今屆會期開始時，我亦很樂意聽到新特首及政務司司長不斷對我們說，很希望修補行政立法關係。
At the beginning of this legislative session I was happy that the new Chief Executive and the Chief Secretary for Administration told us time and again that they were eager to mend the relationship between the executive authorities and the legislature
其實，要修補行政立法關係，便要先了解行政立法關係惡劣的原因。
To mend the executive - legislature relationship one must first find out the reasons for the bad relationship in the first place
為何這個問題不能解決？
Why does this problem remain unresolved?
我很高興聽到政務司司長及特首不斷重申，表示今屆政府其中一個主要處理的問題，就是改善行政立法關係。
I am glad to hear the Chief Secretary and the Chief Executive reiterating repeatedly that one major problem to be handled by the incumbent Government is to mend the executive - legislature relationship
局長是新一屆政府的其中一位代表，擔任一個非常重要的職位，我希望你明白，要改善行政立法關係，一定不能只說，一定要有實質行動，以及在商議議程的時候，要多些與議員溝通，解釋為何政府有任何改動，或為何他們認為某項目較急切、另一項目可以暫緩處理等。
The Secretary is one of the representatives of the incumbent Government and he holds a very important position . I hope he will understand that to improve the executive - legislature relationship one must not just talk but also take practical actions . When discussing the agenda he must communicate more with Members explaining to them why the Government needs to make certain changes or why it thinks a certain item needs to be given priority over another
政府要透過打擊短期的投機活動，來遏止外來需求，以及減低投資需要，亦是為了穩定物業市場。
The Government had to suppress non - local demands reduce investment needs as well as stabilize the property market by way of combatting short - term speculation activities
為此當局先後推出額外印花稅、雙倍印花稅及買家印花稅。
To this end it had introduced at different times the Special Stamp Duty the Doubled Ad Valorem Stamp Duty and the Buyers Stamp Duty
在2016年4月起，住宅市場再度大幅反彈，尤其是中小型單位的市場。
Since April 2016 signs of exuberance in the residential property market have re - emerged particularly in the market of small to medium flats
政府表示，若不及時推出措施，住宅物業價格處於持續升幅的風險越來越大，最終會帶來非常沉重的調整代價，危害本港整體宏觀經濟及金融體系穩定。
According to the Government if timely measures were not implemented there was an increasing risk that residential property prices would continue to rise eventually precipitating a very costly adjustment and endangering the overall stability of the macroeconomic and financial system in Hong Kong
這是很嚴重的，按政府的說法，有關情況會"危害本港整體宏觀經濟及金融體系穩定"，所以有必要推出新一輪的需求管理措施，以期為住宅物業市場降溫。
The consequence would be very serious as in the words of the Government it would endanger the overall stability of the macroeconomic and financial system in Hong Kong . Hence it was necessary to launch a new round of demand - side management measure in the hope of cooling down the residential property market
政府把問題說得如此嚴重和迫切，因此應"急市民所急"、"急香港經濟所急"、為保護香港金融體系穩定而要推出"加辣"措施，有甚麼比我剛才所說的那些考慮因素更重要呢？
Since the Government has depicted the problem to be so serious and urgent it should in order to address the publics pressing concerns as well as the pressing concerns of the local economy introduce the enhanced curb measure to protect the stability of Hong Kongs financial system . What is more important than the above mentioned factors for consideration?
