香港工會聯合會早前向政府建議成立跨政策局和跨界別的深化東盟關係行動小組，為加入RCEP和深化東盟關係作出跨界別的行動目標和計劃。
Previously The Hong Kong Federation of Trade Unions has suggested the Government setting up a cross - bureau and cross - sectoral action group to propose cross - sectoral operational targets and plans for Hong Kong to join RCEP and deepen its relations with the Association of Southeast Asian Nations ASEAN . Meanwhile the Government should use the new central business district of Hong Kong ie
主席，香港不是實行社會主義制度，而是奉行資本主義，多年來也做得相當出色。
President Hong Kong practices the capitalist system instead of the socialist system and the system has been working very well over the years
我們又以低稅率為吸引點，讓海內、海外商家來到香港都有很好的賺錢機遇，可以賺多多但付少少。
In addition we use low tax rate as our selling point providing lucrative money - making opportunities for domestic and overseas businessmen to earn more but pay less in Hong Kong
對於這次修訂法例，將公眾假期和勞工假期混為一體制，我也表示歡迎。
I welcome this amendment bill which will subject general holidays and labour holidays under the same regime
目前建議循序漸進地每兩年增加一天，由12天調升至17天，這亦是無可厚非。
It is also justifiable to increase the number of holidays from 12 days to 17 days with one additional day every two years in a gradual and orderly manner as presently proposed
我也同時看到實際上世界不斷在變，而且不是圍繞着香港改變。
Furthermore I have noticed that the world is actually changing all the time and the changes do not revolve around Hong Kong
香港應該知道要圍繞着甚麼去轉變，便是我們的祖國。
We should find out what Hong Kong is revolving around and it is our Motherland
"這是非常好的條文，訂明我們是人民民主專政而不是極權，是以大多數人的利益及意願來執政，執政為民。
This provision is very well written stating that we are not under a totalitarian regime but peoples democratic dictatorship which governs with the interests and will of the majority public as well as for the people
"社會主義制度是中華人民共和國的根本制度。
The socialist system is the basic system of the Peoples Republic of China
禁止任何組織或者個人破壞社會主義制度。
Disruption of the socialist system by any organization or individual is prohibited
"在這個大前提總綱下，亦考慮到一個歷史問題，所以根據這項《憲法》締造了一個香港特區出來，是"一國兩制"。
Under this general premise and considering a historical issue HKSAR governed under one country two systems was created in accordance with the Constitution
無論如何香港都在不斷進步，不是原地踏步，而且要跟隨中國的步伐。
In any case Hong Kong is making progress rather than remaining where we are and has to keep up with the pace of China
現時內地的步伐是甚麼呢？
What is the pace of the Mainland at present?
吃喝玩樂，甚麼也有，可到的空間和欣賞的景色較歐美還好，這便是中國的標準。
It offers dining wining gaming and entertainment whatever you name it and surpasses Europe and the United States in terms of space and scenery . This is the standard of China
如果你問我關於這5天 假期，我認為是微不足道，應該越早實行越好，無須每兩年增加一天。
If you ask me about these five days of holidays I think they are insignificant and should be granted as early as possible and there is no need to increase an additional day every two years
我剛才說無可厚非，可以順序漸進；但如果你問我是否同意在條例實施後立即拉平，取消"一假兩制"，我亦完全支持。
Just now I said that the increase is justifiable and can be done in a gradual and orderly manner but if you ask me if I agree to align the holidays immediately after the enactment of the legislation and abolish one holiday two systems I fully support it as well
因為內地同胞的產假也有90多天，還有哺乳假期，即餵奶也有假期。
Because the Mainland compatriots do not only have more than 90 days of maternity leave they are also entitled to breastfeeding leave that is holidays for breastfeeding
我在內地聘請了一名年青貌美的夥計，嫁人後便生孩子，而且現在還是"三孩政策"，我要付double開支給她。
I hired a beautiful young woman in the Mainland and she subsequently got married and has children . Under the three - child policy of China she costs me double
