我非常認同這點，因為擁護《基本法》、效忠香港特區是作為區議員的最基本責任。
I strongly agree with this point because upholding the Basic Law and bearing allegiance to HKSAR are the basic duties of DC members
"國有國法，家有家規"，凡擔任公職人員，必須擁護法紀、效忠國家和政府。
There are laws in every country and regulations in every family . All public officers must uphold the law and bear allegiance to the country and the Government
莫說是立法會和區議會這兩個組織規模較大的議會要求議員宣誓，我所屬的功能界別新界鄉議局，其轄下27個鄉事委員會最近亦為日後的鄉事會選舉作出修訂。
In addition to the Legislative Council and DCs which are two relatively larger organizations requiring members to take an oath the 27 Rural Committees under the New Territories Heung Yee Kuk functional constituency to which I belong have also made amendments for the future Rural Committee Elections recently
代理主席，請容許我花少許時間談談這個情況。
Deputy President please allow me to spend some time discussing this subject
為配合《香港國安法》實施，經諮詢27個鄉事會的意見後，鄉議局早前向民政事務總署提出修訂建議，日後當選鄉事會執行委員會委員的人士，必須宣誓表明擁護《基本法》及效忠香港特區；任何人如果觸犯《香港國安法》，一經定罪後，便即時喪失參選及擔任鄉事會執行委員的資格等。
To dovetail with the implementation of the National Security Law Heung Yee Kuk has after consulting the 27 Rural Committees put forth an amendment proposal to the Home Affairs Department earlier requiring a person who is elected as a member of the Executive Committee of the Rural Committee to take an oath to uphold the Basic Law and bear allegiance to HKSAR . Any person who contravenes the National Security Law shall upon conviction be disqualified from standing for election and serving as an Executive Committee member of the Rural Committee
有關修訂完全體現當選者必須擁護《基本法》、效忠香港特區的根本性原則。
The amendments fully embody the fundamental principle that the elected person must uphold the Basic Law and bear allegiance to HKSAR
修訂建議獲得政府迅速回應，並已於今年4月30日在與政府舉行的工作小組會議上通過，即時在新界27鄉生效。
The proposed amendments received swift response from the Government . They were passed at the working group meeting with the Government on 30 April this year and immediately came into effect in 27 villages in the New Territories
第二，《條例草案》建議加入具體的宣誓要求，包括宣誓必須符合宣誓程序和儀式。
Secondly the Bill proposes to introduce specific oath - taking requirements including the requirement that oaths must be taken in accordance with the oath - taking procedure and ceremony
故意宣讀與法定誓言不一致的內容，或以任何不真誠、不莊重的方式宣誓，均屬拒絕宣誓，所作的宣誓亦屬無效。
If a person intentionally says words that do not accord with the wording of the oath prescribed by law or acts in a way that is not sincere or not solemn in taking the oath the person shall be regarded as declining to take the oath and the oath taken shall be deemed as invalid
任何人士如違反誓言，或不符合擁護《基本法》、效忠香港特區的要求和條件，即喪失出任相關公職的資格。
Any person who is in breach of an oath or fails to fulfil the requirements and conditions on upholding the Basic Law and bearing allegiance to HKSAR shall be disqualified from holding the relevant public office
有關議員亦須即時暫停職務，不得享受相應待遇，包括酬金、津貼及償還款額等。
The member concerned shall also be suspended from duties immediately and shall not enjoy corresponding entitlements which will include remuneration allowances and reimbursements
我認為"停職停薪"絕對是貼近人大常委會的決定，以及人大常委會關於《基本法》第一百零四條的解釋的精神和原則。
In my opinion the suspension without pay is absolutely in line with the spirit and principles of NPCSCs decision and NPCSCs Interpretation of Article 104 of the Basic Law
第三，《條例草案》建議在行政長官、立法會及區議會選舉中加入限制，任何人違反宣誓要求而被"DQ"，或不符合擁護《基本法》、效忠香港特區的要求和條件，5年內不得在相關選舉中被提名或當選，我認為這正正是彰顯誓言的莊嚴。
