現時督導小組的職權範圍已擴闊至不僅包括發展局，局長會否為督導小組訂下時間表，例如每年處理多少項工作？
As the terms of reference of the Steering Group has now been expanded to include tasks involving other bureau other than DEVB will the Secretary formulate a timetable requiring the Steering Group to say complete a certain number of tasks each year?
感謝謝議員的補充質詢。
I thank Mr TSE for his supplementary question
如果要簡化管制，我們須考慮的地方很多，因為所涉及的工作並非處理一件貨物。
If control has to be streamlined we have to consider a number of factors because the work to be dealt with is not an object
主席，政府在本財政年度已預留超過84億元，用於採購及為市民接種2019冠狀病毒病疫苗。
President the Government has earmarked over 8.4 billion in the current financial year for procuring Coronavirus Disease 2019 vaccines and administering them to members of the public
另一方面，近年不時有人質疑接種疫苗的效用及安全性，這股"反接種疫苗"思潮或會打擊市民接種新冠疫苗的意欲。
On the other hand queries concerning the efficacy and safety of vaccination have been raised from time to time in recent years and such anti - vaccination thinking may dampen the publics desire for being administered the COVID - 19 vaccines
代理主席，就林健鋒議員質詢的各部分，我的綜合回應如下： 根據世界衞生組織及衞生專家的意見，2019冠狀病毒病在未有有效療法及疫苗前，將不會消失。
Deputy President my consolidated reply to the various parts of the question raised by Mr Jeffrey LAM is as follows According to the views of the World Health Organization WHO and health experts COVID - 19 will not vanish without an effective treatment method and vaccine
儘管現時仍未有疫苗獲監管機構正式批准於人體身上應用，特區政府已採取雙管齊下的策略，為全港市民採購符合安全、效能和質素要求的疫苗，考慮的候選疫苗包括內地及海外研發或生產的疫苗。
Although no vaccine has yet obtained approval from regulatory authorities for human application the Hong Kong SAR Government has adopted a two - pronged approach to procure vaccines meeting the criteria of safety efficacy and quality for the Hong Kong population . The candidate vaccines under consideration include those developed or manufactured in Mainland of China and overseas
在雙管齊下的策略下，我們一方面已參與由世衞牽頭的新冠疫苗全球獲取機制，採購供應本港35%人口的疫苗劑量，作為照顧社會中最脆弱群組的需求的安全網。
Under the two - pronged approach we have on the one hand joined the COVAX Facility led by WHO to procure vaccine doses for 35 % of the Hong Kong population as a form of safety net to cater for the needs of the most vulnerable groups in society
另一方面，我們會與個別疫苗製造商簽訂預先採購協議，以獲取更多供應。
On the other hand we will enter into advance purchase agreements APAs with individual vaccine developers with a view to procuring additional supplies
我們的目標是透過預先採購協議，採購至少兩款來自不同疫苗製造商及不同疫苗平台的候選疫苗，劑量將足以供應最少全港人口的兩倍。
Our goal is to procure at least two candidate vaccines from different vaccine developers and different vaccine platforms under APAs . The doses procured would serve at least twice the Hong Kong population
在簽訂預先採購協議時，我們會參照相關科學實證和臨床數據，並諮詢衞生署轄下相關科學委員會及專家顧問團的意見，疫苗的安全、效能和質素將會是我們選購疫苗的首要考慮，同時我們亦會考慮疫苗的研發進度、所採用的技術，以及實際情況和限制，例如物流、疫苗的儲存及冷鏈管理方法等。
When entering into APAs we will make reference to the relevant scientific evidence and clinical data and consult the views of the relevant Scientific Committees under the Department of Health DH and expert groups . The safety efficacy and quality of the vaccines will be the priority factors for consideration in procurement . At the same time we will also consider the development progress of the vaccines the technology used and practical circumstances and limits such as logistics storage of the vaccines and cold chain management etc
在積極預先採購新冠疫苗的同時，香港藥劑業及毒藥管理局及衞生署將優先處理有關疫苗的註冊申請，務求在確保疫苗的安全、效能和質素要求的大前提下，加快審批程序。
While proactively procuring COVID - 19 vaccines the Pharmacy and Poisons Board of Hong Kong and DH will accord priority to applications for registration of the relevant vaccines with a view to expediting the approval process while ensuring the safety efficacy and quality of the vaccines
由於2019冠狀病毒病疫情屬公共衞生緊急事故，政府的優先考慮是為全港市民採購及接種安全及有效的疫苗，並會視乎需要考慮採取一切必要措施，容許緊急使用任何經證明安全及有效的疫苗，現階段不會排除在必要時進行緊急立法的可能性。
