幸好主任裁判官強調，被捕人士有權保持緘默，他不回答，不為自己辯解，亦不能說他是自招嫌疑，最終亦批准被告的訟費申請。
Fortunately the Principal Magistrate stressed that the arrestee was entitled to remain silent and his refusal to give a reply or failure to defend himself did not lay himself open to suspicion . His application for the compensation of his legal costs was ultimately approved
由這些例子可以看到，律政司現時完全信任警察，或不敢不聽警察的話，已經失去自己的判斷能力。
We can see from such cases that the Department of Justice fully trusts the Police or dare not disobey them . It has lost its ability to make judgments on its own
由此可見，律政司就"反送中"運動向市民提出的檢控，很多時候也不看證據，只單純推測市民的動機便作出檢控，最終是失敗收場，浪費公帑，滋擾市民。
Concerning the anti - extradition to China movement it is clear that many prosecutions against members of the public were initiated by the Department of Justice with no regard to evidence but made simply out of speculation on their motives . As a result it often ended up being the losing party wasting public money and causing nuisances to members of the public
近月，亦有出現針對示威者但最終撤控的個案，不少個案都是證據不足，可見律政司當初提出訴訟時，未經深思熟慮，單純按照警察的意願便盲目檢控無辜的市民。
In recent months there were also cases that targeted protesters but were withdrawn in the end and many cases involved insufficient evidence . It is thus clear that when the Department of Justice institutes legal proceedings it fails to make thorough and meticulous consideration . It simply complies with the wishes of the Police and blindly initiates prosecutions against innocent people
如果律政司繼續以粗疏的態度胡亂提出檢控，刑事訴訟程序便會淪為警隊打壓異己的工具，刑事訴訟費用便會變成迫害異己的助燃劑。
If the Department of Justice continues to initiate prosecutions arbitrarily in a sloppy manner the mechanism for criminal proceedings will degenerate into a tool of the Police Force to suppress dissidents and the costs of criminal proceedings will become the fuel to persecute dissidents
律政司刑事訴訟工作的另一個重大問題，是僱用大量存有極大偏見的律師進行刑事檢控工作。
Another big problem with the criminal litigation work of the Department of Justice is the engagement of many lawyers with profound biases to undertake criminal litigation work
近日，一位負責跟進"反送中"案件的律師被揭發在自己的Facebook用惡毒、帶有歧視色彩的語言來侮辱政治異見分子，令全城譁然，但律政司繼續聘用這些律師負責刑事檢控。
Recently a lawyer responsible for a case related to anti - extradition to China was revealed to have used vicious and discriminatory language on her own Facebook page to humiliate political dissidents . A public outcry was triggered citywide . But the Department of Justice has continued to engage lawyers of this kind to undertake criminal proceedings
其後，這位律師被發現在香港大律師公會的網頁自稱是英國的事務律師，但英國發牌當局已經書面確認，這位政府律師並非英國的事務律師，並指已經致函要求該政府律師在香港大律師公會的網頁介紹中停止自稱為英國律師。
Later this lawyer was discovered to claim that she was a solicitor in the United Kingdom on the web page of the Hong Kong Bar Association . The Solicitors Regulation Authority of the United Kingdom how - ever confirmed in writing that this Government Counsel was not a solicitor in the United Kingdom and they had written to this Government Counsel to tell her that she should not claim to be a solicitor of the United Kingdom on the web page of the Hong Kong Bar Association
由此可見，律政司僱用一些支持警察、支持政府的律師，誠信蕩然無存，沒有核實其專業資格是否屬實，亦是疏忽職守。
It is thus clear that the Department of Justice engages certain pro - police and pro - government lawyers and its credibility has vanished . The failure to verify her professional qualifications also points to dereliction of duty on its part
我尚未說到鄭若驊本人的失職、失德的事件，但發言時間已超過14分鐘。
I have yet to comment on dereliction of duty and misconduct on the part of Teresa CHENG herself but my speaking time has exceeded 14 minutes
