關於BCA撥款的修正案，我看不到立法會主席有任何好的理由，不批准我和葉建源議員提出修正案，削減BCA平均每年7,300萬元的開支，因此，我要特別在這裏說說此事。
Also some textbooks may be biased and brainwashing . But I will leave this to the next session to discuss it at greater depth . Regarding the amendments relating to the provision for BCA I did not see any sound reason for the President of the Legislative Council not to approve the amendments proposed by me and Mr IP Kin - yuen to cut the average annual expenditure of 73 million on BCA
教育界、學校和家長已圍繞這項爭議討論多年，但仍未解決。
The education sector schools and parents have held discussions over this controversy for years but it remains unsolved
我們看到現時BCA的安排，不記名和不記校的原意是好的，但政府卻又提出，即使不記校，學校也可以自願報考，然後可取得報告。
We see that the original intention of maintaining anonymity of students and schools under the present BCA arrangements is good but then the Government proposed that even though the schools would be kept anonymous they could sign up for the assessment of their own accord and then obtain a report
這樣便變相是記校，最後又變成學校之間互相競爭，這正正是操練的根源，是最根本的問題。
This is tantamount to having the school names recorded and eventually it will give rise to competition among the schools . This is precisely the root cause of drilling which is the most fundamental problem
所以，我說不記名、不記校和抽樣方式全都是欺騙家長和教育界，正正便是這個原因。
This is exactly why I said the sampling approach with no student names and no school names recorded is nothing but a lie to parents and the education sector . Let us look at the figures . There are 537 primary schools in Hong Kong
大家看看數字，全港有537間小學，其中超過180間會全級學生應考；在34間官立小學中，超過30間會全級學生應考，即九成官校也會全級學生應考，這便是政府自己帶出的意志，官校是政府開辦的學校，其中有九成學校會全級應考，即政府自己也甚為支持全級學生應考，牽頭把操練文化帶入小學，這是極不應該的。
Among the 34 government primary schools more than 30 would sign up for all students of the same grade to take the tests . That means 90 % of the government schools would send all their P3 students to take the tests . This is the governance philosophy exhibited by the Government itself
我也要說說環境方面的事宜。
I need to talk about the environmental matters too
今年很多人把預算案的重點放在電動車上，而我過往亦曾提到，即使電動車有"一換一"的新安排，但我認為政府推動電動車的整體政策不思進取，甚至不進則退，落後於全世界。
This year many people have placed the focus of the Budget on electric vehicles . As I have mentioned before despite the new one - for - one replacement arrangement for electric vehicles I hold that the Governments overall policy on the promotion of electric vehicles is not only resting on its laurels but even regressing lagging behind the whole world
鑒於公共充電設施不足，我們已清楚說明，應訂立短期目標，令充電站和電動車的比例增至1：5，故此應立即多興建最少1,150個充電站，而這些充電站所需的公帑少於5,000萬元。
Given the lack of public charging facilities we have clearly stated that we should set a short - term target of increasing the ratio of charging stations to electric vehicles to 1col5 . At least 1 150 charging stations should thus be built immediately and the amount of public coffers which these charging stations cost is less than 50 million
所以，就整體環境政策而言，我看不到政府有任何決心投入資源，願意花錢解決香港的環境問題。
Hence as far as the overall environmental policy is concerned I did not see the Governments determination to inject resources and willingness to spend money to resolve Hong Kongs environmental problems
例如政府最近公布，在兩電《管制計劃協議》下，會發展可再生能源。
For example the Government has recently announced that renewable energy will be developed under the Scheme of Control Agreements of the two power companies
為甚麼政府不利用這些款項來資助私人屋苑的業主立案法團及商業大廈安裝太陽能板，達致全民參與呢？
Why did the Government not use the money to subsidize the installation of solar panels by owners corporations in private housing estates and commercial buildings so as to achieve territory - wide participation?
為甚麼政府不撥款研究廢膠回收？
Why did the Government not provide funding for the conduct of a study on recycling waste plastics?