在法案委員會上，無論是出席的政府官員或部分建制派議員，除了地產界的代表之外，均希望可以盡早通過《條例草案》，以便過分熾熱的住宅市場可以盡快降溫。
At the meetings of the Bills Committee public officers and some pro - establishment Members expressed the wish for an expeditious passage of the Bill so as to cool down the overheated residential property market
政府說這是為了保護香港整體宏觀經濟及金融體系的穩定。
The Government said that the purpose was to protect the stability of Hong Kongs overall macroeconomic and financial system
政府官員更直言，新措施實施以來，已經有大筆稅款存在律師樓一段時間，希望可以盡快通過《條例草案》，令政府可以盡快收取稅款。
Public officers have also admitted that since the implementation of the new measure a large sum of stamp duty collected has been deposited in law firms . It is hoped that after the passage of the Bill the Government can collect the money as soon as possible
政府徵收了稅款，又未能正式入帳，我相信政府亦希望盡快解決這問題，以便將稅款作其他用途。
Now that the Government has levied the stamp duty but the money cannot be credited to its account I think the Government also wishes to resolve this problem as soon as possible so that the money can be at its own disposal
這些錢不是政府的，是廣大市民的。
The money does not belong to the Government but to the people
這些錢可作十分重要的用途，例如施政報告中提出了多項政策和新項目，範圍遍及教育、醫療，甚或是發展香港金融市場等，這些項目都很需要資源，需要款項，為何政府不善用這筆公帑，反而聯同建制派議員反口覆舌，將所有事情的緩急次序顛倒？
It can be spent in many important ways such as implementing the new policies and initiatives mentioned in the Policy Address in areas such as education health care or even the development of Hong Kongs financial market . All these initiatives are in need of resources and money . Why does the Government not make good use of this sum of public money?
政府在11月時說《條例草案》很重要，因為可以控制樓市，處理宏觀經濟、金融體系等，這些重要考量是否如今全部拋諸腦後？
In November the Government said that the Bill was very important because it could keep the property market in check and address the problems concerning our macro economy and financial system . Has it forgotten all these important factors for consideration?
就客觀環境、客觀因素而言，香港仍然是全球最昂貴的城市，樓價仍然很高，升幅仍然很大，銀行利率仍然偏低。
In view of the objective environment and objective factors Hong Kong is still the most expensive city in the world property prices are still sky - high and have the potential to rise even further and interest rates are still ultra - low
客觀因素沒有改變，泡沫風險可說越來越高。
While the objective factors remain the same the risk of a bubble continues to heighten
英國脫歐對英國、以至歐洲的整體金融體制和經濟發展均存在重大風險。
The risk factor also includes the impacts of Brexit on the financial system and economic development of the United Kingdom and even the entire Europe
究竟西班牙會如何處理加泰隆尼亞的獨立索求，亦為歐洲的金融經濟體系帶來頗大風險。
How Spain handles Catalonias demand for independence will also pose a great risk to the European financial and economic system
政府須說明編排議程緩急先後次序的理據，才會令人信服，而不是政府說了算，可任意改動議程，而不必向公眾、議會、議員解釋。
To convince us the Government must explain the reasons for setting the priority of agenda items . The Government cannot assume that it has the final say and can rearrange the order of agenda items at will without explaining to the public this Council and Members
我不是要政府只向民主派議員解釋，政府也應向建制派議員解說，因為大家都有權知道箇中原因。
I am not asking the Government to explain to the democratic Members alone . It should also explain to the pro - establishment Members because everyone has the right to know the rationale behind
他說如今所謂的"拉布"問題十分嚴重，我會認為大家都想好好處理議會的 問題，想解決所謂的"拉布"問題，但空談是沒用的。
He said the so - called problem of filibustering was now very serious . I think everyone wishes to address the problems of this Council properly and resolve the so - called problem of filibustering but empty talks are to no avail
在這些骨節眼上，只會令行政立法關係惡化。