Thirdly the Bill proposes to impose restrictions on the elections of the Chief Executive the Legislative Council and the District Councils such that persons who have been DQ disqualified for breach of the oath - taking requirements or failure to fulfil the requirements and conditions on upholding the Basic Law and pledging allegiance to HKSAR will be disqualified from being nominated or elected in the relevant elections held within five years . I think this precisely reflects the solemnity of the oath
代理主席，世界各地的就職宣誓都是莊嚴而神聖的，宣誓人會依照各國憲法或法例，按照指定的誓詞宣誓。
Deputy President the taking of oath when assuming office is solemn and sacred all over the world during which an oath taker is required to take the oath in accordance with the constitution or laws of the respective country and in accordance with the prescribed wording of the oath
如任何人士拒絕依法宣誓，最嚴重的後果是喪失就任資格，這亦是普世價值。
If a person declines to take the oath in accordance with the law the most serious consequence is disqualification from office which is also a universal value
最近，外界有人胡言亂語，指《條例草案》用來打壓現職的區議員，這全是不盡不實的說法，因為《條例草案》的目的並不是打壓，而是正本清源、堵塞漏洞，讓議會重回正軌。
Recently some people have made unsubstantiated claims that the Bill is used to suppress incumbent DC members . These claims are untrue and unfounded because the Bill does not to seek to suppress but to solve problems at root and plug loopholes so that the Legislative Council can return to the original track
做人做事，只要"行得正、企得正"，過去的言行並無違反誓言，亦沒有不符合擁護《基本法》、效忠香港特區的要求，又何懼之有呢？
As long as we are righteous and our words and deeds have not breached the oath or failed to fulfil the requirements of upholding the Basic Law and bearing allegiance to HKSAR we shall fear nothing
只能怪"攬炒派"一直死性不改，今天的下場是他們自己種下的惡果。
The mutual destruction camp can only blame themselves for being stubborn and refusing to change all along . Their tragic ending is the evil consequence that they have to bear today
主席，我謹此陳辭，支持通過《條例草案》，並申報我是屯門區的區議員。
With these remarks President I support the passage of the Bill and declare that I am a member of the Tuen Mun DC
主席，日本政府於上月宣布，將於兩年後開始把福島第一核電站的核廢水排放入大海。
President the Japanese Government announced last month that it would start discharging nuclear wastewater from the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant into the sea in two years time
有專家指出，含放射性物質的核廢水會從排放日起計57天內擴散至太平洋大半區域，並會於10年後蔓延至全球海域。
Some experts have pointed out that the nuclear wastewater containing radioactive substances will disperse across more than half of the Pacific Ocean within 57 days from the day of discharge and spread over to all waters around the world in 10 years time
因此，全球的海洋生態及漁業勢必受影響。
As a result the marine ecosystem and fisheries
根據有關的公布，核廢水會先經淨化和稀釋後，符合國際標準才會排放。
According to the announcement the nuclear wastewater will be purified and diluted to meet relevant international standards before discharge
由於有關廢水涉及多種放射性元素，我們了解不少團體、漁業經營者和市民大眾均擔心將福島核電站的廢水排放出海洋，會嚴重影響海洋生態、食物鏈以至食物安全。
Since the wastewater contains various radionuclides we understand that many organizations fishery operators and members of the public are concerned that the discharge of wastewater from the Fukushima Nuclear Power Station into the ocean would have serious impact on marine ecosystem the food chain and food safety
特區政府已就有關計劃對食物安全的影響向日本當局表達極度關注，強烈要求日本當局就福島核廢水排放方案提供多方面的數據和監控的資訊，包括排放廢水的方法和實際位置、廢水內所含輻射物質的清單和濃度、排放廢水的頻度和排放量，以及日方對廢水處理和周邊環境的監測計劃等。
The Hong Kong Special Administrative Region SAR Government has expressed grave concern about the impact of the discharge plan on food safety and has strongly requested the Japanese authorities to provide data on various aspects and information on control and surveillance including the method and actual location of the wastewater discharge the list and the concentration of the radionuclides in the wastewater the frequency and volume of discharge as well as the monitoring programme on the wastewater treatment and the surrounding environment