我希望香港市民看到，我們就預算案提出的所有削減政府相關部門開支的修正案都是有根有據，但未必能夠在席上向公眾或主席一一陳述。
I hope that Hong Kong people will see that we have proposed all our amendments to the Budget to cut the expenditure of the relevant government departments on a solid foundation but we may not be able to explain them one by one to the public or the Chairman in the Chamber
我希望未來無論哪位擔任主席，既然批准修正案，便應提供充足時間予提出修正案者在會上解釋修正案。
I hope that whoever serves as the President in the future should allow amendment proposers sufficient time to explain their amendments in the meeting as long as he has ruled such amendments admissible
主席，我發言反對由反對派提出的52項修正案。
Chairman I speak to oppose the 52 amendments proposed by the opposition
我認為這些修正案與過往財政預算案的修正案一樣，都是3個"不"字：一，不切實際；二，不利民生；三，不顧後果。
Similar to the proposed amendments to previous budgets I think these amendments can be summarized in three nos first no relevance to reality; second no benefit to peoples livelihoods; and third no regard for the consequences
因此，我必須反對。
I therefore must oppose them
我作為金融服務界的議員，想談談修正案編號38、41及42。
As a Member from the financial services sector I would like to talk about Amendment Nos . 38 41 and 42
這3項修正案分別要求削減財政司司長全年的薪金預算開支、財經事務及庫務局個人薪酬的全年薪金預算開支，以及財經事務及庫務局有關資助金下金融發展局的全年預算開支。
They seek to cut respectively the estimated full - year expenditures on the salary of the Financial Secretary the salaries under personal emoluments of the Financial Services and the Treasury Bureau and that on the Financial Services Development Council under the relevant subvention of the Financial Services and the Treasury Bureau
香港是一個國際大都會，我暫不說財政司司長及財經事務及庫務局一直以來為鞏固香港國際金融中心、貿易中心、全球離岸人民幣業務樞紐及國際資產管理中心等各方面作出的努力及取得的成果。
Hong Kong is an international metropolis . I will for the time being leave aside the efforts made and the results achieved by the Financial Secretary and the Financial Services and the Treasury Bureau in reinforcing the status of Hong Kong as an international financial centre trade centre global hub for offshore Renminbi business and centre for wealth management
單說去年，反修例風波重創香港的經濟，各行各業均面對極大的營運壓力，政府自去年8月起，先後宣布4輪"撐企業、保就業、紓民困"的措施，包括帶頭減收政府物業的租金及牌費；減免水費及津貼電費；寬減稅務及差餉；優化中小企業的資助計劃等，涉款250億元。
Last year alone the disturbances arising from the opposition to the proposed legislative amendments severely damaged the Hong Kong economy with various sectors and industries faced with immense operational pressure . The Government has since August last year announced four rounds of measures to support enterprises safeguard jobs and relieve peoples burden including spearheading in reducing rents for government properties reduction in various licence fees water charge waiver electricity charge subsidy tax and rates concessions and enhancing funding schemes for small and medium enterprises all of which involved a total expenditure of some 25 billion
其後，新型冠狀病毒肺炎疫情肆虐，政府又先後推出兩輪防疫抗疫基金，採取多項措施來支援社會各行各業，涉款亦過千億元。
Later given the havoc wreaked by COVID - 19 the Government has further rolled out two rounds of measures under the Anti - epidemic Fund that involve a total expenditure of over 100 billion to support various sectors and industries
或許政府在支援企業及紓解民困措施方面未必十全十美，但我認為政府能夠在這短時間內多次善用公共財政資源來穩定經濟，同時又維持香港公共財政的穩健，實屬不易，財政司司長和財經事務及庫務局更功不可沒。
The measures adopted by the Government to support enterprises and relieve peoples burden may not be impeccable but I think it is indeed not easy for the Government to make effective use of public financial resources to stabilize the economy multiple times within a short period while safeguarding the stability of the public finances of Hong Kong as well . Credit should be particularly given to the Financial Secretary and the Financial Services and the Treasury Bureau