At this critical point it will only aggravate the already strained executive - legislature relationship
民主派議員更不明白，他們甚至會十分憤怒，為甚麼政府要將其聲稱很重要的政策或法案全部抽起。
The democratic Members do not understand and they are even very angry wondering why the Government would withdraw a policy or a Bill that it has once claimed to be very important
其實，香港的客觀因素沒有改變，泡沫風險仍然很高。
As a matter of fact the objective factors in Hong Kong have not changed and the risk of property bubble is still high
"加辣"措施實施不足一年，而這些措施是政府特意針對中小型單位市場的熾熱情況而設，局長應該很明白。
The enhanced curb measure has been implemented for less than a year and the measure was especially formulated by the Government to curb the overheated market of small to medium flats . The Secretary should be well aware of that
石議員剛才提到，這些措施只會害了香港樓市，令泡沫風險更高。
Mr SHEK just mentioned that these measures were detrimental to Hong Kongs property market and would increase the risk of property bubble
對此，我當然不能完全同意，但石議員有他的觀點，我亦尊重他的看法。
Although I do not totally agree with him but Mr SHEK does have his points and I respect them
如果政府能坦白地解釋原因，即使是基於政治考慮，假如能開誠布公，我相信部分民主派議員仍會願意聆聽，願意嘗試從政府的角度理解此事。
If the Government can be honest and explain the reasons even if it is based on political considerations as long as the Government can tell us honestly I believe many democratic Members are still willing to listen and try to understand from the perspective of the Government
否則，行政、立法關係只會更形惡化，立法會議程面對的問題也不會得到解決。
Otherwise the executive - legislature relationship will only continue to deteriorate and the problems concerning the agenda of the Council meeting will not be resolved
主席，首先我要感謝留守議事堂的議員的支持，尤其是在審議政府的休會待續議案時展現出"是其是、非其非"，務實為民、為港的承擔。
Chairman first of all I would like to thank Members who have remained in this Chamber for their support . In particular they have when considering the adjournment motion of the Government demonstrated a spirit of calling a spade a spade and an undertaking of serving the people and Hong Kong with pragmatism
就議員的發言，我不會"拉布"。
Regarding Members remarks I will not filibuster
我會聚焦於3點，作一個總結的回應。
I will focus on three points and give a concluding response
第一，政府對立法會以至議員的尊重。
First the Governments respect for the Legislative Council and Members
按照立法會《議事規則》，政府可以無需作事前預告而動議全體委員會現即休會待續議案。
In accordance with the Rules of Procedure of the Legislative Council the Government may move without notice that further proceedings of the committee be now adjourned
然而，為了表達對議會及議員的尊重，行政長官於10月17日作出預告，以行動展現政府開誠布公的處事態度。
However in order to show respect for this Council and Members the Chief Executive gave notice on 17 October an action which well reflects the Governments sincerity and frankness
政府的善意和尊重被扭曲，令人感到失望。
It is disappointing that the Governments good intention and respect have been distorted
新住宅印花稅在去年宣布後已即時生效；因此，稍為押後《條例草案》的審議工作，對《條例草案》和新住宅印花稅的效力並無實質影響。
As the New Residential Stamp Duty NRSD has come into operation immediately after its announcement last year a slight delay in the scrutiny of the Bill will not have material effect on the effectiveness of the Bill and NRSD
第三，"一地兩檢"方案得到立法會支持，確實有其必要、需要及迫切性。
Third the Legislative Councils endorsement of the co - location proposal is essential necessary and urgent
政府提出休會待續議案，目的是確保2018年第三季廣深港高速鐵路香港段開通時能夠實施"一地兩檢"通關安排。
The Government moved an adjournment motion to ensure that the co - location arrangement can be implemented upon commissioning of the Hong Kong Section of the Guangzhou - Shenzhen - Hong Kong Express Rail Link XRL in the third quarter of 2018
從程序規劃， 以至所需時間均有必要優先處理，確保有關籌備工作能依時完成"三步走"，包括香港自行立法所需的必要程序。
