運輸科負責推動本港陸海空交通及物流發展，而政府在2014年公布《鐵路發展策略2014》，提出發展7條新鐵路線，工程業界十分支持。
The Transport Branch is responsible for promoting the development of land sea and air transportation as well as logistics in Hong Kong . The Government announced the Railway Development Strategy 2014 in 2014 proposing the development of seven new railway lines which has gained strong support from the engineering sector
可惜相隔6年，當局在4月7日才拍板興建東涌綫延線，宣布邀請香港鐵路有限公司作詳細規劃和設計。
Regrettably six years have passed . The authorities have only made the decision to construct the Tung Chung Line Extension on 7 April and invited the MTR Corporation Limited to proceed with the detailed planning and design of the project
我和工程業界會繼續向政府"追數"，要求政府加快工作。
The engineering sector and I will continue to press the Government to speed up its work
假如陳志全議員的修正案獲得通過，新鐵路項目勢必再次受阻。
The new railway projects will definitely be hampered again should Mr CHAN Chi - chuens amendment be passed
主席，根據以上所述，我們不難了解到，反對派議員的修正案一旦獲得通過，不但會令特區政府的施政受阻，本港的經濟發展、改善民生的工作亦會受到拖累，我們必須極力反對這些"攬炒"的修正案。
Chairman in light of the above it is not difficult to understand that should the amendments proposed by Members of the opposition camp be passed not only policy administration by the SAR Government will be hindered but the economic development of Hong Kong and our efforts to improve peoples livelihood will also be undermined . We must strongly oppose such mutually destructive amendments
在星期二的會議上，我向警務處處長鄧炳強提出一個問題。
At the meeting on Tuesday I put a question to Commissioner of Police Chris TANG
他就有關報告解釋，2019年的整體破案率比2018年下跌超過8%。
Regarding the report he explained that there was a drop of over 8 % in the overall detection rate in 2019 when compared with 2018
"毒品罪 行一直為警方重點主動打擊的項目之一，但自2019年6月，警方需調動大量警力應付一系列與'反修例'事件相關的案件及公眾活動，因此2019年的毒品罪行數字未必完全反映該年度的毒品實際情況。
Drug offences have been one of the major offences the Police have been fighting against by way of proactive actions . However since large amount of police resources had been redeployed to the numerous anti - extradition amendment bill related cases and public order events since June 2019 the number of drug cases registered in 2019 might not reflect the actual drug situation of the year
在財政預算案中，香港海關提供了另一些數字給我們作參考。
In the Budget the Customs and Excise Department CED has provided other figures for our reference
2019年檢獲冰毒約251公斤，較2018年的約147公斤上升約100公斤。
In 2019 some 251 kg of ice were seized an increase of some 100 kg compared with the 147 kg or so in 2018
其他泛民議員的發言側重於警暴，而我說的是警隊的紀律、操守。
While other pan - democratic Members focus on police brutality in their speeches I will instead speak on the discipline and conduct of the Police Force
今天有一宗很轟動的新聞，是有關西九龍總區反黑組警署警長手持2公斤冰毒和10萬元現金，在酒店不知進行甚麼交易而被捕。
There was a piece of shocking news today that a station sergeant of the anti - triad unit of the Kowloon West Regional Headquarters was arrested when he was undertaking a sort of a transaction with 2 kg of ice and 100,000 cash in a hotel
當時旺角警區特別職務隊正在帝苑酒店的兩間房間調查一男一女，在房間內找到400克冰毒、可卡因和"K仔"。
The Special Duties Team of the Mong Kok Police District was then investigating one man and one woman in two rooms of the Royal Garden Hotel and 400 g of ice cocaine and ketamine were found in the rooms
昨天警方在房間檢獲400克冰毒，以法庭過去的判案指標，有關人士將會判刑14至18年。
As the Police seized 400 g of ice in the rooms yesterday the person concerned may face a sentence of 14 to 18 years according to past court judgments
在同一隊警察執行職務時，休班警署警長手執2公斤冰毒被當場逮捕。
When the same team of policemen were discharging their duties an off - duty station sergeant carrying 2 kg of ice was caught red - handed
一名警署警長上街買兩罐汽水，在酒店手持2公斤冰毒，剛巧遇上同事執行職務，被當場逮捕。
A station sergeant who had purchased two bottles of soda on the street and was carrying 2 kg of ice in a hotel ran into his colleagues on duty and was caught red - handed
原來在兩個月前，有300公斤冰毒被檢獲，現在懷疑有人監守自盜......
