法庭認為，香港目前沿用契約註冊制度，業權以管有為基礎，而並非以註冊為基礎，契據文件的註冊只作記錄而非保證業權。
The court considered that under the deeds registration system currently in operation in Hong Kong title to land is possession - based and not registration - based . A registered deed only serves as a record but not a guarantee of title
法庭亦指出，逆權管有機制多年來在處理土地業權問題時發揮實際作用，同時鼓勵業權人維護其土地權利和善用其土地，因此符合公眾利益，並沒有抵觸《基本法》保障的私有財產權。
The court also pointed out that the mechanism of adverse possession has been instrumental in tackling land title issues over the years while encouraging landowners to safeguard their land rights and to make good use of their land . Therefore the mechanism is considered to meet the public interest and does not contravene the right of private ownership of property as protected by the Basic Law
佔用他人土地是否涉及刑事責任，必須考慮個案的具體情況，不能一概而論。
Whether occupation of someone elses land is criminally liable depends on the circumstances of individual cases and cannot be generalized
如果有證據顯示有人透過違法行為， 例如刑事毀壞或詐騙，侵佔本來屬於他人的私人土地，有關人士的行為很可能涉及刑事責任。
If there is evidence showing that one occupies the land of someone else through illegal acts the acts of such persons may likely be criminally liable
佔用人及業權人均須遵守香港法律。
Both land occupiers and owners should abide by the laws of Hong Kong
二 取得逆權管有權的人士，他得到的只是土地的管有權而並非業權。
2 An adverse possessor only obtains a possessory title but not the title to the land
他可以使用有關土地或出售這個使用權，這類交易與一般土地交易手續相若，在市場上亦偶有這類交易。
He may make use of the land or sell to others such right to use of the land . This kind of transactions have formalities similar to that of other land transactions in general and are occasionally seen in the market
當政府需要收回土地進行發展或透過市區重建局進行重建時，可引用《收回土地條例》及其他相關法例，將土地收回及歸還政府，土地是否被逆權管有並不影響政府行使收地的法定權力。
When the Government needs to resume a piece of land for development or for redevelopment via the Urban Renewal Authority URA it can invoke the Lands Resumption Ordinance Cap . 124 or other relevant legislation to resume the land and revert it to the Government . Whether the land has been adversely possessed or not does not affect the statutory powers that the Government can exercise for land resumption
被收回土地權益的人士，包括業權人及取得逆權管有權的人士，均可按法定機制向政府申領補償。
Persons whose land interests have been so extinguished including the landowners and the adverse possessors may claim compensation from the Government in accordance with the statutory mechanism
對於私人發展而言，發展商在收購已獲法庭頒布被逆權管有的土地時，除了要向業權人提出收購其在土地文書上顯示的業權外，亦要向逆權管有人提出收購他的土地管有權，或許這類土地收購相對來說會變得較為複雜，但事實證明並非不可行。
As far as private developments are concerned when acquiring land which has been adversely possessed as declared by the court developers have to acquire the possessory title to the land from the adverse possessor in addition to the land title as stated on the land instrument from the landowner . While such kind of land acquisition may be relatively more complicated it has been proven that this is not impossible
三 2006年，香港法律改革委員會成立小組委員會，檢討香港的逆權管有規則。
3 In 2006 the Law Reform Commission LRC appointed a Sub - committee to review the rule of adverse possession in Hong Kong
小組委員會其後於2012年就其初步建議進行公眾諮詢，其後於2014年發表報告書，向政府提出最終建議。
In 2012 the Sub - committee conducted a public consultation on its tentative recommendations and subsequently published a report in 2014 to submit its final recommendations to the Government
對於現有逆權管有法律條文應否保留，大部分在公眾諮詢提交意見的人士均贊成保留。
As to whether the existing laws of adverse possession should be retained most of those submitting their views in the public consultation agreed that the existing laws should be retained
雖然有個別意見認為現有法律對業權人造成不公，但經審慎考慮香港的情況，包括目前仍實施契約註冊制度、新界土地界線因舊日測量問題而可能出現糾紛，以及法庭過往已裁定逆權管有符合《基本法》，小組委員會建議現有條文應予保留，因為可以為部分土地業權問題提供解決方案。
Although some individual views considered the existing laws unfair to landowners after careful consideration of the situation in Hong Kong including the deeds registration system still in operation the possible disputes in land boundaries in the New Territories due to surveying methods in the past and that adverse possession has been held by the court to be consistent with the Basic Law the Sub - committee recommended that the existing provisions be retained since they offer a solution to some of the land title problems . In addition the Sub - committee was of the view that the laws of adverse possession should be reviewed upon implementation of the title registration system introduced by the Land Titles Ordinance Cap . 585 in the future