反對派要求削減他們的預算開支，我認為實在有欠公允。
I think that the oppositions demand to cut their estimated expenditure is indeed unfair
退一步來說，從實際情形來看，如今中美貿易戰陰霾未除，再加上受反修例風波及新型冠狀病毒肺炎疫情的雙重打擊，香港的經濟發展正面臨內憂外患的嚴峻局面。
On second thoughts the actual situation is that uncertainties still exist in the trade war between China and the United States . This coupled with the double whammy of the disturbances arising from the opposition to the proposed legislative amendments and the outbreak of COVID - 19 has given rise to a dire situation in which Hong Kong faces external and domestic challenges in terms of economic development
我認為在這個時候更需要財政司司長和財經事務及庫務局統籌，帶頭制訂切實的政策，採取適當的措施來刺激經濟復蘇，保障市民的"飯碗"。
I think that at this juncture there is a greater need for the Financial Secretary and the Financial Services and the Treasury Bureau to coordinate and spearhead the formulation of practical policies and the adoption of appropriate measures to stimulate economic recovery and protect peoples rice bowls
如果此刻削減財政司司長和財經事務及庫務局的預算開支，我認為是赤裸裸地置香港經濟發展於不顧。
In my view if we cut the estimated expenditure of the Financial Secretary and the Financial Services and the Treasury Bureau at this moment we will be blatantly ignoring the economic development of Hong Kong
我相信凡是真心希望香港好的人也不會支持這些修正案。
I believe that anyone who truly wishes for a good Hong Kong will not support these amendments
接着，我想談修正案編號24及25。
Next I will talk about Amendment Nos . 24 and 25
兩項修正案分別要求削減立法會秘書處秘書長及法律顧問的薪金及現金津貼預算開支。
The two amendments seek to cut the estimated expenditure on the salaries and cash allowances of the Secretary General and the Legal Adviser of the Legislative Council Secretariat respectively
主席，我不但要反對這兩項無理的修正案，更認為反對派沒有資格提出這兩項修正案。
Chairman not only will I oppose these two unreasonable amendments but I also think that the opposition are not entitled to propose these two amendments
我已擔任立法會議員將近8年。
I have been serving as a Legislative Council Member for some eight years
一直以來，我看到立法會秘書處，當然包括秘書長和法律顧問，均盡心盡力工作，全力協助各黨派議員做好議會工作。
All along I see that the Legislative Council Secretariat including the Secretary General and the Legal Adviser are committed to their work and spare no effort in assisting Members from various political parties with their legislative work
相反，反對派議員卻趨向偏激暴力，只要他們對政策稍為不滿，輕則透過製造流會、提出中止待續及休會待續議案等方式來"拉布"，重則粗暴衝擊議會，影響議會的正常運作。
On the contrary opposition Members are getting radical and violent . As long as they are dissatisfied with any policy regardless of the extent they will at best cause the meeting to adjourn with the lack of a quorum or filibuster by way of proposing a motion to adjourn a debate or the Council . At worst they will violently storm the legislature and affect its normal operation
特別是本年度，反對派只是為了令《國歌條例草案》無法於本會期通過，便惡意拖延內務委員會的主席選舉，令正常只需要半個小時便可完成的選舉程序，拖延半年的時間，足足舉行了17次會議，仍未能夠選出主席。
In this legislative session in particular the opposition have solely for impeding the passage of the National Anthem Bill within this session maliciously delayed the election of the Chairman of the House Committee such that the election process which can normally be concluded within half an hour has dragged on for half a year . Seventeen meetings have been held but the Chairman has yet to be elected
在上周五的會議上，反對派由於不忿內務委員會主席李慧琼議員撥亂反正，召開及主持會議處理因反對派癱瘓會議而積壓的大量事項，居然公然動粗，粗暴衝擊議會，將議會的尊嚴破壞得蕩然無存。
