黃議員竟然要求議員不要發言及不要認真工作，是在閹割立法會的權力，有違他就任立法會議員時的宣誓，因為誓詞說明要盡忠職守。
In asking Members not to speak and not to earnestly perform this duty Mr WONG sought to castrate the powers of the Legislative Council in contravention of the oath that he took when assuming office as a Member of the Legislative Council for the oath expressly requires a Member to act conscientiously and dutifully
盡忠職守是甚麼意思？
What is meant by acting conscientiously and dutifully?
《基本法》第七十三條表明立法會行使的職權包括"就任何有關公共利益問題進行辯論"。
Article 73 of the Basic Law provides that the powers and functions exercised by the Legislative Council include [debating] any issue concerning public interests . The original motion in question precisely concerns public interests
此項原議案正是涉及公眾利益，黃議員要求其他議員不要發言，即要求大家不要盡忠職守，而他根據《議事規則》第401條提出中止待續的議案，亦是要求議員不要辯論有關港珠澳大橋香港口岸的附屬法例。
In asking other Members not to speak Mr WONG was asking them not to act conscientiously and dutifully . And in moving the adjournment motion under RoP 401 he was asking Members not to debate the subsidiary legislation relating to the HZMB Hong Kong Port
主席，基於以上不同的理由，我不能夠接受黃國健議員的中止待續議案。
President in view of the various reasons stated above I cannot accept Mr WONG Kwok - kins adjournment motion
或許這樣說，我可以接受，只要建制派撤回對《議事規則》的修訂。
Maybe I should put it this way I can accept it as long as the pro - establishment camp withdraws its amendments to RoP
代理主席，首先，我希望公眾知道，現在黃國健議員根據《議事規則》第401條提出的中止待續議案是中止甚麼？
Deputy President first of all concerning Mr WONG Kwok - kins motion under Rule 401 of the Rules of Procedure that the debate be now adjourned I want the public to know what he is trying to adjourn and if his adjournment motion is passed what objective consequence it will bring forth
十三項附屬法例的察悉，除了包括4項有關港珠澳大橋啟用後會引入的新法例，還有9項涵蓋面非常廣闊，包括定額罰款、道路交通、道路交通、道路交通的另一項規定我不全部讀出客觀效果就是，很多議員已就這些察悉作準備，希望發言，但並不能夠進行。
Concerning these 13 pieces of subsidiary legislation apart from four new regulations which will be enforced upon the commissioning of the Hong Kong - Zhuhai - Macao Bridge there are nine pieces of subsidiary legislation with very wide coverage including regulations on Fixed Penalty Road Traffic Road Traffic and another regulation about Road Traffic ―I am not going to read them all out―the objective consequence is that for many Members who have made some preparation work on these pieces of subsidiary legislation and want to speak on them they will not be able to do so
黃國健議員剛才說，他是為《議事規則》第401條平反，因為第401條過去本來是讓民主派及反對派用來"拉布"的，今天他便引用第401條來反"拉布"，減低或消滅我們針對這13項附屬法例的發言機會。
Just now Mr WONG Kwok - kin said that his purpose is for Rule 401 of the Rules of Procedure RoP to be vindicated . Because in the past RoP 401 has been used by the democratic camp and the opposition camp as a tool for filibustering but today RoP 401 is invoked by him to counter the filibuster to reduce or stifle our speaking opportunities on these 13 pieces of subsidiary legislation
其實，我覺得他是為了另一件事平反，為了甚麼？
In fact I think he is for the vindication of another matter . What is it?
坊間有一句"順口溜"，叫作"民建聯最無耻"代理主席一定不喜歡聽但今天，其實他想為這句說話平反。
There is a catchy phrase in the community The most shameless DAB―Deputy President surely does not like it―But today he actually wants to have this phrase vindicated
他想公眾覺得這句話並不對，應該是"工聯會更無耻"。
He wants the public to think that this phrase is not right but should be The more shameless FTU
陳志全議員已作出澄清。
Mr CHAN Chi - chuen has already made a clarification
所以，我不知道其他建制派有否想過發言。
I do not know whether other pro - establishment Members have ever thought of speaking on this motion
陳志全議員，請稍停，有議員提出規程問題。
Mr CHAN Chi - chuen please hold on . A Member has raised a point of order
我認為陳志全議員在發言時以"希特拉"和"大屠殺"指責其他議員，言詞極不恰當。
I think the language in the speech of Mr CHAN Chi - chuen is grossly inappropriate as he cited HITLER and the Holocaust when criticizing other Members
陳志全議員，你是否指提出議案的議員是"希特拉"？
Mr CHAN Chi - chuen did you refer the Member who moves this motion as HITLER?