這數個微小的例子已可讓全香港市民知道，政府即使有錢，也不願意用來解決香港的環境問題，我認為這問題值得"林鄭"和黃錦星局長深思。
These few small examples can already illustrate to all the people of Hong Kong that even though the Government has money it is unwilling to use it to resolve Hong Kongs environmental problems . I think this issue is worthy of in - depth consideration by Carrie LAM and Secretary WONG Kam - sing
我先就我關注的文化藝術和體育範疇提出意見。
I will first present my views on the areas of arts culture and sports about which I am concerned
就體育方面，過去多年來，政府對體育的投入逐步遞增，經常性開支由2013-2014年度的36億元，增加至今年的大約51億元。
Regarding sports the Governments input for sports has increased progressively over the years . The recurrent expenditure has increased from 3.6 billion in 2013 - 2014 to about 5.1 billion this year
預算 案對體育的投入也多達66億元，包括再向精英運動員發展基金注資50億元。
The input for sports in the Budget has reached 6.6 billion including the injection of an additional 5 billion into the Elite Athletes Development Fund
事實上，在2017年1月施政報告宣布向該基金注資10億元時，我已指出注資額並不足夠。
In fact when the injection of 1 billion into the Fund was announced in the Policy Address in January 2017 I already pointed out that the amount of injection was not enough
況且，我們未來需要支持的精英體育項目及運動員相信只會有增無減，香港體育學院的開支只會有多無少。
Moreover the number of elite sports and elite athletes we need to support in the future will I believe only increase rather than decreasing . The expenditure of the Hong Kong Sports Institute will only keep rising
因此，今年預算案再注資50億元是回應了訴求。
Hence the additional injection of 5 billion in this years Budget has responded to our request
預算案在其他發展體育軟件上的投入，包括撥款5億元推行全新的體育盛事配對資助計劃、向藝術及體育發展基金注資10億元，以及撥款1億元開展地區體育活動資助計劃，我均表示支持。
I extend my support for the input made by the Budget into the development of other sports software including the allocation of 500 million for the introduction of a new Major Sports Events Matching Grant Scheme the injection of 1 billion into the sports portion of the Arts and Sport Development Fund and the allocation of 100 million for the launch of the District Sports Programmes Funding Scheme
唯一不足的是，推動地區體育活動的資源應可再增加，讓地區體育團體有充足資源，推動社區的普及體育氣氛。
The only shortfall is that more resources should be granted for the promotion of district sports activities so that district sports associations can have sufficient resources to take forward popularization of sports in the community
此外，康樂及文化事務署今年將全面檢討體育資助計劃，範圍涵蓋體育總會吸引和挽留員工的能力。
Moreover this year the Leisure and Cultural Services Department LCSD will conduct a comprehensive review of the Sports Subvention Scheme the scope of which will cover the ability of the national sports associations NSAs to attract and retain staff
事實上，本地體育的發展，有賴背後一群付出了不少汗水和努力的體育行政人員。
In fact the local sports development counts on a group of sports administrators who have contributed much effort and hard work behind the scene
然而，受資源所限，要吸引和挽留人才極不容易，流失率普遍偏高。
However owing to limited resources it is by no means easy to attract and retain talents . The wastage rate is generally high
因此，康文署如能加強財政支援，改善體育行政人員的薪酬和待遇，以吸引和培育人才，增強總會的管治及行政管理能力，將有助本地體育發展。
For this reason if LCSD can enhance the financial support to improve the remuneration packages for sports administrators with a view to attracting and nurturing talents as well as strengthening the governance and administrative management capabilities of NSAs it will be conducive to the local sports development
至於文化藝術方面，在硬件建設上，繼去年撥出200億元作增建或重建體育設施後，今年預算案宣布同樣撥出200億元予未來10年改善和增建文化設施，對文化界而言是遲來的好消息，補足了過去文化設施建設的不足。
As regards the hardware facilities for arts and culture following the allocation of 20 billion for developing new sports facilities or redeveloping the existing ones last year this year 20 billion will be similarly set aside for the improvement and development of cultural facilities . To the cultural sector it is a piece of belated good news which can make up for the lack of cultural facilities in the past
政府早前亦已將新界東文化中心和文物修復資源中心的前期工程撥款，提交民政事務委員會審議。
Earlier on the Government has also submitted the funding application for the advance works of the New Territories East Cultural Centre and the Heritage Conservation and Resource Centre to the Panel on Home Affairs for consideration
我希望政府能盡早擬定其他文化項目的細節並盡快落實，為文化界提供更多優質的發展空間。
I hope the Government can work out the details of the other cultural projects as early as possible and implement them expeditiously thereby providing the cultural sector with more room for quality development