It is necessary to accord priority to this matter in terms of procedural planning and the time required so as to ensure that the preparatory work for the Three - step Process can be completed as scheduled including the necessary procedures for the enactment of legislation in Hong Kong
調動議程確實有其迫切的需要。
Indeed there is an urgent need to rearrange the order of agenda items
廣深港高鐵香港段不僅是一條鐵路，能為市民大眾提供方便、快捷及高效的跨境運輸，更是聯通國家高速鐵路網絡以至連接世界的陸上高速幹道。
XRL is not only a railway that provides the general public with convenient fast and highly efficient cross - boundary transport it is also connected to the high - speed rail network of the country and the worlds high - speed trunk roads
長遠而言，它亦是香港經濟持續發展，保持香港競爭力的載體，為香港市民以至年輕的一代帶來機遇。
In the long run it will also be a carrier for sustaining our economic development maintaining our competitive edge as well as creating opportunities for Hong Kong people and the younger generation
政府深信在西九龍站實施"一地兩檢"是務實和必須的方案，並期望屆時可以得到議會及社會的支持，讓香港連繫更遠，成就更多可能。
The Government is convinced that the implementation of the co - location arrangement at the West Kowloon Station is a pragmatic and necessary proposal and it is hoped that it will have the support of the Legislative Council and the community so that Hong Kong will be connected to faraway places and positioned to make more achievements
主席，我謹此陳辭，懇請各位議員支持全體委員會現即休會待續議案。
With these remarks I implore Members to support the motion that further proceedings of the committee be now adjourned
在我就這項全體委員會休會待續議案提出待決議題之前，我想提醒委員，根據《議事規則》第404條，議案如獲通過，全體委員會即須回復為立法會，隨而處理下一事項；議案如被否決，全體委員會的程序即須繼續進行。
Before I put the question to you the motion for adjournment of proceedings of the committee I would like to remind Members that under Rule 404 of the Rules of Procedure if the motion is agreed to the Council shall resume and shall proceed to the next item of business; but if the motion is negatived the committee shall continue its proceedings
我現在向各位提出的待決議題是：全體委員會現即休會待續。
I now put the question to you and that is That further proceedings of the committee be now adjourned
主席，我動議若稍後就"加強區域合作，共建粵港澳大灣區"所提出的議案或修正案再進行點名表決，表決須在鐘聲響起1分鐘後進行。
President I move that in the event of further divisions being claimed in respect of the motion on Strengthening regional collaboration and jointly building the Guangdong - Hong Kong - Macao Bay Area or any amendments thereto this Council do proceed to each of such divisions immediately after the division bell has been rung for one minute
我命令若稍後就"加強區域合作，共建粵港澳大灣區"所提出的議案或修正案再進行點名表決，表決須在鐘聲響起1分鐘後進行。
I order that in the event of further divisions being claimed in respect of the motion on Strengthening regional collaboration and jointly building the Guangdong - Hong Kong - Macao Bay Area or any amendments thereto this Council do proceed to each of such divisions immediately after the division bell has been rung for one minute
議員已獲通知，由於盧偉國議員的修正案獲得通過，莫乃光議員、陳沛然議員及胡志偉議員已撤回他們的修正案。
Members have already been informed as Ir Dr LO Wai - kwoks amendment has been passed Mr Charles Peter MOK Dr Pierre CHAN and Mr WU Chi - wai have withdrawn their amendments
主席，我動議若稍後就"發展基層醫療服務"所提出的議案或修正案再進行點名表決，表決須在鐘聲響起1分鐘後進行。
President I move that in the event of further divisions being claimed in respect of the motion on Developing primary healthcare services or any amendments thereto this Council do proceed to each of such divisions immediately after the division bell has been rung for one minute
我命令若稍後就"發展基層醫療服務"所提出的議案或修正案再進行點名表決，表決須在鐘聲響起1分鐘後進行。
