我想提出的補充質詢是，當局在主體答覆的最後一段指出："以10間建築工程公司涉嫌違反《競爭條例》的案件為例，房委會已即時作出檢視，並決定在有關法律程序完成前，停止安排這些承辦商駐邨/苑，並撤銷他們在其他屋邨/苑承辦裝修工程的牌照/協議。"我想問當局會在整宗案件完結後才這樣做，還是現時就會把這10間公司從參考名單中剔除呢？
My supplementary question is as the authorities pointed out in the last paragraph of the main reply [t]aking the case of 10 building works companies being suspected of contravening CO as an example HA has conducted a review immediately and decided to prior to the completion of the legal proceedings stop arranging these contractors to be stationed in estatescourts and revoked their licencesagreements for undertaking decoration works in other estatescourts so may I ask the authorities whether such actions will be carried out after the conclusion of the case or these 10 companies will be removed from the Reference List now?
感謝容海恩議員的補充質詢及意見。
I thank Ms YUNG Hoi - yan for her supplementary question and views
剛才提到的10間裝修承辦商現正面對競委會的檢控。
The aforementioned 10 DCs are facing prosecution initiated by CC
房委會已經發信通知他們，在法律程序未完結前，當局會停止編配他們駐邨/苑承辦其他工程，亦會撤銷他們在其他屋邨承辦裝修工程的牌照/協議，是即時進行的。
HA has informed them through correspondence that prior to the completion of legal proceedings the authorities will stop arranging them to conduct other works and also revoke their licencesagreements for undertaking decoration works in other estatescourts . These actions will be taken immediately
所以，房委會在此方面應該更小心處理，甚至要加強監管。
Therefore HA should exercise more caution in this respect and even strengthen its monitoring
然而，在此機制之下，房委會無權監管裝修費，因為這是住戶與承辦商之間的協議。
Nevertheless under the mechanism HA has no authority to monitor the decoration fees because they are to be agreed between residents and DCs
主席，局長今天的答覆，我覺得是一廂情願。
President I consider the reply given by the Secretary today wishful thinking
局長總是說要保障居民的利益，但事實上經過安達邨事件之後，大家看到其實居民的利益受到最大損害。
The Secretary has been talking about protection of residents interests but in fact after the On Tat Estate incident it is evident to all that residents interests suffer the most
局長剛才提到參考名單的制度在1982年推行，並在2013年8月及2015年8月進行檢討。
The Secretary mentioned just now that the Reference List System was implemented in 1982 and reviewed in August 2013 and August 2015
設立制度的本意及初衷真的是為了保障居民的權益，尤其是在當時的時代背景之下，新屋邨入伙時往往出現很多不法行為，對住戶造成很多滋擾。
The original intention and aim of the set - up of the System were to protect residents interests particularly in such a historical context back then when many illegal activities arose during the intake of newly completed housing estates causing a lot of disturbances to residents
當局在2015年對參考名單作出檢討後，落實了多項改善措施，當中包括以下3方面：為了維護開放公平的市場環境，房委會在其網站及本地報章，公開邀請有意加入參考名單的裝修公司，在指定時間內提出申請。
After reviewing the Reference List in 2015 the authorities implemented many improvement measures covering the following three aspects to uphold an open and fair market environment HA issued an open invitation on its website and in the press to decoration companies intending to be included in the Reference List to submit applications during the specified invitation period
在加強風險管理方面，當局提高了欲加入參考名單的承辦商的資金及保證書的金額，以及工程經驗的要求，並採用公正、合理及透明的機制進行監管，以及優化裝修承辦商的表現評核機制，例如修訂作為評核準則的意見調查表，以提供更客觀的標準。
As regards stepping up risk management the authorities raised the required amounts of capital and surety bond for DCs intending to be included in the Reference List as well as the required years of experience in decoration works while adopting a fair reasonable and transparent mechanism for monitoring and also optimizing the performance assessment mechanism for DCs such as revising the survey form which serves as an assessment criterion to provide a more objective basis
我們亦參考了由政府統計處公布的綜合消費物價指數的升幅，將參考名單內承辦商的資金要求由150萬元增加至240萬元，而所須的銀行保證書的金額亦由50萬元增加至70萬元。
Taking into account the increase in the Composite Consumer Price Index released by the Census and Statistics Department we also increased the capital requirement for DCs to be included in the Reference List from 1.5 million to 2.4 million and the amount of surety bond from 500,000 to 700,000