陳志全議員，請清楚指出你是否指黃國健議員"比希特拉還要兇狠"？
Mr CHAN Chi - chuen please explain clearly whether you are saying that Mr WONG Kwok - kin is more atrocious than HITLER?
我剛才發言時說，黃國健議員因為看不順眼一個人，即涂謹申議員的發言，他聽不明白或覺得他胡說八道，於是引用《議事規則》第401條，不讓其他所有人發言，我便說他是扼殺了所有想發言議員的發言機會，這樣他便較希特拉更兇惡，好像大屠殺一樣，是的，我有說過"大屠殺"3個字。
As I said earlier it is only because of Mr WONG Kwok - kins dislike of the speech of one Member ie . Mr James TO claiming that he could not understand what Mr James TO was saying or he felt that Mr James TO was talking nonsense that he invoked RoP 401 so that all other Members are denied of the chances to speak . I then said that he was stifling all the speaking opportunities of those Members who wanted to speak and he was more atrocious than HITLER who started the Holocaust
陳志全議員已表示，他剛才用的是比喻，並願意收回"大屠殺"一詞。
Mr CHAN Chi - chuen says that he was using a metaphor earlier and is willing to withdraw the word Holocaust
規程問題，我覺得你容許這個先例，這個比喻便能無限說下去，便會把《議事規則》中，議會的用詞和對冒犯的定義完全扭曲了。
A point of order I think if you set this as a precedent this metaphor can be mentioned many times in the following debate and this will totally distort the definitions in the Rules of Procedure on the expressions and offensive language used in the Council
希望代理主席有比較準確的裁決。
I hope that Deputy President can make a more appropriate ruling
過去，主席或代理主席都會用一種方法，就是聆聽這次究竟有多少位議員想發言，我不知道，我問有沒有人想發言，沒有人理睬我，我也擔心我發言完畢後，沒有其他議員發言。
In the past the President or the Deputy President would adopt a listening approach―I have no idea how many Members want to speak . I asked whether there are Members who want to speak but no one responded to my question . I am also worried that after I have spoken no other Member will speak
但是，如果有十多二十人發言，來來去去也是說這些論據，主席便會作出他的裁決，這亦是行之有效的裁決。
However if there are 10 to 20 Members speaking on this motion but they are repeating their arguments the President will make a ruling . This has been an effective approach
客觀的事實是怎樣呢？
What is the objective fact?
