如果以20年計算，每年取出數百億元，會否使我們的庫房清袋呢？
If we take for calculation purpose several tens of billions of dollars per year for a period of 20 years will our public coffers be drained?
而且從長遠角度來看，填海賣地的收益和經濟效益，一定是遠遠會大於工程費用。
Besides from a long - term perspective the proceeds and economic benefits of land reclamation must be far more than the project cost
一些別有用心人士，一味誇大人工島的興建費用，而不會計算將來香港得益，我認為根本是短視和危言聳聽。
Some people with ulterior motives keep exaggerating the construction cost of the artificial islands without factoring in the future benefits to Hong Kong . I think they are downright short - sighted and alarmist
代理主席，自從有消息指出，政府要在大嶼山填海，反對派的態度就是"例牌"反對。
Deputy President ever since news broke that the Government would carry out reclamation on Lantau Island the opposition camp has displayed its usual attitude of saying No
他們似乎已經忘記了香港多年的發展，也是依靠填海。無論是繁華的商業用地、住上了過百萬人的新市鎮、香港引以為傲的新機場等，都是依靠填海造地得來的。
They seem to have forgotten that over many years Hong Kong has relied on reclamation for its development which is true of bustling commercial areas new towns housing over 1 million population and the new airport that Hong Kong is proud of among others
沙田、屯門、大埔、將軍澳和東涌，都是填海出來的。
Sha Tin Tuen Mun Tai Po Tseung Kwan O and Tung Chung are all reclaimed land
更加重要的是，香港有不少心臟地帶和重要地標，包括中環、灣仔北一帶，以至香港國際機場等，全部都是由填海造地而來。
It was also created by reclamation . Notably many core areas and important landmarks in Hong Kong including Central Wan Chai North and Hong Kong International Airport all came from reclamation
我記得，當年的"玫瑰園計劃"由於預算高達2,000億元，被抨擊為"大白象"工程，受盡千夫所指。
I remember that the Rose Garden Project proposed years ago was widely slammed as a white elephant project because of its huge 200 billion budget
歷史證明這項龐大的投資，已經成為香港競爭力的重要指標。
History has proved that this enormous investment has become an important indicator of Hong Kongs competitiveness
代理主席，新一份施政報告以"堅定前行燃點希望"作為主題。
Deputy President the new Policy Address has taken as its theme Striving Ahead Rekindling Hope
既然政府在房屋土地方面提出了重大的短中長期目標，我也希望香港真的能夠向前行，還要做到議而即決，決而即行，千萬不要拖拖拉拉。
Given that the Government has put forward major short - medium - and long - term goals in respect of housing land I also hope that Hong Kong can really forge ahead . In addition it is imperative for deliberations to be followed immediately by decisions and further followed by immediate actions leaving absolutely no room for procrastination
"明日大嶼"計劃勾劃出香港未來發展藍圖，如果落實，是可以做到官商民三贏，解決香港長久以來土地供應不足的問題。
The Lantau Tomorrow project outlines a blueprint for the future development of Hong Kong . If implemented it can resolve the long lasting problem of land supply shortage in Hong Kong thus achieving a triple - win situation for the Government the business sector and the public
所以，政府應盡快展開各項評估、研究和前期工作。
Therefore the Government should proceed to conduct a range of assessment research and preliminary work as soon as possible
代理主席，現時"明日大嶼"只屬初步構思階段，公眾可以從不同角度討論和提出意見，特區政府也應該用心聆聽，並提出有理有據的具體方案來回應市民的訴求，這樣才可以使這個計劃更合乎民情和更有可行性。
Members of the public can discuss it and express their views from different angles . The SAR Government should also listen carefully to them and put forward justified and specific proposals to address public aspirations . Only in so doing can it make this project more responsive to public sentiment and more feasible
當然，除了填海，政府亦要繼續多管齊下，務求可以在短時間內提供土地。
Of course apart from reclamation the Government should continue to take a multi - pronged approach in seeking to provide land in a short period of time
我認為，發展閒置農地和棕地，都應該要盡快進行。
I hold that both idle agricultural land and brownfield sites should be developed as soon as possible
現時，新界鄉紳和發展商等不同持份者皆擁有豐厚的農地儲備。
At present different stakeholders in the New Territories such as the rural gentry and developers hold an ample amount of agricultural land reserves
據報道，單是主要發展商，已經持有近千公頃的農地，相等於3個啟德發展區用地。
It has been reported that the major developers alone are already holding almost a thousand hectares of agricultural land which is equivalent to triple the site of Kai Tak Development Area
政府可以發揮新思維，透過公私營合作模式，發展相關農地作不同的土地用途。
The Government can under a new mindset develop the relevant agricultural land for different land uses through the public - private partnership approach
談到公私營合作，有些人會立即聯想到官商勾結，所以一直也避而不談。
Speaking of public - private partnership some people may immediately associate it with government - business collusion so they have all along shied away from talking about it
其實，只要有公開透明的制度，發展商需要按嚴謹程序補地價、賠償和搬遷，而按照法定機制，政府可以附加條件，要求發展商提供學校、公園和醫院等配套，相信將有助釋除社會的疑慮。
