因此，主席，民建聯反對這次彈劾議案。
Therefore President DAB opposes todays impeachment motion
代理主席，根據上月底瑞士洛桑國際管理發展學院發表的《2017年世界競爭力年報》，香港連續第二年獲評選為全球最具 競爭力的經濟體。
Deputy President Hong Kong has been crowned the worlds most competitive economy for the second consecutive year in the World Competitiveness Yearbook 2017 released at the end of last month by the International Institute for Management Development in Lausanne Switzerland
香港作為亞洲區內卓越的國際金融中心，必須保持競爭力，但同時亦有必要履行身為國際社會一員的責任。
As a premier international financial centre in Asia Hong Kong must maintain its competitiveness but at the same time it is also imperative for it to fulfil its obligations as a member of the international community . This time in introducing the Inland Revenue Amendment No
我支持通過《條例草案》。
I support the passage of the Bill
《條例草案》的精神是，在2017年7月開始，所有財務機構都有責任識別75個稅務管轄區的稅務居民、收集他們所持帳戶的資料，以及於明年5月開始向稅務局提交收集到的資料。
The spirit of the Bill is that all financial institutions FIs will be obliged to identify tax residents of 75 jurisdictions and collect information on accounts held by them with effect from July 2017 and to submit the information collected to the Inland Revenue Department with effect from May next year
代理主席，《條例草案》的要求，令財務機構由原來只須收集日本和英國兩個地區稅務居民的資料，大幅增加至75個地區居民的資料，增幅高達37倍。
Deputy President under the Bill the number of jurisdictions in respect of which FIs are required to collect tax residents information increases substantially to 75 from the existing two namely Japan and the United Kingdom representing a 37 - fold increase
對財務機構來說，這是一項沉重的任務。
This is an onerous task for FIs
我作為金融界在立法會的代表，在法案委員會的審議階段，曾要求政府考慮將73個新增的申報稅務管轄區，分階段加入名單，以盡量減輕財務機構的負擔。
As a representative of the financial sector in the Legislative Council I have at the Bills Committee stage requested the Government to consider including the 73 newly added reportable jurisdictions in the list by phases so as to minimize the burden on FIs
然而，現實情況是，由於經合組織和歐盟把明年劃定為第一輪申報的死線，未能遵從要求的地方將會被列入"不合作稅務管轄區"名單，因此，延後執行的空間的確很小。
But in reality since OECD and the European Union have designated next year 2018 as the deadline for the first round of reporting and any jurisdiction failing to comply with this requirement will be listed as a non - cooperative tax jurisdiction there is indeed very little room for deferred implementation
但是，我估計當財務機構實際遵守有關法例要求時，將會在人力和系統方面遇到不少困難。
That said I surmise that FIs will encounter quite a number of manpower and systemic difficulties in actually observing the relevant statutory requirements
我希望政府可以在符合有關法例要求的情況下，賦予財務機構一定彈性。
I hope that the Government can give FIs certain flexibility as long as the relevant statutory requirements are met
雖然剛才梁繼昌議員已嘗試詳細解釋《條例草案》的影響範圍，但我仍然擔心，執行經修訂的《稅務條例》時，會導致財務機構與客戶之間出現矛盾。
Although Mr Kenneth LEUNG tried to explain the implications of the Bill in detail earlier on I am still concerned that the implementation of the amended Inland Revenue Ordinance IRO will lead to conflicts between FIs and their clients
正如我剛才提及，本港的財務機構原先只須額外收集日本和英國居民的帳戶資料；可以說，香港絕大部分市民，根本沒有意識到有帳戶資料會自動交予其他政府的稅局。
As I mentioned just now currently Hong Kong FIs are only required to additionally collect information on accounts held by residents of Japan and the United Kingdom; one may say that the vast majority of Hong Kong people are completely unaware of the automatic exchange of account information with the tax authorities of other governments
不過，在《條例草案》獲通過後，財務機構便會陸續通知客戶，而客戶在不太清楚來龍去脈的情況下，很容易會產生不必要的誤解。
