屋宇署在審批該樁柱圖 則時，除要求負責工程的註冊結構工程師、註冊岩土工程師及註冊承建商須根據《建築物條例》及其附屬規例的恆常規定外，載述一套打樁工程對附近建築物及公用設施監測規定的細節，包括於該兩座橋躉的相關位置各設置兩個監測點；監察監測點的沉降紀錄；訂下監測點沉降的可接受幅度及採取的相應措施等。
And during the approval process BD required the registered structural engineer registered geotechnical engineer and registered contractor responsible for the building works to comply with the regular requirements under the Buildings Ordinance and its subsidiary regulations . Apart from that they also had to set out the technicalities of the monitoring requirements for the nearby buildings and services in relation to the piling works . Such technicalities include setting up two additional monitoring checkpoints at each relevant location of the two viaduct piers; keeping watch of the subsidence record of the monitoring checkpoints; setting down the tolerable limit for the monitoring checkpoints and the corresponding measures to be adopted
由於該發展項目的打樁工程位處《建築物條例》附表5所列的鐵路保護區範圍內，故此，屋宇署同時要求負責打樁工程的人員須根據港鐵公司的要求，在展開打樁工程前，直接通知港鐵公司，以便該公司制訂適當的監察計劃，包括於該段高架橋及其他位置額外設置監測點，以便港鐵公司能緊密監測受影響橋躉的沉降幅度和傾斜度。
As the piling works of that development project were to be carried out within a railway protection area listed under Schedule 5 to the Buildings Ordinance BD also required the personnel responsible for the piling works to comply with MTRCLs request for instant notification before the commencement of the piling works . This is to facilitate the formulation of an appropriate monitoring plan which includes setting up additional monitoring checkpoints at that section of the viaduct and other locations to enable MTRCL to closely monitor the extent of subsidence and the degree of inclination
此外，為保障鐵路設施的結構安全和穩固，於鐵路保護區範圍內的打樁工程，須符合一套比一般建築物更嚴謹的標準，包括訂明當上述監測點的沉降情況超過20毫米的可接受程度上限時，須立即停止相關的打樁工程，並向屋宇署提交緩解方案，以減低對鄰近鐵路設施的影響。
Moreover to ensure structural safety and stability of railway facilities piling works to be carried out within a railway protection area must comply with a set of more stringent standards . For instance it is stipulated that when the subsidence at the above monitoring checkpoint exceeds the maximum tolerable limit of 20 mm the piling works concerned should be suspended and a remedial proposal should be submitted to BD so as to minimize the adverse impact on the adjacent railway facilities
在獲得屋宇署批准後，有關打樁工程才可復工。
Piling works may resume only when approval is given by BD
有關發展項目的樁柱圖則於2008年3月獲屋宇署批准，其打樁工程亦於同年7月獲准展開。
The piling plan of the development project concerned was approved by BD in March 2008 and the piling works was allowed to commence in July of the same year
2012年至2013年間，港鐵公司留意到該兩座橋躉出現輕微的沉降現象。
Between 2012 and 2013 MTRCL noted the slight subsidence of the two viaduct piers
屋宇署確認該段期間，兩座橋躉的沉降幅度沒有超過20毫米的可接受程度上限，而且，有關沉降情況亦未引致該兩條支柱出現結構安全問題。
As confirmed by BD during the said period the subsidence of the two viaduct piers did not exceed the maximum tolerable limit of 20 mm and also the subsidence had not caused any structural safety problem to the two pillars
雖然如此，因應沉降現象及港鐵公司的要求，該發展項目的註冊結構工程師於2013年9月中通知屋宇署，該地盤暫時停止樁柱工程。
Nonetheless in the light of the subsidence and the request by MTRCL the registered structural engineer of the development project informed BD in September 2013 that the piling works at the construction site would be suspended
該地盤停止樁柱工程後，屋宇署仍繼續密切監察沉降幅度的變化，並要求註冊承建商繼續測量監測點，以及向屋宇署提交監測點的沉降紀錄。