配合房委會工程的要求，承辦商的投保保額修訂為每宗意外2,000萬元。
In line with the requirements for HA works the required insurance coverage of DCs has been revised to 20 million per accident
我們希望通過與時並進的措施來改進、優化制度，保障居民的權益。
We wish to improve and optimize the System through measures kept abreast of the times to protect residents rights and interests
代理主席，關於這項《追加撥款條例草案》，有同事可能會認為"慢咇"是在無的放矢。
Deputy President with regard to the Supplementary Appropriation 2016 - 2017 Bill the Bill certain colleagues may consider Slow Beat is making groundless criticisms
代理主席，我想就他的發言作出補充，而在我作出補充前，我想先陳述背景，希望代理主席容許我繼續說下去。
Deputy President I would like to add a few points to his speech . Yet before doing that I have to provide some background information and I hope the Deputy President will allow me to continue
代理主席，現時香港公共財政的秩序其實有如一個"摩天輪"。
Deputy President at present the order of public finance in Hong Kong can actually be likened to a Ferris wheel
根據《條例》第8條，財務委員會可對"摩天輪"作出修改，包括開立新總目或分目、在經核准的分目或新分目中的追加備付款項、變更職位編制及提高對並非是每年經常出現的開支的承擔限額，其實全部關乎我們今天二讀《條例草案》的內容。
According to section 8 of PFO the Finance Committee may make changes to the Ferris wheel which include providing for the creation of new heads or subheads; supplementary provision in approved or new subheads; variations in the establishments of posts and increases in the limit to the commitments which may be entered into in respect of expenditure which is not annually recurrent . Actually all these matters are related to the content of the Second Reading of the Bill today
因此，整件事很有邏輯，亦顯示出大會與財務委員會之間的清晰分工。
Hence the entire procedure is logical which sets out clearly the division of work between the Council and the Finance Committee
陳志全議員指出到現在2018年1月才進行二讀，當中的拖延明顯違反了"於切實可行範圍內"的規定。
Mr CHAN Chi - chuen pointed out that since the Second Reading of the Bill is being conducted only now in January 2018 the delay has obviously violated the requirement of as soon as practicable
該預算須在該年度開始之後，即在財政年度開始之後的切實可行範圍內與撥款條例草案一同提交立法會。
The estimates shall upon the commencement of that year be introduced into the Legislative Council at the same time as the Appropriation Bill as soon as practicable after the start of the financial year
就着這種對法例的相同字眼採取雙重標準，政府必須回應。
The Government must give a response about this double standard applied to the same wording in the legislation
如果"摩天輪"在年度終結時可以延遲9個月，其實會令市民對整個"摩天輪"的起點或運轉方式失去信心。
If the Ferris wheel can be delayed for nine months in the clearing of accounts after the close of the financial year the public will lose their confidence in the Ferris wheel in terms of its starting point and mode of operation
我會在全體委員會階段聆聽其他同事的發言後，再視乎情況考慮在最後的三讀階段的投票取向。
I will listen to the speeches of other colleagues during the Committee stage and consider my voting preference at the Third Reading depending on the situation
然而，你這個判決違反了《基本法》第七十五條，因為全體委員會其實跟立法會大會一樣，法定人數應該是35人。
However your ruling contravenes Article 75 of the Basic Law for a committee of the whole Council is in fact the same as the Legislative Council and its quorum should be 35 Members
我們手上的《追加撥款條例草案》的內容基本上只屬技術性質。
Basically the contents of the Supplementary Appropriation 2016 - 2017 Bill the Bill on hand are just technical in nature
令我有這種反應的肯定並非"慢咇"議員，而是他引述張建宗所說的"果效"。
What evoked such a reaction from me was certainly not Mr Slow Beat . Rather it was the word 果效 which he quoted from Matthew CHEUNGs speech
政府現時的用字非常奇特，我們說"擠擁"，它就說"擁擠"；我們說"質素"，它就說"素質"。
Now the Governments choice of words is eccentric . We say 擠擁 but it says 擁擠; we say 質素 but it says 素質
代理主席你不用打斷我的發言，我會自行返回討論追加撥款超過80億元的問題。
Deputy President you need not interrupt me . I will come back to the discussion about the supplementary appropriation of over 8 billion
何時恢復二讀辯論、全體委員會審議階段及三讀呢？
When would the resumption of Second Reading debate committee stage and Third Reading take place?