Nonetheless after the passage of the Bill FIs will progressively advise their clients of this arrangement and unnecessary misunderstanding may arise easily if their clients are not quite clear about the ins and outs of it
所以，我今天再次向政府重申，應撥出一定資源為經修訂的《稅務條例》進行宣傳，盡量減低財務機構與客戶之間不必要的矛盾。
So today I must reiterate that the Government should allocate a certain amount of resources to publicize the amended IRO so as to minimize any unnecessary conflicts between FIs and their clients
最後，我希望政府今後引入國際稅務或相關標準時，好好在各項考慮因素之間取得平衡，而非簡單地以"合規思維"行事。
Lastly I do hope that when the Government is to introduce international tax or related standards in future it will strike a proper balance between different considerations instead of simply acting with a compliance mentality
主席，今天這項由反對派28名議員聯合動議的議案，源於"調查梁振英先生與澳洲企業UGL Limited所訂協議的事宜專責委員會"的工作，而專責委員會的成立，是反對派議員要求立法會就UGL事件做一次全身"X光"檢查，試圖找出任何可以攻擊或跟進的弱點。
President the origin of this motion initiated jointly by 28 opposition Members today stemmed from the work of the Select Committee to Inquire into Matters about the Agreement between Mr LEUNG Chun - ying and the Australian firm UGL Limited and the establishment of the Select Committee is a request put forward by opposition Members to conduct a thorough X - ray examination by the Legislative Council in an attempt to find out the Archilles heel that can possibly be attacked or followed up
主席，既然整件事由UGL事件而起，我們便要讓大家明白事件的始末。
President since the incident arises from the UGL incident we have to brief Members on the circumstances leading to it
剛才有議員同事提及，今次事件是因為梁振英先生與UGL在2011年12月簽訂離職協議，收取了400萬英鎊的協議費用。
Just now some Members mentioned that the cause of the incident is the signing of a resignation agreement between Mr LEUNG Chun - ying and UGL in December 2011 whereby the former received a payment of £4 million
這事早在2014年由澳洲傳媒披露，之後兩年多，反對派一直就此對梁振英先生窮追猛打，不遺餘力地向各地稅局和執法機關報案。
The incident was revealed by the Australian media in as early as 2014 and then in the following two years or so the opposition camp has been chasing after Mr LEUNG Chun - ying vigorously and spared no effort in filing reports to tax authorities and law enforcement agencies in different parts of the world
過去兩年多，反對派在欠缺具體證據的情況下，仍不斷全方位從不同角度調查UGL事件。
Over the past two years or so in the absence of concrete evidence the opposition camp has kept investigating the UGL incident on all fronts from different perspectives
他們唯一可以提出的藉口是："清白者為何要怕人調查？
The only excuse that they can be offer is Why should the innocent fear an investigation?
最近，反對派同事終於在立法會《議事規則》內找到空間。
Recently fellow colleagues of the opposition camp finally identified a gap in the Rules of Procedure RoP of the Legislative Council
原來立法會《議事規則》容許只要有20名議員以呈請方式要求立法會主席將UGL事件交付專責委員會處理，即使其他議員不支持，仍要成立專責委員會調查。
They learnt that according to RoP if not less than 20 Members requested the President of the Legislative Council by way of petition to refer the UGL incident to a select committee then even if other Members do not support a select committee will still be formed
這空間讓反對派同事開闢一個新平台去延續UGL事件。
Such a gap has provided a new platform for opposition Members to continue to pursue the UGL incident
就今天這項議案所涉及的專責委員會而言，如果反對派同事真的重視程序公義，他們亦必須重視專責委員會的公信力，絕不能有雙重標準。
Regarding the Select Committee involved in todays motion if colleagues from the opposition camp do attach importance to procedural justice they must also value the credibility of the Select Committee and should not have double standard