我想各位市民都很清楚。
I think the public have a very clear picture
這其實是猜測議員動機，他建基於一個錯誤的動機，或者不合乎《議事規則》的動機而提出。
He is in fact speculating on the motive of other Members or is based on a wrong motive or a motive not in line with the Rules of Procedure in moving this motion
我想跟公眾說，建制派不能夠控制在地區直選和功能界別中有過半數議員，但現在是一個非常時期，在補選之前他們有控制權，他們為所欲為，做甚麼也可以，他們可以修改《議事規則》，他們不修改《議事規則》也可以，因為他們每次可以通過任何議案，根據第401條提出的也好，根據第91條提出的也好，可以調動議程、廢除議程、阻止議程、阻止議員，連議員真心誠意希望進入一項議題發言，立此存照的機會都可以扼殺。
They can propose to amend or not to amend the Rules of Procedure . It is because any motion moved by them no matter under RoP 401 or RoP 91 can be passed . They can thus adjust the order of the agenda items abolish or suspend the agenda items stop Members from speaking and even stifle the opportunities of Members to speak sincerely on a motion and have their views put into record
最後，我當然知道這項議案會獲得通過。
Finally I surely know that this motion will be passed
但是，希望各位市民看清楚，我們不可以讓建制派的權力無限運用、讓建制派濫權，我們一定要撥亂反正。
However I hope that members of the public can understand clearly that we cannot let the pro - establishment camp have indefinite power or abuse the power excessively . We must bring order out of chaos
我們不是辯論生效日期，沒有輸贏之分也不用表決。
We are not to debate the commencement date . There is no winning or losing and there is no need to vote
第一，違反議會精神。
First it is against the spirit of the Council
議會其中一項很重要的職能是制衡和監察政府。
One of the very important functions of the Council is monitoring and providing checks and balances against the Government
如政府要求議會再次通過這些法案或附屬法例，便可能要與立法會妥協，改善相關法案。
If the Government requests this Council to endorse the bill or subsidiary legislation again it may have to make a compromise with this Council to improve the relevant legislation
因此，我們就法案及附屬法例，甚至政府動議的"一地兩檢"議案動議中止待續議案，都是基於議會精神，希望監察及制約政府，彰顯議會應有功能。
Hence when we moved an adjournment motion regarding a bill or subsidiary legislation or even the Governments motion on the co - location arrangement we acted in accordance with the spirit of this Council in the hope of monitoring the Government and keeping it in check so as to manifest the due functions of the Council
如果今天成功將"察悉議案"的辯論中止待續，不會導致相關的附屬法例及《公告》不能實施，《公告》仍會在明年1月8日生效。
If the debate on the take - note motion is adjourned today the relevant items of subsidiary legislation and the Notice will still be implemented . The Notice will still take effect on 8 January next year
因此，不會達致我們早前多次就法案或附屬法例動議中止待續議案的效果。
Hence these adjournment motions will not achieve the same effect as those moved by us on a number of bills or subsidiary legislation earlier
這項中止待續議案的唯一功能是，令議員不能就《公告》發言，不能進入實體辯論。
The only effect of this adjournment motion is to stop Members from speaking on the Notice or engaging in a substantial debate
這項中止待續議案故意削弱議員就律師會新規則發言的最後機會。
This adjournment motion purposely deprives Members of the last chance to speak on Law Societys new rules
雖然《公告》涉及律師會的運作，但議員仍有責任監察這個專業組織的新規則。
Although the Notice is concerned with the operation of Law Society Members still have the responsibility to monitor the new rules of this professional organization
今天動議中止待續議案的議員是以議員身份，剝奪議會就這個專業組織的新規則反映問題及意見，發揮議會監察職能的最後機會，突顯這名動議中止待續議案的議員對議會精神全無認識。
In his capacity as a Member the mover of todays adjournment motion Ir Dr LO Wai - kwok has deprived this Council of the last chance to reflect the problems of and their views on Law Societys new rules and perform its monitoring duty . This shows that the mover of the adjournment motion Ir Dr LO Wai - kwok knows nothing whatsoever about the spirit of this Council
今天的中止待續議案違反言論自由。
Todays adjournment motion breaches the freedom of expression
十分有趣的是，議會理應是最有言論自由的地方，我們在《立法會條例》的保護下可以暢所欲言，免受刑責。
It is very interesting to note that this Council is supposedly the place that allows the greatest freedom of expression . Under the protection of the Legislative Council Ordinance we can speak freely without having to worry about the liability
正如主席所說，議員所說的話可以不是事實，這就是言論自由的可貴。
As the President once said what Members said might not be the facts . This is the commendable part of the freedom of expression
但是，今天建制派在地區直選及功能界別中均佔過半數，他們1位議員發言後，便說要按程序處理，動議中止待續議案，不准我們進入實體辯論。
However today the pro - establishment camp is the majority of both the geographical constituencies and functional constituencies . After one Member had spoken they moved an adjournment motion according to the procedure barring us from engaging in a substantial debate
有關規定是被取消大律師資格的大律師，如果希望成為律師，可向律師會提出申請，要求豁免。
The requirements are concerned with a disbarred barrister who wishes to become a solicitor must meet before applying to Law Society for exemption
他們根據實習律師合約受僱前，須取得香港大律師公會執行委員會的證明書。
Before they are employed under a trainee solicitor contract they must obtain a certificate from the Bar Council of the Hong Kong Bar Association
其實，議員應該可以在任何時間、任何階段針對某項法例發言。
Members should be allowed to speak on any piece of legislation at any time and at any stage
好像這項《公告》，即使我沒有能力作出修訂，只有察悉的機會，都可以表達意見。
For instance as regards the Notice even though I am not in a position to propose any amendments as long as I have the chance to take note of it I can present my views
無論條文多麼簡單，議員隨時可能會發現一些新問題，如果發現問題，便有責任把握機會在議會反映。
No matter how simple the provisions are Members may find new problems anytime . If problems are found Members are duty - bound to seize any opportunity to reflect them to the Council
此外，我沒有加入小組委員會，但後來有市民向我反映意見，表示希望我用最後機會向政府提出。
Besides even if I did not join the subcommittee maybe some people told me their views afterward and hoped that I could seize the last chance to raise them with the Government
這樣，沒有加入小組委員會的議員，是否就不能夠暢所欲言？
As such for Members not joining the subcommittee does it mean they cannot speak their mind freely?