同時，小組委員會認為，逆權管有的法律應在日後推行經《土地業權條例》引入的業權註冊制度後再重新審視，例如可引入機制，要求佔用人事先申請註冊，並讓有關土地的註冊業權人獲得知會及有機會提出反對，只有在註冊業權人沒有提出反對的情況之下，才讓佔用人透過逆權管有註冊成為新業權人，以配合業權註冊制度下加強保障土地業權的目標。
For example a mechanism may be introduced to require the occupiers to apply for registration in advance for the registered owners of the land to be notified and given a chance to object and the occupiers can only register as the new owners through adverse possession if no objection is heard from the registered owners . This complements the objective of strengthening the protection of land titles under the title registration system
於其他普通法司法管轄區，普遍有逆權管有法律，適用於未實施業權註冊制度的土地上，對於已實施業權註冊制度的土地，有些國家廢除逆權管有法律，有些國家則保留法律但作出適當的修訂。香港現時尚未實施業權註冊制度，保留逆權管有的法律與其他普通法地區的做法相當一致。
Laws of adverse possession are commonly found in other common law jurisdictions and are applicable to land not registered under a title registration system
主席，剛才局長的答覆說，即使有逆權侵佔，亦不會影響政府發展土地，但我想說的是，政府都是一個受害者。
President the Secretarys reply just now says that even if a piece of land is being adversely possessed it will not affect the Governments plan to develop the land . However I wish to say that the Government is also a victim
事實上，這些逆權侵佔個案，成為很多人在新界搶奪土地的幫兇，間接鼓勵別人霸佔土地。
In fact these adverse possession cases have become a helping hand to many people who snatch a lot of land in the New Territories and indirectly encouraged people to occupy others land
所以，我想問政府是否應該徹底廢除逆權管有條文呢？
So may I ask the Government whether the provision on adverse possession should be completely repealed?
我先就有關市建局的項目作回應。
First I will respond to the part on URA projects
如果市建局的項目之中有物業被逆權侵佔，而有關的逆權管有人成功取得法庭的命令，裁定他獲得有關物業的管有權，政府考慮提出收購建議時，亦會以有關物業的良好業權為收購基礎。
If a person has adversely possessed a property in a URA project and that this adverse possessor has successfully applied for a court order declaring that he or she has acquired the possessory title of the property in question the Government will in making the acquisition proposal consider whether the property has a good title as the basis of its acquisition
如果屬於這類收購情況，市建局通常會附加一些特別條件，以減低市建局收購有關管有權時面對的風險，包括有關人士需要向市建局提供一個為期5年、以收購價50%計算的保證金或銀行保證書。
In this type of acquisition URA will in general add special conditions to lower its risk in acquiring these possessory titles . For instance the adverse possessors are required to provide URA with a five - year security deposit or bank guarantee calculated at 50 % of the acquisition price
當然，市建局面對 這些情況，需要做的工夫會多了，時間或許也會長了，但並不是做不到，市建局亦會努力做好相關的工作。
But certainly URA will have to do extra work in handling these cases and the time required may be longer but it is not unachievable . URA will strive to handle these cases properly
大家回看法改會當時的諮詢，大部分人士均贊成保留逆權管有條文。
If we refer to the consultation conducted by LRC most people agreed that the provision on adverse possession should be retained
因此，未來的方向是，當業權註冊制度，即香港法例第585章實施後，我們會引入更多機制，當業權出現逆權管有時，註冊業權人會收到通知，亦會有合理的機會讓他提出反對，這是目前我們的看法。
So our future direction is that when the title registration system is implemented that is when Cap . 585 is in operation we will introduce more mechanisms to enable the registered owners to be notified when their properties are adversely possessed; and there will be a chance for the owners to reasonably raise their objection
問題就在於這個業權註冊制度。
The question lies in this title registration system
至於數量有多少，我們查看過往10年，由這些新土地引申出的註冊，10年間約有30多萬宗，即每年平均3萬宗，在第10年佔土地註冊處處理的總量約兩成。
Regarding the quantity with reference to registrations over the past 10 years there were roughly 300 000 - odd new land registrations meaning an average of 30 000 registrations per year which accounted for about 20 % of the total number of registrations handled by the Land Registry
主席，多謝劉國勳議員提出這項質詢。
President I thank Mr LAU Kwok - fan for proposing this question
當然，我同意局長剛才所說的立法初衷是要保障逆權管有人、經濟活動等，但問題是這項法例有很多不完善的地方，導致這項條例被濫用，成為槍桿子瞄準業權人。
But of course I agree with what the Secretary just said . The legislative intent is to protect adverse possessors and provide certainty for economic activities . But the problem is that with its many flaws the ordinance has been abused and used as a tool to target at landowners
主席，政府可否考慮在年期或入紙申請逆權侵佔的門檻上略為調整，並作檢討呢？
President can the Secretary consider slightly adjusting the number of years and the threshold on filing applications for adverse possession and conduct a review?