它說另行通知。
It reads to be notified
一直拖延至今，今天是1月9日，還是10日？
It was delayed all the way until now . Is today 9 or 10 January?
陳志全議員剛才已經說得很清楚，亦很仔細地向大家解釋為何會發生這樣的情況。
Just now Mr CHAN Chi - chuen already spelt out the case clearly and explained to us in detail why such a situation had arisen
首先，這個政府真的不太講求法治。
Firstly this Government really does not care too much about the rule of law
"老兄"，若真的有法治精神，就要配合《公共財政條例》的要求。
Buddy if it does observe the spirit of the rule of law it should comply with the requirements of the Public Finance Ordinance
英國政府以往的文件是一疊疊的，要怎樣集合起來呢？
In the past the documents of the British Government were laid in piles . How were they put together?
返回我手上的文件，這是財經事務及庫務局去年10月4日發出的，寫得非常仔細。
Back to the document in my hand . It was issued by the Financial Services and the Treasury Bureau on 4 October last year . It was written in detail
在"建議的影響"部分，它表示"建議符合《基本法》"，說得多麼清楚，我看到後真的覺得非常有意思，但這已是去年10月4日的說法。
In Implications of the Proposal it reads The proposal is in conformity with the Basic Law . It was stated so clearly . After reading it I really found it quite interesting but this point was already made on 4 October last year
大家可能記憶猶新，廉署曾經因為梁振英而經歷了一些風波，我不會在此複述，你不用擔心，我不會把故事從頭說起。
I am not going to repeat it here . You need not worry . I will not recount the story all over again
主席，眾所周知，政府本年度的財政盈餘又會超過千億元，千億元的盈餘那麼厲害，難道財政司司長再次計錯數？
Chairman as we all know the Government will again record a fiscal surplus of over 100 billion this year . How awesome is a surplus of 100 billion . Could it be another instance of miscalculation by the Financial Secretary?
香港賣地是以拍賣方式進行的，由發展商入標，實行高地價政策，原本香港本地的發展商估計或假設某幅地的價值為650億元，但來自大陸的紅色資本出價720億元，這便一定中標。
Land in Hong Kong is sold by auction with bids submitted by the developers under a high land price policy . For a site originally evaluated at 65 billion according to the estimate or presumption of local developers in Hong Kong the red capital from the Mainland will bid for it at 72 billion and they are set to win
政府所謂的"辣"，基本上是來自四川人吃的很辣的食物，當中亦包含中文的奧妙，便是"不怕辣"。
That the Governments measures are described as spicy 辣 is actually an idea borrowed from the spicy cuisines of the Sichuanese people . It also features the subtleties of the Chinese language in that one can say 不怕辣 as the market obviously fears no spiciness now
現在的市場分明是"不怕辣"，還有"辣不怕"，無論你如何"辣"，我仍然不怕你，更有趣的是最後一句"怕不辣"，我更怕你不辣。
One can also say 辣不怕 which means that I do not fear it however spicy it is . Lastly and more interestingly one can say 怕不辣 which means one fears that it is not spicy at all
但是，他們這樣子買樓，即變相搶香港的貨，我們也沒有辦法，香港是自由市場，難道不讓別人買嗎？
But when they bought properties in such a way they were like robbing Hong Kong of its goods though we can do nothing about it as Hong Kong is a free market and we could not bar other people from making these purchases could we?
