表示不會為受影響的商業運作提供"一換一"調遷安置，又指出目前土地供應緊絀，期望當局提供"一換一"調遷安置是不切實際。
President while the Secretary has admitted in the main reply that 90 % of brownfield sites are used for economic activities supporting different industries he has pointed out that the one - on - one reprovisioning arrangements would not be provided to the affected business operations and that given the land scarcity at present it would be unrealistic to expect the Government to offer one - on - one reprovisioning
從以上表述已可清楚顯示，在這方面將出現10個煲可能只有五六個蓋的困局，目前根本沒有足夠土地讓這些必須存在的經濟活動持續運作，這對香港的整體經濟發展將極為不利。
The aforesaid remarks have clearly shown that we will be trapped in the predicament of having only five to six lids for ten pots and there is simply not enough land at present to ensure the continual operation of these essential economic activities . This is extremely unfavourable to the overall economic development of Hong Kong
此外，當前有部分新界新發展區的基建工程已經展開，例如古洞北、粉嶺北的工程，處理受影響棕地作業的工作因而迫在眉睫。
Furthermore as the infrastructure projects for some NDAs in the New Territories such as those for Kwu Tung North and Fanling North have already commenced there is an imminent need to work out the arrangements for the affected brownfield operations
主席，一如局長所指出，預留的土地相當有限，但龍鼓灘近岸填海工程所能提供的較大幅用地卻未知何時才能實現，所以我的補充質詢很簡單，只有一句說話：遠水焉能救近火？
President like what the Secretary has pointed out there is very limited land reserved for this purpose and the availability of the large land parcels that can be provided under the Lung Kwu Tan near - shore reclamation project is still unknown . Hence my supplementary question is very simple and it can be summed up in only one sentence How would distant water help to put out a fire close at hand?
除新發展區外，改劃土地或現時劃作貯物用途的土地亦適宜作棕地作業用途。
Apart from NDAs land rezoned or areas zoned Open Storage at present are also suitable for accommodating brownfield operations
就龍鼓灘近岸填海工程項目，我們會在下星期舉行的發展事務委員會會議上，與各位議員進行討論，希望議員能多加支持，令該項目可盡快上馬，以便提供更多新增土地容納棕地作業。
We will discuss the issues concerning the Lung Kwu Tan near - shore reclamation project with Members at the meeting of the Panel on Development to be held next week and we call on Members to support the early implementation of the project so that there will be more newly created land for accommodating brownfield operations
至於現已開展的新發展區工程，例如洪水橋/廈村新發展區範圍內約有246公頃棕地，我們會協調各施工階段，延長棕地清理過程，令清理工作更加暢順。
As for those NDA projects which have already commenced such as the 246 hectares or so of brownfield sites within the boundary of HSKHT NDA we will coordinate the construction phasing and smoothen the clearance process by spreading out the displacement of brownfield sites over an extended period
我們亦會安排預留新發展區內作港口後勤用途、貯物及工場和現代物流設施的61公頃用地，讓大部分工地平整及基礎設施工程於較早階段完成，以便適時發展多層樓宇，容納受後續階段影響需要遷離的棕地作業。
We will also incorporate in earlier phases the site formation and engineering infrastructure works for majority of the 61 hectares of land reserved for port back - up storage and workshop uses as well as modern logistics so that the MSBs can be developed in a timely manner to accommodate displaced brownfield operations in subsequent phases
例如在洪水橋的第一期發展中，首批多層樓宇用地預計可於2023年完成工地平整，讓樓宇在2027年落成，以配合自2028年起的較大規模棕地作業清理。
For example the first batch of MSB sites to be formed under the First Phase development of HSK NDA is expected to be ready in 2023 for building completion targeted in 2027 in time for the larger scale clearance of brownfield operations from 2028 onward
基於土木工程拓展署進行以多層樓宇容納棕地作業的技術可行性研究的初步結果，政府即將展開市場意向調查，探測在不同情況下，市場就發展及營運為主要棕地業務而設的多層樓宇的投資意向。