I order that in the event of further divisions being claimed in respect of the motion on Developing primary healthcare services or any amendments thereto this Council do proceed to each of such divisions immediately after the division bell has been rung for one minute
代理主席，很多謝林健鋒議員今天提出一個這麼重要的議案，讓議員可就大灣區這個重要課題展開討論，亦多謝另外14位議員提出修正案，令討論內容變得更豐富。
Deputy President I am very grateful to Mr Jeffrey LAM for proposing such an important motion today . Members are thus able to discuss this important subject of Bay Area development . Also I would like to thank the other 14 Members for their amendments which have all enriched the discussion greatly
大灣區包括香港、澳門兩個特別行政區和區內9個城市，分別為：廣州、深圳、珠海、佛山、惠州、東莞、中山、江門，以及肇慶。
The Bay Area comprises two Special Administrative Regions―Hong Kong and Macao―and nine cities namely Guangzhou Shenzhen Zhuhai Foshan Huizhou Dongguan Zhongshan Jiangmen and Zhaoqing
面積方面約為56,000平方公里，是香港面積的五六十倍；人口超過6,000萬，接近7,000萬，是香港人口的六七倍。
Measuring 56 000 sq km or so the Bay Area is 50 to 60 times the size of Hong Kong . Its population is six to seven times that of Hong Kong ie . exceeding 60 million and approaching 70 million
整個大灣區的經濟 總量達15,000億美元，佔國家經濟總量的12%。
The economic output of the entire Bay Area stands at US1.5 trillion accounting for 12 % of the gross economic output of the country
從種種數字可見，大灣區的發展潛力相當龐大。
As evidenced by all these figures the growth potentials of the Bay Area is simply enormous
除了具備發展國際級灣區經濟的條件外，大灣區更在"一國兩制"下同時擁有香港及澳門兩個國際化城市，以及發展迅速和市場龐大的內地城市群。
Besides being well - equipped to develop a world - class bay area economy the Bay Area comprises the two international cities of Hong Kong and Macao under one country two systems and also a fast growing Mainland city cluster with huge market potentials
對香港而言，在"一國兩制"下，我們享有獨特的雙重優勢。
For Hong Kong one country two systems allows us to enjoy a unique double advantage
大灣區內的城市有着不同的優勢，可以互補。
This can promote Hong Kongs economic diversification . Bay Area cities all have their respective advantages and this can enable them to complement one another
產業方面，既有香港這個國際金融、貿易和航運中心，也有匯聚多間內地創新科技龍頭企業的深圳，更有廣州、珠海、佛山等正在向先進製造業轉型的城市。
Speaking of industries we see that the Bay Area comprises Hong Kong a financial trade and shipping centre of the world; Shenzhen the home to many leading IT enterprises in the Mainland; and also others cities like Guangzhou Zhuhai and Foshan which are all transforming themselves into advanced manufacturing economies
大灣區內的城市文化相近、語言相通，相互認同感比較強。
As a result of cultural affinity and a common language there is a stronger sense of common identity in Bay Area cities
特別值得注意的是，在近年來，粵港澳合作不斷加強，在基礎設施、貿易投資、金融服務、旅遊發展、生態環保、社會服務等各個領域的合作，均取得顯著的成效，進一步穩固合作基礎。
And in fact we must note in particular that the cooperation among Guangdong Hong Kong and Macao has kept growing stronger in recent years . Marked results have been achieved in many areas of cooperation such as infrastructure facilities trade and investment financial services tourism development environmental protection and social services . The basis of cooperation has turned ever stronger
大灣區同時是航空和海運的樞紐，交通運輸網絡及跨境基礎建設覆蓋全面。
As an aviation and shipping hub the Bay Area is equipped with well - developed transport networks and cross - boundary infrastructure facilities
區內已形成聯通全國的高速鐵路網絡，再加上廣深港高速鐵路香港段、港珠澳大橋和蓮塘/香園圍口岸即將開通，各大灣區城市之間的聯繫將越趨便捷。
A high - speed railway network connecting to all parts of the country has already taken shape in the area and this together with the upcoming commissioning of the Hong Kong Section of the Guangzhou - Shenzhen - Hong Kong Express Rail Link XRL the Hong Kong - Zhuhai - Macao Bridge and the LiantangHeung Yuen Wai Boundary Control Point will make inter - city travel within the Bay Area much faster and more and more convenient