In fact as long as there is an open and transparent system under which developers have to pay the land premium provide compensation and arrange relocation according to strict procedures and the Government can impose additional conditions on developers through a statutory mechanism requiring them to provide ancillary facilities such as schools parks and hospitals I believe that such a system can help address concerns of the community
政府亦應該考慮釋放棕地，作為短中期的住宅供應。因為，現時不少棕地附近也是已發展地區，並且有交通、道路和排污等配套，只要有規劃的決心，就可以在短期內把生地轉為熟地。
The Government should also consider releasing brownfield sites for short - and medium - term residential housing supply because as many existing brownfield sites are close to developed areas with transport road sewage disposal and other facilities the potential sites can be turned into disposed sites in a short period of time provided that the Governments sights are set on such planning
當然，我們經常也說，政府應該主動出擊，做好交通配套，令一個地方有更好的發展，而非死板地每件事物也只看數字，要計算附近有多少人前往居住，然後才進行交通配套，這個思維應該要改變了。
Of course as we often say the Government should proactively provide good transport supporting facilities to enable better development of an area instead of rigidly adopting a numbers - only approach to calculate the number of people moving in from nearby areas before providing such facilities . It is high time to change this thinking
代理主席，無可否認，土地供應是香港面臨的一大挑戰。
Deputy President land supply is undeniably a major challenge for Hong Kong
我希望社會各界能夠集思廣益，謀劃覓地建屋的良策；政府各個部門也應以專業和中立態度研究各方案的可行性，為市民紓憂解困。
I hope that all sectors of the community can pool their collective wisdom to devise good strategies to identify land for housing development . Government departments should also study the feasibility of various proposals with professionalism and neutrality to mitigate the publics concerns and hardships
行政長官林鄭月娥上任一年來，政府已投資多個基建工程項目，再加上新公布的"明日大嶼"計劃，社會各行各業將可從重大商機中受惠。
Over the past year since the Chief Executive Mrs Carrie LAM took office the Government has already invested in a number of infrastructure projects . Together with the newly announced Lantau Tomorrow project they will offer significant business opportunities that benefit all trades and industries in the community
可是，人才和勞工短缺問題困擾多個行業，為免香港的經濟發展陷入瓶頸，政府有必要妥善處理人力資源的問題，按行業需要引入外來勞動力，包括各類人才和勞工。
However the shortage of talent and labour has plagued many industries . In order to prevent Hong Kongs economic development from being caught in a bottleneck it is imperative for the Government to properly deal with the issue of human resources and introduce labour from other places including various types of talents and workers according to industry needs
香港現時輸入外勞的政策相當過時，建造業長期人手不足，工資持續上升，但由於工作太辛苦，難以吸引本地年青人入行，這問題亦成為樓價高企的幫兇。
Hong Kongs current policy on labour importation is quite outdated . Despite a persistent shortage of labour and a constant wage growth the construction industry can hardly attract local young recruits thanks to the exceedingly tough working conditions . This problem has also played a part in fuelling the property price hike
此外，市民的住屋需求上升，興建住宅也要大量人手。
In addition with an increasing public demand for housing a significant amount of manpower is needed to build residential units
有人指商界提出輸入外勞，是想節省成本，我其實並不同意。
Some people have pointed out that the business sector has proposed to import labour from other places with the aim of saving cost . I actually do not agree with this notion
因為，聘請一名外地勞工，除了支付基本工資外，亦要聯絡中介、安排交通運輸和住宿，以及處理簽證和保險等雜項。
The reason is that the employment of an imported worker entails not just the payment of a basic salary but also a variety of obligations such as liaison with the intermediary arrangement of transport and accommodation and acquisition of visas and insurance
面對澳門和新加坡等地的競爭，外勞的工資也不能太低。
In the face of competition from Macao and Singapore the wages offered to imported workers should not be too low
我相信不少僱主若非萬不得已，也不願大費周章申請輸入勞工。
I believe that many employers would rather not go to the trouble of applying for importation of labour unless absolutely necessary
代理主席，我亦想強調，輸入勞工的主要目的不是為了與本地工人"爭飯碗"，而是為了香港整體社會發展，避免拖延工程，影響民生。
Deputy President I would like to also emphasize that the main purpose of importing labour is not to compete for jobs with local workers but to promote the overall social development of Hong Kong by preventing delays to works which affect peoples livelihood
相反，輸入勞工可以為香港爭取時間，加快住宅供應，紓緩樓價高企不下的壓力，同時亦可令香港把握發展機遇，加快基建，提升公共服務。