另一方面，預算案預留了10億元，供非政府組織以短期租約租用空置政府土地及校舍時，提供基本工程費用資助，以及協調政府部門提供技術意見。
Meanwhile the Budget has set aside 1 billion to subsidize the costs of basic works and coordinate the efforts of government departments in providing technical advice for non - governmental organizations renting vacant government sites or school premises on short - term tenancies
事實上，本地體育和文化界以至演藝和出版界，均希望利用空置政府土地和校舍作不同發展用途。
In fact the local sports cultural performing arts and publication sectors all wish to use vacant government sites and school premises for different development purposes
在過去，即使有團體覓得合適的空置政府土地和校舍，既要面對繁複的申請程序，即使申請獲批，在使用空間時也面對不少工程和技術上的困難，為這些本身 資源已緊絀的團體倍添壓力。
In the past even though some organizations had identified suitable government sites or school premises they had to face the complicated application procedures . Even if their applications were approved they would encounter a lot of engineering and technical difficulties in using such space causing additional pressure to these organizations which were already straitened for resources
政府如能提供資助和協助，固然能減輕成功申請者的負擔。
If the Government can provide subsidies and assistance it can certainly alleviate the burden of the successful applicants
除提供資助和協助外，政府亦應簡化申請租用空置校舍和土地的程序，提高資訊透明度，便利有意申請的團體，做到真正善用土地。
Apart from providing subsidies and assistance the Government should also streamline the application procedures for renting vacant school premises and sites and increase the transparency of information for the convenience of organizations intending to make such applications thus genuinely optimizing the use of land
在藝團資助方面，預算案提出自今年度起增撥5,500萬元，同時向藝術發展配對資助試驗計劃增撥5億元，這些措施我都非常支持。
On financial support for arts groups the Budget proposed an additional recurrent provision of 55 million starting from this year . At the same time an additional 500 million will be injected into the Art Development Matching Grants Pilot Scheme . I greatly support these measures
特別是配對計劃在早前完成兩輪申請後，原本3億元的基金撥款已使用了1億2,000萬元，可見反應非常熱烈。
In particular upon completion of two rounds of applications under the Pilot Scheme earlier 120 million of the original funding of 300 million was used evident of the enthusiastic responses
不過，仍有不少藝團反映，合資格申請的藝團範圍太窄，申請配對的條件亦過高，例如9個主要藝團爭取捐款和贊助的能力理應較高，但也因為配對的要求太嚴格而令部分藝團卻步。
Nevertheless quite a number of arts groups have relayed that the coverage of eligible arts groups is too narrow and the application requirements for the matching grants are too harsh . For example the nine major performing arts groups should be more capable of seeking donations and sponsorship but the requirements for the matching grants are so strict that some of these arts groups have been discouraged from making applications
因此，增加撥款的同時，也希望政府能切實聆聽文化藝術界的聲音，擴闊適用範圍，支持更多不同類型的藝團爭取商界的資源，推動他們的發展。
For this reason I hope that while providing additional funding the Government can listen to the views of the cultural and arts sector closely and expand the scope of application to support more different types of arts groups in garnering resources from the business sector so as to promote their development
在文化交流工作方面，預算案表示會從2018-2019年度起，逐步增加經常撥款至5,000萬元，以支持香港藝團和藝術家到其他地方表演和舉辦展覽，以及撥出1億4,000萬元，支援他們在粵港澳大灣區作文化交流，這些建議都回應了業界的訴求。
Regarding cultural exchanges the Budget indicated that from 2018 - 2019 onwards the recurrent provision would be progressively increased to 50 million to support Hong Kongs arts groups and artists to perform and stage exhibitions outside Hong Kong and 140 million would be allocated to supporting their cultural exchanges in the Guangdong - Hong Kong - Macao Bay Area . These proposals have answered the aspirations of the sectors
事實上，要到外地演出或舉辦展覽，藝術家和藝團要付出非常大的額外人力物力，不少也因為財政資源有限而錯失前往海外或內地交流的機會。
In fact to perform or stage exhibitions outside Hong Kong artists and arts groups have to expend a lot of extra efforts and resources . Many of them have lost the opportunities of exchanges overseas or on the Mainland owing to restraints of financial resources
而且，隨着大灣區逐步發展，當中不乏文化藝術的發展機遇。
Moreover following the gradual development of the Bay Area there will be no lack of development opportunities for culture and arts
故此，政府撥款予本地藝術界到大灣區作文化交流，我認為是適切的，但是，相關撥款如何運用，仍待政府交代更具體的細節。
For this reason the Governments funding for the local arts sector to conduct cultural exchanges in the Bay Area in my view is appropriate but the Government is yet to give an account of more specific details about how the relevant funding will be used