大家可能會說這是假設性的問題，是否一定會有假設性的答案？
Members may argue that this is a hypothetical question and will there definitely be a hypothetical answer?
我不知道；但事實是，在香港提到房屋的問題，這是很多人心中一根最大的刺。
I do not know . But the fact is that when it comes to the housing problem in Hong Kong it is the biggest thorn in the hearts of many people
是否一定要買樓呢？
Is it a must to buy a flat?
假設在1980年代的一個豪宅，至今的升幅可高達300多倍。
For a luxurious apartment bought in the 1980s its price can be increased by as much as over 300 times
那我們如何對年青人說不一定要買樓，租住也可以？
Then how can we tell the young people that they do not necessarily have to buy a flat and renting a home is also an option?
如果1980年代的年青人一直租住樓宇至今，而你當年叫他們不要買樓，自己卻買了，到了今天，你說自己的單位市值升了差不多300倍，尤其是物業是看地段或地區的，如果地區好的話，真的可以升值超過300倍。
If young people in the 1980s have been renting a home and you told them not to buy a flat but then you bought it yourself you would be saying today that the market value of your flat has increased by almost 300 times especially as the property value depends on the location or the district of the property and if it is in a good district its value can really increase by over 300 times
你坐擁數千萬元的豪宅，很是了不起，而另一人卻 兩袖清風，因為他當年的想法是不一定要買樓，但現在兩者的財富比例相差極遠。
You are the owner of a luxurious apartment valued at tens of millions of dollars and you are doing just great whereas the other person is fortuneless because back then he took the view that buying a flat was not a must . But now they are so far apart from each other in terms of wealth
那我們又怎樣向這一代的年青人說呢？
So how can we say it to the young people of this generation?
今時今日，政府推出這項有關印花稅的所謂"辣招"，它是有點兒"辣"，一如剛才陳志全議員所說，但卻與我所期望的有少許差距，因為我當初看到涂謹申議員的修正案也感到少許出奇，我以為無須節外生枝，梁振英當時只急於尋求連任，推出這項措施必定是"辣招"，大家再加進其他東西，只會自找麻煩。
Now that the Government has introduced this so - called spicy measure relating to the stamp duty . Yes it is a bit spicy just as Mr CHAN Chi - chuen said earlier but it still falls a little short of my expectation . I was a bit taken by surprise when I first saw Mr James TOs amendment as I thought that it would be unnecessary to make things complicated
但結果是1年多以來，樓價完全是有升無跌。
But it has been more than a year now and property prices have risen across the board
與此同時，我仍然擔心，香港號稱自由市場，但紅色資本，尤其是在賣地這一環，這樣橫掃香港，因為他們有錢，香港一個小小的地產商，如何與國庫或與北京國庫有聯繫的招牌競爭呢？
In the meantime I still have concerns . Hong Kong is known as a free market but the red capital has been sweeping across Hong Kong especially in land sales because they have money . How can a small property developer in Hong Kong compete with the national treasury or companies having connections with Beijings national treasury?
我不知道石禮謙議員為何指着自己，你的意思是說你代表香港的地產商，是嗎？
I wonder why Mr Abraham SHEK is pointing at himself . You mean you stand for the real estate developers in Hong Kong dont you?
如果一直是這樣的話，香港的經濟在地產這一環節便完全由紅色資本操控，大家對此有何想法呢？
If things go on like this the real estate sector in the economy of Hong Kong will be fully controlled by the red capital and what do Members think about this?