香港方面，我們在日本當局禁止出口的食品名單之上，實施額外的進口管制措施。
As for Hong Kong the import control measures are extra control on top of the list of food products prohibited from export from Japan
現時，除了日本當局禁止不能出口的食品之外，來自福島縣的所有蔬菜及水果、奶、奶類飲品及奶粉均禁止進口本港。
Currently apart from the food products that are prohibited from export by the Japanese authorities all vegetables fruits milk milk beverages and dried milk from Fukushima are prohibited from import to Hong Kong
另外，所有來自上述5個縣的冷凍或冷藏野味、肉類和家禽、禽蛋，以及活生、冷凍或冷藏水產品亦必須附有由日本當局簽發的輻射證明書，證明有關食物的輻射水平沒有超出食品法典委員會的指引限值，否則亦禁止輸入本港。
In addition the import of all chilled or frozen game meat and poultry poultry eggs and all live chilled or frozen aquatic products from the above five prefectures is prohibited unless the food products are accompanied by radiation certificate issued by the competent authority of Japan certifying that their radiation levels do not exceed the guideline levels of the Codex Alimentarius Commission
相對於美國的食品管制清單，香港對日本食品所實施的管制措施在實際操作上更為嚴格，而並非落後於形勢。
As compared to the US food control list Hong Kongs control measures on Japanese food products are in fact more stringent operationally instead of lagging behind
例如，現時大部分福島縣的水果均可在日本當地及美國出售，但為謹慎起見，香港仍然禁止有關食品進口。
For instance vast majority of the fruits from Fukushima can be put on sale in Japan and US currently . However for prudence sake Hong Kong still prohibits their import
另外，在福島和附近4縣當地可出售的冰鮮和冷藏肉類，在進口香港時必須附有輻射證明書，但進口美國時則無須提供。
Moreover chilled and frozen meat that can be put on sale in Fukushima and the neighbouring four prefectures must be accompanied by radiation certificate for import to Hong Kong whereas such requirement is not necessary for import to the US
事實上，不少國家在福島核事故後不久已經停止對日本食品進行輻射監控，而香港則一直以風險為本的原則，處理和檢測日本進口食品的輻射風險，在過去10年檢測了超過75萬個日本進口食品樣本，並會繼續以風險為本在恆常食物監測計劃內就日本食品進行輻射檢測，以確保食物安全，保障市民的健康。
In fact quite a number of countries have already ceased their radiation monitoring on Japanese food soon after the Fukushima nuclear accident while Hong Kong adopts a risk - based approach in handling and conducting radiation tests on food products imported from Japan all along . Over the past 10 years more than 750 000 samples of Japanese food imports had been tested . We shall continue to conduct radiation testing of imported food from Japan following a risk - based approach under the routine Food Surveillance Programme to safeguard public health and food safety
根據政府統計處的數字，本港從日本進口的主要食物佔整體食物供應約1.3%。
According to the figures of the Census and Statistics Department the import of basic foodstuff from Japan amounts to about 1.3 % of the total food supply in Hong Kong
視乎情況，我們不排除會增加對日本進口食品的檢測，以及收緊對福島及鄰近地區的食品的入口管制，並與相關業界保持溝通。
Depending on the circumstances we will not rule out increasing the tests on Japanese food imports and tightening import control on food products from Fukushima and its neighbouring areas while maintaining communication with the relevant trade
我們亦理解有漁業經營者擔心日本政府排放核廢水會嚴重影響海洋生態、市民大眾對海產食品的信心及漁民的生計。
We also understand many fishery operators are concerned that the discharge of wastewater from the Fukushima Nuclear Power Station into the ocean by the Japanese Government would have serious impacts on marine ecosystem public confidence in seafood products and fishermens livelihood
漁農自然護理署會一直留意本地漁穫的輻射水平，包括定期在香港水域的魚類養殖區採集養殖魚類樣本進行測試。