Ms Starry LEE the Chairman of the House Committee put things right by holding and presiding over a meeting last Friday to deal with the backlog of agenda items arising from the paralysis of meetings by the opposition . Angered by such a move on her part the opposition surprisingly and blatantly resorted to violence . They brutally stormed the legislature and stripped the legislature of any trace of dignity
如今，反對派不但沒有反省和檢討自己的所作所為，反而因為秘書長有效的保安安排令他們無法搗亂議會，因為法律顧問的意見不中聽、不合意，百般指責和辱罵秘書長和法律顧問，甚至提出要求削減秘書長和法律顧問的薪酬。
Today not only have the opposition failed to reflect on themselves and review their deeds they even chide and curse the Secretary General and the Legal Adviser and even propose to cut the salaries of the Secretary General and the Legal Adviser . They do so as the effective security arrangement made by the Secretary General prevented them from disrupting the legislature and the views offered by the Legal Adviser were neither pleasant to their ears nor to their liking
我想請反對派撫心自問，這是否議員應有的客觀持平？
I would like to urge the opposition to ask themselves honestly whether this reflects objectivity and impartiality that Members should uphold
主席，反對派平時喜歡將"公義"二字放在嘴邊，我認為真正的公義是天道酬勤，凡是認真和辛勤努力工作的人都應得到肯定，應該是"有汗出便有糧出"。
Chairman the opposition are fond of talking about justice . In my view real justice entails rewarding people who are diligent . Anyone who works conscientiously and diligently should be appreciated and one should be paid as long as he sweats
如要削減薪金津貼，應該削減這些"有破壞無建設"、為一己私利罔顧民生、"攬炒"的反對派議員的全部薪金。
If there is a need to cut someones salaries and allowances we should cut all the salaries of opposition Members who are destructive instead of constructive disregard peoples livelihoods for the sake of their own interests and engage in mutual destruction
接下來，我也想談談修正案編號26至32，即關於香港警務處的7項修正案。
Next I would like to talk about Amendment Nos . 26 to 32 the seven amendments concerning the Hong Kong Police Force
我首先申報，我是獨立監察警方處理投訴委員會的副主席。
I first declare that I am a Vice - Chairman of the Independent Police Complaints Council
過去兩個星期，我十分認真聆聽反對派議員對於警方的各種指控。
Over the past two weeks I have listened seriously to opposition Members accusations against the Police
事實上，類似指控在近一年來幾乎每一天、每一分、每一秒都能夠從反對派的口中聽到。
In fact such accusations could be heard from the opposition almost each second each minute each day over the past year or so
近一年來，黑衣暴徒以反修例為藉口，肆意施壓，投擲磚塊、縱火、癱瘓交通、包圍香港警察總部、破壞立法會、"裝修藍店"、火燒政見不同人士、投擲磚塊致人死亡，可說是無惡不作，喪盡天良。
Over the past one year or so black - clad rioters have on the pretext of opposing the proposed legislative amendments arbitrarily exerted pressure on others hurled bricks committed arson paralysed traffic besieged the Hong Kong Police Headquarters damaged the Legislative Council Complex vandalized blue shops set ablaze people with differing political views and killed people by hurling bricks at them . They have virtually committed all imaginable misdeeds and are devoid of conscience
市民在黑衣暴徒的肆虐橫行下，個個都哀聲嘆氣，稍有不同聲音便會被暴徒"私了"，即使連揮動國旗，說一句"我是中國人"，也隨時會被打得半死。
As these black - clad rioters have run amok members of the public have all lamented bitterly . Anyone with a slightly differing voice would be subject to vigilante attacks . Even if one waves the national flag and says that I am Chinese he would likely be beaten to half death
我想問反對派，難道在這種暴力肆虐，整個香港也被"黑暴"糟蹋至體無完膚的情況下，肩負維持社會秩序重任的警察，還可以無動於衷？
I would like to put the following question to the opposition When acts of violence abound and the entire Hong Kong is being tormented beyond recognition by black violence can the Police who shoulder the responsibility of maintaining law and order sit inert?