Riding on the initial findings of studies commissioned by the Civil Engineering and Development Department confirming the technical feasibility of using MSBs for accommodating brownfield operations the Government will launch a market sounding exercise shortly to ascertain the market interest towards developing and running MSBs for key brownfield businesses under different scenarios
一如我在主體答覆所說，我們希望在今年年中向發展事務委員會匯報研究的結果及發展路向。
As I have said in the main reply we hope to brief the Panel on Development by the middle of this year on the findings and way forward
當得出清楚路向後，希望能找到適合的方法提供土地，供棕地業務經營者繼續營運。
It is hoped that after a clear way forward has been mapped out suitable ways can be identified for the provision of land to ensure the continual operation of brownfield businesses
我相信政府在如何使用棕地的問題上，應有思維上的改變。
I think there should be a change in the Governments thinking as far as the use of brownfield sites is concerned
以洪水橋為例，192公頃棕地的43%若用作露天營運，即大約涉及82公頃土地，但當局現時的規劃只預留了24公頃土地作多層及"露天貯物"用途，明顯並不足夠。
Take the Hung Shui Kiu project as an example if 43 % of the 192 - hectare brownfield sites are to be used for open - air operations about 82 hectares of land will be needed . However under the current planning only 24 hectares of land has been reserved for the development of MSBs and open storage . It is obviously not enough
其實，我們在以多層樓宇容納棕地作業的研究中曾作出探討，得悉這些多層樓宇有別於一般工廈，會加入特別的設計元素，包括提供較大作業空間、較重樓層載荷、較高樓底、特別設計運輸通道等，足以為絕大部分現有新界棕地作業類別提供營運空間。
As a matter of fact we have examined the issues in the study on the feasibility of using MSBs for accommodating brownfield operations . It is noted that these MSBs are different from ordinary industrial buildings in that the design of the former will incorporate special elements to enable the provision of larger working space higher floor loading higher ceiling height and specially designed delivery passageway so that they can provide sufficient operating space for most of the existing brownfield operations in the New Territories
我們曾詢問有關的棕地作業者，是否一定需要在露天場地營運，他們可能不太了解現時構思中的多層工業大廈，其實足可承載大部分棕地作業者的營運。
We have asked the brownfield operators concerned if it is absolutely necessary for them to operate in open - air sites as they may not know much about the MSBs being contemplated which in fact have sufficient capacity to house most of the brownfield operations
當然，有些涉及大型機器的作業，例如建造業的大型吊臂、鑽孔樁的鑽台，的確需要放置於露天場地，故此我們在規劃有關的補償用地時，已在露天場地預留貯存用地。
As for operations which involve large machinery such as heavy - duty crane or drilling platform of bored piles used in the construction industry the equipment should indeed be stored in open area . In this connection areas for storage purpose have already been reserved in open - air sites at the time when we are planning to provide land for reprovisioning the affected operations
正如我在主體答覆中指出，新界現時仍有很多項目已劃出土地作"露天貯物"用途，這些用地有接近171公頃之多。
As I have pointed out in the main reply land has currently been reserved for Open Storage in many development projects in the New Territories and these sites cover an area as large as 171 hectares
此外，如受影響棕地作業者在其他用地找到適合經營的場所，規劃署會提供諮詢服務及協助他們向城規會提出申請，城規會會按"13E規劃指引"處理這些申請。
In addition if the affected brownfield operators have identified other sites that are suitable for relocation PlanD will provide advisory service and help them submit a planning application to TPB which will process the application in accordance with the Planning Guidelines No . 13E
所以，即使很多作業者收取了現金津貼，他們仍可考慮在其他地方尋找適合經營的場所，政府相關部門會就此提供協助。