After the suspension of the piling works at the construction site BD still kept a close watch on the changes of subsidence level . Also the registered contractor was asked to continue to take measurement at the monitoring checkpoints and to submit to BD the subsidence records of the monitoring checkpoints
及後，根據屋宇署提供的資料，該兩座橋躉的沉降幅度並沒有超逾20毫米的可接受程度上限。
Thereafter as the information of BD shows the subsidence of the two viaduct piers has not exceeded the maximum tolerable limit of 20 mm
據了解，港鐵公司於2014年10月向屋宇署提交為兩條混凝土支柱進行預防性加固工程的方案，並於2015年6月獲屋宇署接納其方案。
As far as I understand a proposal for preventive underpinning works for the two concrete pillars was submitted to BD by MTRCL in October 2014 and it was accepted by BD in June 2015
及後，港鐵公司聘請了獨立顧問協助審視加固工程的方案及細節，而有關工程已於2017年9月展開，現時仍在進行。
Afterwards MTRCL engaged an independent consultant to assist in examining the method and technicalities of the underpinning works . The underpinning works have been undertaken since September 2017 and are still in progress
此外，負責該發展項目打樁工程的人員，已於2018年5月向屋宇署呈交經修訂的樁柱工程圖則，當中包括增加緩解方案，以減低對西鐵設施的影響。
Moreover the personnel responsible for the piling works of the development project already submitted a revised piling plan to BD in May 2018 . The revised plan includes an enhanced remedial proposal to lessen the impact on the facilities of the West Rail Link
有關承建商並承諾會在港鐵公司為兩座受影響橋躉完成預防性加固工程後，才展開樁柱工程。
The contractor concerned has also undertaken to complete the preventive underpinning works for the two affected viaduct piers before resuming the piling works
屋宇署、機電署及港鐵公司會繼續密切監察該兩座橋躉的沉降情況，以確保公眾安全。
BD EMSD and MTRCL will continue to closely monitor the subsidence condition of those two viaduct piers so as to ensure public safety
我們明白，公眾十分關注今次西鐵高架橋橋躉沉降事件對鐵路安全造成的影響，亦關注屋宇署未有就沉降情況通報機電署，以及港鐵公司未有將事件通報各相關持份者。
We appreciate that the public are deeply concerned as to whether the subsidence of the viaduct piers of the West Rail Link will affect railway safety . And it is also a cause for concern that BD failed to notify EMSD of the subsidence condition and MTRCL did not notify relevant stakeholders of the incident
為回應公眾的關注，屋宇署和機電署現正審視今次事件，包括如果有關工程令鄰近的鐵路設施出現沉降，即使沉降情況未有超逾預設的可接受程度，部門之間應如何加強溝通。
In response to public concern BD and EMSD are examining the present incident including how inter - departmental communication should be strengthened when relevant building works cause subsidence of the adjacent railway facilities even if the extent does not exceed the default tolerable limit
屋宇署和機電署並正檢討有關資料發放的安排，以提高事件通報的透明度，讓市民大眾及相關持份者及時了解鐵路安全是否受影響。
BD and EMSD are also conducting a review on the arrangements for information dissemination with a view to make incident notification more transparent for members of the public and relevant stakeholders to learn about whether railway safety is affected in a timely manner
同時，機電署會繼續恆常監察港鐵及與鐵路安全有關的工作，透過定期會議，與港鐵公司檢討涉及鐵路服務及安全的各項議題。
At the same time EMSD will keep monitoring MTRCLs work in relation to railway safety constantly . Through regular meetings EMSD will review various issues concerning railway service and safety with MTRCL
如果有需要，港鐵公司亦會就相關議題向立法會鐵路事宜小組委員會匯報。
If necessary MTRCL will also report relevant issues to the Legislative Council Subcommittee on Matters Relating to Railways
主席，我動議若稍後就"加快推動智慧城市發展"所提出的議案或修正案再進行點名表決，表決須在鐘聲響起1分鐘後進行。
President I move that in the event of further divisions being claimed in respect of the motion on Expediting the promotion of smart city development or any amendments thereto this Council do proceed to each of such divisions immediately after the division bell has been rung for one minute