毋庸置疑，立法會是一個民選的獨立機構，我們的同事、專責委員會的委員梁繼昌議員退席與否，應該由他本人與專責委員會決定。
Undoubtedly given that the Legislative Council is an independent elected institution whether or not our colleague Mr Kenneth LEUNG a member of the Select Committee should withdraw his membership shall be decided by him and the Select Committee
我們沒有機制，不像法庭般有方法強制他退出專責委員會。
Unlike the court no mechanism has been put in place to compel him to withdraw from the Select Committee
然而，我懇請反對派同事明白，正如湯家驊資深大律師所說，"假若審訊者與訴訟雙方之其中一方有特別關係，審訊者理應自動退席，以示公正。
Nevertheless I hope opposition Members would understand just as Senior Counsel Ronny TONG has said If an investigator has special connection with either party of the proceeding he or she should withdraw from discussion automatically for the sake of justice
"一般而言，如果審訊者與訴訟雙方其中一方有密切、良好的關係，會令人產生審訊者難以秉持公正的印象，所以必須退席。
Generally speaking if an investigator has a close and good relationship with either party of the proceeding it will give people an impression that it might be difficult for the investigator to uphold justice he or she must therefore withdraw from discussion
就梁振英先生和梁繼昌先生的關係而言，兩人似乎積怨甚深，互相敵視已達到互相興訟的程度，所以客觀的判斷是梁繼昌議員難以摒棄個人恩怨而公正地調查UGL事件。
As regards the relationship between Mr LEUNG Chun - ying and Mr Kenneth LEUNG it seems that they have longstanding grudges and their animosity is so intense that a legal proceeding is initiated . Hence an objective judgment is that it would be difficult for Mr Kenneth LEUNG to set aside his personal grudges for a fair inquiry of the UGL incident
即使他真的如他所言，可以在陽光下怎樣怎樣，調查報告亦可能被質疑偏袒控方而令報告的公信力大大削弱。
Even if he can do so and so under the sun as he claimed there may be doubts on whether the inquiry may be partial to the prosecutors thereby seriously undermining its credibility
這樣做又何苦？
What is the point of doing this?
但是，反對派同事對這點視若無睹，偏袒自己人，完全置專責委員會的公信力於不顧，箇中原因是否立場已定，調查程序只是走過場而已？
However colleagues of the opposition camp simply turned a blind eye to this situation and stand by his side ignoring completely the credibility of the Select Committee . Is it because they have already taken side and the investigation is nothing but a gesture?
本屆政府任期只剩下不到1個月，反對派同事仍嘗試啟動彈劾程序，我認為這是反對派對梁振英政治狙擊的最後一擊。
The remaining tenure of the current - term Government is just less than a month yet colleagues of the opposition camp still try to initiate the impeachment procedure . I would consider this their final shot of a political attack against LEUNG Chun - ying
周浩鼎議員在這事件上確有處理不當之處，但他已就此道歉並辭去專責委員會副主 席的職務。
Mr Holden CHOW has undoubtedly handled the matter improperly but he has already apologized and resigned from the position of Deputy Chairman of the Select Committee
他既負起應有的責任，相關的紛爭亦應結束。
As he has assumed his due responsibilities the relevant disputes should come to an end as well
因此，我反對今天彈劾特首和譴責周浩鼎議員這兩項議案。
Hence I oppose the two motions of today to impeach the Chief Executive and censure Mr Holden CHOW . President I so submit
我想反問大家，梁振英有甚麼值得香港人尊重？
In response I would like to ask in what areas LEUNG Chun - ying are worthy of Hong Kong peoples respect
他濫權瀆職、收受利益而不申報、更玩弄語言"偽術"、介入立法會對他的法定調查、欺騙市民、有權用盡，這些值得市民尊重嗎？
He abused his power committed dereliction of duty received benefits without making declaration practised the art of doublespeak interfere with the Legislative Councils statutory inquiry on him deceived the public and exploited his power to the fullest . Are these qualities worthy of respect by the public?
值得我叫他一聲特首嗎？
Does he deserve to be called Chief Executive?