今天工聯會為"打工一族"爭取假期，我認為有勇氣和值得讚賞，應該要妥善處理不公平、不平衡之處。
Today FTU is fighting for holidays for the wage earners which I think is courageous and worthy of appreciation because unfairness and imbalance should be properly dealt with
然而，在成功爭取之後，不要只懂"攞着數"，而是應該令香港在服務業、工業及創造業再下一番苦工。
However after getting the holidays do not just pocket gains but work harder for the services industrial and creative industries of Hong Kong
林文瀚法官非常資深，並且向來享有崇高聲望。
The Honourable Mr Justice Johnson LAM is a very experienced judge who has always enjoyed an eminent reputation
他在香港土生土長，從香港大學這個法律搖籃一直成長，在私人執業時亦有良好表現，然後加入司法系統，由高等法院法官一直拾級而上，在法律的造詣及成就非常顯赫。
Born and raised in Hong Kong he started developing as a legal professional in the University of Hong Kong which is known for nurturing legal talents . He also did well in private practice before joining the judiciary system . After taking the first step as a High Court Judge he then moved up the judicial ladder with proven extraordinary legal skills and achievements
我對他這次被委任為終審法院常任法官，表示贊同及讚賞。
I concur with and appreciate the appointment of Mr Justice LAM as a permanent judge of the Court of Final Appeal CFA
目前，由首席法官率領3名常任法官，一共4人，再另加1名非常任法官才能夠組成5人開庭。
At present CFA is headed by the Chief Justice and has three permanent judges . As CFA sits as a bench of five the four of them sit together with one non - permanent judge to constitute the full Court
但是，現時的現象是，我們根據《香港終審法院條例》自我規限，實施"4+1"的安排。
Yet at present by virtue of the Hong Kong Court of Final Appeal Ordinance CFA binds itself with the 41 arrangement
因此，較早前在謝偉俊議員提出一項質詢時，我已經表達我的論述。
Therefore I have already presented my argument when Mr Paul TSE raised a question earlier
我亦知道，司長曾表示目前的情況是可行的，而且操作良好，所以在這情況下，沒有必要作出修改。
Also to my understanding the Chief Secretary has indicated that no changes are needed given that the current system works well and the operation is sound
試問有哪個司法管轄區在其憲制架構下，容許外地法官審理終審層面的案件？
May I ask which jurisdiction allows overseas judges to hear cases before the highest courts under its constitutional structure?
這的確是一個較為特殊的情況。
Our case is really an extraordinary one
我認為這項安排在憲制上存在某程度的瑕疵。
In my opinion there are certain flaws in this arrangement in the constitutional context
因此，我們特區應在這方面具有前瞻性。
Therefore the SAR Government should adopt a forward - looking attitude in this matter
此外，有鑒於近年的世界局勢，東西方的政治衝突較多，我們在這方面宜未雨而綢繆，毋臨渴而掘井。
Moreover given the world situation and increased political conflicts between the East and the West in recent years it is better for us to save up for the rainy days than to dig a well in great thirst
只要法庭的法官數量充足，便會符合維持香港長期穩定繁榮的論調及原則。
Securing a sufficient number of judges in CFA is in line with the notion and principle of maintaining Hong Kongs long - term stability and prosperity
獲批貸款的人士來自不同行業，包括運輸、物流、零售、建築、飲食、旅遊及酒店等。
The borrowers of the approved loans came from different industries including the transportation logistics retail construction catering tourism and hotel sectors
銀行接獲的申請中，約 21%為重複申請或申請人撤回的個案。
Of all the applications received by the banks around 21 % were either duplicated applications or subsequently withdrawn by applicants
被銀行拒絕的申請佔整體申請約3%，拒絕貸款的主要原因為申請人不符合計劃的申請資格，例如申請人無法提供過往的就業紀錄和無法證明已失去經常收入。
Around 3 % of the applications were rejected by the banks mainly due to non - compliance with the schemes eligibility criteria such as failure to provide proofs of past employment or cessation of main recurrent incomes