這個邏輯有很大問題，我希望大家以後不要用這把尺去批評在任何階段想表達意見的議員。
This logic is highly problematic . I hope that Members will not use this as a yardstick to criticize any Members who wish to present their views at any stage
這就是剝奪議員履行在議會反映民意、反映問題的基本權利。
Members are thus deprived of their basic right to reflect public views and problems in this Council
主席，尹兆堅議員說了幾次即將說完，我有好幾次預備起來發言，剛才他才終於說完。
President Mr Andrew WAN said a few times that he would stop and I almost stood up for a few times to speak . Now he has finally completed his speech
主席，敝黨黨友郭榮鏗議員剛才表示支持黃國健議員動議的中止待續議案，我與他意向一致，我亦承接他剛才所說，希望有條件支持黃議員的議案。
President Mr Dennis KWOK a colleague from my political party said he would support the adjournment motion moved by Mr WONG Kwok - kin . As we both have the same intent I will pick up from where he stopped just now and I also wish to support Mr WONGs motion conditionally
希望在稍後小休時，建制派議員能夠考慮一下。
I hope that the pro - establishment Members will consider our proposal during the break later on
主席，立法會真是一個非常有趣的地方，議員立場不同，同一番說話及同一個行為，上星期可能由泛民議員去說去做，而本星期則輪到建制派議員去說去做。
President the Legislative Council is a very interesting place . Members having different positions made certain remarks and took certain actions . Last week it was the pan - democratic Members who made such remarks and took such actions and this week the pro - establishment Members take their turn
政治可能從來都是一個有趣的遊戲。
Perhaps politics has always been an interesting game
不過，無論政治是遊戲也好，是把戲也罷，請容許我花少許時間，大讚特讚今次建制派的悍將、工聯會的大旗手、立法會的一位資深議員黃國健議員的睿智。
However whether politics is a game or a trick allow me to spend a few minutes to highly praise Mr WONG Kwok - kin―an unyielding fighter from the pro - establishment camp the standard - bearer of The Hong Kong Federation of Trade Unions FTU and a senior Member of the Legislative Council―for his wisdom
大家不妨想一想，自今屆會期開始，我們這邊少了6位同事，而建制派，無論是地區直選或功能界別的議員，都佔大多數，即他們在任何情況下投票都會贏。
Just think since the beginning of this legislative session we have lost six colleagues on our side while the pro - establishment camp is the majority in terms of Members returned by geographical constituencies through direct elections and by functional constituencies . That means they will win in any voting
個多月前，民主派議員就"一地兩檢"議案"拉布"，竟然沒有一位建制派同事想到好像今天黃國健議員般，引用《議事規則》第401條中止辯論，結果"一地兩檢"這項無約束力的議案遲了足足一個月才能通過，令林鄭特首灰頭土臉，顏面無存。
More than a month ago democratic Members filibustered in respect of the motion on the co - location arrangement but no one from the pro - establishment camp thought of invoking Rule 401 of the Rules of Procedure RoP to adjourn the debate as what Mr WONG Kwok - kin did today . In the end the passing of the non - binding motion on the co - location arrangement had been delayed for a whole month causing great embarrassment to Chief Executive Carrie LAM and she was thoroughly discredited
就上月而言，建制派同事的確是辦事不力。
The pro - establishment colleagues were indeed incompetent last month
必須承認，前哨戰有這充滿智慧的一着，的確有少許打亂我們的陣腳。
I must admit that the skirmish is wisely conducted and has somehow caught us by surprise