It turns out that two months ago some 300 kg of ice were seized and someone is now suspected of stealing what was entrusted to his care
誰是西九龍總區的指揮官呢？
Who is the Regional Commander of Kowloon West?
2020年第一季發現這宗大生意，究竟香港是否毒品貿易的轉口港呢？
Given the discovery of such a big deal in the first quarter of 2020 is Hong Kong actually a drug entrepot?
警方竟然敢說嚴重毒品案數字較上一年下跌五成。
The Police have surprisingly said that there was a 50 % drop in the number of serious drug cases compared with the previous year
香港工會聯合會郭偉强議員剛才多次批評民主派如何破壞香港及何其差劣等，我真的覺得有點可笑。
I really find it a bit ridiculous to hear Mr KWOK Wai - keung of the Hong Kong Federation of Trade Unions FTU just now criticizing the pro - democracy camp time and again of damaging Hong Kong and performing badly
難道選舉不是量度民意的最好平台嗎？
Is election not the best platform for gauging public views?
時至今天，經歷區議會的洗禮，卻依然在說自己如何公義及如何為香港。
Today after going through the baptism of DC election they still brag about their righteousness and their commitment to Hong Kong
究竟真正破壞香港的是哪些派別呢？
Which faction or group is truly destroying Hong Kong?
作為政黨及服務市民的代議士，我們既然獲得市民的支持，難道不可以爭取議會內過半數議席嗎？
As representatives of political parties and of the people why cant we strive to obtain the majority seats in the Council with the support of members of the public?
很多市民覺得這才是香港品牌的經濟，是本土情懷，是支持香港本土小店的特色。
Many people considered that only such an economy can promote Hong Kong brands manifest local sentiment and support local small shops with characteristics
昨天，一群中西區區議員按照區議會賦予的職能召開政制及保安事務委員會會議。
Yesterday a group of members from Central and Western DC exercised the functions conferred by DC and called for a meeting of the Constitutional and Security Affairs Committee
這次在開會前12小時才通知會議場地會鎖門，不能開會，這是甚麼態度呢？
This time the relevant DC was informed 12 hours before the meeting that the meeting venue would be locked and no meeting could be held . What kind of attitude is this?
我希望在議事廳告訴全港市民，現在的暴政就是這樣對付民主派的。
I would like to tell all Hong Kong people in this Chamber how the present tyranny suppresses the pro - democracy camp
難道我們希望香港的學生和年輕人只擁有內地的視野，而無須理會世界其他地方？
Do we expect Hong Kong students and young people to embrace merely the vision of the Mainland without having to pay heed of other places of the world?
我想告訴他，從觀察民意所得，首先是沒有中學生願意參加這類交流團，原因正是反修例事件。
I want to tell him that as observed from public opinion first of all no secondary school students are willing to participate in this kind of exchange tours and the reason is precisely because of the opposition to the proposed legislative amendments
大家試回想，在整個"反送中"運動中共有多少名中學生被捕？
Can Members still recall how many secondary school students have been arrested throughout the anti - extradition to China movement?
哪間中學沒有醞釀罷課？
Is there any secondary school which has not plotted class boycott?
哪間中學罷課沒 有被教育局施壓、打壓或用行政手段懲罰？
Is there any secondary school that has not been pressurized suppressed or punished through administrative means by the Education Bureau after the class boycott?
學生會如何被勸諭噤聲？
How have student associations been advised to keep silent?