餘下正在處理的個案中，大部分申請有待申請人向銀行提供所需的文件和資料，例如身份證明、住址證明和失業證明等，以核實申請人是否合乎申請資格。
Most of the remaining applications being processed by the banks are pending applicants submission of the required documents and information such as identity proof address proof and unemployment proof for the purpose of verifying their eligibility
就已獲批的申請而言，銀行平均需約17個工作天處理申請，而按證保險公司一般可在收到銀行提交申請後3個工作天內批出貸款。
Insofar as the approved applications are concerned the banks took an average of 17 working days to process an application whereas HKMCI normally approved a loan within three working days upon the receipt of an application from the banks
由於申請數目眾多，而且部分申請重複，亦有相當部分申請表格沒有填妥或未附有所需相關證明文件，銀行需要時間審核申請並與申請人逐一聯絡和跟進。
Given the considerable number of applications and that some of the applications were duplicated while a considerable portion of the application forms were either incomplete or without proper enclosure of the requisite supporting documents it takes time for the banks to vet the applications as well as to make contact and follow up with each and every applicant
按證保險公司與參與計劃的銀行保持密切聯繫，商討計劃運作的各項事宜，並適時提供指引。
HKMCI has been maintaining close communication with the participating banks to discuss various operational matters of the scheme and to provide timely guidance
按證保險公司與銀行已經落實了多項措施，優化審批程序和為文件要求提供更清晰的指引，包括彈性處理住址及失業證明文件的要求；接受申請人在失業期間曾從事非經常性收入的兼職或臨時工；為疫情初期已失業的申請人提供彈性，將失業前收入證明的指定期間從原本的2019年最後一季擴闊至2019年下半年之內的任何3個月等。
HKMCI and the banks have also implemented a number of measures to refine the vetting procedures and to provide clearer guidelines on documentation requirements . Such include the adoption of a more flexible approach to consider the documentary proof requirements in respect of residential address and unemployment; accepting applicants who took up part - time or temporary jobs with non - recurrent incomes during the unemployment period; and providing applicants who became unemployed at the early stage of the pandemic with flexibility by extending the income reference period from the last quarter of 2019 to any three months in the second half of 2019
銀行會繼續與申請人逐一聯絡和跟進申請個案，以期盡快完成審批貸款申請。
The banks will continue to contact each and every applicant and follow up on the applications with a view to completing expeditiously the processing of loan applications
本來政府派發5,000元消費券，大家也感到很開心，但由於申請過程繁複，要求市民做很多動作，致令大家申請時也不禁搖頭。
The Governments proposal of issuing consumption vouchers valued at 5,000 delighted the people at first but the complicated application process which requires the applicants to complete many steps has made us shake our heads
我很記得許局長曾經表示，這項計劃是要在短時間內幫助一些受疫情影響的失業人士渡過暫時的困境。
I clearly remember that Secretary Christopher HUI indicated that PLGS sought to help people who became unemployed because of the epidemic to tide over their interim difficulty within a short time
不過，主席，香港現時的失業率是6%，共有24萬人失業，但局長只收到46000份申請，並批出14000宗，換言之，成功申請的失業人士不足6%。
However President the current unemployment rate in Hong Kong is 6 % and there is a total of 240 000 unemployed persons but the Secretary has only received 46 000 applications and approved 14 000 of them . In other words the percentage of unemployed persons whose applications have been approved is less than 6 %
我想問局長會否重新檢視這項計劃，延長計劃的申請期，降低申請門檻及簡化申請手續，讓更多失業人士可以方便快捷地即時獲取計劃的貸款？
May I ask whether the Secretary will review PLGS; extend its application period; lower the application threshold and streamline its application procedures so that more unemployed persons can obtain loans conveniently and quickly?