The Agriculture Fisheries and Conservation Department will keep in view the radiation levels of local catches including conducting regular sampling tests on cultured fish collected at fish culture zones in Hong Kong waters
我們會密切留意事態發展，按情況對本地漁民提供合適的支援。
We will keep track of the development and render appropriate support to local fishermen when necessary
我們已向日方表明，在國際社會未有共識前，日本當局不應單方面將福島核電站廢水排放至海洋，以免對環境造成不可逆轉的影響。
We have relayed clearly to the Japanese authorities that they should not discharge the nuclear wastewater into the ocean unilaterally without the consensus of the international community so as to avoid bringing about irreversible impacts on the environment
日本當局必須以高度透明的方式向國際社會及公眾發放所有有關福島核電站核廢水排放計劃的資訊，以釋除公眾對核廢水排放的疑慮， 否則只會令公眾對日本進口食品的安全失去信心。
The Japanese authorities shall disseminate all information relating to the nuclear wastewater discharge plan of the Fukushima Nuclear Power Station to the international community and the public in a highly transparent manner . Or else it will only lead to loss of public confidence in the safety of the food imported from Japan
據了解，國際原子能機構擬成立技術工作組，跟進和監測日本排放核廢水情況，而國家外交部亦表示，國際原子能機構已經確認，將會邀請中國專家加入正籌建的相關技術工作組。
It was understood that the International Atomic Energy Agency IAEA has proposed to set up a technical working group to follow up and monitor Japans discharge of the nuclear wastewater . The Chinese Ministry of Foreign Affairs MFA remarked that IAEA has confirmed that it would invite experts from China to join the proposed technical working group
我想看看特區政府在向日方索取資料時，有否提出這個問題，還是純粹向日方索取資料，例如核廢水內究竟含有多少輻射物質，以及日方曾進行多少次檢測等。
I would like to know whether the SAR Government had raised this question while asking the Japanese authorities for information or simply asked the Japanese authorities to provide information on for example the amount of radioactive substances in nuclear wastewater and the number of tests conducted by the Japanese authorities
如果政府仍聲稱日方符合國際標準，似乎不太符合市民的期望。
The Government might fall short of public expectation by insisting that the Japanese authorities have met international standards
除食安中心外，香港天文台亦有抽取環境樣本進行恆常的環境輻射監測。
Apart from CFS the Hong Kong Observatory has also been conducting regular environmental radiation monitoring on environmental samples
我想問特區政府，除了被動地相信日本政府所簽發的證明書外，可否採取更主動地確保所有運送到香港的食品皆不免受核輻射污染？
I would like to ask the SAR Government Apart from passively believing in the certificates issued by the Japanese Government can it take more proactive action to ensure that all food products transported to Hong Kong are free from nuclear radiation contamination?
我希望政府會有更主動和積極的做法，局長，可以嗎？
I hope that the Government will take a more proactive and positive approach . Secretary is it possible?
其實，我們一直對日本食品採取主動的態度。
In fact we have been adopting a proactive attitude on Japanese food
當知悉日方有計劃在兩年後將核廢水排放出海洋後，我們更為關注，並已立即着手處理。
Upon learning Japans plan to discharge nuclear wastewater into the sea in two years time we have heightened our concern and taken immediate action in response
直到目前為止，我們並沒有發現任何異樣。
So far we have not found any irregularities
不過，基於有關的消息，我們會加倍留意和密切監測。
However in the light of Japans announcement we will pay extra attention and keep a close watch on the situation
主席，我想問局長，她剛才表示，在國際社會未有共識前，日本當局不應單方面排放核廢水。
President I have a question for the Secretary . She has just mentioned that the Japanese authorities should not discharge the nuclear wastewater unilaterally without the consensus of the international community
請問當局會否考慮全面禁止日本食物進口香港，並與國家採取一致的態度？
Will the authorities consider imposing a total ban on Japanese food imports to Hong Kong and adopt the same stance as our country?