我們以前會說，香港的地產商，例如李嘉誠、李兆基等操控香港的命脈，因為他們是最大的地產商，但遲些時候便會全部由大陸紅色資本操控，屆時大家只可坐着望地興歎。
We used to say that the real estate developers in Hong Kong such as LI Ka - shing and LEE Shau - kee hold the lifeline of Hong Kong because they are the major property tycoons but some time later everything will be controlled by the red capital in the Mainland and by then we can only sit helplessly and sigh over the land
主席，我也應該不會用盡15分鐘的發言時間。
President I should not be using all the 15 minutes of my speaking time
一部分是有關政府不將《追加撥款條例草案》及早根據《公共財政條例》盡快提交立法會討論和通過，反而將《條例草案》擱置，先讓政府就"一地兩檢"提出的無法律效力的議案通過，又再配合建制派修改《議事規則》。
One is about the Government failing to introduce the Supplementary Appropriation 2016 - 2017 Bill the Bill for discussion and passage by the Legislative Council under the Public Finance Ordinance as early as possible but shelving the Bill instead to enable the passage of the Governments non - binding motion on the co - location arrangement and then provide support to the pro - establishment camp in the amendment of the Rules of Procedure RoP
就這種做法，剛才陳志全議員在他的發言中已詳細說明，我不想重複，他已經很清楚地敍述在整段時間內，政府是有提出《條例草案》的空間，但卻基本上一直失職，甚至違反《公共財政條例》。
With regard to this approach Mr CHAN Chi - chuen already gave a detailed account of it in his speech earlier on and I do not wish to make any repetition . He stated very clearly that during that period of time the Government had room to introduce the Bill but it had been derelict of its duty and even acted against the Public Finance Ordinance
就這一點，我只能夠指出，政府再度假仁假義，不斷強調民生先行，但實際上的做法是政治先行。
On this point I can only point out that this is another instance of sheer mendacity on the part of the Government . While it keeps on stressing that the peoples livelihood has priority over everything else what it has actually done is to give precedence to politics
政治先行，民生押後，這已十分清楚。
Politics comes first whereas the peoples livelihood is put off . This is all very clear
很多議員也提及這點，我不想重複；但我不希望現屆政府永遠來到立法會便說民主派這樣那樣，又說我們"拉布"，又說我們阻礙民生，但他們的做法實際上卻是以政治阻礙民生。
Many Members have mentioned this point and I do not wish to make any repetition but it is not my wish to see the current - term Government invariably taking the pro - democracy camp to task for this and for that whenever they come to the Legislative Council accusing us of filibustering and impeding initiatives related to peoples livelihood but what they have done is actually using politics to impede the peoples livelihood
第二，我正正想說民生這部分。
Second I precisely wish to talk about the peoples livelihood
當然，今天不一定是賺錢養妻，可能是 養夫，我們的社會是男女平等的，但無論如何，對於薪酬調整，我們認為當中的重要原則是不應促進公務員的貧富懸殊。
Of course nowadays salaries are not necessarily for supporting the living of wives because they may be used for supporting the living of husbands since men and women are equal in our society . But in any case with regard to the pay adjustment we consider it an important principle that the pay adjustment should not aggravate the wealth gap among civil servants
大家都是公務員、都是政府的僱員、都是公僕。
They are all civil servants and they are government employees public servants alike
老實說，有人或會說薪酬要反映員工的工作表現或工作的貢獻或其工作性質，但這些準則均難以量度，你能否說一名清潔工人的貢獻少於一名文員的貢獻？
Frankly speaking some people may say that the salary reflects an employees performance or contribution at work or the nature of his job but these criteria can hardly be measurable . Can you say that a cleaning worker makes less contribution than a clerk?