還可以袖手旁觀，不採取及時行動，恢復正常的社會秩序嗎？
Can they still sit there with folded arms and take no actions in a timely manner to restore law and order?
如果通過反對派的修正案，削減警務處全年運作的預算開支，削減水警船艇和特別用途車輛等預算開支，那麼香港的社會秩序由誰來維持？
If we approve of the oppositions amendments to cut the estimated full - year operational expenses of the Police Force and cut the expenditure on Marine Police craft and police specialised vehicles who will maintain law and order in Hong Kong?
市民的生命和財產安全由誰來保障？
Who will safeguard the lives and properties of members of the public?
我希望提出修正案的反對派給予市民答覆。
I hope opposition Members who have proposed the amendments will give a reply to members of the public
主席，政見可以有不同，但是非黑白不應被顛倒和扭曲。
Chairman political views may differ but right and wrong should not be confused or distorted
我希望反對派即使對警察有萬般不滿，也要按現有機制追究，應該投訴便投訴，應追究法律責任，便訴諸於法律，而不是為了討好暴徒，爭取選票，終日盲目高叫解散警隊，畢竟這只會煽動對警察的仇恨情緒，加深社會的撕裂，最終受害的是整個香港社會。
I hope that even if they are extremely dissatisfied with the Police the opposition will pursue matters under the existing mechanism . They should lodge their complaints as and when necessary and bring a case to the Court when persons concerned should be held legally liable . The point is that they should not constantly and blindly call for dissolution of the Police Force so as to toady up the rioters and canvass votes
在種種艱難的環境下，香港實在已經沒有任何內訌、內亂的本錢。
Under such difficult circumstances Hong Kong indeed cannot afford any infighting or civil unrest
我由衷希望反對派能夠放下 對政府及警察的偏見和仇恨，少說一些沒有事實根據的偏激和挑釁辭句，多為市民做些實事，做些好事，這才是議員應有之義。
I sincerely hope that the opposition will put aside their prejudices and hatred against the Government and the Police refrain from making radical or provocative remarks that lack factual basis and do more practical and good things for members of the public . These are exactly the due responsibilities of Members
我告訴你：絕對不是。
Let me tell you the answer Definitely not
秘書處已經變成一個偏頗、非專業、為政權服務的組織，在我面前的秘書和保安人員要聽清楚。
The Secretariat has become a partial and non - professional organization serving the ruling authority . The Clerk and security officers in front of me should listen carefully
由陳維安帶領的秘書處，在處理《逃犯條例》時，率先在沒有任何主席、委員會主席、法案委員會主席，甚至是梁君彥的命令下發出通告，詢問議員是否要換掉涂謹申議員，改由石禮謙議員出任主持。
The Secretariat led by Kenneth CHEN in handling the Fugitive Offenders Ordinance issued a circular on its own initiative without being instructed by any Chairman neither a Chairman of a committee nor the Chairman of a Bills Committee and not even Andrew LEUNG asking Members whether Mr James TO should be replaced by Mr Abraham SHEK to preside over the meeting
我相信也是陳維安或是得到梁君彥的默許，在沒有會議舉行期間，在沒有任何委員會主席的命令下，竟然有五六十個可能沒有這麼多，但最低限度也有四五十個保安人員在非會議舉行時間內限制議員的人身活動，與議員"埋身肉搏"。
I believe it is due to Kenneth CHEN probably with the tacit approval of Andrew LEUNG that at the time when there was no meeting and without the instruction of any Chairman of a committee around 50 to 60 security officers―the number may be smaller yet there were at least 40 to 50 of them―restricted the personal activities of Members during non - meeting hours and engaged in physical scuffles with Members
在秘書處的內部行政中，她向所謂的立法會主席提供了她所謂的法律意見，然後所謂的保安人員便可以衝進來限制民主派議員的活動。