就逆權管有的情況對於某些業權人造成困難，我們是知悉的。
We are aware that some landowners have encountered problems related to adverse possession
但是，正如我剛才在主體答覆及我答覆劉國勳議員的補充質詢時提到，因為香港在逆權管有方面，無論在成文法、普通法和案例方面均有很深厚的歷史，所以任何更動都必須小心。
However as I said in my main reply and in my reply to Mr LAU Kwok - fans supplementary question just now Hong Kong has a profound history in adverse possession in terms of statue law common law and case law . Thus any changes must be made with care
近年真的比較廣泛地審視逆權侵佔的是法改會，他們審視多年後，於2014年向政府提出最終建議。
In recent years it was LRC which had extensively reviewed the rule of adverse possession . After years of review it submitted its final recommendations to the Government in 2014
主席，主體答覆第三部分中特別提到，應先審視經《土地業權條例》引入的業權註冊制度。
President it is specifically mentioned in part 3 of the main reply that the title registration system to be introduced by way of the Land Titles Ordinance should be reviewed first . Just now I listened to the Secretarys follow - up reply to this question
我剛才聽到局長跟進回答這個問題時表示，業權註冊制度可能先適用於一些新批土地，我不知有否聽錯，如果是這樣，我恐怕他們是否對焦錯誤呢？
He says that the title registration system may first be applied to newly granted land . I do not know if I have heard it right . If I have I am afraid they have wrongly put the focus
因為新批土地當然容易處理，但問題其實很多是在於那些舊有的土地，或積存已久的土地，長久以來也無法處理。
Newly granted land is certainly easy to be tackled . But it is the old land or accumulated cases over a long period of time that are having problems or unable to be tackled
周議員沒有聽錯，我們會先用於新批土地，但我們並不認為這是對焦錯誤，我們整體的想法是先易後難。
Mr CHOW heard it right . We will first apply the system to newly granted land but we do not think this is a wrong focus . Our overall intention is to apply it to the easy ones first and then the difficult ones
主席，我首先要多謝田北辰議員的修正案，他的修正案豐富了我原議案的內容，特別增加了青年就業的內容，亦增加了大灣區的元素，所以我們也支持這項修正案。
President first I need to thank Mr Michael TIEN for his amendment . His amendment particularly the addition of employment for young people and the element of the Greater Bay Area has enriched my original motion . We will thus support this amendment
特別的是田北辰議員作出修訂時，沒有刪去我原議案的措辭，所以我們認為他也很明白為何我要提出這項議案。
When Mr Michael TIEN amended my motion he did not delete the wordings of my original motion . We thus think that he understands why I propose this motion
相對一些同事剛才的發言，他們就着我的原議案或田北辰議員的修正案提出的用詞，顯示他們似乎沒有田北辰議員般認真研究我的原議案。
As for colleagues who just spoke on the wordings of my original motion or Mr Michael TIENs amendment it seems that they have not studied my original motion as seriously as Mr Michael TIEN has
所以，我會支持田北辰議員的修正案，亦希望各位議員真的要看清楚我們的字眼，不要誤解原意，這本來是一件好事，只是因為自己沒有看清楚字眼、不清楚用意而選擇棄權，令這項議案或修正案未能通過，這是我們議會的遺憾。
Also I hope that Members will seriously study the wordings of my motion so as not to misunderstand its original meaning . This is meant to be something good . If Members abstain from voting due to a lack of clear understanding of the motion wordings or intention and the motion or the amendment is ultimately vetoed it will be a regret for this Council
主席，第一，我的議案有兩個重點，就是要制訂具體目標和採取果斷措施，希望政府能夠做到這兩點。
President first there are two key points in my motion which are to formulate specific targets and adopt decisive measures . I hope the Government can achieve these two points
不過，很可惜，在剛才兩位局長的發言中，我都聽不到政府有何具體目標或採取甚麼果斷措施解決社會矛盾，消弭貧富差距。
Regrettably in what the two Secretaries have just said I could not find any specific targets or decisive measures the Government will formulate or adopt to resolve the conflicts in the community and eradicate the disparity between the rich and the poor
第二，剛才我看到田北辰議員的修正案都不能通過，我相信我的原議案都將會是同樣命運，這實在令人非常遺憾。
Second I notice that Mr Michael TIENs amendment has not been passed by this Council just now . I believe my original motion will have the same fate . This is regrettable indeed
如果連這樣的議案也得不到這群愛國者的支持，那麼我真的很擔心，日後怎樣解決香港的深層次問題和矛盾？