這正是在"反送中"運動下，中小學生不願意參加內地交流團的原因。
This is precisely why under the anti - extradition to China movement primary and secondary school students are reluctant to participate in the exchange tours to the Mainland
他們有獨立分析，即使中小學生也有批判性思想及獨立的判斷。
They all have independent thinking and even primary and secondary school students have critical thinking and independent judgment
如果交流團只是單方面的"洗腦"，只提供單方面的資訊，我認為這筆公帑是白花的，不應該批出有關的預算開支。
If the exchange tours only seek to unilaterally brainwash the students and provide them with lopsided information I think the public money will be wasted and thus the relevant estimated expenditure should not be approved
當然，在現今世代，無論是公務員、教師或學生都必須與內地融合交流。
Of course nowadays it is important for civil servants teachers and students to integrate and exchange with the Mainland
主席，我首先想就兩項關於民政事務局及民政事務總署的修正案發言。
Chairman to start with I wish to speak on the two amendments relating to the Home Affairs Bureau and the Home Affairs Department
兩項修正案的內容分別為：為削減分目000而將總目53削減418萬元，即削減大約相當於2020-2021年度民政事務局局長全年薪酬預算開支，以及為削減分目而將總目削減42,346,800元，即削減大約相當於2020-2021年度18區民政事務專員薪金預算開支。
The two amendments respectively read That head 53 be reduced by 4,180,000 in respect of subhead 000 that means to deduct an amount approximately equivalent to the annual estimated expenditure for the emoluments of the Secretary for Home Affairs in 2020 - 2021 and that head 63 be reduced by 42,346,800 in respect of subhead 000 that means to deduct an amount approximately equivalent to the estimated expenditure for the emoluments of the 18 District Officers in 2020 - 2021
主席，民政事務局多年在露宿者、無家者的議題上，除了"卸膊"，就只有"卸膊"。
Chairman regarding the issues of street sleepers and the homeless the Home Affairs Bureau has done nothing except shirking responsibilities over the years
我可以想象，如果張達明能在現場致辭，他一定會說，這是一齣關於香港社會問題的電影，希望透過這齣電影，大眾可以關注露宿者、"麥難民"的苦況。
I can imagine if CHEUNG Tat - ming could address the audience at the scene he would definitely say this is a film about the social problems in Hong Kong . It is hoped that through this film public attention can be drawn to the plight of street sleepers and McRefugees
張達明的演技，評審都看到了，但現實中，無家者的處境有否被世人和政府所見？
CHEUNG Tat - mings acting skill was noted by the adjudicators but in real life was the predicament of the homeless noticed by the community at large and the Government?
抑或無家者已變成"無聲者"、"無影無蹤者"或"無主孤魂"？
Or have the homeless become the voiceless imperceptibles or outcasts?
我所說的"無主孤魂"有兩個意思：第一，當然是指他們無法承擔昂貴租金，因此被迫露宿街頭，或寄居在24小時營業的快餐店。
My mention of the word outcasts bears two meanings . First it certainly means that they cannot afford the exorbitant rent . As a result they are forced to sleep in the street or stay in fast food shops which operate round the clock
另一個意思是指政府從來沒有正視街上露宿者的問題，大家想查問哪個部門負責，但各部門你推我讓，互相"射波"，於是他們便成為無主孤魂。
The other meaning is that the Government has never squarely addressed the issue of street sleepers . We want to enquire which department is responsible but the departments just pass the buck shirking the responsibility onto each other . Subsequently they have become like outcasts
根據民政事務總署的網頁，該署其中一項主要工作如下："在發生緊急事故和天災的時候及之後，協助提醒市民保持警覺，並為市民提供臨時庇護站，以及協調各項支援服務和善後工作。
According to the homepage of the Home Affairs Department one of its main tasks is to assist in alerting residents and providing temporary shelters as well as coordinating relief services in emergency situations and during or after natural disasters
"但實情是，當疫情如火如荼之時，快餐店"麥當勞"一度暫停堂食業務，意味全港數百名"麥難民"再次無家可歸，連唯一有瓦遮頭的容身之處也失去。