主席，政府增加對體育和文化藝術發展的資源，我固然無任歡迎。
Chairman the Governments increase in resources for the development of sports culture and arts is certainly most welcome to me
然而，資源確是有所增加，但大多是零散的政策措施，未見清晰的發展方向。
However despite the actual increase in resources policy initiatives are mostly fragmentary without a clear direction of development
再者，特首雖然表示今年的預算案將展現很多新的理財哲學，但就文化藝術及體育發展方面，新資源大多用於注資基金或作有限度的撥款，仍然隱含過去政府理財策略的影子。
Furthermore although the Chief Executive said that this years Budget would manifest a new fiscal philosophy in many ways most of the new resources for the development of arts culture and sports are deployed as injections into various funds or limited provisions which still bear traces of the Governments past financial management strategy
我希望政府能認真考慮就本地文化政策和體育政策進行檢討，因應環境變遷和業界發展需要，訂下長遠發展藍圖，並因應新發展策略，釐定相關開支預算。
I hope the Government can seriously consider conducting a review of the local culture and sports policies devising a long - term development blueprint in response to changes in the environment and development needs of the sectors and making the relevant estimates of expenditure dovetail with the new development strategy
在創意產業方面，今年預算案無疑令人失望。
Regarding creative industries this years Budget is undoubtedly disappointing
預算案的演辭只有短短100字的段落提及創意產業，而且只是呼應施政報告提出再次向創意智優計劃注資10億元的建議，並未見其他新猷。
In the Budget speech there was only a short paragraph of about 100 words on creative industries . Moreover it merely echoed the proposal in the Policy Address of injecting another 1 billion into the CreateSmart Initiative CSI . No other new ideas could be seen
事實上，過去數年，電視、音樂和出版等數個創意產業覆蓋的行業，申請獲批的個案都偏少，主力依靠創意智優計劃來支持這些行業，我認為既不足也 乏力。
As a matter of fact over the past few years few applications made by such creative industries as the television music and publication industries have been approved . I consider it both insufficient and lacking in strength to rely mainly on CSI to support these industries
再者，要支持創意產業的發展，不能單靠創意智優計劃，還需要不同的政策措施提供支援。
Furthermore to support the development of creative industries we cannot solely rely on CSI . We also need different policy initiatives to provide support
以出版界為例，業界一直希望政府能加強推動閱讀和寫作，多年來也一直倡議引入圖書館授借權，作為支持本地作家及出版的措施，以推動本地創作，這項建議也得到特首支持，並寫進其競選政綱。
Take the publication sector as an example . The sector has always hoped that the Government can enhance the promotion of reading and writing . Over the years it has advocated the introduction of public lending right in libraries as a measure for supporting local writers and publishers with a view to promoting local creative works
本屆政府上任後，也曾就此與業界舉行會議磋商，但至今仍未有任何進展。
This proposal was supported by the Chief Executive and included in her election manifesto . The current - term Government has held meetings with the sector for discussion after its assumption of office but so far no progress has been made
預算案提出在未來5年增撥2億元，向兒童及家庭推廣閱讀，業界雖然認為力度不足，但也願意支持和配合。
The Budget proposed allocating an additional 200 million in the coming five years to promoting reading among children and families . Although the sector considers it inadequate it is willing to support it and work in collaboration
可惜在圖書館授借權方面，預算案隻字不提，也未有半點資源配合，當局在財務委員會特別會議上也沒有就相關工作的進展作出任何正面回應。
Regrettably there was no mention of the public lending right in libraries in the Budget and not the least bit of resources was allocated as a complementary measure . Neither did the authorities give any positive response on the progress of the relevant work at the special meeting of the Finance Committee
我希望政府能加緊處理相關工作，盡快向公眾和業界作出明確的交代。
I hope the Government can step up its efforts in handling the relevant work and give a clear account to the public and the sector as soon as possible
主席，在過往的預算案中，最吸引市民"眼球"的皆是一些"派糖"和免稅措施，今年亦不例外，提出了多項稅務寬免。
Chairman in past budgets the most eye - catching measures were handouts of candies and tax concessions . This year is no exception . Various tax concessions have been proposed
但是，過往一些指定動作，例如為公屋住戶代繳租金今年卻未有繼續，與基層人士的期望有落差。
However such past rituals as rent payment for public housing tenants did not continue this year falling short of the grass roots expectations
不過，當局及後聽取了社會的聲音，向未受惠任何寬減措施的市民加碼派發4,000元現金，作為補漏拾遺，與民共享經濟成果，暫時安撫了社會不同階層的市民。
Nevertheless after listening to the views in the community later the authorities proposed an additional measure of handing out 4,000 cash to members of the public not benefiting from any relief measures so as to plug the gaps in the system and share the fruits of economic success with the people thus placating the people in different social strata for the moment