工作無分貴賤，貢獻亦難以用金錢量度，而公務員的薪酬也不能夠完全根據市場來釐定，因為公務員本身的性質有其獨特性，而公務員在各方面擁有的福利、保障，以至公權力，在其他地方其實是沒有的。
All work is noble . Contribution cannot be measured in money terms and the pay of civil servants cannot be determined fully in line with the market for civil servants are unique by nature and the benefits protection and even public powers at the disposal of civil servants in various aspects cannot be found in other sectors
所以，我們認為政府作為社會領導，應該以身作則。
Therefore we hold that the Government being the leader of society should set an example for others to follow
今天香港的社會已經是貧富懸殊，我也無需再多說有關的數字，大家已經很清楚，最新的堅尼系數反映香港的貧富懸殊情況沒有改善，甚至更有一點惡化。
There is already a gap between the rich and the poor nowadays and I do not need to further explain the figures concerned for Members should know only too well that the latest Gini Coefficient has not reflected any improvement in the wealth gap in Hong Kong and worse still there is even some slight worsening of it
因此，政府薪酬的整體架構不應繼續作為貧富懸殊的元兇之一。
Therefore the Governments pay adjustment structure should not continue to be a chief culprit for the wealth gap
在英國，最保守的保守黨的首相上場時，也說到在英國的公務員體系中，薪酬的差距不能夠超過20倍，即最高薪的公務員的薪酬不能夠高於最低薪公務員薪酬的20倍，哪怕是與最基礎的庶務員相比，最高薪的公務員的薪酬不會多於最低薪公務員的20倍，20倍其實已經十分離譜。
In the United Kingdom the Prime Minister of the most conservative Conservative Party said when assuming office that in the British civil service system the pay gap must be no more than 20 times meaning that the salaries of civil servants with the highest pay and those of civil servants with the lowest pay must be no more than 20 times apart . Even when a comparison is made with the most basic rank of a clerk the salaries of the highest - paid civil servants must not outweigh the salaries of the lowest - paid civil servants for more than 20 times though a difference of 20 times is already outrageous
當然，主席，我們知道市場上的薪酬差距有機會達到數以百倍，這是完全荒謬的。
Of course President we understand that the pay gap in the market may be as wide as hundreds of times which is grossly ridiculous
如果一個社會存在公義，如果一個社會認為整體上，無論是甚麼階層、性別或身份，只要你願意投入工作、努力地全職工作，你領取回家的薪酬應該可以養活自己，甚至可以養家。
If in a society there is justice and if it is considered that generally speaking disregarding a persons class gender or identity and as long as he is willing to work or work full - time conscientiously his take - home pay should be sufficient to feed himself and even his family
但是，香港今天的公務員薪酬制度並不一定反映這情況。
However the existing civil service pay system may not reflect such a situation
大家也看到最近的海麗邨事件，而過往實在有太多有關外判的事件均清楚顯示，政府的外判制度只會造成更多低薪工人，亦是造成在職貧窮的元兇之一。
Members have seen what happened in the Hoi Lai Estate incident recently and in the past there were indeed too many incidents relating to outsourcing that clearly showed that the Governments outsourcing system will only create a larger pool of low - income workers and is a chief culprit for in - work poverty
因為我們看到，領取最低工資的勞工人口只佔大約一點多個百分點，而實際上，如果我們看看數字，便會知道這些工人大部分從事政府外判的工作。
Because as we can see the percentage of workers paid at the minimum wage rate is only about one point something and in fact if we look at the figures we will know that these workers are mostly engaged in work outsourced by the Government
因此，就公務員薪酬這部分來說，我覺得政府是有改善的必要。
Therefore insofar as the civil service pay is concerned I think improvement by the Government is necessary
另外，關於發放額外1個月綜援金，這是財政司司長每年所說的一次性紓困措施。
Besides concerning the provision of one additional month of CSSA payment it is a one - off relief measure as referred to by the Financial Secretary every year
對於一次性紓困措施，我覺得這些措施應該真的用作紓困，意思是幫助一些基層的、低收入的或貧窮人士，但我們往往看到的是，這些所謂紓困措施只是幫助有錢人。
With regard to one - off relief measures I think they should really serve the purpose of providing relief to people in difficulties which means helping the grassroots low - income earners or the poor but we often see that these so - called relief measures are only helping the rich
所以，對於這些一次性紓困措施，如果八成是向基層及低收入人士提供的，我們便拍手贊成。
As such with regard to these one - off relief measures if 80 % of them are provided for the grassroots and low - income earners we would welcome them and applaud them in agreement
我不是說中產沒有困苦，今天他們要供樓、交租，絕對是處於非常困難的情況。
I am not saying that the middle - class people do not have any difficulty . They have to meet their mortgage repayments and rentals and they are absolutely in a very difficult situation
不過，如果政府真的要推行紓困措施，請政府以幫助基層為主。
Having said that if the Government is genuinely committed to implementing relief measures I urge the Government to primarily target at helping the grassroots
有關綜援的問題，當然我不會在此詳細講述；但情況很清楚，現時透過一次性紓困措施，每年額外發放1個月綜援的做法，其實並不能提供幫助。
Concerning CSSA I am not going to talk about it in detail here . But it is clear that the provision of an additional month of CSSA payment annually as a one - off relief measure is actually not helpful at all
實際上，1個月的金額是多少呢，主席？
In fact how much is a one - month payment President?