In reality however in the heat of the epidemic the fast food shop McDonalds suspended its dine - in services implying that once again hundreds of McRefugees across the territory could stay nowhere having lost their only shelter
本來這是當局正視"麥難民"問題的契機，至少應該檢討一下現時受政府資助或由社會福利機構自負盈虧的宿舍數目，甚至為"麥難民"提供臨時居所，再協助他們就業或給予翻身的機會。
This could have been a good opportunity for the authorities to squarely address the issue of McRefugees . At least they should review the number of hostels currently subsidized by the Government or operated by social welfare organizations on a self - financing basis . They should even provide temporary accommodation for McRefugees and then help them seek employment or give them an opportunity to turn over a new leaf
"麥難民"和無家者的要求很卑微，只希望政府可以開放臨時中心讓他們入住，即使因為疫情關係而暫時未能做到，至少也應開放球場或公共浴室供他們使用。
The request of McRefugees and the homeless is most humble . They merely hope that the Government can open temporary centres for them to stay . Even if it cannot be done at the moment due to the epidemic situation at least the stadiums or public bathhouses should be opened for their use
但是，不論有多少民主派議員和區議員去信民政事務局，不知道時任局長劉江華是否因為知悉自己即將下台，所以繼續發揮其"神隱"本色，對信件不瞅不睬、不聞不問。
However no matter how many Legislative Council and District Council Members of the pro - democracy camp had written to the Home Affairs Bureau the then Secretary LAU Kong - wah perhaps knowing that he would soon leave office continued to give play to his invisibility turning a blind eye and remaining indifferent to the letters
即是由2001年至今，不論是福利事務委員會或民政事務委員會，幾乎每年都會討論有關為露宿者提供支援服務的議題，卻完全是白費氣力，完全是浪費時間，完全是"倒水落海"。
But there was no clear answer as to which one was the corresponding department for the overall policy . What does the whole picture illustrate? . That means since 2001 discussion was held be it by the Panel on Welfare Services or the Panel on Home Affairs almost every year about provision of support services for street sleepers but it was a total waste of efforts and time just like pouring water into the sea
誰可以告訴我，民政事務局或民政事務總署除了懂得清場外，還為無家者、露宿者、"麥難民"做過甚麼？
Who can tell me what the Home Affairs Bureau or Home Affairs Department has done for street sleepers and McRefugees except clearance?
局長及18區民政事務專員是否對得住自己的薪水？
Do the Secretary and the 18 District Officers deserve their salaries?
我感到遺憾的是，民政事務局對露宿者不但好事做不來，亦沒有阻止壞事發生，甚至縱容下屬落井下石，助紂為虐，有些個案給我的感覺就是他們欺負弱勢社群。
I find it regrettable that not only did the Home Affairs Bureau fail to do anything good for street sleepers but it also did not stop bad things from happening and even condoned its staffs behaviour of adding insult to injury aiding and abetting evil - doers . Some cases gave me the impression that they bullied the disadvantaged in society
我想與大家分享我最近跟進的個案。
I would like to share with Members a case recently followed up by me
今年2月，沒有佩戴委任證的便衣警員先後兩次到深水埗通州街公園，以反罪惡的名義，打爛露宿者的家當，甚至連一包米也要割破，倒至滿地都是米，更甚的是對露宿者動粗。
In February this year plain - clothed police officers not wearing their warrant cards went to Tung Chau Street Park in Sham Shui Po twice . In the name of an anti - crime operation they smashed the street sleepers belongings and even ripped open a pack of rice spilling the rice all over the ground . What is worse they used violence against the street sleepers
街友事後向牧師求助，其後牧師通知我，我再致函深水埗警署指揮官，要求查明事件。
Afterwards the street sleepers sought assistance from a priest who later informed me about it . I then wrote to the Divisional Commander of Sham Shui Po Police Station requesting him to investigate the incident and find out the truth
其間，牧師一度收到警民關係組的電話恐嚇，表示如果他不作出澄清，便是不負責任，要求他立即在面書上澄清。