Therefore although many affected operators have received ex - gratia compensation they can still consider relocating their brownfield operations to other suitable sites which they have identified and the relevant government departments will render assistance in this respect
這些用地的數量雖然不多，但相信也有一定幫助，我們會適時將這些用地推出市場，供相關經營者考慮。
We believe this can be of certain help despite the small number of sites that will be available . We will put up the sites in the market in a timely manner for consideration by the operators concerned
從主體答覆第一部分的最後一句，可發現政府的政策很清楚，就是要避免棕地擴散，因為棕地作業不單是在不適合的農地上進行破壞，加上沒有污水渠，導致對周邊社區和河道造成長期的污染問題。
It can be noted from the last sentence of part 1 of the main reply that the Governments policy is clearly to avoid the scattered distribution of brownfield sites . This is because brownfield operations have caused damage to agricultural land which is actually not suitable for accommodating such economic activities . Moreover due to the absence of sewerage systems such operations have also brought about long - term pollution problems to communities and rivers in the vicinity
所以，政府的政策若是要避免棕地擴散，我便要問局長，假如根據他在主體答覆中提出的做法，放寬或促進業界人士透過《城市規劃條例》，把非用作"露天貯物"用途的土地改劃作"露天貯物"用途，這豈不是自打嘴巴，透過這種做法讓棕地進一步擴散？
Therefore if it is really the Governments policy to avoid the scattered distribution of brownfield sites I would like to ask the Secretary According to the main reply it is the Governments current practice to relax the relevant control or facilitate trade members to submit planning applications under the Town Planning Ordinance for rezoning the land not reserved for open storage uses to Open Storage zone . Is he saying that the Government contradicts itself by allowing brownfield sites to be further scattered across the territory?
主席，多謝朱議員提出的補充質詢。
President I thank Mr CHU for the supplementary question
關於棕地擴散的問題，規劃署所作的《棕地研究》，其實是政府初次為新界棕地進行的整體性調查，目的是透過與相關持份者會面、實地考察和進行問卷調查，從而更全面掌握新界棕地的整體分布和用途。
With regard to the issue of scattered distribution of brownfield sites the Brownfield Study undertaken by PlanD is actually the first comprehensive survey conducted by the Government on brownfield sites in the New Territories by comprehensively examining the overall distribution and uses of brownfield sites through stakeholder interviews site inspection and questionnaire surveys
由於政府過往並沒有就新界棕地作整體研究，因此難以確定其擴散情況。
As a comprehensive study on the same has never been conducted previously by the Government it is hard to ascertain the gravity of the problem of scattered distribution of brownfield sites
政府針對新界鄉郊土地，包括棕地上的非法土地使用、違反《城市規劃條例》的發展、非法佔用政府土地等情況的執管工作，會繼續從嚴處理。
The Government will continue to take stringent enforcement actions against illegal land uses unauthorized developments contravening the Town Planning Ordinance and illegal occupation of government land in the rural areas including brownfield sites in the New Territories
另外，城規會審批涉及"露天貯物"和港口後勤用途的規劃申請時，會考慮申請地點所屬地區的規劃意向、與四周土地用途及環 境是否協調，以及相關城規會規劃指引所訂的既定準則，避免這類用途在缺乏管制的情況下任意擴張。
Besides in assessing planning applications involving open storage and port back - up uses TPB will take into account the planning intention of the land on which the relevant sites are located compatibility with surrounding land uses and environment and the established planning criteria under the relevant planning guidelines of TPB so as to prevent uncontrolled sprawl of such uses
至於會否"開綠燈"，審批更多在不適當場地進行棕地作業的申請，城規會在審批涉及"露天貯物"和港口後勤用途的規劃申請時，會考慮現行的"13E規劃指引"所列明的規劃準則行事。