所以，我們要依賴立法會的權力，找出這位特首的過失，還公眾一個真相。
Thus we have to rely on the power of the Legislative Council to find out the faults of this Chief Executive so as to tell the public the truth
原因是梁振英赤裸裸地介入立法會的調查，介入立法會的事務，他想控制立法會，以獲得自己想要的結果。
The reason is that LEUNG Chun - ying has nakedly interfered with the inquiry and the affairs of the Legislative Council . He wanted to control the Legislative Council to get the result he wanted ie
如果特首可以用這種方法介入立法會的事務，介入立法會一項法定的調查，立法會便不會再有公信力，市民以後再不會相信立法會。
If the Chief Executive can interfere with the affairs and the statutory inquiry of the Legislative Council in such a way the Legislative Council will lose its credibility and the public will no longer trust the Legislative Council
今次梁振英和周浩鼎議員的行為，完全破壞了石禮謙議員剛才說的立法會長期建立的良好運作及程序。
The acts of LEUNG Chun - ying and Mr Holden CHOW have completely ruined the good practices and procedures established by the Legislative Council over a long period as Mr Abraham SHEK mentioned earlier
立法會的優良傳統，已經毀諸一旦。
The fine traditions of the Legislative Council have been destroyed completely
這些很明顯是濫權瀆職的行為。
Obviously their acts constitute abuse of power and dereliction of duty
梁振英這麼想介入立法會，這麼想議員替他說話，倒不如自己經直選進入立法會，而不要用這種方式來介入立法會。
If LEUNG Chun - ying was so keen to interfere with the affairs of the Legislative Council and was so eager to get Members to speak for him it would be better for him to become a Member of the Legislative Council through direct election instead of interfering with the affairs of the Legislative Council by such means
在UGL事件上，法律學者、稅務專家及市民大眾都作出很多批評。
In fact many legal scholars taxation experts and members of the public have made many criticisms regarding the UGL incident
有很多問題梁振英仍未向公眾解釋，包括他收受UGL的巨額報酬，究竟當時戴德梁行的董事局有否批准？
There are many questions which LEUNG Chun - ying has not answered to the public . These questions include has the Board of Directors of DTZ Holdings plc given approval at the time for him to receive a huge reward from UGL?
但是，我們調查的範圍，原來梁振英要偷偷摸摸介入。
However it turned out that LEUNG Chun - ying wanted to interfere with the scope of our inquiry secretly
他說他不是偷偷摸摸，被人"踢爆"後便開誠布公，突然公開表示他覺得調查範圍應該怎樣。
He said that he was not acting secretly but he only became frank and honest after his clandestine acts were uncovered . All of a sudden he openly expressed his views on the scope of inquiry
公眾看得很清楚，究竟這是開誠布公，還是偷偷摸摸？
The public can see very clearly whether he has been frank and honest or whether he has acted secretly
又說其他議員收黑錢、又說其他議員不申報利益。
They also said that some Members accepted dirty money and some Members did not declare interests
即使有議員真的漏了申報或做錯，是否等於梁振英做對了嗎？
Even if some Members have omitted to declare interests or made some mistakes does it mean that LEUNG Chun - ying has acted properly?
他們又說梁繼昌議員一定不可以留在專責委員會，要他辭職。
The pro - establishment Members said that Mr Kenneth LEUNG should definitely not stay in the Select Committee and they demanded for his resignation
如果這些理據成立，梁繼昌議員真的有利益衝突。
If these arguments stand it would mean that Mr Kenneth LEUNG really has conflict of interests
今天有多少位建制派議員站起來為梁振英護航？
How many Members have stood up to shield LEUNG Chun - ying today?