代理主席，創新在人類歷史中從未停止，更是人類社會賴以進步的重要因素，科技提升生產力及便利生活。
Deputy President innovation has continued without pause throughout human history and is an important element on which the progress of human society relies . Technology boosts productivity and brings convenience to our life
近年來，區塊鏈技術提高銀行交易的安全性；更準確的醫學圖像有助醫護人員作出適時的診斷；而識別、計算、分析及服務上前景廣闊的人工智能技術，更是各國及企業積極投入研究、競爭的領域。
In recent years blockchain technology improved the security of banking transactions; medical imaging with greater precision helped medical personnel make timely diagnoses; and artificial intelligence technology which shows great promises in identification computation analysis and services has become an area of active research inputs and competition among countries and enterprises
構建智慧城市、提升資源利用率、優化城市管理、改善市民生活實屬眾望所歸，而取得成效的關鍵在於香港能否研發、擁有先進科技，以及相關科技的應用。
It is indeed the aspirations of the people to see the construction of a smart city higher rates of resource utilization enhancement in urban management and improvement of peoples livelihood . The key to success lies in whether Hong Kong can develop and possess advanced technologies as well as in the application of such technologies
就科技而言，科研需要政府及企業大力投入。
In respect of technology scientific research requires vigorous investments from governments and enterprises
香港擁有良好的知識產權制度及科研基礎，包括具世界級科研實力的大學及高質素的科研人才，但本港在科研投入方面仍然落後。
Despite boasting a robust regime for intellectual property rights and a strong research base including universities with world - class scientific research capabilities and quality talent in scientific research Hong Kong is still caught in a lag in terms of investments in scientific research
雖然行政長官在施政報告中表明預留500億元支援創科，以及計劃在5年內將科研投入提升1倍，達致本地生產總值的1.5%，但此目標仍遠低於新加坡的逾3%或深圳、韓國、以色列等地的逾4%的科研投入比率。
The Chief Executive proclaimed in her Policy Address to set aside 50 billion to support innovation and technology and the plan to double investments in innovation and technology―to 1.5 % as a percentage of Gross Domestic Product GDP―in 5 years . However that target is still far too low in comparison with Singapores over 3 % or the over 4 % as a share of GDP committed by Shenzhen South Korea 4.3 % and Israel 4.2 %
與此同時，企業特別是中小企在科研方面的投入亦相對較低。
Meanwhile enterprises inputs in scientific research are relatively low as well
科研投入與任何投資一樣，均會產生風險。
Like other forms of investment investments in scientific research incur risks
對於已逐漸步入老齡社會、公共醫療資源緊張的香港，這些措施具極大借鑒作用，亦是科技應用的典範。
As models of application of technologies these measures have great reference value for Hong Kong which is becoming an ageing society with an over - stretched public health care system
最後，如果發展智慧城市所應用的科技能夠真正運行，在監管層面上，政府有責任在法規上科學、適當地拆牆鬆綁，釐清法律要求。
Lastly in terms of regulation if technologies applied to smart city development truly work it is incumbent upon the Government to scientifically and appropriately remove all restrictions and regulations and clarify the relevant legal requirements
監管機構亦應抱持開放思維，務求在既有的市場生態、消費者權益及創新空間三者之間取得合理平衡。
Regulators should keep an open mind and strive to strike an appropriate balance among the established market ecology consumer rights and room for innovation
代理主席，智慧城市為公眾帶來實質利益，相互連接的社群、社區，便捷、環保的社會對公眾生活素質有很大影響。
Deputy President a smart city brings tangible benefits to the public as interconnected social groups and communities in a convenient and green society can have a huge impact on the quality of peoples life
香港發展智慧城市需要各方面群策群力，共同打造數位生態環境，開發科技及應用科技，這是加快推動智慧城市發展步伐的唯一及很重要的先決條件。