In view that the COVID - 19 epidemic is a public health emergency the Governments priority is to procure and administer vaccines which are safe and effective for our population . Depending on need we will consider implementing all necessary measures to enable the emergency use of vaccines which have been proven to be safe and effective . At this juncture we do not rule out the possibility of emergency legislation in times of need
接種疫苗對本港回復正常生活至為重要，根據科學委員會的建議，我們的目標是為全港市民提供疫苗。
Administration of vaccines is key to the resumption of normal life for Hong Kong . Having regard to the suggestion of the Scientific Committees our goal is to provide vaccines for the entire Hong Kong population
優先接種疫苗的組別預計約300萬人，由於需要在短時間內為大量市民提供疫苗，我們正考慮不同的方案，讓市民以自願性質接種，並擬免費為市民接種疫苗。
The priority groups for vaccination is expected to be around 3 million people . In view that we need to provide vaccination for a large population within a short period of time we are considering various solutions . We will enable members of the public to be vaccinated on a voluntary basis and propose to provide the vaccination free of charge
政府已預留1,000萬元進行推廣工作，將透過不同渠道加強宣傳教育，並適時澄清不實的謠言和虛假消息，以提高公眾對新冠疫苗的效能和安全性的認識。
The Government has earmarked 10 million for promotion and will strengthen publicity and education through various channels . We will also suitably clarify rumours and misinformation so as to increase the publics understanding of the effectiveness and safety of COVID - 19 vaccines
據了解，疫苗研發商現階段主要與各地政府直接商議，透過預先採購安排為各地政府預留疫苗以便進行大規模接種計劃，政府不排除邀請私營醫療機構參與計劃協助接種，但現階段並不存在協助私營醫療機構自行採購疫苗為顧客接種的問題。
Our understanding is that as of now vaccine developers are mainly in direct negotiation with various Governments with a view to reserving vaccines for them through advance purchase arrangements so as to support large scale vaccination programmes . While we do not rule out inviting private healthcare organizations to participate in the programme to help with vaccination we do not see the need of helping private healthcare organizations procure vaccines on their own to serve their clients at this stage
2019冠狀病毒病疫情肆虐全球，疫苗研發商以前所未見的速度於多個地區開展臨床試驗。
The COVID - 19 epidemic is wreaking havoc around the world and vaccine developers are launching clinical trials in various regions at unprecedented speed
隨着臨床試驗的使用者數據及免疫反應陸續發布，我們能掌握更多有關不同種類新冠疫苗的安全、效能及質素資料，包括各疫苗在不同年齡組別的效能、有效期、劑量、相隔接種的時間及不良反應等。
With user statistics and immunization responses of participants of the clinical trials gradually becoming available we can obtain more information on the safety efficacy and quality of the various COVID - 19 vaccines including their efficacy across different age groups effective period dosage time between each doses and adverse reactions etc
政府會密切留意新冠疫苗的研發，以及香港和世界各地的疫情發展，同時亦會參考屆時世衞的相關指引。
The Government will closely monitor the development of COVID - 19 vaccines and the epidemic situation in Hong Kong and around the world . At the same time we will make reference to relevant guidelines promulgated by WHO
林健鋒議員，你只可提出一項補充質詢，而我認為你已提出你的補充質詢。
Mr Jeffrey LAM you can only ask one supplementary question and I think that you have already raised your supplementary question
代理主席，行政長官在施政報告中指出，中央會支持香港確保新冠疫苗供應，在有需要時，預留一定數量的內地研發或生產的疫苗供香港市民使用。
Deputy President as pointed out by the Chief Executive in her Policy Address the Central Government supports Hong Kong in ensuring the supply of COVID - 19 vaccines and will reserve a certain amount of vaccines developed or produced in the Mainland for use by Hong Kong people when necessary
代理主席，我已經提供最新資訊。
Deputy President I have provided the latest information
林議員的主體質詢第二部分是：會否豁免在本港或境外已接種獲世界衞生組織認可新冠疫苗的人士遵守入境檢疫規定，以便利跨境往來？
Part 2 of Mr LAMs main question is whether persons who have been administered either in or outside Hong Kong those COVID - 19 vaccines recognized by WHO will be granted exemption from quarantine requirements upon entry into the territory so as to facilitate cross - boundary flow of people