不過，話說回來，我也想提一提黃國健議員，動議中止待續議案，是較討論那13項附屬法例容易。
However back to the subject I wish to remind Mr WONG Kwok - kin that it is easier to move an adjournment motion than discuss the 13 items of subsidiary legislation
我希望建制派議員明白，對於民主派而言，我們戰意絕對高昂，不會輕易束手待斃。
I hope the pro - establishment Members will understand that we the democrats have great fighting spirit and we refuse to surrender
不要以為人力車與你跟我沒有甚麼關係，可能只與遊客有關。
One of the issues involved is rickshaws . Do not assume that rickshaws have nothing to do with you and me and are only concerned with tourists
今次增加牌費，政府要求收回成本，當然無可厚非。
The Government wants to recover the cost by increasing the licence fees
但影響所及，卻是一位活生生的香港人，而實際上只是跟一位活生生的香港人有關。
It is certainly not unreasonable but it will affect one living Hong Kong citizen . In fact that decision is only related to one living Hong Kong citizen
根據《修訂規例》，人力車車輛牌照複本費由12元增至20元， 人力車的車輛牌照費由50元加到61元。
According to the Amendment Regulation the fee of a duplicate vehicle licence for a rickshaw is increased from 12 to 20 and the fee of a vehicle licence for a rickshaw is increased from 50 to 61
只增加幾元，對尊貴的建制派議員來說，完全不屑一提。
The Honourable pro - establishment Members will certainly not bother with an increase of a mere few dollars but there is one person in Hong Kong who will be affected
但我想說的是，原來現在有一位香港人受到影響，就是洪伯伯，他今年67歲，拉了半世紀人力車，他有10多輛人力車停泊在附近的7號碼頭天橋底，當中只有3輛已領牌，可以在街道上行走。
That person is Uncle HUNG a 67 - year old man who has been pulling rickshaw for half a century . He owns a dozen or so rickshaws which are parked under the footbridge close to Pier No . 7 not far away from here
根據他現身說法，是因為沒有生意，即使偶爾有客人坐在他的車上，也只是擺姿勢拍照，間中會有遊客乘坐一段很短的路程。
According to him there is no business . Occasionally a customer will sit on his rickshaw to pose for photos or travel on the rickshaw for a very short distance
他最大的心願，是將一輛輛他視作寶貝的人力車賣給外國的收藏家。
His biggest wish is to sell each of his cherished rickshaws to foreign collectors
根據運輸署《運輸資料年報》，全港只有3輛人力車已領牌，換言之，洪伯伯是香港目前唯一一位人力車車夫，亦是唯一一位擁有人力車車牌的人，即是說，這項《修訂規例》竟然是針對一位香港人。
According to the Annual Transport Digest published by the Transport Department there are only three licensed rickshaws in Hong Kong . In other words Uncle HUNG is the one and only rickshaw puller in Hong Kong and he is also the one and only holder of a rickshaw licence . In other words the Amendment Regulation just targets one Hong Kong citizen
今次這件事反映出甚麼？
What does this reflect?
經常來回添美道的觀光巴士，其實是一個最大的反諷，明明有一輛貨真價實的人力車可以供人乘坐，卻有一輛大巴士接載遊客。
The biggest irony is that there is a sight - seeing bus frequently shuttling to and fro Tim Mei Road while genuine rickshaws are available to carry tourists but the job is done by a big bus instead
我想帶出的是，今次所牽涉的13項附屬法例中，一項毫不起眼的規例的其中一項條款，有關的改動亦是毫不起眼，但原來卻影響了一位香港人。
I wish to point out among the 13 items of subsidiary legislation involved in the motion an inconspicuous amendment in a provision of an inconspicuous regulation has an impact on one Hong Kong citizen
我們對人力車的態度是甚麼？
What is our attitude toward the rickshaw?