主席，陳議員剛才的補充質詢也是我們一直以來所關注的，即推出這項計劃是否真的可以做到"及時雨"，我們希望在短時間內為市民提供適切的幫助。
President Mr CHANs supplementary question has been our concern all along ie . whether PLGS can really provide timely relief and appropriate assistance to the people within a short time
我有時候也會在網上的討論區觀察市民的反應，在此很感謝陳議員、陳振英議員、葛珮帆議員、陸議員、麥議員及潘兆平議員給予我們多方面關於市民的信息。
I sometimes obtain peoples feedback on online discussion forums . Let me express my gratitude to Mr CHAN Mr CHAN Chun - ying Ms Elizabeth QUAT Mr LUK Ms MAK and Mr POON Siu - ping for providing us with information about the public in many areas
我們現時接受銀行的內部紀錄作為住址證明，讓部分申請人無須額外提供住址證明。
We now accept internal records of banks as address proof to spare some applicants of the need to provide additional proof of residential address
另一項較為重要的措施，是關於失業證明。
Another rather important measure concerns unemployment proof
我們亦已放寬對失業證明文件的要求，容許以銀行月結單證明申請人的主要經常收入來源。
We have relaxed the requirement of documentary unemployment proof to allow the use of monthly bank statements as proof of the applicants main source of recurrent income
申請人只需提供相同帳戶最近兩個月的月結單，顯示失去主要經常收入，便無須另外提供失業證明。
The applicant needs only to provide monthly statements of the same account for the last two months to show the loss of the main source of income without the need to provide any other unemployment proof
局長在主體答覆中表示，共接獲46411宗申請，只有14233宗獲批。
The Secretary said in the main reply that among a total of 46 411 applications received only 14 233 have been approved
換言之，有32178宗未批，當中可能有部分申請重複或已撤回，甚至已被拒絕。
In other words 32 178 applications have not been approved including possibly duplicated withdrawn or even rejected applications
此外，局方提到銀行平均需要17個工作天處理申請，再加上按證保險公司需要3天處理，即平均需時20天。
Besides the Bureau mentioned that 17 working days were required to process an application on average and three more days are required by HKMCI which add up to an average processing time of 20 days
坊間一直批評審批過程緩慢，未能及早解決失業工友的燃眉之急，而過程緩慢令這些工友認為"兩頭不到岸"、心急如焚。
Some in the community have criticized the vetting and approval process as slow and cannot address the imminent needs of unemployed persons . The slow process has also caused these workers to fall between two stools and feel very anxious
我想再次問局長有否新措施，包括設定一個審批時限，加快審批程序和加強宣傳，讓工友可以早日獲得貸款呢？
May I ask the Secretary again whether any new measures will be put in place including setting a deadline for vetting and approval to speed up the process and stepping up publicity so that the workers can obtain the loans earlier?