用"拉布"嘗試令彈劾議案無法討論，我覺得這種護航的行為是奴才的行為，是另一種為梁振英的利益做事的行為。
In my view to stop the discussion on the motion of impeachment by filibustering is an act of lackeys to protect their master and it is just another act to work to the advantage of LEUNG Chun - ying
梁振英曾經說，泛民主派的議員濫用立法會調查的權力，在現行機制下，由20位議員站起來提交一份呈請書，便可成立專責委員會。
LEUNG Chun - ying has said that the pan - democratic Members have abused the power of investigation of the Legislative Council because under the existing mechanism when 20 Members stand up to submit a petition a select committee can be formed
正因為我們有這種權力，才可以制衡政府官員濫權瀆職的行為，以及政府施政的失誤。
Since we have this power we can exercise check and balance against any abuse of power and dereliction of duty on the part of public officials and blunders in administration on the part of the Government
如果民主派的議員行使這些權力也屬濫用的話，梁振英及建制派的議員可否回答我，立法會是否根本不需要這種權力，因為任何人調查特首或官員都是濫用權力？
If the exercise of this power by the pro - democracy Members is regarded as an abuse of power can LEUNG Chun - ying and the pro - establishment Members tell me whether the Legislative Council no longer needs this power because anyone who tries to investigate LEUNG Chun - ying or other public officials will be accused of abusing power?
你說這是一種表達政治姿態的信息也好，我們就是要告訴公眾，當"689"或未來任何政府官員濫權瀆職、欺騙市民，甚至嘗試介入立法會事務，企圖奪去立法會監察政府的權力時，我們會發揮憲制角色、用《基本法》賦予的權力，追究到底。
You may say that is a political gesture but we have to tell the public that when 689 or any future public official abuses his or her power and commits dereliction of duty deceives the people and even interferes with the affairs of the Legislative Council and attempts to take away the power of the Legislative Council in monitoring the Government we will perform our constitutional role and exercise the power given by the Basic Law to pursue the matter to the very end
這正是市民對我們的期望，亦是市民授予我們在立法會的權力。
That is what the public has expected us to do and the public has given us this power to exercise in the Legislative Council
我不知建制派最後可以護航到甚麼地步，可以瘋狂"拉布"、"流會"到甚麼程度來保護梁振英及周浩鼎議員，最後是否成功也好，歷史都會記下這位特首在香港歷史上留下的巨大污點。
I do not know how far pro - establishment Members will go in shielding LEUNG Chun - ying whether they will crazily filibuster and abort meetings to protect LEUNG Chun - ying and Mr Holden CHOW . No matter whether they will succeed or not history will record that this Chief Executive has left a big blemish in the history of Hong Kong
香港人不會就此作罷，為了維持本港廉潔、程序公義的核心價值，我們一定會追究到底。
Hong Kong people will not let go of the matter; we will definitely pursue the matter to the very end to uphold the core values of probity and due process in Hong Kong
代理主席，我動議通過以我名義提出的議案，議案內容已載列於議程內。
Deputy President I move that the motion under my name as printed on the Agenda be passed
為了使小組委員會有更多時間進行審議工作，我謹代表小組委員會，動議將上述公告的審議期限延展至2017年7月5日。
To allow more time for the Subcommittee to conduct the scrutiny work I move on behalf of the Subcommittee that the period for scrutinizing the aforesaid notice be extended to 5 July 2017
我現在向各位提出的待決議題是：陳振英議員動議的議案，予以通過。
I now put the question to you and that is That the motion moved by Mr CHAN Chun - ying be passed
法案委員會召開了兩次會議，並邀請了持份者表達意見。
The Bills Committee has held two meetings and invited stakeholders to express their opinions
我要特別感謝法案委員會主席梁繼昌議員及其他委員的努力，令審議工作順利完成。
I would like to extend my special thanks to Mr Kenneth LEUNG Chairman of the Bills Committee and the other members of the Bills Committee for their efforts which have contributed to the smooth completion of the scrutiny of the Bill
香港作為國際金融中心，一直致力提高稅務透明度和打擊跨境逃稅活動，並為實施經濟合作與發展組織就稅務事宜自動交換財務帳戶資料所訂立的新國際標準作好準備。