As to whether a green light will be given to grant approval to a large number of applications for carrying out brownfield operations on unsuitable sites TPB will take into consideration the planning criteria specified in the existing Planning Guidelines No . 13E when assessing planning applications involving open storage and port back - up uses
相關的考慮因素包括申請地點所屬地區的規劃意向、與四周的土地用途是否協調、申請地點的通達程度，以及擬議用途可能產生的影響，亦會避免讓這類用途在缺乏管制的情況下任意擴張。
The factors for consideration include the planning intention of the land on which the site is located compatibility with surrounding land uses site accessibility possible impacts generated by the proposed uses . Efforts will also be made to prevent uncontrolled sprawl of such uses
大家也知道成為母親需要懷孕多少個月，所以《2019年僱傭條例草案》影響很多未來準備生育小朋友的準母親是必然的事情。
We all know how many months it takes for a pregnant woman to become a mother . Hence the Employment Amendment Bill 2019 the Bill is obviously something that affects many expectant mothers who are prepared to have children . President we all can see the present situation in Hong Kong
主席，大家也看到香港目前的情況，失業率不斷攀升，很多店鋪也打算結業，企業亦減薪，經濟繼續滑落，社會亦動盪不安。
Many business owners plan to close down their shops . Enterprises announce salary cuts . The economy continues to slump and social unrest persists
究竟香港是否要如此沉淪，跌進萬丈深淵，還是真的可以重新出發，重新起飛呢？
Does Hong Kong have to fall into this deep abyss? . Or can it embark on a new journey and take off again?
我們應該任由社會以至立法會繼續以政治掛帥，繼續以政治凌駕所有民生議題，還是應該痛定思痛，重新出發，重回昔日光輝？
Should we let society and the Legislative Council continue to be dictated by politics and let livelihood issues be overridden by politics? . Or should we ponder about our painful experience and start again to recapture our past glory?
我們真的希望可以讓民生返回本位。
We truly hope that livelihood issues can be given their due importance
此刻，我們正在討論是否接納政府當局的建議，把《條例草案》直接交付人力事務委員會，處理延長產假的修例工作。
We are now deliberating whether we accept the proposal of the Government to directly refer the Bill to the Panel on Manpower which will scrutinize the legislative amendment on extending the maternity leave . President the 10 - week maternity leave has been implemented for more than 20 years in Hong Kong
大家引頸以待，遲來的14周產假，"林鄭"政府終於肯做， 關鍵在於政府和納稅人是否願意一起支付額外4周產假薪酬。
Finally the Carrie LAM Government is willing to implement the long - awaited and belated 14 - week maternity leave . It now hinges on whether the Government and the taxpayers are willing to shoulder the four weeks of additional maternity leave pay
我相信大家也很關注，因為14周產假在社會已討論多年並達致共識。
I believe Members are very concerned about the 14 - week maternity leave because society has spent years on discussing this issue and has come to a consensus . We should theoretically speaking have no objection about the major content of the legislative amendments . And I believe we can handle the scrutiny quickly
我們當然希望程序可以加快一點，不用大家等這麼久。
We certainly hope that the procedure can be quickened to save people from waiting that long
老實說，不知是否《條例草案》生不逢時，過去大半年的社會動盪亦明顯影響到現時立法會的工作。
Honestly the Bill comes at a bad time . Social unrest which persisted for the large part of last year has obviously affected the work of the Legislative Council
對於立法會要審議這麼多重要撥款，我們其實也很擔心，財政預算案及《2020年撥款條例草案》均會受拖累，情況持續的話，對香港是百害而無一利，我對此非常擔心。
In fact we are very worried that the Budget and the Appropriation Bill 2020 will also be affected . If the situation persists it will not do any good to Hong Kong . I am very worried about this indeed
主席，我想向正在聆聽立法會辯論的朋友說清楚，我們為何同意直接把延長產假修訂的《條例草案》交付人力事務委員會處理。
President I want to explain to the people who are listening to this Legislative Council debate why we agree to directly refer the Bill concerning the amendment proposal on extending the maternity leave to the Panel on Manpower