究竟我們是否完全不應在議事廳內就這類問題作出辯論？
Should we not discuss this kind of issue in this Chamber?
因此，我們覺得這事值得辯論一下，我們認為應該珍惜我們的時間，在這裏跟公眾討論一下。
Hence I think this issue is worth discussing and we should cherish our time and discuss it here with the public
當然，談保育、談旅遊，可能扯得很遠，但我相信，政府官員亦有責任向公眾解釋，究竟對看似毫不重要，又微不足道的人力車，究竟政府的政策是甚麼？
Of course issues about conservation and tourism can stray too far from the subject but I believe government officials are also duty - bound to explain to the public the government policy on rickshaws which are seemingly unimportant and insignificant
究竟政府有甚麼策略協助保留這項香港特色，好讓香港能繼續擁有這種幾近絕跡的交通工具？
Does the Government have any policy to help conserve this unique feature so that this almost extinct means of transport will continue to exist in Hong Kong?
因此，為何我們會說，這次中止待續的議案絕對不是大家聽起來很簡單的一件事。
Therefore that is why this adjournment motion is absolutely not a simple matter as it sounds
當然，容許我重複剛才郭榮鏗議員所說，我們很希望可以支持黃國健議員動議的中止待續議案，條件是建制派能放下屠刀，令議會回復正常運作。
Of course allow me to repeat what Mr Dennis KWOK said earlier which is we very much hope that we can support Mr WONG Kwok - kins adjournment motion on condition that the pro - establishment camp will forsake their hostility to let this Council return to normal business
因此，我希望建制派能夠考慮一下郭榮鏗議員剛才提出的條件，盡快讓議會回復正常運作，盡快讓政府回復正常。
Hence I hope that the pro - establishment camp will consider the conditions offered by Mr Dennis KWOK to resume the normal operation of this Council and the Government as soon as possible
我相信建制派絕對不會希望這情況繼續下去，我亦不相信每一位建制派議員，他們進入立法會的初心，並非只來聽人家發言，他們沒可能只想聽楊岳橋在這裏胡說八道，他們絕對應該將自己的人生經驗、智慧和熱情投入議會事務，投入不同的法案審議工作中。
I believe that the pro - establishment camp definitely does not wish to see this situation continue and I also believe that each Member of the pro - establishment camp did not join the Legislative Council with the intent of merely listening to other Members speak . They cannot possibly just want to listen to Alvin YEUNGs nonsense . They surely want to contribute their experience in life wisdom and passion to Council business and engage in the scrutiny of various bills
他們豐富的人生經驗，絕對可以令法案的審議更完美。
Their rich life experience will definitely improve the bills concerned
不過，一個楊岳橋說完，還有很多比楊岳橋更長氣的議員在後面。
However after Alvin YEUNG has finished speaking more Members who are more long - winded than Alvin YEUNG will follow
因此，在最後剩下1分多鐘的時間，我只希望很認真地說一說，其實，建制派最終可能修訂《議事規則》，但是否代表他們以後不用坐在這裏聽民主派議員發言？
Hence in the remaining one minute or so I just wish to make the following remark seriously the pro - establishment camp may eventually amend RoP but does it mean they will no longer have to sit here listening to the speeches made by democratic Members?