Smart city development in Hong Kong requires the concerted efforts of all to forge together a digital ecosystem for the development and application of technologies . Such is the single most important prerequisite for speeding up the pace of promoting smart city development
主席，兒童是每個社會的明天，保護孩子更是每一位成年人義不容辭的道德責任。
President children are the future of every society and protection of children is an unshirkable moral duty of every adult
平情而論，港府就此做了不少工作，並且定期就《兒童權利公約》在香港的實施向聯合國提交報告。
In all fairness the Hong Kong Government has devoted a lot of efforts to this respect and has been making regular reports to the United Nations on the implementation of the Convention on the Rights of the Child in Hong Kong
但是，社會大眾也很清楚，香港在保護兒童權利方面仍然有很大的改善空間。
Nonetheless as the general public knows clearly there is still much room for improvement in the protection of childrens rights in Hong Kong
底線是不能容忍虐兒慘劇一再發生。
The bottom line is that the recurrence of tragedies of child abuse cannot be tolerated
這份兒童權利小組委員會的報告亦在8個有關兒童權利的範疇，包括虐待、殘疾、貧窮、考試及家課壓力等方面提出了許多改善建議，均值得當局參考。
The Report of the Subcommittee on Childrens Rights makes many improvement recommendations in eight aspects relating to childrens rights including abuse disabilities poverty examination and schoolwork stress which all merit reference drawn by the Government
但是，這些建議其實並不"新鮮"，關鍵是政府是否有足夠魄力，拿出有效措施及足夠資源來改善這些老問題。
However such recommendations are indeed no novelty . The crux is whether the Government is bold enough to introduce effective measures and allocate sufficient resources to solve such long - standing problems
例如，在保護兒童免受虐待方面，相關機構必須提高警覺，前線人員要有適當培訓，以確保"及早識別及介入"有關個案，這些早已是當局多年的目標。
For example as regards protection of children against abuse relevant organizations must stay vigilant and frontline workers need to undergo appropriate training to ensure early identification and intervention of such cases . These have long since been the goals of the authorities over the years
可是，這份報告仍然建議當局"探討措施以確保能及早識別和介入高危家庭個案"、"鼓勵學校""迅速採取行動處理和跟進該等個案"及"為前線人員提供更多培訓"。
However the report still recommends the authorities to explore measures to ensure that families at risk can receive early identification and intervention encourage schools to take prompt action for tackling and following up those cases and provid[e] more training for frontline staff
原因顯而易見，便是現時的機制仍然做得不足，而後果動輒可令防止悲劇發生的最後防線形同虛設。
The reasons are evident ie . the existing mechanism is still not adequate and the consequences can readily render the last defence of preventing family tragedies virtually non - existent
很遺憾，近期兩宗令人髮指的奪命家庭虐兒案便是現成例子。
Much to our regret two infuriating cases of fatal child abuse that happened recently are the readily available examples
今年年初，一名5歲女童涉嫌遭虐殺。
At the beginning of this year a five - year - old girl was suspected to have been abused to death
據披露，女童曾帶着受虐傷痕上課，而受虐女童哥哥就讀的學校社工甚至已向社會福利署上報了男童有可疑傷痕。
It is reported that the girl had attended school with visible injuries and the social worker of the school which the brother of the girl being abused attended had even reported suspicious visible injuries of the boy to the Social Welfare Department SWD
但社署解釋，因接獲的只是個案"查詢"而非個案"轉介"，結果個案在關鍵時期仍然沒有得到適切跟進，予人觀感是社署玩弄文字，推卸責任。
However SWD explained that as a case enquiry not a case referral was received the outcome was that the case was not given appropriate follow - up at the critical time . It gives people the impression that SWD just played with words and evaded responsibility
另一宗個案剛於上星期才審結，法官形容它是"情況最差的虐兒案件之一"，並指出相關控罪最高10年刑期已不足以反映該案件的嚴重性，促請當局作出檢討。