在我的記憶中，派了"糖"卻換不到任何讚賞聲音並非第一次，歸根究底，只怪當局始終未能拿出方案，應對長期錄得巨額盈餘的開心問題。
In my recollection it is not the first time that the handout of candies could not win any kudos in return . After all the authorities are to blame for failing to come up with a proposal to address the persistent happy problem of recording a huge surplus
很多市民也認同，"永續派錢"並非治港良方，只是基於政府沒有大作為的情況下，唯有期望當局把盈餘反饋。
Many members of the public agree that sustaining the handout of cash forever is not a good way of governing Hong Kong . Yet in the absence of any great achievement by the Government they cannot but expect the authorities to plough back the surplus
事實上，市民寄望政府可以表現得更積極和有作為，特別是解決土地房屋和人口老化這兩項市民最關注和迫切的問題，希望政府當局可以急市民所急，為這些問題提供持久、具遠見的方案。
Actually members of the public earnestly hope that the Government can act more proactively and achieve more especially in resolving the shortage of land and housing and population ageing the two pressing problems about which the people are most concerned . I hope the Administration can share the peoples urgent concern and put forward sustainable proposals with vision in respect of these problems
代理主席，公民黨在今年財政司司長就財政預算案進行諮詢時，曾經給予司長一個忠告，便是"處富知貧，投資民生"，意思是當我們處於富貴，有盈餘時，必須知道貧窮人的艱苦，既要未雨綢繆，為明天作準備，亦要明白貧窮人所面對的困境，向他們施以援手。
Deputy Chairman during the Financial Secretarys consultation on the Budget this year the Civic Party tendered the Financial Secretary this piece of advice that is Give regard to the poor in times of abundance and invest in peoples livelihood . It means that when we are in times of affluence and enjoying surpluses we must give regard to the plights of the poor . On the one hand we have to prepare for a rainy day yet on the other we should be compassionate towards the poor who are in difficulties and give them a helping hand
套用在預算案上，當然是應該在我們坐擁千億元盈餘時投資未來。
In the context of the Budget it naturally means that we should invest for our future when we have a surplus of hundreds of billions of dollars
今年的財政盈餘可能是歷屆政府中數一數二的，但是，面對着這個幸福的煩惱，聰明的特區政府在處理這次的財政盈餘時顯然顯得進退失據，未來的政府或來屆政府在再處理相同事情時，必須謹慎為之。
The fiscal surplus this year likely ranks the first or second of all the previous terms of Government . Yet in the face of this happy problem the clever Special Administrative Region SAR Government is obviously caught in a dilemma . The future Government or the next Government must act cautiously in handling similar issues
今年預算案的其中一個焦點是究竟應否"派錢"。
One of the focuses of this Budget is whether or not a cash handout should be offered
公民黨想在這裏重申，我們認為藏富於民和還政於民一樣，從來也應該是公共理財的皇道，是相信民間智慧，而且對社會有所裨益的一個選項。
The Civic Party would like to reiterate here that we always consider leaving wealth with the people and returning power to the people the highest way in public finance management which trusts the peoples wisdom and is an option benefiting the community
不過，現實中也有事情需要公權力推動，尤其是一些解決長遠社會危機的民生事項，包括全民養老金和安老院舍等，也是我們應該投資的地方。
Nonetheless in reality public power is required in promoting certain initiatives particularly in addressing peoples livelihood issues posting long - term risks to society . We should invest in areas including universal old age pension and residential care homes for the elderly
不過，很可惜，前述的範疇，在今次這份預算案中也看不到。
Regrettably the areas mentioned are not found in the Budget this year
我們對今年預算案的評價，代理主席，可以用5句說話來形容："下未通情，上不達理，花不得其所，行不得其道，使不得其法"。
Our comments on the Budget this year Deputy Chairman may be described in five phrases Fail to understand the poor; fail to follow the principle fail to spend suitably; fail to act justly; fail to execute correctly . The Government fails to understand the plights of the public
既未能體察民間疾苦，亦看不見背後有何理財哲學。
We do not see the fiscal philosophy adopted
之前提到的新理財哲學似乎只是雷聲大，雨點小，應花的地方沒有花安老、公共醫療和青年貧窮等亟需投入資源的問題只見杯水車薪，但花在政治工程上的則毫不吝嗇。
Regarding the new fiscal philosophy the Government mentioned earlier it seems to be all talk but no action . Money is not spent properly where areas greatly in need of resources such as elderly care public health care and youth poverty are only provided with meagre resources but political projects are lavished with funds
其中一個例子是，搞"洗腦"教育的青年發展委員會又獲撥款10億元。
The allocation of 1 billion to the Youth Development Commission which develops brainwashing education is a case in point
究竟這是政府甚麼的理財新哲學呢？
What kind of fiscal philosophy has the Government adopted?