主席，今天綜緩的基本金額嚴重落後，社會福利界過去對此亦有很多批評，並提出何謂基本生活？
President the current standard rate of CSSA payment suffers a serious lag . The social welfare sector has made a lot of criticisms of it and raised the question of how basic living should be defined
因為基本生活是基本金額的基礎，而對於基本生活的研究，對上一次是1996年，即是說1996年之後，我們根本完全沒有檢視何謂基本生活，我們只是根據當年那套標準本來沒有打算說這麼久那套標準當然沒有電腦或平板電腦、手機、網上學習等，但那套思維仍然當作是今天基本生活的標準，所以是極之落後。
It is because basic living forms the basis of the standard payment and the last study on basic living was conducted in 1996 which means that after 1996 there has been no review of the definition of basic living and we are only following the standards set back in those years ―I originally did not intend to speak for this long―those standards certainly do not cover computers or tablet computers mobile telephones online learning etc and yet the old mindset is still adopted as the standards for basic living nowadays and therefore it is extremely outdated
政府現在每年發放額外1個月的金額，讓他們勉強支撐生活，這是不行的；再加上租金飆升，"超租"的情況，亦即綜援的租金津貼完全不足夠在市場上租住"劏房"的情況非常普遍，超過五成領取綜援而要在私樓居住的人都是"超租"的。
That the Government provides an additional one - month payment annually for them to barely make ends meet is not going to work . Added to this are the surging rental and the prevalence of the situation of over rent which means that the rent allowance under CSSA is not adequate to meet the rent for a subdivided unit in the market as over 50 % of the CSSA recipients who live in private flats are paying rent in excess of the rent allowance
所以，主席，我們不是不支持一次過的紓困措施，但請政府認真檢討制度本身的缺失，而不是每年逐少逐少地提供，但所提供的卻又仍然不足夠。
Therefore President it is not the case that we do not support the provision of one - off relief measures but we urge the Government to seriously review the inadequacies of the system rather than providing measures bit by bit every year with the provision being still far from adequate
這項二讀議案其實是一項憲政問題。
This motion on Second Reading is actually a constitutional issue
主席，為了令一些在電視機前面或正在聽我們辯論的市民明白，也許我很簡單地說一說為何要追加撥款。
President to make the public watching the debate on television or listening to the broadcast understand the case please allow me to give a brief account of the reasons for making supplementary appropriation
此外，舉例來說，就開支總目33土木工程拓展署而言，那是北角汽車渡輪碼頭的緊急維修額外支出，是原本想不到會有這筆開支的。
Take the expenditure Head 33 on Civil Engineering and Development Department as an example . The appropriation is for the urgent maintenance work of the North Point Vehicular Ferry Pier which is an unexpected expense
"主席，接着提及的第9條很清楚地說明為了節省時間，我不詳細引述整項條例了"於切實可行範圍內盡快提交立法會"。
President section 9 mentioned therein states clearly that the Bill should be introduced as soon as practicable―in order to save time I will not quote the provision in full and in detail
大家要記着，那"須"字是包括在追加撥款條例草案內，以及"於切實可行範圍內盡快提交立法會"。
Members should bear in mind that the word need is used for the introduction of the Supplementary Appropriation Bill under the condition as soon as practicable
這是政府的責任。
Hence the Government is obliged to do so