On the contrary the importation of labour can afford Hong Kong more time to expedite housing supply thus alleviating the pressure from the persistently high property prices and enable Hong Kong to seize development opportunities speed up infrastructure construction and upgrade public services
所以，我認為，政府需要從宏觀層面處理勞工問題，避免未來各項基建工程青黃不接。
Therefore I hold that the Government needs to deal with labour issues at a macro level to prevent a succession gap in future infrastructure projects
政府應該踏出果斷的一步，在不影響行業質量和安全的前提下，按照行業實際需要輸入外地勞工。
The Government should take a decisive step forward to import labour according to the actual industry needs provided that both quality and safety are not compromised in the industry concerned
其實，當年香港興建新機場，也在機場人工島上採取封閉式的管理方法，大量輸入外勞。
In fact during the construction of the new airport years ago Hong Kong imported a large number of workers to work on the artificial airport island under closed management
我認為，政府亦可針對政府工程、興建公屋和"明日大嶼"等項目，大刀闊斧地輸入外勞。
I think the Government can also import labour in a bold and decisive manner specifically for such projects as government works public housing development and Lantau Tomorrow
代理主席，香港不能夠再蹉跎歲月了，既然施政報告已經表明會考慮輸入外勞，我們便應該放膽去做。
Deputy President Hong Kong can no longer tolerate delays . Since the Policy Address has indicated that importation of labour will be considered we should muster our courage to put it into practice
我期望社會各界願意在優先保障本地勞工權益的前提下，探討如何合理地輸入外勞，使政府和勞資三方可以達致三贏局面。
I hope that all sectors of the community including the labour sector are willing to explore the proper ways to import labour on the premise that priority is given to protecting the rights of local workers so that the Government the labour sector and the business sector can achieve a triple - win situation
打開今年的施政報告，可以看到"堅定前行"這4個字。
When one opens this years Policy Address one can see the phrase Striving Ahead
所謂"堅定前行"，其實是一意孤行、唯我獨專。
The so - called Striving ahead actually means moving ahead obstinately and autocratically
只要是她林鄭月娥決定了的便要推行，不用諮詢和討論，亦不容磋商，因為她認為這樣做才對香港人最好。
As long as she Carrie LAM has made her decision she need not consult and discuss with anyone else . She allows no negotiation because she thinks that her way is the best for Hong Kong people
大至"明日大嶼"那1,700公頃和花費上萬億元的填海工程，小至我要在這個環節談論的全面禁止電子煙政策，均體現了一意孤行、唯我獨專、不講理的行政霸權。
All matters ranging from major ones as large as the Lantau Tomorrow Vision a reclamation project involving 1 700 hectares of land and trillion - dollar to the minor ones such as the comprehensive ban on e - cigarettes that I am talking about in this session demonstrate her administrative hegemony in moving ahead obstinately autocratically and wilfully
這個辯論環節的政策範疇包括醫療衞生服務，所以我會先就全面禁止電子煙的政策發言。
The policy areas of this debate session include health care services so I will speak on the policy of a total ban on e - cigarettes first
今次推行全面禁止電子煙的政策，事前毫無預告，僅在施政報告發表前1天向傳媒稍作披露，然後便提出要全面禁止電子煙及其他新型吸煙產品，手法較推行"明日大嶼"更加粗暴。
The comprehensive ban on e - cigarettes is launched without any announcement in advance . It was disclosed to the media only one day before the publication of the Policy Address in which a comprehensive ban on e - cigarettes and other new smoking products is proposed . It is implemented even ruder than the Lantau Tomorrow Vision as the latter has at least gone through a fake consultation with the deceptive Task Force on Land Supply
因此，各界沒有太大反應，亦沒有人公開表示堅決反對立法規管。
As the issue might be about the degree of stringency of the regulation only there was not much reaction from different walks of life and no one publicly stated that they opposed the legislation firmly
反過來說，局長，如果當天已說明政府提出的方案包括全面禁止新型吸煙產品，我相信社會的反應一定會更大。
Conversely Secretary if the Government stated on the same day that the proposal put forward by the Government included a comprehensive ban on new smoking products I believe that the response of the community would have certainly been greater
科學上有甚麼突破性的研究，有甚麼權威的研究成果，足以完全扭轉政府的政策方向，由作出規管變成全面禁止？
I also asked what breakthrough had been made in scientific researches and what authoritative research results had warranted a complete reversal of the Governments policy direction from regulation to comprehensive ban
局長當時也無法回答，說明有甚麼突破性的發展和驚天動地的轉變。
The Secretary was unable to give any answer at the time to show any coruscating developments and phenomenal changes
研究當然有很多，而且人言人殊。
There are of course many studies as well as diverse opinions
為何現時卻要全面禁止新興的電子煙產品？
Why is it necessary to ban the emerging e - cigarette products completely now?