During that time the priest received a call from the Police Community Relations Office which threatened him that if he did not make a clarification he was being irresponsible . He was asked to immediately make a clarification on Facebook
我真的很擔心牧師被誣衊，於是致函康樂及文化事務署，要求康文署保存通州街公園閉路電視拍下有關事件的錄影帶，以及安排時間讓街友、牧師、我和律師一同前往翻看片段。
Really worried that the priest would be framed I wrote to the Leisure and Cultural Services Department LCSD requesting it to keep the videos about the incident recorded by the closed - circuit television in Tung Chau Street Park and make an arrangement for the street sleepers the priest the lawyer and me to watch the footage together
事實上，一名涉嫌刑事毀壞的警員已被停職及拘捕，證明事件所言非虛。
As a matter of fact a police officer suspected of criminal damage has been interdicted and arrested thus proving what was said about the incident is true
經過兩個月的爭取，我們原本約定在4月29日讓街友、牧 師和我一同在康文署翻看片段，豈料在約定當天，康文署竟然臨時說按警方要求，拒絕讓事主翻看錄影片段，將整項安排取消或延遲。
After lobbying for two months we had originally made an appointment for the street sleepers the priest and me to watch the footage together in LCSD on 29 April . To our surprise on the day of the appointment LCSD suddenly said that at the request of the Police it would not let the people concerned watch the footage and cancelled or postponed the entire appointment
我在此再次嚴厲譴責民政事務局轄下的康文署竟然與警暴合謀，以行政程序多番刁難，包庇警暴，欺凌街友。
Here I severely censure LCSD under the Home Affairs Bureau again for blatantly collaborating with the Police repeatedly making things difficult through administrative procedures shielding police violence and bullying street sleepers
我已致函康文署署長，投訴相關經理向警方泄露有關翻看錄影片段的安排，並委託律師申請法庭禁制令，禁止署方刪除有關片段以毀滅證據。
I have written to the Director of Leisure and Cultural Services to complain about the disclosure of the arrangement for watching the footage to the Police by the relevant manager . I have also commissioned a lawyer to apply to the Court for an injunction order to prohibit LCSD from deleting the relevant footage to destroy the evidence
我在此正式要求局長積極跟進事件，不要包庇任何人，不要沆瀣一氣。
Here I formally request the Secretary to actively follow up the incident and not to shelter anyone or act in collusion with wrongdoers
另外，我想就總目141，分目000發言，有關修正案提出削減大約相當於2020-2021年度勞工及福利局局長全年薪酬預算開支，即418萬元。
Besides I would like to speak on subhead 000 of head 141 . The relevant amendment proposes to deduct an amount approximately equivalent to the annual estimated expenditure for the emoluments of the Secretary for Labour and Welfare in 2020 - 2021 which is 4,180,000
我支持這項修正案的主要原因，是勞工及福利局局長過去並沒有做好相關工作。
The main reason why I support this amendment is that the Secretary for Labour and Welfare did not do a proper job
在疫情期間，明知"打工仔"面對就業不足和失業問題，但支援勞工的工作卻做得很慢，未能聚焦協助最水深火熱的一群。
During the epidemic outbreak wage earners were obviously faced with problems of underemployment and unemployment but the provision of support for workers was slow and failed to focus on helping those in desperate straits
主席，請放心，我會清楚說明這個觀點的內容。
Chairman no worries . I will clearly expound on this point
香港經濟環境轉差，加上肺炎疫情在農曆新年後爆發，香港政府早已預計失業率和就業不足率會上升。
Given the deterioration of the economic situation in Hong Kong coupled with the pneumonia outbreak after the Lunar New Year the Hong Kong Government had long expected an increase in the unemployment and underemployment rates
明知失業潮會來臨，政府應該盡快回應，急市民之所急。
Being well aware of an upcoming tide of unemployment the Government should respond expeditiously and address the peoples pressing needs
財務委員會在2月21日已批出第一輪為數300億元的防疫抗疫基金，當中包括支援基層市民應對疫情和經濟下行風險的項目，向合資格的在職家庭津貼住戶及學生資助住戶發放特別津貼。