我較早前已經回答，現時有11款疫苗已進入第三階段臨床實驗，但仍未有疫苗獲監管機構正式批准於人體身上應用。
I have answered earlier that 11 vaccines had entered Phase 3 clinical trial but no vaccine has yet obtained approval from regulatory authorities for human application
代理主席，我想替林議員問清楚，現時很多市民關心通關問題，特區政府又遲遲不肯進行全民檢測，不知何時才能截斷隱形傳播鏈。
Deputy President I would like to find out more about the issue for Mr LAM . Many people are very concerned about the cross - boundary flow of people . The SAR Government has been reluctant to conduct universal testing and we do not know when the invisible transmission chain can be severed
行政長官在施政報告中指出，當局曾與中央政府接觸，亦知道中央政府會支持香港確保新冠疫苗供應，在有需要時，預留一定數量的內地研發或生產的疫苗供香港市民使用。
The Chief Executive has pointed out in the Policy Address that the authorities have contacted the Central Government and are aware that the Central Government supports Hong Kong in ensuring the supply of COVID - 19 vaccines and will reserve a certain amount of vaccines developed or produced in the Mainland for use by Hong Kong people when necessary
局長，其實兩位議員均很具體地提出問題。
Secretary in fact the two Members have specifically raised their questions
如你有補充，請直接並具體地答覆。
If you have anything to add please reply directly and specifically
代理主席，多謝陸頌雄議員的補充質詢。
Deputy President I thank Mr LUK Chung - hung for his supplementary question
政府留意到有傳媒報道，國家研發並批准使用的疫苗無法在香港醫療體系使用。
The Government has noted the media report that vaccines developed and approved by our country cannot be used in the Hong Kong healthcare system
我們已發出新聞稿，指有關報道未有如實全面反映事實，可能構成特區現有藥物規管制度針對內地疫苗的偏頗印象，我們對此深表遺憾。
We have issued a press release stating that the relevant reports have not truthfully and comprehensively reflected the facts and may create a biased impression that Mainland vaccines have been targeted against under the existing regulatory regime for drugs of the SAR . We feel regrettable about the report
香港既定的藥物規管框架及註冊制度由來已久，一直行之有效，並自2015年開始進一步強化及優化，確保香港市民獲得有效、有質素及安全的藥物。
The regulatory regime and registration system for drugs have been established in Hong Kong for a long time and have been proven effective
代理主席，中央表示全力支持香港特區融入粵港澳大灣區發展及國家發展大局。
Deputy President the Central Authorities have expressed full support for the integration of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region into the development of the Guangdong - Hong Kong - Macao Greater Bay Area and the overall development of the country
另一方面，香港邊境地帶多年來發展滯後，與僅一河之隔、高廈林立的深圳形成鮮明對比。
On the other hand the development of the border zone of Hong Kong has lagged behind for years striking a stark contrast with Shenzhen which is located just a river apart and packed with high - rise buildings
此外，邊境地帶設有堆填區、墳場、廚餘處理廠等厭惡性設施，加上欠缺交通接駁，以致發展受局限。
Moreover the presence of obnoxious facilities such as landfills cemeteries and food waste treatment plants in the border zone coupled with the lack of transport links has constrained the development of the zone
就此，政府可否告知本會： 一會否改變政策，不再在邊境地帶興建或擴建厭惡性設施，並將現有設施縮小規模；如會，詳情為何；如否，原因為何；二有否研究可如何充分發揮邊境地帶的發展潛力，以達到與深圳"優勢互補"的作用，例如建設核心商業區；如有，詳情為何；及三有否與中央及相關部委，探討香港可如何利用邊境地帶土地，參與大灣區的發展？
In this connection will the Government inform this Council 1 whether it will change its policy by ceasing the construction or expansion of obnoxious facilities in the border zone and downsizing the existing facilities; if so of the details; if not the reasons for that; 2 whether it has studied how the development potential of the border zone can be fully realized so as to achieve complementarity of advantages with Shenzhen such as by establishing a core business district; if so of the details; and 3 whether it has explored with the Central Authorities and the relevant ministries how Hong Kong may utilize the land in the border zone in its participation in the development of the Greater Bay Area?