你一定不敢，遑論全港禁煙。
I bet that you dare not do so let alone prohibiting smoking all over Hong Kong
所以，即使是於理不合，大家也無可奈何。
Therefore even if it is unreasonable we can do nothing about it
我知道很多民主派議員均支持全面禁煙，但大家要想一想，為了目的而不談道理和原則，支持政府全面禁煙，這與建制派聲稱出於好意而"反港獨"，支持政府不講理地不批出工作簽證予香港外國記者會的副主席，究竟有何不同？
I know that many Democrats support the ban . But everyone must think about this Is there any difference between supporting the Governments total ban on smoking without considering the reasons and principles because of the purpose and the pro - establishment camps supporting the Governments refusal to issue work visa to the Vice Chairman of the Foreign Correspondents Club without justification by claiming that the Government has acted with the good intention of anti - Hong Kong independence?
支持全面禁止電子煙，即是支持林鄭月娥這種只要認為是對年青人有害，便要全面禁止的家長式專權管治思維。
Supporting a total ban on e - cigarettes means supporting Carrie LAMs patriarchal dictatorship under which anything considered harmful to the youth has to be prohibited comprehensively
今天禁止電子煙，明天可以禁止汽水和高糖、高油、高脂的食物。
When e - cigarettes are banned today soft drinks and foods with high - sugar high - oil and high - fat contents can be banned tomorrow
今天為了大家的身體健 康而這樣做，明天也可以為了你的思想和精神健康，而禁止出版某些書籍、報紙，以至其他種種。
When such bans can be imposed for the sake of everyones physical health the publication of certain books newspapers and other stuff can also be prohibited for the benefit of your ideological and mental health
所以，我堅持反對全面禁止電子煙。
Therefore I insist on opposing the total ban on e - cigarettes
代理主席，第三個辯論環節的主題是"改善民生"。
Deputy President the theme of the third debate session is Improving Peoples Livelihood
代理主席，我認為如果要改善民生，政策必須具備數個要點，包括：愛、責任、視野和適時性。
Deputy President in my opinion if we want to improve peoples livelihood our policies must demonstrate love responsibility vision and timeliness
因為看到特區政府普遍給人的感覺是反應過慢。
It is because the SAR Government gives a general impression that it is very slow in taking action
我不是針對現屆政府，這是歷屆政府的通病：議而不決，決而不行，是個談了20多年的情況。
I am not pointing my finger at the current - term Government only as this is a common shortcoming of all previous - terms and the current - term Governments that is making no decision after deliberation and taking no action after making a decision . This has been the situation of the past more than 20 years
這番批評絕不是無的放矢，在房屋供應、土地供應、樓價、租金、人才培訓、創新科技、環保等範疇，坦白說，我們在國際上全部都是落後多於領先。
This allegation is not unsubstantiated . As a matter of fact we are falling behind other countries instead of leading them in coping with housing supply land supply property prices rent talent training innovation and technology and environmental protection
因此，如果要改善民生的話，政府真的要發揮領頭羊的作用。
The Government really needs to take a leading role if it is going to improve peoples livelihood
我們的政府一向奉行"大市場、小政府"，但如果事事要靠市場的話，即等同望天打卦。
Our Government has always followed the principle of big market small government but if we leave everything to market mechanism it means leaving everything to luck
眾所周知，市場的靈魂是謀利，而不是為社會解決問題。
As we all know the driving force of free market is making profits instead of resolving social problems
我相信這份施政報告提出的"明日大嶼"計劃，雖然不免要社會付出成本，但事實上在解決一個長遠的問題，也比較有視野，因為着眼的是20年後的事，所以我們認為值得支持。
In my opinion though Lantau Tomorrow proposed in the Policy Address will inevitably involve some social costs it serves to resolve a long - standing problem and sets a vision looking ahead to 20 years from now . I therefore deem it worth supporting
話說回來，我想談談電子煙的問題。
Now let us return to the issue of electronic cigarettes
一些零售商已簽下租約、另一些購入了大量貨品，你現時要進行規管，其實面對很大困難。
Some retailers have already signed tenancy agreements and some have stocked up a lot . In fact it is very difficult to impose regulation at this point