On 21 February the Finance Committee already granted the first round of the Anti - epidemic Fund AEF in the sum of 30 billion including the disbursement of a special allowance for households eligible for Working Family Allowance and Student Financial Assistance supporting the grass roots in response to the epidemic and the downside risks of the economy
局長不單對沒有領取在職家庭津貼和學生資助的住戶不聞不問，而且根據政府提交的文件，這項特別津貼會在年中才發放。
Not only is the Secretary totally indifferent to households that are not recipients of the Working Family Allowance and Student Financial Assistance . Also according to the paper submitted by the Government this special allowance will not be disbursed until the middle of the year
事實上，第一輪防疫抗疫基金的主要措施是為了救市，政府迷信滴漏效應，覺得只要能挽救零售業和飲食商戶，讓他們渡過這場疫情，工人便不會遭裁員或減薪。
In fact the major measures in the first round of the AEF sought to rescue the market . Blindly believing in the trickle - down effect the Government thought that as long as it could save the operators in the retail and catering industries thereby enabling them to tide over this epidemic workers would be spared from layoffs or wage reduction
預算案繼續朝這個方向走，以"撐企業、保就業"為目標，繼續支援企業救市，這種救市不救人的安排，真的不能夠接受。
The Budget continued to go in this direction aiming to support enterprises and safeguard jobs giving continual support for enterprises to rescue the market . Such an arrangement for rescuing the market instead of the people was indeed unacceptable
但是，勞工及福利局局長在推出第二輪，即涉及1,375億元的防疫抗疫基金時，仍然繼續採用這個安排和方向，動用810億元推行"保就業"計劃。
However when rolling out the second round of AEF involving 137.5 billion the Secretary for Labour and Welfare continued to adopt this arrangement and direction utilizing 81 billion to launch the Employment Support Scheme ESS
在4月，疫情加劇，政府推出限聚令，失業情況更嚴重。
In April as the epidemic escalated the Government implemented an order to prohibit group gatherings and unemployment became even more serious
其實局長可以在第一輪防疫抗疫基金宣布一個多月後推行新計劃，以彌補第一輪基金的不足。
Actually the Secretary could have introduced a new scheme a month or so after the announcement of the first round of AEF to make up for the inadequacy of its first round
這項"保就業"計劃可算是一項天才之作，借"打工仔"的名義，聲稱保就業，但不保工資，為僱主提供財政支援，這種亂用公帑的方式實在是世界級，聞所未聞，見所未見。
This ESS can be regarded as the work of a genius . On the pretext of helping wage earners it provides employers with financial support claiming to safeguard jobs but not wages . Such a way of lavishing public funds is indeed unheard - of and unseen across the world
綜觀全球各地政府推出的抗疫特別措施，主要是協助被迫放假的"打工仔"和失業人士。
Taking an overall view of the special measures launched by governments around the world one would see that they mainly assist wage earners forced to take leave and the unemployed
當然，各地政府亦會因應疫情而支援個別行業。
Certainly different governments would also support individual industries in response to the epidemic situation
但是，以這種不成比例的方式使用公帑來支援企業發放薪金，實在是絕無僅有，簡直令人震驚。
Yet such disproportionate use of public funds to support enterprises payment of wages really cannot be found elsewhere . This is really shocking
"保就業"計劃不單沒有支援失業人士，僱主甚至可以透過更換僱員名單，以親屬或其他人士領取津貼，收取回佣。
Not only does ESS lack support for the unemployed . Employers may even receive kickbacks by replacing the list of employees having their relatives or other people collect the subsidies
局長多次表示要鼓勵中老年就業，並收緊了長者綜合社會保障援助的年齡門檻。
The Secretary has reiterated the need to encourage people from middle to old age to work . The age threshold of the Elderly Comprehensive Social Security Assistance CSSA has also been raised
但是，保就業措施並無惠及長者，長者因為無須就強制性公積金供款而未能受惠。
However the measures for safeguarding jobs do not benefit the elderly . The elderly cannot benefit because they do not have to make any Mandatory Provident Fund MPF contribution