As an international financial centre Hong Kong is always committed to enhancing tax transparency and combating cross - border tax evasion and has been preparing the ground for implementing the new international standard for AEOI set by the Organisation for Economic Co - operation and Development OECD
與此同時，國際社會一直監察各稅務管轄區實施自動交換資料安排的進度，並倡議建立廣闊的自動交換資料網絡，以締造公平的競爭環境。
Meanwhile the international community has been monitoring jurisdictions progress in the implementation of AEOI and putting emphasis on a wide network of AEOI to ensure a level playing field
為配合這工作，經合組織和歐洲聯盟已分別開始制訂"不合作稅務管轄區"名單。
To support this both OECD and the European Union EU have kicked off their respective exercises to draw up lists of non - cooperative tax jurisdictions
列入名單與否的其中一項準則，是實施自動交換資料安排的進度和網絡的涵蓋範圍，當中包括要求所交換的資料最少須涵蓋2017年下半年起的財務帳戶資料。
One of the listing criteria is the progress and the network of implementing AEOI . This includes the requirement that the information exchanged must at least comprise the financial account information covering the period starting from the second half of 2017
正如我在動議《條例草案》二讀時表示，我們必須因應國際間新近的發展，加快擴展自動交換資料網絡的步伐，並盡快採取行動，備存由2017年下半年起的財務帳戶資料，準備與其他稅務管轄區交換。
As I said when moving the Second Reading of the Bill we must in response to the latest international developments quicken the pace of expanding our AEOI network and take expeditious action to preserve financial account information from the second half of 2017 for exchanges with other jurisdictions
有關修訂可確保香港的自動交換資料安排得以有效實施之餘，亦不會對財務機構帶來過度的合規負擔。
The relevant amendments can ensure the effective implementation of AEOI in Hong Kong without placing an undue compliance burden on financial institutions FIs
為落實自動交換資料的安排，《稅務條例》現時已載有一份香港的"申報稅務管轄區"名單，但名單上只有兩個稅務管轄區，即日本和英國。
For the implementation of AEOI the Inland Revenue Ordinance currently contains a list of reportable jurisdictions for Hong Kong but there are only two jurisdictions on the list namely Japan and the United Kingdom
《條例草案》連同我將動議的全體委員會審議階段修正案，建議由今年7月1日起把這名單的"申報稅務管轄區"增加至75個，當中包括11個已確認的自動交換資料夥伴及64個準自動交換資料夥伴。
The Bill together with the Committee stage amendments to be moved by me proposes to increase the number of reportable jurisdictions on the list to 75 including 11 confirmed AEOI partners and 64 prospective AEOI partners with effect from 1 July this year
這64個準夥伴包括以下3類： a 有關稅務管轄區已向經合組織表示有意與香港訂定自動交換資料安排或由經合組織建議的稅務管轄區； b 香港稅務協定夥伴當中已承諾實施自動交換資料安排的稅務管轄區；及 c 歐盟所有成員國。
The 64 prospective AEOI partners are from the following three categories a jurisdictions which have expressed an interest to OECD in conducting AEOI with Hong Kong or jurisdictions suggested by OECD; b Hong Kongs tax treaty partners which have committed to AEOI; and c all Member States of EU
政府日後對申報稅務管轄區名單作出修訂時，須提交立法會按"先訂立後審議"的程序審議。
Any amendment by the Government to the list of reportable jurisdictions in future is subject to negative vetting by the Legislative Council
法案委員會就修訂建議作出了深入和詳細的討論，我希望在此回應委員和持份者較為關注的3個事項。
The Bills Committee has discussed the proposed amendments in depth and in detail . Here I wish to respond to three major concerns raised by members of the Bills Committee and stakeholders
第一，申報規定。
The first concern is about the reporting requirements
有持份者建議容許財務機構可選擇提交2017年全年的資料，而非只是2017年下半年的資料，以及在稅務局與其他稅務管轄區交換資料前，由財務機構保存有關資料。
Some stakeholders have suggested that FIs should be allowed an option to submit full - year data for 2017 instead of data for the second half of 2017 only and that the relevant data should be kept by FIs before the Inland Revenue Department IRD exchanges information with other jurisdictions
我們認為，《條例草案》擬議的申報規定應與香港對經合組織所作的承諾一致。