我不知道局方是否像我們打籃球般，故意fake這個假動作，去fake反對派。當你現時提出有限度管制，反對派便反駁你，反建議實行全禁！
I am not sure whether the Administration is making fake movements to trick the opposition camp as if trying to trick the opposing team when playing basketball expecting the opposition camp to raise objection when a partial regulation is proposed and then the Administration could put forward a counter proposal of a total ban
如果你是這樣想的話，你做得很好，因為已達到了目的，鎖死了他們。
If it were your intention you had done a great job because you had achieved your goal
但我作為提出此事的議員，認為時間才是最重要的考量，這正是我說的"適時性"。
As the first Member who raised this matter I think that timing is the most important consideration . This is what I meant by timeliness
事實上，大家都看到控煙工作在過去30年是有成果的，整體煙民數字逐步下降，任何新產品都只會引來一群新的煙民，這是必需要說清楚的。
As a matter of fact in the last 30 years the tobacco control measures yielded positive results and the smoking population showed a gradual decline . However I must make it clear that new products will always attract new smokers
因此，我希望局方不要再帶我們"坐過山車"，又說"全禁"、又說"有限度規管"，現時又再說"全禁"。
Therefore I hope that the Administration will not take us to ride the roller - coaster by proposing a total ban in the beginning and then turning to partial regulation afterwards and now proposing a total ban again
我希望未來要加快立法，不要再拖，再拖的話，阻力必然更大。
I hope that the Government will expedite the relevant legislative process and stop dragging on otherwise there will be more obstacles
希望你盡快完成這項全禁電子煙的立法工作。
I hope that you will complete the legislative procedures to ban e - cigarettes completely as soon as possible
此外，第二點我想談的是福利可攜性。
Then I would like to speak on welfare portability
在這份施政報告中提到，"福建計劃"和"廣東計劃"目前只容許長者跨境支取"生果金"。
The Policy Address mentioned that under the Guangdong Scheme GDS and the Fujian Scheme FJS elderly people who reside in the two provinces are entitled to fruit grant only
其實在2013年開始落實長者生活津貼時，我們工聯會已經提出要盡快把長生津納入"廣東計劃"和"福建計劃"。
Indeed when the Old Age Living Allowance OALA was launched in 2013 the Hong Kong Federation of Trade Unions FTU already proposed to have OALA covered in GDS and FJS as soon as possible
今次的施政報告正提出類似建議，問題是何時實施。
This Policy Address has proposed a similar measure but the question is when it will be implemented
因為制度已有，長者也決定好了，不會因為加入了長生津而回鄉，反而是你如何使在內地的香港長者能盡快取得長生津。
The system is in place and the elderly people have made their decisions . It is unlikely that any elderly people will move to the Mainland just for receiving an extra amount of OALA . Instead the point is how to allow the Hong Kong elderly who are already residing in the Mainland to receive OALA as soon as possible
其實大家都明白，國家的發展一日千里，生活指數在上升。
As we all know our country is developing rapidly and the cost of living keeps rising
希望局方能加緊進行、加快處理，盡快落實。
I hope the Administration will quicken its pace expedite the process and implement the proposal in a timely manner
此外，不能不提剛才已有很多同事提及的：安老服務不單談金額，也談服務。
In addition I feel compelled to raise another issue which have also been mentioned by some Members earlier on . Elderly care is not just about money but also about services
政府院舍興建緩慢，人所共知，也是"神仙難變"，所以要覓地、覓地、覓地，其實要回答任何問題都必須覓地。
It is well known that the progress of the construction of Governments residential care homes for the elderly is very slow and even a deity cannot resolve the situation . What we need is land . Again and again land supply is the key to resolve many issues
坦白說，我明白你不是魔術師，不能立即解決困難，但問題是明知這些安老院舍的服務、床位不足時，其他補救措施是否應該大力推行呢？
I understand that you are not a magician who can solve the difficulties right away . The point is that when the inadequacy of residential care services and places for the elderly is well known why are other remedial measures not implemented actively?