當中香 港和深圳這兩座毗鄰城市的關係尤為密切。
In this connection Hong Kong and Shenzhen two cities adjacent to each other have a particularly close relationship
在粵港澳大灣區的發展策略下，中央政府大力支持港深合作建設國際科技創新中心。
Under the development strategy of the Guangdong - Hong Kong - Macao Greater Bay Area the Central Government strongly supports the cooperation between Hong Kong and Shenzhen in developing an international innovation and technology hub
在規劃香港的空間布局時，我們會全力配合這些發展方針。
In planning the spatial layout of Hong Kong we will endeavour to fully incorporate these development directions
事實上，在全港發展策略《香港2030+：跨越2030年的規劃遠景與策略》研究當中，建議在邊境地區發展"北部經濟帶"。
In fact in the study of territorial development strategy under Hong Kong 2030 Towards a Planning Vision and Strategy Transcending 2030 a northern economic belt is proposed in the border areas
經濟帶從西面的落馬洲一直延伸至蓮塘/香園圍，適合作科研、現代物流、倉儲及新興行業，當中不少是政府早年經檢視邊境禁區土地後釋放出來的土地。
The proposed economic belt extends from Lok Ma Chau in the west to LiantangHeung Yuen Wai and is suitable for research and development modern logistics warehousing and other emerging industries . A considerable portion of the land within the belt is those released from the frontier closed area FCA after the Governments review in earlier years
上文提及的"北部經濟帶"，涵蓋現有7個過境通道，而落馬洲河套地區的港深創新及科技園，以及《香港2030+》建議的新界北策略增長區都位處這條發展軸之上，這兩項發展涉及約190公頃原本屬於邊境禁區的土地，稍後我會進一步闡述。
The above mentioned northern economic belt covers seven existing boundary crossings while the Hong Kong - Shenzhen Innovation and Technology Park in the Lok Ma Chau Loop as well as the strategic growth area in the New Territories North NTN proposed in the Hong Kong 2030 study also fall on this development axis . These two developments involve approximately 190 hectares of the original FCA land . I will further elaborate on this later
就質詢的各個部分，經諮詢相關政策局及部門後，我現答覆如下： 一 政府為廢物和污水處理或殯葬設施等選址時，會根據一套專業及全面的準則找尋最合適的地點，進行環境、生態、規劃、交通等方面的評估，並提出必須的緩解措施，以確保選址不會對周邊環境造成不可接受的影響，而選址亦須通過相關的法定規劃或環境評估程序。
After consulting the relevant Policy Bureaux and departments my reply to the various parts of the question is as follows 1 In identifying sites for waste and sewage treatment or funeral facilities the Government will adopt a set of professional and comprehensive criteria for identifying the most suitable locations and conducting the relevant environmental ecological planning traffic etc . assessments . Necessary mitigation measures will be recommended to ensure that the identified sites will not cause unacceptable impacts to the surrounding environment
政府並沒有既定政策特意把這些設施集中在邊境地區；個別設施座落接近邊境的地區只是因為地點合適。
Furthermore the sites have to undergo relevant statutory planning or environmental assessment processes . The Government has no established policy to intentionally group these facilities in the border areas . It is only due to suitability of the locations that individual facilities are established in areas close to the border areas
位處新界北接近邊境的這類大型處理設施包括新界東北堆填區和正在興建的廚餘處理設施，它們主要用作處理來自新界東北的都市固體廢物和廚餘。
Such large - scale treatment facilities situated in NTN near the border include the North East New Territories NENT landfill and the food waste treatment facilities under construction . These facilities are mainly used for processing municipal solid waste and food waste originating from NENT
廢物和污水處理設施不是新界北獨有，在其他主要地區均有不同類型設施以應付區域性需求。
Waste and sewage treatment facilities are not unique to NTN as there are various kinds of facilities in other major areas to meet the demands of the districts