過去政府經常表示公帑要用得其所，但這項"保就業"計劃卻胡亂"派錢"。
In the past the Government often said that public funds must be used properly but this ESS just hands out money casually
受疫情影響但沒有強積金供款的自僱人士不能受惠，因為疫情而營業額上升，賺至盤滿缽滿的企業，例如外賣平台、網購店和超級市場，卻可以申請政府的補貼。
Self - employees who are affected by the epidemic but do not make any MPF contribution cannot benefit . Yet enterprises making fat profits from the increase in business turnover in the wake of the epidemic such as takeaway platforms online shops and supermarkets may apply for government subsidies
民間團體、工會和議員一致要求局方設立更具針對性、將公帑更用得其所的失業援助金，但局長至今仍然以行政程序先行、市民生活放兩旁的態度來處理。
Community groups labour unions and Members have unanimously requested the Bureau to set up a more focused unemployment assistance fund which can use the public coffers more properly but to date the Secretary still works with the attitude of giving priority to administrative procedures and leaving peoples livelihood aside
局長表示，要建立一個全新的失業援助金制度需時甚久，遠水不能救近火。
The Secretary said that the establishment of a brand new unemployment assistance fund scheme would take a long time . Distant water cannot put out a fire nearby
但是，現時兩輪防疫抗疫基金的項目連同預算案派發的1萬元，均要待疫情發生半年後才實行。
However the present items under the two rounds of AEF as well as the disbursement of 10,000 proposed in the Budget will not be implemented until six months after the epidemic outbreak
對市民來說，政府真的有救火嗎？
As far as members of the public are concerned did the Government really try to put out the fire?
更重要的是，兩輪防疫抗疫基金的項目有很多漏洞，如果政府容許企業以所謂沒有違法的方式來鑽空子，佔政府便宜，為甚麼不能用同樣的態度來照顧正處於水深火熱的失業基層市民呢？
More importantly there are many loopholes in the items under the two rounds of AEF . If the Government allows enterprises to exploit the loopholes and make gains at the Governments expense in a way which is said to be not illegal why can it not take care of the unemployed grass roots in dire straits with the same attitude?
市民申請政府津貼的時候遭到甚多留難，需要提交很多證明，不論申請在職家庭津貼或綜援也是這樣。
When applying for government subsidies members of the public encounter numerous difficulties and need to produce a lot of proofs . That is the case with applications for both the Working Family Allowance and CSSA
但是，在"保就業"計劃下，企業可以用最簡單的方法來作出申請。
However under ESS enterprises may make applications in the simplest way
說穿了，就是對基層苛刻，對企業寬容。
The bare truth is the Government is harsh to the grass roots and lenient to enterprises
只要以"保就業"計劃的寬鬆態度來運作失業援助金，以應急的態度來應對市民的失業情況，數百億元公帑便可以用得更有效率，更有針對性。
If it operates the unemployment assistance fund with the same leniency adopted in ESS and deals with the peoples unemployment with urgency tens of billions of public funds can be used in a more efficient and focused manner
局長叫失業人士申請綜援，以為提高了資產上限，便可以協助他們解決問題。
The Secretary asked the unemployed to apply for CSSA thinking that an increase in the asset limit could readily help them resolve their problems
問題是，我在第一環節發言時已指出，綜援旨在保障基本生活，並無着手維持失業人士的生活水準，部分失 業人士因為現時的租金太高，遭社署拒絕其申請，千瘡百孔的問題仍然存在。
The problem is as pointed out in my speech in the first session CSSA seeks to meet the basic needs in living . It has nothing to do with maintaining the living standard of the unemployed . The applications of some unemployed people have been rejected by SWD because the rent currently paid by them is too high
本會現在成為全體委員會，繼續審議《2020年撥款條例草案》。
This Council now becomes committee of the whole Council to continue consideration of the Appropriation Bill 2020
全體委員會會繼續第2個環節，就42個總目提出的52項修正案，以及這些總目的款額納入附表，進行合併辯論。
The committee will continue with the second sessions joint debate on the 52 amendments to the 42 heads and the sums for these heads standing part of the Schedule