The trial of the other case was concluded just last week . The Judge described it as one of the worst child abuse cases and pointed out that the maximum penalty of 10 years imprisonment for the relevant charges could not adequately reflect the severity of the case urging the authorities to conduct a review
案中女童被發現受害時只有7歲，至今已仿如植物人，案件揭發前女童就讀的幼稚園亦發現她有傷勢，並由社工跟進，但施虐者的連串謊話卻能長時間成功隱瞞了女童受虐的真相。
The girl concerned was only seven years old when she was discovered a victim and is now literally in a vegetative state . Before the case was uncovered the kindergarten attended by the girl had discovered her wounds and arranged for a social worker to follow up . Yet a series of lies by the abuser somehow managed to conceal for a long time the truth of the girl being abused
不用說，現時最重要的是亡羊補牢，防止悲劇重演。
Suffice to say it is most imperative to mend the fold now to prevent the recurrence of tragedies
當局至今的回應是收緊了學生缺課的通報機制，規定幼稚園學生缺課7天便要向有關部門通報卻未有交代跟進措施並在未來3年分階段為資助幼兒中心及幼稚園提供社工服務，社工與學童的比例更由最初構想的1：600降為1：400。
The reaction given by the authorities so far is to tighten the notification mechanism of students absence by requiring kindergartens to report to relevant departments students who have been absent from class for seven days―but with no mention of any follow - up measures―and provide in phases social work services for subvented child care centres and kindergartens in the next three years with the ratio of social workers to students lowered from the originally conceived 1col600 to 1col400
主席，持續優化這些措施細節固然重要，但亦請當局謹記，公眾最想知道的並非細節內容，而是政府的新措施能否令兒童得到足夠、及時的保障。
President it is certainly important to make persistent enhancements to specific measures . However the authorities should also bear in mind that the public is most eager to know not the details but whether the new measures of the Government can afford children adequate and timely protection
例如，對於慘劇暴露出關於跟進個案流程及相關權責方面的問題，當局有否針對性措施，足以確保涉嫌 虐兒個案均會得到適切跟進？
For example as regards the problems relating to case follow - up procedures and relevant powers and responsibilities which have been exposed by the tragedy do the authorities have in place targeted measures that can effectively ensure appropriate follow - up of all alleged child abuse cases?
大家希望得到的是當局清晰及正面的答案。
We wish to receive clear and positive responses from the authorities
此外，這份報告強烈要求設立中央兒童數據庫，亦是社會多年來的訴求，因為現時政府部門及公共機構各自掌握有關兒童的數據片面不全，實難有助深入了解兒童問題。
Moreover the report strongly calls for the establishment of a central database for children which has also been a request in society over the years for the reason that currently government departments and public organizations each hold fragmentary and incomplete data of children rendering in - depth understanding of children issues difficult
例如，有研究發現，同樣是虐兒個案，自2001年起的10年，醫院管理局共記錄了7,000多名受虐兒童，比起社署同期的紀錄多出2,700多人。
For example a study found that in respect of child abuse cases in the 10 years beginning in 2001 the Hospital Authority recorded a total of 7 000 - odd abused children 2 700 more than the number recorded by SWD in the same period
進行有關研究的學者也指出，這個差異可能反映轉介及處理個案的流程出現漏洞，促請當局檢討及合併數據。
Scholars conducting the study pointed out that the discrepancy may reflect loopholes in the case referral and handling procedures urging the authorities to conduct a review and merge the data
又例如，大家想協助遺傳罕見病童，但政府根本連罕見病也未定義，遑論有病童的詳細資料。
Another example is that we all want to help children suffering from rare genetic diseases but the Government is yet to give a definition of rare diseases let alone detailed information on sick children