現代化的廚餘處理設施都採用全密封式設計，以及配備過濾及淨化空氣設施，因此不會對附近環境構成影響。
The modern food waste treatment will adopt fully enclosed design and be equipped with air filtering and purifying facilities; and therefore will not impact on the surrounding environment
政府正逐步落實一系列的轉廢為能、減廢及廢物處理措施，以減低以堆填處置廢物的需要。
The Government is progressively implementing a series of waste - to - energy waste reduction and waste disposal measures in order to reduce the need for disposing waste by landfill
當位於石鼓洲旁的綜合廢物管理設施於2025年投入運作之後，亦將有助減少運送至堆填區的廢物量。
The commissioning of the Integrated Waste Management Facilities near Shek Kwu Chau in 2025 will also help reducing the bulk of waste to be delivered to landfills
至於殯葬設施，經過多輪地區諮詢後，政府只會在沙嶺墳場現有範圍內興建擬議的靈灰安置所、火葬場和殯儀館設施。
As for funeral facilities after several rounds of local consultations the Government will construct the proposed columbarium crematorium and funeral facilities only within the existing Sandy Ridge Cemetery
該項目現正分階段推展，其中靈灰安置所發展項目將於2021年完工，涉及工程費用超過18億元。
The project is being implemented in phases of which the columbarium development will be completed in 2021 involving a project cost of over 1.8 billion
二及三 在進行土地規劃時，我們會充分考慮如何善用邊境地區或跨境基建附近地點的地理優勢，以把握區域發展如大灣區所帶來的經濟機遇。
2 and 3 In the course of land planning we will fully consider ways of leveraging the geographical advantages of border areas or locations near cross - boundary infrastructures in order to seize the economic opportunities brought by regional development such as the development of the Greater Bay Area
就商業區而言，位於新界西部的洪水橋/廈村新發展區，由於它可經深圳灣口岸，方便到達深圳西部如前海，加上擬議的洪水橋鐵路站，我們會把這區發展為新界西部的商業中心區，提供超過200萬平方米的商業樓面面積及約75,000個商業就業機會。
As far as commercial district is concerned we will develop the Hung Shui KiuHa Tsuen New Development Area NDA in the western New Territories into a commercial hub of the western New Territories because of its easy access to the western part of Shenzhen such as Qianhai via the Shenzhen Bay Port and the proposed Hung Shui Kiu Railway Station . This NDA will provide more than 2 million sq m of commercial floor area and about 75 000 job opportunities
新發展區的首批工程已經展開，目標是在2038年完成整個新發展區工程。
The first batch of works for NDA have already commenced and the works for the entire NDA is targeted for completion by 2038
港深政府共同規劃和建設深港科技創新合作區的深圳園區和位於落馬洲河套的香港園區，實現"一國兩制"下，位處"一河兩岸"的"一區兩園"。
The Governments of Hong Kong and Shenzhen jointly plan and develop the ShenzhenHong Kong Innovation and Technology Co - operation Zone which comprises the Shenzhen Innovation and Technology Zone and the Hong Kong - Shenzhen Innovation and Technology Park the Park at the Lok Ma Chau Loop with a view to establishing one zone two parks at one river two banks under the auspices of one country two systems
憑藉香港園區的地利優勢，園內企業得以利用深圳的強大生產設施進行大量生產，以及拓展龐大的內地市場，擴大發展規模及提升經濟效益。
With the geographical advantage of the Park enterprises therein can leverage on Shenzhens strong production facilities for mass production and tap into the huge Mainland market thereby expanding their development scale and enhancing their economic benefits
當局正向立法會就相關的建築及基建工程申請撥款，並爭取在2024年落成第一批樓宇。
Funding approval is being sought from the Legislative Council for the relevant building and infrastructure works with the aim of completing the first batch of buildings in 2024
此外，當局會與深圳市政府展開研究在深圳新皇崗口岸採用"一地兩檢"安排，以釋放香港落馬洲管制站超過20公頃現時屬邊境禁區的土地作其他用途。