In our opinion the reporting requirements proposed in the Bill should be in line with Hong Kongs commitment made to OECD
財務機構只提交2017年下半年的資料，可避免客戶產生不必要的誤會或查詢，而且提交半年資料只屬一次過特殊安排。
Requiring FIs to only submit data for the second half of 2017 can avoid undue misunderstanding or queries by their clients . In any case the submission of half - year data is just a special one - off arrangement
為確保資料的完整及安全，財務機構應每年向稅務局提交有關資料。
To ensure the integrity and security of data FIs should submit the relevant data to IRD annually
第二，關於私隱保障及資料保密。
The second concern is about the protection of privacy and confidentiality of information
我們明白，法案委員會及代表團體就確保納稅人的私隱和所交換資料的保密事宜的關注。
We understand that the Bills Committee and deputations have expressed concern over the protection of taxpayers privacy and confidentiality of the information exchanged
政府高度重視這基本要求。
The Government attaches great importance to this fundamental requirement
我希望指出，《條例草案》不會改變現行在《稅務條例》下適用於自動交換資料安排的私隱及資料保障要求。
I would like to point out that the Bill does not alter the existing privacy and data protection requirements applicable to AEOI under the Inland Revenue Ordinance
政府一直十分重視保障納稅人的資料，而香港只會與已簽訂特定交換資料協定，並符合經合組織就保障資料私隱和保密的標準及相關要求的稅務管轄區，進行自動交換資料。
The Government always sets great store by the protection of taxpayers information . Hong Kong will only conduct AEOI with jurisdictions which have signed dedicated exchange agreements with it and have fulfilled OECDs standard and the relevant safeguards for protecting data privacy and confidentiality
我亦希望強調，就一般香港市民而言，如果他不是香港以外任何地區的稅務居民，香港的財務機構不會在這計劃下將他們的資料向稅務局申報。
I also wish to emphasize that as far as ordinary Hong Kong citizens are concerned if they are not tax residents of any jurisdictions outside Hong Kong Hong Kong FIs will not report their information to IRD under this regime
第三，有關支援及宣傳。
The third concern is about support and publicity
我們明白財務機構因履行新責任所帶來的額外工作。
We appreciate the extra work for FIs arising from the new obligations
我現在向各位提出的待決議題是：《2017年稅務條例草案》，予以二讀。
I now put the question to you and that is That the Inland Revenue Amendment No . 3 Bill 2017 be read the Second time
代理主席，我謹動議二讀《2017年醫生註冊條例草案》。
Deputy President I move the Second Reading of the Medical Registration Amendment Bill 2017
政府其後成立三方平台，邀請醫生、代表病人權益和消費者權益人士，以及立法會議員，就有關醫委會的組成和運作的修例建議提出意見，盡量尋求共識。
Subsequently the Government set up a tripartite platform and invited doctors representatives of patients interests and consumers interests and Members of the Legislative Council to provide views on the composition and operation of MCHK and forge consensus on the proposed legislative amendments as far as practicable
三方平台一共舉行了4次會議，先分析及了解醫委會現時的運作，繼而參考包括英國、澳洲和新加坡等海外經驗，最後討論修訂《醫生註冊條例》的建議，以改善醫委會的投訴調查和紀律研訊機制，以及其組成情況。
The tripartite platform has held a total of four meetings . It first had an analysis and understanding of the current operation of MCHK and then drew reference on overseas experiences including that of the United Kingdom Australia and Singapore; and finally it discussed the proposed amendments to the Ordinance to improve MCHKs complaint investigation and disciplinary inquiry mechanism as well as its composition
代理主席，"行公義、守專業、護社群"是醫委會的使命。
Deputy President ensuring justice maintaining professionalism and protecting the public are the missions of MCHK
近年來，醫委會的公信力和運作效率備受社會大眾關注。
The credibility and operational efficiency of MCHK has become a prime public concern in recent years
由於個案不斷積壓，目前有待處理的個案多達900宗。
As the number of complaint cases is on the increase there is a backlog of more than 900 cases
一宗個案由收到投訴直至進行紀律研訊平均需時6年。
It takes about six years on average to handle a complaint case from receipt to disciplinary inquiry