I have not used these words . If a humble motion like mine still cannot secure the support of the patriots here I am truly worried how we are going to resolve the deep - seated problems and conflicts in Hong Kong
如果翻看那"五個善於"，其中一個"善於"是要有戰略的思維和宏闊的眼光。
If we refer to the five essential qualities one of them is to have strategic thinking and a broad vision
是否敢於為他們衝破各種在社會政治生態中的痼疾？
Do you have the courage to eradicate the various chronic diseases in the socio - political ecology for them?
有這個膽量才是愛國者，才可以治港，才可以參與社會的發展。
Only if you have this courage are you considered a patriot who is eligible to administer Hong Kong and take part in its development
如果連這樣一項解決貧富差距問題的議案都得不到立法會通過，如果我們連弱勢社群面對那種不對等的待遇，我們也不願意扶他們一把，這個議會如何向社會交代？
If we do not even endorse in this Council a motion on resolving the disparity between the rich and the poor and if we are not even willing to help the disadvantaged to counter these inequalities how could this Council be accountable to the community?
這個議會如何向中央交代？
How could it be accountable to the Central Government?
夏主任已說明"五個善於"、"四個期盼"， 我們做了甚麼呢？
Director XIA has already put forth five essential qualities and four expectations . What have we done?
主席，提到香港的深層次矛盾，這個議題已討論很多年，由溫家寶總理的年代開始討論至今。
President the subject of deep - seated conflicts in Hong Kong has been discussed for many years since the time of Premier WEN Jiabao
但是，特區政府顯然沒有辦法或沒有意願解決這個問題。
But the SAR Government apparently has no means nor the intention to resolve this problem
就說勞資關係和社會階級的不對等所衍生的貧富差距和社會資源分配不均，這個問題也說了"N年"。
Taking as an example the disparity between the rich and the poor and uneven distribution of social resources arising from inequalities in labour relations and social classes these problems have been under discussion for many years
勞工界和基層團體一直以來均爭取對弱勢勞工好一點的待遇，例如最低工資及標 準工時，其他富裕國家和地區早已實行這兩項最基本的勞工保障。
The labour sector and grass - roots organizations have long been fighting for better treatment of the disadvantaged workers such as in respect of minimum wage and standard working hours . Meanwhile other developed countries and regions have long implemented these two most basic labour protection measures
香港因為商界和資方無論在選委會或立法會的影響力均很大，他們一直以來都極力阻撓立法。
In Hong Kong the business community and employers are highly influential in both the Election Committee and the Legislative Council and they have striven to scupper the legislation . Minimum wage was not implemented in Hong Kong until 2011 and the wage level is way below those in other developed regions
香港要在2011年才實行最低工資，而且工資水平遠低於其他富裕地區，先不與歐美或日韓比較，就連工資中位數和物價均低於香港的台灣，最低工資也高於香港，他們的時薪折合為44.8港元，香港是37.5元。
Let us not compare our minimum wage level with those in Europe the United States Japan and South Korea . But the minimum wage level in Hong Kong is even lower than that in Taiwan whose median wage and prices of daily necessities are lower than ours . The hourly rate in Taiwan is equivalent to HK44.8 and ours is HK37.5
變成香港設有最低工資，依然未能保障基層勞工，他們繼續面對沉重的生活壓力，更不要說消弭貧富差距。
As a result we are still unable to protect the grass - roots workers despite the presence of a minimum wage in Hong Kong . Workers continue to face the heavy burden of life not to mention our wish to eradicate the disparity between the rich and the poor
實行最低工資的同時，政府表示要研究為標準工時立法，但10年過去，標準工時立法至今仍未能提交立法會。
With the implementation of minimum wage the Government said it would study the legislation on standard working hours . However 10 years have passed but the Government has yet to submit the proposed legislation on standard working hours to the Legislative Council
本來退而求其次的合約工時和強制超時工作補償兩項立法建議又在2018年被擱置，之後工時政策又改為推行11個行業的工時指引，但這些沒有約束力的指引至今仍未見蹤影。