Under the internal administration of the Secretariat she provided her so - called legal advice to the so - called President of the Legislative Council and then the so - called security officers could dash in to restrict the activities of Members from the pro - democracy camp
秘書處已經誠信破產。
The Secretariat has its credibility sullied
當然，秘書處轄下，特別是服務議員的職員均是鞠躬盡瘁的，當中有好的職員。
Certainly staff of the Secretariat particularly those serving Members are working dutifully and whole - heartedly and there are good staff members
民政專員正在做這些卑劣、可耻的工作，令香港的選舉制度敗壞、令選舉的公正和廉潔敗壞。
These DOs are doing such despicable and shameful work which will erode the election system of Hong Kong and the fairness and probity of election
別跟我說他們只是"打份工"，他們全都是出賣香港人的所謂公務員、不知所謂的公僕。
Do not tell me that they are just working for a living . These so - called civil servants are betraying the people of Hong Kong . These public servants are ridiculous
不用我再多說的就是警隊，民主派議員在這裏鬧警察已鬧到口臭，但我仍想談談他們每年購置小型工具和一般設備的款額，說的是9,900多萬元。
As for the Police Force I do not have to say much . Members from the pro - democracy camp have condemned the Police so much here but it is just a waste of breath . Yet I still want to talk about the funding for the procurement of minor plant and equipment every year which amounts to 99 - odd million
小型工具涉及2億9,000萬元；特別用途車、裝甲車、不斷向市民噴射胡椒水的水炮車，共1億3,000多萬元。
Minor plant incurs 290 million while specialised vehicles armoured personnel carriers and water cannon vehicles spraying pepper water at the public cost 130 - odd million
現在很少用催淚彈，但用了很多次胡椒噴劑，這方面的開支屬於購置小型工具的款項。
I have applied for a judicial review in this connection . Currently they rarely fire tear gas but they have used pepper spray a number of times . These expenses are under the category of procuring minor plant
當噴到眼睛，會感到劇痛，差不多有半小時會看不到東西，不斷流眼水、流鼻水，嘴唇會痛得忍不住顫抖，呼吸會因為胡椒噴劑中的化學成分而受影響，變得不穩定，甚至抽促、氣喘。
People can hardly see anything for nearly half an hour with tears and runny nose . Due to the pain the lips cannot stop trembling . The chemicals in the pepper spray will affect breathing causing irregular breathing and even twitching and shortness of breath
為何他們認為自己配有這種武力，便可以殘害在現場的記者、市民、議員？
Why do they consider that they can harm journalists public and Members at the scene because they are equipped with such weapons?
他們簡直是惡意對待記者，並非鄧炳強所說的不理想，這些根本是極其卑劣的行為，是針對記者、打記者、噴記者，還要記者跪下、面壁、舉高手、對鏡頭讀出自己姓名和身份證號碼，他們根本當記者是犯人。
It is indeed extremely despicable directing against journalists . They beat and pepper - spray journalists and order them to kneel down face the wall raise their hands and say their name and identity card number before the camera . They are treating journalists as criminals
香港很多人為了一官半職，常說自己只是"打份工"，不要怪責他們，然而他們卻出賣了我們最珍貴、最珍貴的核心價值，令制度崩壞、淪陷。
Many people in Hong Kong with the intent to secure their jobs often say that they are merely working for a living and they should not be blamed . Yet they have betrayed the precious core values that we hold dear leading to the destruction and collapse of the system
我想問這些人，我剛才提及的官員、領取公帑的人，有沒有一分羞耻、有沒有一分尊嚴，是否配做一個人？
I have to ask those people government officials and people receiving public money whom I have just mentioned Do they not have the slightest sense of shame? . Do they not have the slightest sense of dignity? . Are they worthy of being a human being?
為何香港價值急速下跌、下滑？
Why would the values of Hong Kong plunge and sink rapidly?