Besides the Government will explore with the Shenzhen Municipal Government on the implementation of co - location arrangements at the new Huanggang Port in Shenzhen so as to release over 20 hectares of land in Hong Kongs Lok Ma Chau Control Point which is now part of FCA for other uses
初步估計這3個具發展潛力地區共可帶來215,000個就業機會，以及255,000至350,000人口，涉及發展用地約720公頃。
Based on preliminary estimation the three PDAs can bring about a total of 215 000 job opportunities and accommodate a population of around 255 000 to 350 000 involving around 720 hectares of development area
當局已就新田/落馬洲發展樞紐開展可行性研究，並爭取明年為這個發展樞紐進行詳細設計，以及為其餘兩個具發展潛力地區進行規劃及工程研究。
The Government has commenced the feasibility study of San TinLok Ma Chau Development Node and will endeavour to carry out the detailed design for the Development Node as well as conducting the planning and engineering studies for the other two PDAs next year
為邊境地區進行規劃時，我們不會忽略毗鄰深圳的發展。
In the course of land planning for the border areas we will not lose sight of the development of the neighbouring Shenzhen
事實上，兩地政府有不同渠道就跨境交通、環保等事宜作交流。
In fact the two Governments have put in place various channels for interchange on such issues as cross - boundary transport and environmental protection
舉例來說，規劃署和深圳市規劃和自然資源局每年會定期會面，就雙方的規劃工作交換意見。
For example the Planning Department of Hong Kong and the Planning and Natural Resources Bureau of Shenzhen Municipality will meet regularly on a yearly basis to exchange views on each others planning work
主席，多屆特首都說要推動大灣區發展，林鄭特首更在今年的施政報告中提及要與深圳加強合作，實踐"一河兩岸、一區兩園"。
President previous Chief Executives had all talked about the need to promote the development of the Greater Bay Area and in this years Policy Address Chief Executive Carrie LAM indicated her intention to strengthen cooperation with Shenzhen in order to establish one zone two parks at one river two banks
局長剛才亦提到要讓深港兩地關係更趨密切，規劃香港空間布局時會全力配合，支持港深合作建設國際科技創新中心，又說在規劃邊境發展時不會忽略深圳的發展。
Just now the Secretary called for closer ties to be forged between Shenzhen and Hong Kong and said that in planning the spatial layout of Hong Kong every effort would be made to work with Shenzhen to create an international innovation and technology hub . He also said that the development of Shenzhen would not be ignored in the course of land planning for the border areas
我這樣說是因為政府將一些厭惡性設施設在深港發展區的中心位置，例如骨灰龕、廚餘廠、堆填區等。
I make this remark because the Government has placed obnoxious facilities such as columbaria food waste treatment plants and landfills at the centre of the Shenzhen - Hong Kong Development Areas
我剛才已指出，整個邊境地區的面積超過2,800公頃，其實邊境地區有邊境地區的需要。
The border zone as I pointed out just now covers a total area of over 2 800 hectares and it has its own needs of facilities
環境局副局長，請答覆。
Under Secretary for the Environment please reply
這份協議的內容多元多樣，我舉出一些例子，包括：跨界基礎設施的建設及通關便利化、港珠澳大橋、粵港澳大灣區鐵路網規劃、香港機場第三跑道建設、提升深港陸路口岸功能。
The Agreement covers a variety of topics including cross - boundary infrastructure development and clearance facilitation; the Hong Kong - Zhuhai - Macao Bridge; railway network planning in the Guangdong - Hong Kong - Macao Greater Bay Area; construction of the Three - Runway System in the Hong Kong International Airport; and enhancement of the functions of the ShenzhenHong Kong land boundary control points
但是，目前已經有機制，讓各項發展上的要求，滲入到不同的政策局及部門。
A mechanism has been put in place to ensure that various development requirements will be incorporated into Policy Bureaux and departments
我剛才問的是，局長會如何令前線官員或其他政策局的官員在規劃上體現深港發展觀......