主席，多謝何君堯議員的補充質詢。
President I thank Dr Junius HO for his supplementary question
當然，我們會與國家密切聯繫，亦了解中國外交部已表示，日本單方面決定排放核廢水是極不負責任的做法，並對有關決定表示嚴重關切。
We will certainly maintain close liaison with our country . Also we realized that MFA has expressed grave concern about Japans unilateral decision to discharge nuclear wastewater which is an extremely irresponsible act
中國外交部亦指出，日方在未窮盡安全處置手段的情況下，不顧國內外質疑和反對，未經與周邊國家和國際社會充分協商而單方面這樣做，將嚴重影響國際公共健康安全和周邊國家人民的切身利益。
MFA has added that Japans unilateral action without exhausting all alternative safe disposal methods in defiance of questions and objections at home and abroad and without fully consulting neighbouring countries and the international community will seriously threaten international public health safety and the immediate interests of people living in its neighbours
當然，我們知悉外交部已就事件表態，亦強烈敦促日方妥善處理福島核電站事故的核廢水，對此我們十分支持。
Of course we are aware that MFA has indicated its stance on Japans decision and strongly urged the Japanese authorities to properly handle the nuclear wastewater from the Fukushima Nuclear Power Station . We are fully supportive of MFA
由於海洋污染等事宜屬國際問題，涉及外交事務，所以我們已向外交部駐港特派員公署反映香港業界的憂慮。
Given that issues such as marine pollution are international issues in the realm of foreign affairs we have relayed the concerns of local sectors to the Office of the Commissioner of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs in Hong Kong
我亦知悉，商務及經濟發展局局長已向日本駐港總領事表達我們的憂慮。
I am also aware that the Secretary for Commerce and Economic Development has expressed our concerns to the Consul - General of Japan in Hong Kong
當然，我們也會視乎事態發展，我不排除會親自向日本駐港總領事反映我們的憂慮。
Of course depending on the development of the situation I do not rule out meeting the Consul - General of Japan in person to relay our concerns
主席，我們沒有特別補充。
President we have nothing special to add
主席，政府於去年委託香港鐵路有限公司推展兩條新鐵路，即屯門南延線和北環線。
President last year the Government entrusted the MTR Corporation Limited MTRCL to take forward the development of two new railways namely Tuen Mun South Extension and Northern Link
在"擁有權"及"鐵路加物業發展"模式下，港鐵公司負責興建及營運該兩條新鐵路，並會獲政府批出鐵路車站上蓋物業的發展權，以補貼鐵路建造費用。
Under the ownership approach and the Rail - plus - Property development model MTRCL is responsible for the construction and operation of the two new railways and it will be granted the development rights of the topside properties at the railway stations by the Government to subsidize the railway construction costs
就此，政府可否告知本會：一預計分別會在上述兩條新鐵路的車站上蓋興建多少個住宅單位；及二會否與港鐵公司商討，把該等住宅單位至少一半撥作居者有其屋計劃單位發售；如會，詳情為何；如否，原因為何？
In this connection will the Government inform this Council 1 of the respective expected numbers of residential units to be built atop the stations of the aforesaid two new railways; and 2 whether it will discuss with MTRCL the allocation of at least half of such residential units for sale as Home Ownership Scheme units; if so of the details; if not the reasons for that?