主席，其實潘議員和陳議員剛才的質詢均有很多共通之處，他們都很關心從受眾的角度，如何能夠更大程度地從我們的計劃中得益。
President in fact the supplementary questions asked by Mr POON and Mr CHAN do have many points in common . The Members are very concerned about how the target recipients can benefit more from our scheme
在計劃進行初期，銀行也有進行抽樣調查，並發現有八成個案申請由於未填妥或未附有基本證明文件，例如香港身份證副本、住址證明或銀行月結單等，而未獲處理。
During the initial stage of implementation of PLGS the banks have conducted random checks and found that 80 % of the applications have not been processed because the forms were not properly completed or some basic documentary proof has not been provided eg . copies of Hong Kong Identity Cards address proof or monthly bank statements
銀行已就這方面積極處理，而在各方努力下，銀行表示自問題獲積極處理後，資料不齊備的個案已從申請總數的八成減至現時只有約四五成。
The banks have actively addressed this issue and under the joint efforts of different parties the banks indicated that the percentage of applications with insufficient information had dropped from 80 % to only 40 % - 50 % of the total number after vigorous efforts had been made
我們很歡迎這些會議，讓我們可以擴大接觸層面，針對不同行業介紹這項計劃。
We welcome these meetings which have enabled us to broaden our network of contact so that we can give briefings on PLGS targeted at different industries
主席，兩年以來，香港受到"黑暴"和疫情影響，經濟和市民就業方面均受到很大影響。
President over the past two years Hong Kong has been affected by black - clad violence and the epidemic which have dealt a serious blow to our economy and peoples employment
雖然近日失業率有下調跡象，但很多人仍然是開工不足。
Despite recent signs of a downward adjustment of the unemployment rate many people are still underemployed
我認為這是有需要的。
I think there is a need to do so
主席，正所謂"有借有還是上等人"，現時計劃下成功申請的人士在首12個月只需要還息，無須還本。
President as the Chinese saying goes People with integrity always repay their loans . At present successful applicants of PLGS are only required to pay interests without repaying the principal amounts of their loans for the first 12 months
我不想問如果申請人屆時無法還錢，政府會如何向他們追討，反而想問如果屆時香港經濟仍未全面復蘇，他們無法還款時，政府會如何繼續幫助他們呢？
I am not asking how the Government will recover the money from the applicants in case of default; instead may I ask how the Government will continue to help the applicants if the Hong Kong economy has not fully recovered and the applicants cannot repay their loans later on?
例如申請人在2020年失業，一般是提交之前3個月的收入證明，即是2019年最後一季，但現把時間擴闊至2019年下半年之內的任何3個月。
For example an applicant who became unemployed in 2020 is normally required to provide income proof for the three months before that ie . the last quarter of 2019 but the income reference period has now been extended to any three months in the second half of 2019
我們的下一步工作是如何可以進一步優化，而剛才多位議員提出的內容，我們也會討論，亦會聆聽有哪些方面可以多做工夫，我們都會積極考慮。
Our next step is to make further enhancement . We will discuss the content of Members earlier speeches and actively consider views on whether any further work can be done in specific areas
主席，財務委員會就百分百擔保個人特惠貸款計劃批出150億元，而局方的文件表示，有46000宗申請，即使全部批出，也只不過是40億元，在資源上是有空間可以作出調整的。
President the Finance Committee has approved a funding of 15 billion for PLGS and according to the paper provided by the Bureau there are 46 000 applications . Even if all applications are approved it will incur only 4 billion and there is still room for adjustment in terms of utilization of resources
坊間就政府審批需時的問題指出，現時存在很大的漏洞，便是政府沒有清楚說明，究竟對失業狀況的要求，是按申請計劃時計算，還是在發放貸款前仍然維持失業？
Regarding the time required for the Government to vet and approve applications some in the community have pointed out a very big loophole at present and that is the Government has not clearly specified the unemployment status Should the applicant be unemployed when the application is made or should he remain unemployed until the loan is granted?
既然這項計劃有調整的空間，我想問政府，現在是否適當的時間調整，把計劃放寬至涵蓋一些停工或開工不足的工友？
Since there is room for adjustments to PLGS may I ask the Government whether this is the right time to make adjustments to relax the eligibility criteria so as to cover workers who have been suspended from work or are underemployed?