主席，本來我並不打算在這個環節發言，但我留意到今天要討論的修正案中，有不少是無的放矢，亦有個別修正案更是無稽之談。
Chairman I did not intend to speak in this session originally but I noticed that many of the amendments being discussed today are pointless . Some of them are even ridiculous
我明白議員絕對有權提出修正案，不過這些涉及大幅削減預算開支的建議，基本上都是不切實際，亦不可能得到立法會的支持。
I understand that Members are perfectly entitled to propose amendments . However these amendments involving substantial reduction of the estimated expenditures are basically unrealistic and unable to obtain support in the Legislative Council
這些修正案的客觀效果只是拖延財政預算案的審議進度。
They simply serve to procrastinate the scrutiny progress of the Budget
事實上，針對行政長官或個別政府部門作出批評，本來有很多其他場合可以做到。
As a matter of fact there are many other occasions on which criticisms can be made against the Chief Executive or individual government departments
回顧香港在過去大半年經歷了反修例的衝擊，接着又承受新型肺炎的肆虐，加上現時全球也受疫症影響，整體前景絕對不容樂觀，在如此危急存亡之秋，要大幅度削減政府的預算開支是非常荒謬的。
Due to the impact brought about by the opposition to the proposed legislative amendments to Hong Kong over the past half year or so followed by the novel coronavirus epidemic which now affects the whole world the overall outlook remains grim . It is utterly ridiculous to substantially reduce the Governments estimated expenditure under such critical circumstances
自從新型肺炎於1月底在香港爆發後，為應對疫情，政府採取了多項措施，包括宣布學校停課、關閉康樂及文化事務署轄下的場地，以及要求公眾娛樂場所和健身中心等6項處所停業等，以加強對疫症的防控。
In response to the novel coronavirus outbreak in Hong Kong since the end of January the Government has implemented a number of measures including suspension of schools closure of venues under the Leisure and Cultural Services Department and suspension of business at six types of premises such as places of public entertainment and fitness centres in order to strengthen outbreak prevention and control
儘管上述措施能有效控制疫情的擴散，但措施的執行為社會不同行業帶來很大的影響，包括我所代表的體育、演藝、文化及出版界。
Although the above mentioned measures can effectively control the spreading of the outbreak their implementation did significantly impact various industries including the Sports Performing Arts Culture and Publication constituency that I represent
社會各界和每位市民急需立法會完成審議預算案的工作，加快推出千億元的逆周期措施。
Various sectors and every citizen are anxiously waiting for the completion of the scrutiny of the Budget by the Legislative Council and speedy implementation of the counter - cyclical measures amounting to over 100 billion
如果我們拖延預算案的審議進度，是百害而無一利的。
Procrastinating the scrutiny of the Budget is doing nothing but harm
在此，我想特別一提有關削減"總目122香港警務處"預算開支的修正案。
Here I would like to specifically mention the amendment proposing to reduce the estimated expenditure of Head 122―Hong Kong Police Force
我留意到有3位議員共提出7項修正案，提出完全削減香港警務處警隊特別用途車輛；機器、車輛及設備；證人、囚犯及遞解出境者；酬金及特別服務；甚至警務處全年運作的預算開支。
I noticed that three Members have proposed a total of seven amendments to reduce the estimated expenditures on police specialised vehicles; plant vehicles and equipment; witnesses prisoners and deportees; rewards and special services; and even the annual operating expenses of the Hong Kong Police Force
我真的很想問這幾位議員，敢不敢保證在未來1年完全不需要警方提供的任何服務呢？
I really want to ask these Members Do they dare guarantee that they will not require any police services in the coming year?
是否連1次電話求助也不會作出呢？
Will they not make even one phone call to ask for help?
主席，過去大半年以來的反修例運動，特別是當中的極端暴力衝擊，可說是自香港開埠以來社會最嚴重的危機，警隊在維持社會治安及公眾秩序方面的工作亦是史無前例。
Chairman the movement of opposition to the proposed legislative amendments over the past half a year or so is arguably the most severe social crisis since Hong Kong was open for trade especially because of the extreme violent acts involved . The efforts made by the Police in maintaining public order is also unprecedented
自去年6月9日以來，香港發生了超過1,400宗反修例示威活動，當中大部分以暴力衝擊作結。
Since 9 June last year more than 1 400 protests against the proposed legislative amendments have been staged most of which ended with violent charging