主席，就葉劉淑儀議員的質詢，現綜合答覆如下： 《鐵路發展策略2014》建議7個新鐵路方案。
President my consolidated reply to Mrs Regina IPs question is as follows The Railway Development Strategy 2014 RDS - 2014 recommends seven new railway schemes
經審視香港鐵路有限公司提交的建議書後，考慮到各項目的迫切性及可能帶來的土地發展潛力，同時務求讓不同的鐵路項目能夠有序地分階段進行，讓本港的鐵路網絡得以持續發展，運輸及房屋局在去年邀請港鐵公司就屯門南延綫及北環綫展開詳細規劃及設計，並將以"擁有 權"模式為項目融資的基礎上，與港鐵公司分別就上述項目的財務安排進行談判。
Having examined the proposals submitted by the MTR Corporation Limited MTRCL and considered the urgency of various projects together with the land development potential that may be brought about while allowing a continuous development of Hong Kongs railway network with phased implementation of the railway projects in an orderly manner the Transport and Housing Bureau THB invited MTRCL to commence the detailed planning and design for the Tuen Mun South TMS Extension and Northern Link NOL last year and will carry out negotiation with MTRCL on the financing arrangement of the above mentioned projects respectively on the basis of the ownership approach for funding the projects
在"擁有權"模式下，港鐵公司負責新鐵路項目的財務、設計、建造、營運和維修保養，並最終擁有該鐵路。
Under the ownership approach MTRCL will be responsible for the financing design construction operation and maintenance of the new railway and ultimately owns the railway
鐵路項目在扣除預計總開支後的預計總收入現值，若少於預期的資本回報，即屬"財務上不可行"，不足的資金差額需要填補。
A railway project is considered not financially viable if the present value of all its revenues net of expenditures fall short of the expected return on capital . This funding gap will need to be filled
在獲得政府資助填補項目資金差額後，港鐵公司會承擔所有與新鐵路的設計、建造、營運和維修保養有關的商業風險。
Upon receipt of the funding support from the Government to bridge the funding gap MTRCL would bear all the commercial risks associated with the design construction operation and maintenance of the new railway
即使新鐵路日後的收益比預期低，政府亦沒有義務再向港鐵公司提供任何資助。
The Government has no obligation to provide any further funding support to MTRCL even if the future revenue of the new railway turns out to be lower than expected
政府過往曾以不同形式填補資金差額，包括用於西港島綫的非經常補助金及大部分其他項目採用的"鐵路加物業"模式。
The Government had adopted different methods to bridge the funding gap in the past including capital grant for the West Island Line and the Railway - plus - Property RP model adopted in most other projects
由於每個鐵路項目也有其獨特性，財政資助形式應視乎個別項目而定，政府會就個別項目的資助形式考慮最適切的方案。
Since each railway project has its own uniqueness the form of funding support will depend on the individual project . The Government will consider the most appropriate method for funding each individual project
政府將與港鐵公司分別就屯門南延綫及北環綫的財務安排進行談判。
The Government will carry out negotiation with MTRCL on the financing arrangement of the TMS Extension and the NOL respectively
有關過程將會與項目的詳細規劃及設計程序同步進行。
The negotiation will be conducted concurrently with the detailed planning and design process of the projects
就屯門南延綫及北環綫而言，兩者的詳細規劃及設計工作正在進行中。
In respect of the TMS Extension and the NOL the detailed planning and design for both projects is in progress
我們將連同獨立顧問仔細及嚴謹地審查港鐵公司擬備的項目預算成本及收入，並會設法降低項目開支、增加預算收入，藉以減少須填補的資金差額，並核實"鐵路加物業"用地的物業估值。
We will with the support of independent consultants examine the estimated project costs and revenue prepared by MTRCL carefully and rigorously . We will endeavour to bring down the project expenditure and increase the estimated revenue so as to narrow down the funding gap to be bridged and verify the valuation of the RP sites
假設政府會以"鐵路加物業"模式為有關項目提供財政資助，我們需要先確定有關項目的資金差額及完成相關有需要的改變土地用途程序，方可確定有關物業發展的規模。
Assuming that the Government will provide funding support for the relevant projects using the RP model we will need to determine the funding gap of the relevant project first and complete the relevant procedures for change of land use if necessary before confirming the scale of the relevant property development