The fall - back legislative proposals that is contractual working hours and mandatory overtime compensation were also shelved in 2018 . And then the proposed working hours policy was subsequently switched to the 11 sector - specific working hours guidelines but these non - binding guidelines are yet to be seen . Hong Kong is known worldwide for its long working hours
香港工時過長世界聞名，其他先進地區每周工作30多小時，國際標準是40小時至44小時，香港是50小時，以至60小時也很常見，很多"打工仔女"OT也沒有"補水"。
The weekly working hours in other developed regions are 30 - odd hours . The international standard is between 40 hours and 44 hours a week . In Hong Kong the weekly working hours are 50 hours or even 60 hours which is very common
工時長在低工資的工種最嚴重，因為時薪過低，唯有工作較長時間，例如保安員每天工作12小時，一星期工作6天便是72小時，現在最低工資時薪是37.5元，運算後每月賺取10,800元，當然他們的工資應稍為高於這個數字。
Long working hours are most common in sectors with low wages . It is because the hourly rates of these sectors are too low their workers have no choice but to work for longer hours . For example a security guard works for 12 hours a day and six days a week so his weekly hours are 72 hours
他們即使可以自己養活自己，也屬於低收入人士，有資格向政府申請交通津貼，但獲得的每月津貼只有600元。
In other words he earns 10,800 a month . But of course the wages of security guards should be slightly higher than this figure . Even if they can manage to be self - sufficient they still belong to the low - income group and are eligible for the Governments public transport fare subsidy which is only 600 a month
如果不較大幅度地提高最低工資水平，以及制訂標準工時，便難以改善基層勞工的生活。
It is difficult to improve the life of grass - roots workers if the authorities do not substantially increase the minimum wage level and set a standard on the working hours
但是，要商界和資方同意較大幅度提高最低工資水平和制訂標準工時，談何容易。
However it is very difficult to persuade the business community and the employers to accept a substantial increase in the minimum wage level and the introduction of standard working hours
其實，勞資關係之所以長期不對等，勞方處於弱勢，最主要原因是工會連最基本的集體談判權也沒有，那麼如何跟資方討價還價呢？
In fact the main reason for the long - standing unequal labour relations and the employees weak position is the lack of collective bargaining right for employees a basic labour right . Then how could they bargain with their employers?
以往爭取集體談判權，或較進取地爭取勞工權益的都是一些代表勞工、基層的議員，現在他們也不見可容納於新選舉制度之下，沒有了他們，要解決這些深層次矛盾便更困難。
In the past Members who fought for the introduction of collective bargaining right or fought more aggressively for labour rights were always those who represented the workers or the grass roots . But now it is unlikely that these Members can be accepted under the new electoral system . Without them it would be even more difficult to resolve these deep - seated conflicts
同樣地，如何才可以改變政府的高地價政策和發展商"賺到盡"的住屋現實，令普通市民能居住在可負擔，並有合理空間的住宅單位，這又是另一個難以解決的深層次矛盾。
Similarly what can be done to change the high land - price policy of the Government and the profit maximization practice among housing developers in the housing market so as to enable the public to live in affordable housing with reasonable living space is another deep - seated conflict hard to be tackled
以往政府將施政不暢順，歸咎於民主派在議會"拉布"和搗亂，那麼完善選舉制度後，現在行政主導已超過一年，政府所指的"雜音"已經消失，現在是否應已沒有貧富懸殊，沒有這些問題發生？
In the past the Government accused the democratic camp of filibustering and causing disruptions in this Council and blamed them for its less than smooth implementation of policies . Now that the electoral system is improved and an executive - led system has been in operation for more than a year and the discord as considered by the Government has disappeared there should be no such problems as disparity between the rich and the poor . Am I right?
香港現在越來越朝向行政主導，特區政府是否有魄力觸動既得利益，嘗試解決深層次矛盾，而不是避重就輕，制 訂一項又一項搔癢般的政策，交差了事？
Hong Kong has become increasingly executive - led . Does the SAR Government have the courage to confront those with vested interests and try to resolve the deep - seated conflicts? . Or will it only dwell on trivial matters and avoid important ones and perfunctorily formulate policies that only scratch the surface?