Just now my question is How will the Secretary ensure that frontline officials or officials of other Policy Bureaux will implement the philosophy of Shenzhen - Hong Kong development in the course of land planning
蓮塘/香園圍是新界北發展區其中一部分，將用作發展現代化工業園。
It is planned that the LiantangHeung Yuen Wai area which forms part of the NTN development will be constructed into a modern industrial park
主席，政府過往在規劃土地時，一直視新界邊境地區為偏遠地區，用來安置堆填區、大型墳場及工業區等厭惡性設施。
President in planning the use of land in the past the Government had always regarded the frontier areas in the New Territories as remote areas for the relocation of obnoxious facilities such as landfills large cemeteries and industrial estates
在大灣區的建設及國家的"雙循環"戰略脈絡，再配合"十四五"規劃下，新界的邊陲地區應是深港兩地的核心區，成為香港融入國家發展的橋頭堡，政府必須重新審視及規劃新界的土地。
However in view of the development of the Greater Bay Area the Mainlands dual circulation strategy and the 14 Five - year Plan the outskirts of the New Territories should become the core districts of Shenzhen and Hong Kong as well as the bridgehead for Hong Kongs integration into the national development . It is essential for the Government to review and re - plan the land use in the New Territories
我想政府回應一下，會否用新思維規劃邊境用地，包括開放沙頭角墟的禁區，打造成大灣區的商業旅遊區；縮小龍鼓灘的填海範圍，遷移這些污染性工業，將屯門打造成為商住社區，與深圳蛇口的前海對接；並撤回在沙嶺墳場興建20萬個骨灰龕位的超級殯儀城，改為發展有利香港融入大灣區的項目？
I would like the Government to respond to the following questions Will it adopt a new mindset in planning the development of the border zone including opening up the Sha Tau Kok FCA to be developed into a commercial and tourism hub for the Greater Bay Area; downscaling the reclamation works at Lung Kwu Tan and moving polluting industries away from the area so as to transform Tuen Mun into a commercial and residential district to connect with Qianhai in Shekou Shenzhen; and withdrawing the large - scale columbarium development at Sandy Ridge Cemetery which involved the construction of about 200 000 niches and instead developing projects that will facilitate Hong Kongs integration into the Greater Bay Area?
主席，我申報，我是龍鼓灘村的村代表，家族亦在新界擁有土地。
President I declare that I am a representative of Lung Kwu Tan Village and my family owns properties in the New Territories
新界北新市鎮分為3個小區，合共佔地720公頃。
The NTN New Town which comprises three districts covers 720 hectares of land in total
龍鼓灘和屯門西是"明日大嶼願景"的一部分，政府稍後會將相關文件交予工務小組委員會討論。
Both Lung Kwu Tan and Tuen Mun West form part of the Lantau Tomorrow Vision and relevant documents will be later submitted to the Public Works Subcommittee for consideration
古洞北、粉嶺北的規劃已經完成，正在進入建設階段。
The planning of the Kwu Tung NorthFanling North NDAs has completed and the construction works will commence soon
我們已開始規劃新田/落馬洲區，希望明年可以就其他兩區展開規劃研究，有進一步消息的時候，我會向何議員報告。
We have commenced planning for the San TinLok Ma Chau Development Node and we hope to carry out the planning studies for the other two PDAs next year . If there is any update I will inform Dr HO accordingly