大灣區是國家的重大發展戰略。
The Bay Area project is a key component of our national development strategy
在十九大報告中，習近平主席明確提出"要支持香港、澳門融入國家發展大局，以粵港澳大灣區建設、粵港澳合作、泛珠三角區域合作等為重點，全面推進內地與香港、澳門互利合作，制定完善便利香港、澳門居民在內地發展的政策措施"。
The report which President XI Jinping delivered at the 19 National Congress of the Chinese Communist Party makes these objectives very clear to assist Hong Kong and Macao in fitting into the countrys overall scheme of development; to make all - out efforts to foster Mainland - Hong Kong - Macao cooperation and their common benefits mainly through Bay Area development Guangdong - Hong Kong - Macao cooperation and regional cooperation in the Pan - Pearl River Delta; and to formulate and improve policies and measures on facilitating the development of Hong Kong and Macao residents in the Mainland
大灣區建設就是要實行這幾項重要策略。
The Bay Area project is precisely meant to achieve these key objectives
去年7月1日，在習近平主席的見證下，國家發展和改革委員會與粵港澳三地政府簽署了《深化粵港澳合作推進大灣區建設框架協議》，為大灣區建設訂下合作目標和原則。
On 1 July last year under the witness of President XI Jinping the National Development and Reform Commission NDRC and the governments of Guangdong Hong Kong and Macao signed the Framework Agreement on Deepening Guangdong - Hong Kong - Macao Cooperation in the Development of the Bay Area which lays down the objectives and principles of cooperation for Bay Area development
其後，特區政府一直按照"一國兩制"的原則，與廣東省政府和澳門特區政府緊密合作，積極配合國家發改委推進《粵港澳大灣區城市群發展規劃》 。
The SAR Government has since been working closely with the Guangdong Provincial Government and the Macao SAR Government based on the principle of one country two systems so as to dovetail with NDRCs Development Plan for a City Cluster in the Guangdong - Hong Kong - Macao Bay Area
在參與《規劃》編製的過程中，特區政府就《規劃》徵詢了業界及相關委員會的意見，並已向國家發改委作出全面反映。
In the course of participating in formulating the Development Plan the SAR Government consulted different sectors and relevant committees and their views have been fully reflected to NDRC
國家即將頒布《規劃》，特區政府在推進大灣區建設方面，有三大重點工作，並已就此與廣東省政府達成共識。
The State will soon announce the Development Plan . The SAR Government thinks that it should undertake three major tasks in the development of the Bay Area and it has reached consensus with the Guangdong Provincial Government on these tasks
第一，建設大灣區成為"國際科技創新中心"。
First Hong Kong shall participate in developing the Bay Area into an IT hub of the world
在創科領域上，大灣區的資源和優勢突出。
Regarding IT development the Bay Area possesses huge resources and an obvious advantage
香港擁有多間世界級的大學、雄厚的科研實力、健全的司法和知識產權保護制度等。
Hong Kong possesses several world - class universities strong technological research capability a sound judicial system and a robust intellectual property protection regime
這些優勢源於香港國際化的地位，可以匯聚國內以至全球的創科資源。
All these advantages owe themselves to Hong Kongs cosmopolitan nature which can pool IT resources from the Mainland and around the world
香港高度國際化的營商環境，結合內地的產業鏈，一方面可將國際創科企業引進大灣區，另一方面，可幫助國內創科企業"走出去"，將大灣區建設成為"國際科技創新中心"。
Hong Kongs highly cosmopolitan business environment together with the industrial chain in the Mainland can bring international IT enterprises into the Bay Area on the one hand and help Mainland IT enterprises go global on the other thus turning the Bay Area into an IT hub of the world
第二項重點工作，是便利香港的優勢產業落戶大灣區。
The second major task is to make it easier for those Hong Kong industries enjoying clear advantages to establish a presence in the Bay Area