顯然政府自己也解答不到。
The Government obviously has no answer to this question either
人才之所以稱為人才，他們當然是眼看四方，有好的地方自然會被吸引過去，而國內當然是其中一個選項。
Talents as they are so called will definitely set eyes on opportunities on different fronts and naturally be attracted to good places where Mainland is obviously a choice
作為一個負責任和有目光的政府，究竟我們除了懂得叫本地人才向北望之外，我們做了甚麼來留住"Made in Hong Kong"的真正本地人才呢？
As a responsible Government with foresight instead of urging local talents to look for development opportunities in the North what has it done to retain local talents Made in Hong Kong?
同時，代理主席，特區政府對科技發展終於投以關注目光，展開銀彈攻勢，要在未來5年追回落後的20年。
At the same time Deputy Chairman the SAR Government has finally given due regard to technology development and started a money - based strategy to catch up in the next five years grounds lost in the past 20 - years
我嘗試在Google上以"科學園"3個字進行搜尋，代理主席，不知你能否想象，在Google的最熱門搜尋當中，"科學園"後面是跟着甚麼呢？
I try to search 科學園Science Park on Google . Deputy Chairman I wonder if you can imagine the most searched phrases with the three characters 科學園 on Google
代理主席，這亦反映出民間對科學園的印象是它變成了周末的好去處，是可以泊車和遊玩的地方，這似乎與科技的發展有所違背。
Deputy Chairman it reveals the publics impression of Science Park . They regard Science Park a place to visit on weekends with parking lots and for fun which seems to run contrary to the purpose of technology development
代理主席，香港人對於香港公司或香港人研發出來的項目必然有自豪感，這也證明香港可以很有創意。
Deputy Chairman people of Hong Kong will definitely be proud of items developed by companies and people of Hong Kong which can prove the creativity of Hong Kong
但是，現時的政策是否"貼地"，能否幫助香港人呢？
Yet regarding the existing policies are they realistic and can they help the people of Hong Kong?
代理主席，我舉一個例子供大家參考。
Deputy Chairman I will quote an example for Members reference
政府在去年的施政報告中提出成立一個10億元的基金，以推動安老服務和樂齡科技，將照顧老人與科技結合起來。
In the Policy Address released last year the Government proposed setting up a fund of 1 billion to promote elderly care and gerontechnology with a view to integrating technology into elderly care
之後，有院舍引入在博覽會展 出的一套新系統，稱為"配安心藥物管理系統"，幫助院舍節省分藥時間，由每天15小時減至2小時。
After that certain residential care homes introduced a new system exhibited in the relevant Expo which is called SafeMed Medication Management System to save the time for drug distribution in residential care homes reducing the time required from 15 hours to two hours
這套系統由香港人設計，資金來自香港，由香港公司研發，更是在政府資訊科技總監辦公室舉辦的比賽中獲獎的系統，相信今天在席的楊局長也必然認識。
The system is designed by Hongkongers with Hong Kong funds developed by a Hong Kong company and has won an award in a competition hosted by the Office of the Government Chief Information Officer . I believe Secretary Nicholas W YANG in the Chamber today must know about the system . Yet the residential care home cannot use the system in the end
因為違反了社會福利署的指引中有關不可預先拆開藥物包裝的規定。
For the use of the system required the removal of medication packing in advance which violates the guidelines laid down by the Social Welfare Department
代理主席，這是否很大的諷刺？
Deputy Chairman what an irony?
我想指出的是，政府搞創意科技並不是要搞發明創新，做創新及科技局的官員最重要的工作是為科技界打通關節，拆牆鬆綁。
I have to point out that the Governments promotion of innovation and technology is not about invention and creativity . As government officials responsible for innovation and technology their primary duty is to make a thoroughfare for the technology sector by removing obstacles and hurdles
這一點，我亦希望楊局長能夠清楚明白。
I hope that Secretary Nicholas W YANG will understand this point clearly