主席，我謹動議二讀《2021年電影檢查條例草案》。
President I move the Second Reading of the Film Censorship Amendment Bill 2021 the Bill
《香港國安法》於去年6月實施，法例下政府有責任確保能夠充分履行維護國家安全的職責。
The National Security Law which came into force last June places a duty on the Government to ensure that it can fully discharge its duty in the course of protecting national security
商務及經濟發展局審視了相關政策範疇的跟進工作，首先在今年6月已經更新了《有關電影檢查的檢查員指引》，明確指明檢查員要小心留意影片中有否描繪可能構成危害國家安全的行為或活動，亦要特別留意影片會否明顯造成認同、支持、宣揚、美化、鼓勵或煽動危害國家安全的行為或活動的客觀效果。
The Commerce and Economic Development Bureau has reviewed the follow - up work in the relevant policy areas starting with the updating of the Film Censorship Guidelines for Censors in June this year in which censors were unequivocally required to pay vigilant attention to whether or not a film might portray acts or activities that might constitute a threat to national security and they were also required to pay particular attention to whether or not a film had the apparent objective effect of endorsing supporting promoting glorifying encouraging or inciting acts or activities that would be harmful to national security
我們亦仔細審視了《電影檢查條例》，認為必須作出一些修訂，以完善電影檢查規管制度的法律依據，鞏固法律基礎，令電影檢查工作能夠更有效地防範和制止危害國家安全的行為。
We have also carefully examined the Film Censorship Ordinance and considered it necessary to make some amendments to improve the legal basis of the film censorship regulatory regime and to strengthen the legal foundation so that our film censorship work could prevent and suppress acts that are harmful to national security in a more effective way
由於審核委員會的原先設定職權範圍並不包括作出涉及國家安全的判斷，因此我們建議相關條文不適用於監督或檢查員基於國家安全理由所提出的任何決定，即審核委員會不會處理對有關決定而提出的審核要求。
As the original terms of reference of the Board of Review did not include the making of judgments relating to national security it is proposed that the relevant provisions should not be applied to any decisions made by the Authority or censors on national security grounds that is the Board will not deal with requests for review of such decisions
主席，《條例草案》與我們早前於6月時修訂的《檢查員指引》一脈相承，目的是貫徹落實《香港國安法》及提供明確的法律依據。
President the Bill is in line with the Guidelines for Censors which has been revised in June and is intended to provide a clear legal basis for the implementation of the National Security Law
各項修訂的詳情，我們已在立法會參考資料中詳細向議員介紹。
Members have been briefed on the details of the amendments in the Legislative Council Brief
我希望各位議員支持《條例草案》，以完善電影檢查規管制度，更有效地履行維護國家安全的職責，並給予業界清晰指引。
I hope that Members will support the Bill which seeks to improve the regulatory approach of the film censorship regime to better fulfil the duty of safeguarding national security and to provide a clear guidance for the industry
代理主席，多謝麥美娟議員提出這項議案及田北辰議員提出修正案，讓各位議員可在立法會會議上就這個重要議題發表意見，政府會認真聆聽大家的意見。
Deputy President I thank Ms Alice MAK for moving this motion and Mr Michael TIEN for proposing his amendment so that Members are given the opportunity to express their views on this important issue at a meeting of the Legislative Council . The Government will listen to Members views seriously
今日的議題範圍十分廣泛，涉及除公務員事務局以外所有政策局的工作範疇。
The scope of the subject under discussion today is very extensive covering the portfolios of all Bureaux with the Civil Service Bureau being the only exception
我謹以政府問責官員之一的身份，表達政府的基本立場及作出回應。
In my capacity as one of the principal officials of the Government I wish to state the basic stance of the Government and give a response to the subject matter
就議案所提的貧富差距及社會資源分配問題，我們可分別從分配政策及再分配政策作出討論。
With regard to the problems raised in the motion concerning the disparity between the rich and the poor and the distribution of social resources we can discuss the matters involved from two perspectives namely the distribution policy and redistribution policy
分配政策涉及多項宏觀政策，我主要僅提出兩點，其一是產業政策，其二是人力勞工政策。
The distribution policy involves a number of macro policies and I will place my focus on two of them the first being the industrial policy while the second being the manpower and labour policy