不是的，因為我們的智慧會隨着《議事規則》的改變而提升，而我們亦會很努力在《議事規則》的夾縫中找到我們的空間，而這些空間到了最後必然引領的後果，就是建制派議員將繼續要坐在這裏聽民主派議員發言。
No our wisdom will grow with the amendment of RoP and we will try hard to find our room of existence in the gaps of the amended RoP . Given our room of existence the inevitable outcome is that pro - establishment Members still have to sit here listening to speeches made by democratic Members
無須多謝我，蔣議員，這是我們的責任，亦是我們的榮幸。
You do not have to thank me Dr CHIANG . This is our duty and honour
主席，我希望建制派議員察悉此事，我知道很多建制派議員其實是知道的，我這番話不只是要告知建制派議員，同時亦要告知背後要求他們加大力度盡快修訂《議事規則》的人或機構。
President I hope pro - establishment Members will take note of this . I know that many pro - establishment Members are actually aware of this fact . My words are not only directed to pro - establishment Members but also to those people or organizations pushing pro - establishment Members to make more effort to amend RoP expeditiously
成功修訂《議事規則》只是一時之勝，但會令議會不能繼續順暢運作，這代價非常沉重。
Their success in amending RoP will give them a sense of victory for a fleeting moment but consequently the Council will never be able to operate smoothly as it was and that is a very dear price to pay
我希望他們深思熟慮。我希望最終黃國健議員的議案不獲通過。
I hope that they will give serious consideration and I also hope that Mr WONG Kwok - kins motion will be negatived in the end
但是，本來這項中止待續議案，應該跟我們是否察悉港珠澳大橋這數項附屬法例相關，跟是否"拉布"無關。
But the adjournment motion should be related to our taking note or otherwise of the several items of subsidiary legislation in relation to the Hong Kong - Zhuhai - Macao Bridge . They have nothing to do with filibustering
許議員，你已清楚提出你的規程問題。
Mr HUI you have made your point of order clearly
主席剛才已批准黃國健議員提出中止待續議案，而有關議案亦合乎規程。
Just now the President has approved Mr WONG Kwok - kins adjournment motion and the relevant motion is moved in accordance with the procedure
剛才已有數位議員表明，並清楚解釋為何支持黃國健議員提出的中止待續議案，甚至有民主派議員也表示支持，原因是大家都知道"拉布"並非好玩和好受的事情，而且浪費議會時間。
Just now a number of Members have stated and clearly explained why they support the adjournment motion moved by Mr WONG Kwok - kin . Even some Members from the pro - democracy camp have also indicated support . The reason is that as known to all filibustering is neither fun nor pleasurable and is a waste of the Councils time
為甚麼有時候有些議員會被迫奮起抵抗？
Why were some Members forced to resist from time to time?
因為有議員要修訂《議事規則》。
Because some Members wanted to amend the Rules of Procedure RoP
剛才有議員說得很正確，不管是黃國健議員或王國興，其實沒有分別，他們都是扮演"重炮手"，同樣是極端民粹，只懂指責別人"拉布"不正確，但卻沒有想過自己在做些甚麼助紂為虐，修訂《議事規則》，自我削弱議會監察政府的功能。
Just now a Member was so right in saying that be it Mr WONG Kwok - kin or WONG Kwok - hing it makes no difference at all as both of them are extreme populists and political heavyweights; they only censure others for filibustering without thinking of their act―helping the evildoer to amend RoP to the effect of undermining the function of this Council to monitor the Government
我知道他們是想為那些人爭取權益，不想法案這麼快獲得通過，於是便積極"拉布"。
I understand that they did so for the interests of those traders hoping that their active participation in filibustering would delay the passage of the bill as far as possible
多謝他揮手示意在席，並請他們稍後解釋有否在法案委員會會議上"拉布"；如果有，為何他們可以為自己所代表的某個社群的利益而站起來"拉布"，並且無限次發言？
I thank him for waving his hand to indicate his presence at that meeting . I would like to invite those Members to elucidate later on whether they had filibustered at that Bills Committee meeting; if they had why were they allowed to filibuster speaking for unlimited times to fight for the interests of a certain group of people?
在法案委員會會議上，陳恒鑌議員和邵家輝議員的發言次數最多，完全不限次數，而主席對他們也很好，沒有限制他們的發言時間。
At the meeting of the Bills Committee concerned Mr CHAN Han - pan and Mr SHIU Ka - fai spoke most frequently for an unlimited number of times . Moreover the Chairman being very kind to them did not impose any limitation on the speaking time
他們是在消磨時間，阻止法案提交立法會通過。
They merely sought to prolong the discussion time to prevent the tabling of the bill to this Council for passage
公眾看得很清楚，我不怕公開猜測他們的動機，因為他們必定是這樣想。
Members of the public should be able to see very clearly and I have no fear of making an open speculation on their motives as I bet they certainly think this way
議會內議席的分布代表着不同的黨派，而其中一部分是代表民意的。
The seats of this Council are distributed among various political parties and some seats represent public opinion