主席，兒童福祉是一個廣闊及複雜的問題，更牽涉到家庭狀況、法例保障、教育制度、貧富懸殊、社會保障等問題。
President childrens well - being is a broad and complicated issue which involves family conditions statutory protection education system disparity between the rich and the poor social security etc
基於時間限制，我只能淺談上述數點關注，但已足以看到，要確保我們的孩子快樂成長，香港必須有一套全面、"貼地"且具體的兒童政策，同時要改善現時政出多門的弊病，投放足夠資源，而各相關政府部門亦要妥善協調落實的措施。
Owing to the time limit I can only briefly discuss the aforementioned few points but it should have adequately illustrated to us that to ensure that our children can grow up happily Hong Kong must put in place a comprehensive practical and specific children policy and at the same time rectify the defect of responsibility fragmentation and allocate sufficient resources while various government departments also have to properly coordinate the implementation of measures
近月行政長官履行其競選政綱作出的承諾，成立了兒童事務委員會，匯聚所有相關政策局、部門及兒童權益團體致力改善兒童福祉。
In recent months to honour the pledge made in the election manifesto the Chief Executive has set up the Commission on Children which pools efforts from all relevant Policy Bureaux departments and organizations for childrens rights for the purpose of improving the well - being of children
保護兒童免受暴力或疏忽照顧是該委員會首要處理的工作之一。
Protection of children against violence or neglect is one of the prime tasks of the Commission
相信廣大社會及市民也與我一樣，希望委員會能抓緊這些迫切問題盡快做出成績，並期望本港盡快制訂全面及周詳的保護兒童政策。
I believe the general public like me hopes the Commission can address such pressing problems and achieve results promptly and expects the expeditious formulation of a comprehensive and well thought - out policy on protection of children in Hong Kong
我現在請張華峰議員動議修正案。
I now call upon Mr Christopher CHEUNG to move his amendment
代理主席，我動議修正盧偉國議員的議案。
Deputy President I move that Ir Dr LO Wai - kwoks motion be amended
很可惜，自此之後，對於推動智慧城市的發展，香港無甚寸進，不單被新加坡迎頭趕上，現時連內地大城市包括深圳、上海等都遠遠拋離香港。
Regrettably Hong Kongs advance in smart city development has since stalled not just being overtaken by Singapore but now lagging far behind such major Mainland municipalities as Shenzhen and Shanghai
所謂智慧城市是利用先進科技，提高城市運作及管理效率，從而改善市民的生活質素及增強經濟競爭力。
Smart city means utilizing innovation and technology to enhance the effectiveness of city operation and management with a view to improving peoples quality of living and boosting economic competitiveness
去年年底在創新及科技局的領導下，政府訂出《香港智慧城市藍圖》，提出未來5年的政策措施，全力推動智慧城市的發展。
Led by the Innovation and Technology Bureau the Government formulated late last year the Smart City Blueprint for Hong Kong laying down the policy measures for the next five years in an all - out effort to promote smart city development
坦白說，鄰近城市如深圳、廣州、台灣及新加坡，在智慧城市發展方面早已做得有聲有色，我們現時才推出規劃藍圖，難免被人認為香港走得太慢。
Frankly speaking with neighbouring cities such as Shenzhen Guangzhou Taiwan and Singapore already making remarkable progress in smart city development it is hard to escape the impression that Hong Kong―having not even a planning blueprint until now―is too slow in its progress
當然，有心不怕遲，我們現在要盡力落實《藍圖》內的政策措施，亦要理解我們為何發展得這麼慢，不要再重蹈覆轍。
Certainly it is never too late to catch up . But while striving to implement all the policy measures set out in the Blueprint we must learn the reason for our slow progress and avoid making the same mistake again
其實我們起步並不算遲，政府早在2007年已開始大力推動Wi-Fi服務的發展，以爭取為發展智慧城市定下基礎。