香港的優勢產業落戶大灣區後，既可利用大灣區的豐富資源解決香港缺乏土地和人力資源等問題，同時，也亦能夠為內地開拓新的產業，以及提升專業服務水平。
After establishing a presence in the Bay Area these industries can draw on the rich resources over there to resolve the land and manpower problems they must otherwise face in Hong Kong . At the same time they can develop new industries for the Mainland and enhance the standards of professional services there
廣東省對這些產業有市場需求，雙方可互補不足。
There is a great market demand for these industries in Guangdong so they can play a complementary role here
如能借助大灣區建設的機會，透過政策創新和突破，一方面，廣東省的居民能獲得更優質的服務，為內地開拓新的產業和提升專業服務水平；另一方面，香港的自身優勢產業亦可拓闊發展空間。
If Hong Kong can introduce policy innovation and breakthrough it will be able to grasp the opportunities arising from Bay Area development . That way we can develop new industries in the Mainland upgrade the professional services over there and enable Guangdong residents to have better services . In addition those Hong Kong industries enjoying clear advantages may have greater room for development
第三項重點工作，是透過政策創新和突破，加強大灣區內城市互聯互通。
The third major task is the introduction of policy innovation and breakthrough to strengthen inter - city connectivity within the Bay Area
大灣區內有兩種制度和3個獨立關稅區。
There are two systems and three separate customs territories in the Bay Area
雖然大灣區內基本上已經實現貿易自由化，但無論是在居民、貨物、資金和信息的流通方面，仍存在不少限制。
Free trade is basically practised in the Bay Area now but the flows of people goods capitals and information still face many restrictions
即使在日常生活方面，香港居民在內地學習、居住、就業等方面的待遇，仍與當地人有所不同，對在內地生活的港人構成不便，亦令在內地發展業務的香港企業較難吸引香港專才到大灣區工作。
Even in their daily lives those Hong Kong people living in the Mainland are still treated differently from the locals in many ways such as education housing and employment . This causes inconvenience to Hong Kong people and also makes it more difficult for Hong Kong enterprises operating in the Mainland to induce Hong Kong professional talents to work in the Bay Area . We will grasp this opportunity of Bay Area development
我們會把握今次大灣區建設的機遇，突破舊有框框，加強大灣區內城市互聯互通，促進生產要素便捷流通，使香港與大灣區內其他城市的人員、貨物、資金、信息的流通更為暢通。
We will shatter the constraints of old so as to boost inter - city connectivity within the Bay Area and promote the quick and smooth flows of production factors between Hong Kong and other cities in the Bay Area
這方面的工作，不但可以促進香港優勢產業在大灣區的發展，亦會令大灣區成為優質生活圈，拓闊香港居民的生活空間，使大灣區成為香港廣闊的腹地。
This will not only foster the development of Hong Kong industries in the Bay Area but will also turn the Bay Area into a quality living circle and a vast hinterland of Hong Kong thus broadening Hong Kong peoples living space
事實上，國務院港澳事務辦公室分別在去年8月及12月公布了兩批便利港澳居民在內地發展的政策措施。
Actually in August and December last year the Hong Kong and Macao Affairs Office of the State Council already announced two packages of policy and measures to facilitate the development of Hong Kong and Macao residents in the Mainland
已公布的便利措施涵蓋範圍廣闊，包括教育、就業、創業和日常生活等方面，讓港人在內地各個領域享 有與內地居民同等的待遇。
These measures grant national treatment to Hong Kong people in a wide range of areas including education employment business start - up and daily living
為了吸引香港的青年、專業人士到大灣區發展，廣東省會盡快落實這些便利措施。
To draw Hong Kong young people and professionals to the Bay Area for career and business development Guangdong Province will put these measures into practice as soon as possible
特區政府在推進大灣區建設的框架下，會繼續為港人爭取在大灣區就業、創業、營商等各方面的便利。
And within the framework of Bay Area development the SAR Government will continue to strive for more convenience for Hong Kong people in various areas including employment and business start - up and operation