剛才很多同事談過居家安老。
Several members have spoken on ageing in place
居家安老的工作做了多少呢？
How much effort has been exerted in this area?
有否鋪排好如何面對越來越多的長者呢？
Is there any plan to cater for a growing elderly population?
很希望政府能拿出這種視野。
I hope the Government will set its vision in this regard
說到底，其實改善民生需要處理很多很多問題，很多很多訴求，這是可以理解的。
After all it is understandable that to improve peoples livelihood there are many issues to be addressed and many aspirations to be met
但政府的工作正是要面對這些訴求，解決這些問題。
But it is the Governments responsibility to meet these aspirations and address these issues
因此，我再一次強調，希望特區政府真正能夠讓市民大眾看到它的魄力，看到它對社會的愛、責任，具備視野和適時性這幾個要點，使我們的城市真正成為一個宜居城市。
I therefore emphasize once again that I hope the SAR Government will show the public its determination and commitment its love and responsibility for the community its vision and timeliness in its actions so as to make our city a truly liveable city
代理主席，在下一個環節我會就宜居城市，多談房屋和其他與生活相關的內容。
Deputy President in the next session I will speak more on housing and other aspects of life regarding the topic of Liveable City
主席，這個環節討論的範疇是土地、交通及環境，我想先談土地問題。
President this debate session is about land transport and environment and I would like to discuss the land problem first
面對市民對房屋的殷切需求，自由黨並不反對政府整合現時零散的棕地，甚至發展棕地，但我必須重申，絕大部分棕地上的作業須是用於支持其他行業的發展，例如堆場是支持港口運作、車輛維修是支援運輸業、重型機械則是支持建造業等；顯而易見，棕地上的運作均是不可或缺的。
In the face of keen demand for housing from the public the Liberal Party does not object to the Governments proposal of integrating scattered brownfield sites and even developing these sites . However I have to reiterate that the operations on brownfield sites must mostly support the development of other industries . For instance container depots are for supporting harbour operation vehicle repairs are for supporting the transport industry while heavy machinery is for supporting the construction industry
因此，政府必須妥善安置現時在棕地上的作業者，我指的安置不是單單賠償了事，他們希望政府可以尋找替代土地，讓他們能夠繼續營運。
It is obvious that the operations on brownfield sites are indispensable . Therefore the Government must accommodate the existing operators on brownfield sites . In accommodating them I do not only refer to compensation as they hope that the Government can look for alternative sites for them to continue their operations
雖然政府正研究利用多層樓宇安置部分棕地上的作業者，但有部分作業例如重型機械安放、建築用的預製件和堆場等，也是難以搬遷上樓的。
Although the Government is studying the accommodation of some operators on brownfield sites in multi - storey buildings some operations for example the storage of heavy machinery and pre - fabricated parts for construction usage container depots and the like can hardly be moved upstairs
因而，政府必須協助他們尋找替代土地。
The Government thus has to assist them in finding alternative sites
我們要知道，棕地出現經濟活動，主要原因是其租金低廉。
We should bear in mind that the emergence of economic activities on brownfield sites is mainly due to their low rental prices
因此，如果政府日後真的興建多層樓宇以安置棕地上的作業，其租金必須是經營者可以負擔的。
Therefore if the Government really builds multi - storey buildings to accommodate the operations on brownfield sites the rental prices must be affordable to the operators
政府應該以產業發展政策作為租金水平釐定的考慮，倘若日後替代土地是以短期租約租予棕地作業者，其租期必須有較長年期，這樣才可以吸引作業者作較長遠的投資。
The Government should take the industrial development policies into consideration when deciding on the rental level . If alternative sites are rented to operators operating on brownfield sites in future on short - term leases the rental period must be longer so as to attract long - term investment by operators
政府不應再以價 高者得，而應該以作業者的經驗和對經濟發展的貢獻作考慮點，一旦必須翻標，政府應該考慮訂立一項"轉手費"，而不至於令原作業者投資的基礎建設，例如土地平整、供電系統和重型運作機械等化為烏有。
Instead of awarding tenancy to the highest bidder the Government should consider the operators experience and contributions to economic development . In case re - tendering is needed the Government should impose a fee for transfer so that the investment made by the previous operator in basic infrastructure construction such as land formation electricity supply system and heavy operational machinery will not come to naught