鑒於批出物業發展權的首要目的是填補鐵路項目的資金差額，過往"鐵路加物業"用地一般用作發展私營房屋，以充分利用土地的價值。
Given that the primary purpose of granting property development right is to bridge the funding gap of a railway project the RP sites were generally used for development of private housing in the past to maximize the value of the sites
如果將"鐵路加物業"用地用作興建資助出售房屋，將減少物業發展可帶來的利潤，有關建議是否可行，取決於擬議的鐵路項目沿線是否有足夠土地用作公營及私營房屋發展，同時又能產生足夠利潤填補項目資金差額。
If the RP site is used for the construction of Subsidised Sale Flats it will reduce the profit that can be brought about by the property development . The feasibility of such recommendation depends on whether there are sufficient sites along the proposed railway for public and private housing development while generating sufficient profit to bridge the funding gap
由於屯門南延綫全長只有約2.4公里，鐵路沿線可作"鐵路加物業"發展的用地相對有限。
As the TMS Extension is only about 2.4 km in length the availability of RP sites along the railway alignment is relatively limited
至於全長約10.7公里的北環綫，我們會因應項目的情況檢視是否有空間落實有關建議。
For the 10.7 - km long NOL we will review whether there is room for adopting such recommendation in light of the circumstances of the project
事實上，政府一直探討鐵路附近用地的發展潛力，以增加公營房屋供應。
In fact the Government has been exploring the development potential of sites adjourning railways to increase public housing supply
至於"資金差額"的補貼方法，正如我剛才所說，我們可以用現金或其他方法。
As for the method of bridging the funding gap as I have just said we can use cash or other methods
至於房屋供應方面，政府已非常努力。
As for housing supply the Government has been working very hard
主席，港鐵公司憑"鐵路加物業發展"的綜合發展模式賺取不少利潤。
President MTRCL has made a lot of profits with its integrated development model of RP
根據港鐵公司截至2020年12月31日止年度的經審核業績公告，港鐵公司利用鐵路網絡所帶來的主場優勢開拓物業發展業務，雖然在疫情打擊各行各業下，在去年上半年帶來52億元的利潤，更抵銷了客運業務的收益倒退。
According to the Announcement of Audited Results for the year ended 31 December 2020 MTRCL has leveraged its home advantage brought about by the railway network to develop property development business . This has not only generated a profit of 5.2 billion in the first half of last year when various industries were hard hit by the epidemic but has also offset the decline in revenue from passenger operations
在2020年上半年，港鐵公司的基本業務利潤同比增長約64%。
In the first half of 2020 MTRCLs underlying business profit recorded a year - on - year increase of about 64 %
政府說害怕港鐵公司會在"擁有權"模式下出現虧蝕，但從數字所見是從來沒有虧蝕，而且在疫情及"黑暴"下還有很大的利潤。
The Government said it feared that MTRCL might suffer losses under the ownership approach but judging from the figures it has never suffered any losses at all . Rather huge profits have been made amid the epidemic and black - clad violence
主席，多謝容議員剛才提出的意見。
President I thank Ms YUNG for the views expressed just now
大家也清楚，鐵路發展是一個投資龐大且觸及層面非常複雜的課題。
As we all know railway development is a very complicated issue involving heavy investment
當然，"資金差額"的補貼又是另一件事，但"鐵路加物業"模式在世界很多國家或地區均有採用。
Of course the bridging of the funding gap is another matter but the RP model has been adopted in many countries or regions around the world
最重要的是，希望大家也會支持，第一，讓有關項目盡快啟動，以釋放沿線土地的發展潛力，為香港市民提供更多土地作居住、商業以至其他社區用途。
Most importantly it is hoped that Members will support firstly the expeditious commencement of the project to unleash the development potential of the land along the railway lines so that more land can be made available to the people of Hong Kong for residential commercial and other community purposes
除此以外，我們亦需要保障公共資源用得其所，確保公眾利益受到保護。
Apart from this we also need to ensure that public resources are properly used and public interest is protected
因此，大家剛才提及的關注點，我們會在與港鐵公司談判的過程中一併考慮。
Therefore we will take into consideration the concerns raised by Members in the course of our negotiation with MTRCL
他有沒有跟港鐵公司研究過，以及會否這樣做？
Has he explored the issue with MTRCL and will he do so?