主席，我先解答議員數方面的質詢。
President let me reply to the several aspects raised in the Members supplementary question
申請人需要提交的資料和證明是清晰的：第一，當然是失業聲明，這已包括在貸款申請表內，剛才我也特意download了某銀行的失業貸款計劃申請表，當中的確附有相關聲明。
The information and proof required to be submitted by the applicants are clear . Firstly it is certainly the statement of unemployment which has been included in the application form . I have deliberately downloaded a banks application form for an unemployment loan scheme and the statement is actually attached to it
第三，是失業和已經失去主要經常收入最少兩個月的證明，舉例來說，視乎申請人之前的受僱形式，他可以提供解僱信、獲支付遣散費，或是長期服務金的證明文件等。
Thirdly it is the proof of unemployment and loss of the main source of recurrent income for at least two months . For example depending on the nature of the applicants previous employment documentary proof such as dismissal letter payment of severance payment or long service payment etc . can be provided
正如我剛才所解釋，我十分樂意也十分歡迎不同界別的議員多與我們接觸，通過他們龐大的社會網絡，讓更多受眾了解我們這項計劃的內容，因為始終每宗個案的情況也不同。
As I have explained earlier I am very pleased and welcome more frequent contact with Members of different sectors . Through their extensive social networks more target recipients will be able to understand the content of PLGS . After all the circumstances of each case are different
我在網上的討論區也發現，很多人也有不同的問題。
I have noticed from the online discussion forums that people have raised different questions
我很難在此以一個銀行代表的身份解答所有不同個案的問題，但最低限度作為一個開始，我們有很多工作可以做，讓更多人了解我們的計劃內容。
It would be difficult for me to answer all the questions in the capacity of a bank representative here but as a start at least there is a lot of work we can do to enable more people to understand the content of PLGS
這方面涉及宣廣和介紹的工作，我們會繼續做，同時亦有賴多位議員繼續支持我們這方面的工作。
This involves efforts in publicity and briefing which we will continue to make . At the same time we must also rely on the continuous support of Members in this regard
其實，我們已經推出一系列優化措施，包括剛才我所介紹有關文件的要求及指引。
In fact we have introduced a series of enhancement measures including those relating to the requirements and guidelines on documentation as described by me earlier on
至於下一步可以優化些甚麼呢？
What is the next enhancement to be made?
在符合公帑的要求和整項計劃的精神下，我們可以考慮，也可以在會後繼續溝通，看看還可以多做些甚麼。
Any suggestion which complies with the requirements of using public funds and is in line with the spirit of the entire scheme can be considered . We can also continue with our discussion after the meeting to see what else can be done
陸頌雄議員剛才提到很多內地的例子，但內地現時最流行"9-9-6"。
Just now Mr LUK Chung - hung cited a number of Mainland examples but I would like to say that the 9 - 9 - 6 work culture is now very popular in the Mainland
成功企業會鼓勵員工"9-9-6"，即"早上9時上班，晚上9時下班，每周工作6天"，這就是現時內地成功企業提倡的做法。
Successful enterprises often encourage their employees to work 9 - 9 - 6 which means going to work at 9col00 am and leaving office at 9col00 pm for six days a week . This practice is currently promoted by successful enterprises in the Mainland
自由黨資深黨友何世柱先生建議分10年逐步增加假期，即每兩年增加一天，商界朋友對此基本上無甚異議，因為每兩年才增加一天假期，不算是big deal，沒有太大問題，可以慢慢適應。
A senior member of the Liberal Party Mr HO Sai - chu proposed to increase the number of holidays progressively over 10 years ie . increasing an additional day of holiday every two years . There is basically no objection from the business sector as it is not a big deal to increase an additional day of holiday every two years and businesses can gradually adapt to this change
每兩年增加一天假期本來不是大問題，但最大問題是現屆政府增設了許多勞工福利，加重商界成本。
Originally it is not a big deal to increase one additional day of holiday every two years . The biggest problem is that the current - term Government has introduced too many labour benefits which add cost pressure to the business sector
有些勞工界代表剛才表示增加一天假期沒甚麼big deal、不是大問題，但最大問題是增設了一連串勞工福利，例如男士侍產假在兩年前由3天增至5天，其後女士的產假又由10周增至14周。
Just now some labour representatives said that it was not a big deal to grant an additional day of holiday . Yet it is a big problem that a series of labour benefits have been provided . For example following the increase in paternity leave for men from 3 days to 5 days two years ago the maternity leave for women was subsequently increased from 10 weeks to 14 weeks
一下子推出這麼多勞工福利，商界能否承受？
When so many labour benefits are introduced all at once can the business sector bear with them?