As a matter of fact we were not at all late in taking the initial step . In a bid to lay down the foundation for smart city development the Government began vigorously promoting the development of Wi - Fi services back in 2007
可惜到了今時今日，公共Wi-Fi服務仍未達到國際城市應有的水平。
Unfortunately public Wi - Fi services nowadays still fall short of the level commensurate with a cosmopolitan city
政府已投入超過4億元，在政府場地設置超過3,000個免費Wi-Fi熱點，但審計署4月發表報告指出，近四成熱點的網速不達標，有部分甚至無法連線，提供Wi-Fi的場地中三成的使用率極低；整項政府Wi-Fi服務的覆蓋範圍未能達標，宣傳工作欠奉；而推動公私營合作提供Wi-Fi服務的工作亦進展緩慢。
The Government has injected over 400 million into establishing over 3 000 Wi - Fi hotspots on government premises . However the Audit Commission noted in a report in April that nearly 40 % of the hotspots offered a download speed that fell short of the stated goal; in some of the hotspots no connection can be established at all; 30 % of the venues with Wi - Fi services attracted extremely low usage rates; the entire Government Wi - Fi services lacked publicity with coverage failing to live up to target; and the progress of promoting the provision of Wi - Fi services through private - public collaboration was slow
對於一個智慧城市來說，公共Wi-Fi服務是最基本項目，但香港推行了10年仍達不到基本要求，就是因為欠缺落實能力。
The provision of public Wi - Fi services is the most basic element of a smart city . Yet Hong Kong still fails to meet this basic requirement despite a decade of implementation all because we lack the capabilities of execution
立法會在4月訪問粵港澳大灣區，當時也有參觀內地智慧城市的建設，包括參觀深圳市交警智能交通指揮中心。
In the visit to the Guangdong - Hong Kong - Macao Bay Area conducted by the Legislative Council in April we had the opportunity to tour some smart city infrastructure including the Command and Control Centre of the Shenzhen Traffic Police Headquarters
該指揮中心是全市交通動態管理的神經中樞，可以看到整個城市的交通情況，哪條道路擠塞、交通巡邏警員的分布，以及各停車場實時泊車情況皆一目了然，讓中心得以統一指揮調配工作。
A nerve centre overseeing the dynamic management of the entire municipalitys traffic the Centre commands a prospect of the traffic situation of the whole municipality from the location of congested routes the distribution of traffic patrol officers to the real - time parking situation of car parks all could be seen at a glance which facilitate the Centres coordination of the command and deployment work
不過，如果要在香港設立類似的交通指揮中心，必定大有困難，因為相關指揮中心涉及很多部門，包括警務處、運輸署、創新及科技局、路政署、房屋署、民政事務總署、環境保護署等。
However there would be considerable difficulties if a similar traffic command centre were to be established in Hong Kong due to the likely involvement of numerous departments such as the Police Force the Transportation Department the Innovation and Technology Bureau the Highways Department the Housing Authority the Home Affairs Department and the Environmental Protection Department
政府部門各自為政、各有運作及各有權責，如何統籌眾多部門工作？
How can we coordinate the efforts of so many government departments when they all tend to go their own ways follow their own operational approaches and adhere to their own powers and responsibilities
政府應考慮這個問題。
The Government should think about this issue
創新及科技局局長楊偉雄先生受訪時也表示，關心部門之間的協調問題。他強調，要推動智慧城市的發展，收集數據十分重要。
Mr Nicholas YANG Secretary for Innovation and Technology said in an interview that he was concerned about the issue of coordination among departments and stressed the importance of data collection in the promotion of smart city development
政府將會在尖沙咀、觀塘等地設立400支智慧燈柱，燈柱裝有多功能感應器，可以收集天氣、人流、車流等數據。
The Government will install 400 lampposts in such districts as Tsim Sha Tsui and Kwun Tong . Equipped with multi - functional sensors these lampposts can collect such data as weather pedestrian and traffic flows