其實，很多對立法會事務有興趣的朋友也會留意到，"內會停擺"這套悶劇已史無前例地上演了數月，甚至可以申請健力士世界紀錄大全。
In fact people who are interested in the affairs of the Legislative Council should have noticed that the boring drama on the shutdown of the House Committee has unprecedentedly persisted for months . It may even apply for a Guinness World Record
我們開了12次會議，歷時20多小時，一如大家開啟電視收看電視劇般，對白均很接近，重複又重複，每逢星期五準時播放同一套劇，由同一個人擔任主持，但卻沒有履行作為主持應有的職務，他不肯選出正、副主席，因此要選出主席，簡直是遙遙無期。
We have held 12 meetings lasting some 20 hours in total . Similar to a TV drama our story line is similar and repetitive . Like watching a TV series shown every Friday at the same time people watch the House Committee meetings every Friday being chaired by the same person who does not fulfil his duty as the chair and refuses to proceed with the procedure of electing the Chairman and Deputy Chairman
內會停擺，不單影響內會同事，我們作為立法會議員，很願意在此上班和開會，但現在也影響到廣大市民。
The shutdown of the House Committee affects not only members of that Committee . We as Members of the Legislative Council are very willing to go to work and attend meetings in the Legislative Council . The general public are now at stake
所以，主席，基於上述前提，大家也希望可以找到一個突破點，否則只會是一個死局，我相信很多市民也不願意看到。
Hence President given the above we hope that there can be a breakthrough; otherwise we will end up in a hopeless situation . I believe this is not something the public wish to see
因此，我認同 政府當局引用《議事規則》第544條，動議把《條例草案》的二讀辯論中止待續，並把《條例草案》交付人力事務委員會處理。
Hence I agree with the Governments approach to invoke the power of Rule 544 of the Rules of Procedure to move a motion to adjourn the Second Reading debate of the Bill and refer it to the Panel on Manpower for scrutiny
主席，我明白這未必是最理想的做法，因為立法工作有很多仔細審議的過程，而且《條例草案》是一項很重要的法案。
President I understand that this may not be the most ideal approach because legislative work involves detailed scrutiny of a bill and the Bill is an important one
然而，現時立法會的運作已經遭到癱瘓，不能正常運作，大家也在尋求不同的解決方法，我覺得最重要的是捉緊時間，讓這項討論多年的《條例草案》可以讓香港很多懷孕婦女或未來打算準備生育小朋友的家庭也可以受惠。
But now the Legislative Council is paralysed and cannot resume its normal operation . We are finding different ways to solve this problem . I hold that the most important thing is to grasp the time and let the Bill which has been discussed for years benefit pregnant women or families with a child - bearing plan
我們可以在事務委員會討論《條例草案》時提出意見，在恢復二讀時也可以提出不同的修正案，所以還有很多空間及方法，可以保障議員的發言權。
We can voice our views on the Bill when the Panel on Manpower scrutinizes it; and we can also propose different amendments when the Bill resumes its Second Reading debate . So there is still a lot of room and means to protect Members right to speak
我想說明一下，導致立法會現時這個局面的正是反對派的朋友。
I wish to point out that the culprit that has dragged the Legislative Council into the present deadlock is the opposition camp . The House Committee has become inoperable
我記得朱凱廸議員在2017年拖延高鐵"一地兩檢"的時候曾提出一項議案，要求把《2017年銀行業條例草案》繞過內會，提前在大會審議及立即要求三讀。
I remember Mr CHU Hoi - dick also moved a motion in 2017 to bypass the scrutiny of the Banking Amendment Bill 2017 in the House Committee and to immediately advance its scrutiny and Third Reading in that Council meeting in order to stall the debate on the co - location proposal of the High Speed Rail
增加4個星期產假對她們來說十分重要，特別是年青家庭，除了結婚之外，生兒育女相信是人生其中一個重要階段。
The four additional weeks of maternity leave are very important to them . It is particularly the case for young couples . Having children I believe is one of the important stages in their lives apart from getting married