假設一個家庭是一家四口，牽涉的人數便有120萬至130萬。
Assuming that each of such families has four family members then the number of people affected would be 1.2 million to 1.3 million
這樣會影響全港30多萬個家庭，他們大部分都有長者或小朋友需要照顧。
FDHs holiday entitlement will affect more than 300 000 local families most of which have elderly members or children to take care of
若把每月150元乘以12個月，外傭每年便可額外多獲1,800元。
If we multiply the monthly compensation of 150 by 12 months FDH will earn an additional 1,800 per year
其實，我不明白主席為何指我的修正案超出《條例草案》的範圍，我真的不明白。
In fact I do not understand why the President ruled my amendment as out of scope . I really do not understand
當然，政府有其見解，局長亦曾提及，如果豁除外傭可能違反《基本法》，出現違反人權的問題。
Of course the Government has its own view . As remarked by the Secretary previously the exclusion of FDHs may violate the Basic Law and human rights
在這種情況下，大家也看到很多企業現時仍在"捱世界"、"吃老本"，甚或已經"捱不住"。
Under such circumstances we can see that many enterprises are still having a hard time living off their past gains or have already collapsed
旅遊業便是一個好例子，有一年半的時間是零收入。
A good case in point is the tourism industry which has not had any income for one and a half years
當然，感謝特區政府提供一些 資助，令部分可以捱到今時今日仍未結業。
Of course thanks to the assistance from the SAR Government some operators in the industry are still hanging in there to this day and have not closed down
不過，實際的情況是，我們並不知道經濟情況會如何。
However the reality is that we do not know what the economic conditions will be like
我們最希望是可以通關，因為通關後便可恢復正常的經濟活動，而內地的一些自由行人士或外國旅客亦可以來港。
What we want most badly is reopening borders because after that normal economic activities can resume and Mainland visitors under the Individual Visit Scheme or foreign visitors may travel to Hong Kong
因此，我在修正案中建議延遲一年才落實這項法例，讓商界朋友可以喘息。
Therefore in my amendments I suggest that the implementation of the legislative amendments be deferred for one year in order to give the business sector a breathing space
我們實際上要捱至何時、守至何時？
Until when are we actually going to struggle and wait?
在這種情況下，我期望可以將這項法例的開始生效日期延遲一年，這理應不是很大問題。
Under such circumstances I hope that the commencement date of the Bill can be deferred for one year which should not be a very big problem
因此，我期望大家在了解香港現時真正的經濟環境及現實情況後，可以通過我的修正案，將這項法例延遲一年才落實。
Therefore I hope that Members will endorse my proposed amendments having understood the actual economic environment and conditions prevailing in Hong Kong so that the implementation of the Bill will be deferred for one year
議案最後一句提到"為香港的金融、經貿、航運、旅遊、創新科技、文化及專業服務業開拓新的發展空間。
The last sentence of the motion mentions open up new room for development for Hong Kongs financial trading shipping tourism innovation and technology cultural and professional services industries
可能需要配合第二、第三產業的發展，或與姚思榮議員代表的旅遊業界相配合。
There may be a need to tie in with the development of the secondary and tertiary industries or dovetail with the tourism industry represented by Mr YIU Si - wing
當然，香港的法律法規未必容許這樣做，但現時很多漁農界人士都希望別人認識相關行業。
Of course the laws and regulations in Hong Kong may not allow this but many people in the agriculture and fisheries industry do want others to know about the industry
例如，可否邀請梁志祥議員和黃定光議員登上漁船，參加體驗活動？
For example can we invite Mr LEUNG Che - cheung and Mr WONG Ting - kwong on board the fishing boats to join an experience activity?
老實說，很多市民都不知道中央政府如何與香港特區政府溝通，以及如何制訂綱要。
Frankly speaking many people do not know how the Central Government communicates with the HKSAR Government and how the Outline is formulated
