正如尹兆堅議員剛才所說，大家都很想聽見梁志祥議員會否就此事給我們新的理解和理由，令我們知道事情已無需討論，已獲解決。
As Mr Andrew WAN said a while ago we are eager to hear if Mr LEUNG Che - cheung would present some new views or justifications on this issue so as to convince us that the matter has been settled and no further discussion is required
民主派議員要求索取關於橫洲事件的資料，無論是"摸底"或公屋數量的資料，建制派完全沒有提及反對理由，只說我們現在花時間討論這問題，便不能討論其他問題。
When Members in the pan - democracy camp request the provision of information on Wang Chau development in respect of soft lobbying or the number of public housing units to be produced the pro - establishment camp does not have any reason for objection . Their reason for objection is that as we spend time to discuss this issue we cannot discuss other issues
梁議員剛才說因為我們已有新話題，所以不會很緊張今天這個話題，因為現在要針對律政司司長。
Mr LEUNG said that because we already have a new issue to deal with ie . to target the Secretary for Justice we did not show too much concern about this incident today
如果因此便說這議題是明日黃花，我只可以說無論是新議題或舊議題，全部也未解決。
If you apply this reason and say that the subject today is a thing of the past I can only say that all issues old and new are yet to be resolved
我們其實很慘，無論是新問題還是舊問題，只要有建制派在這裏為政府頂着，全部也未能解決。
Actually we have a hard time . As long as the pro - establishment camp is present to shield the Government all problems be they old or new will remain unresolved
我們真的很難抉擇，究竟應該討論哪一項？
It is really difficult for us to choose which topic should be raised for discussion?
這些完全是轉移視線的藉口，完全沒有討論今天幾位民主派議員提出的問題和質疑。
All these are excuses for the purpose of diverting our attention while the problems and queries raised today by pan - democratic Members have not been discussed
有傳媒在2013年報道，房屋署說要研究在橫洲一幅33公頃的棕地上興建17,000個公屋單位。
In 2013 it was reported in the media that the Housing Department wanted to study the feasibility of building 17 000 public housing units on 33 hectares of brownfield sites at Wang Chau
談到棕地，公共專業聯盟其實在很久以前，沒有10年，大約8年前已作出報告，就是香港必須利用這些棕地才可解決現時土地不足的問題，最少應該先棕後綠，有些人甚至說只棕不綠。
Regarding brownfield sites The Professional Commons compiled a report long ago about eight years ago less than a decade . It proposed that Hong Kong must use brownfield sites to solve the problem of land shortage . At least brownfield sites must be developed before to Green Belt sites
當然，我覺得大家要視乎香港的發展和數據，以及政府究竟有多大力量和力度真的可以使用這些棕地，我們才決定是否使用綠色用地。
Some people even said that we should only develop brownfield sites but not Green Belt sites . Of course I think we have to consider the development and statistics concerned as well as the strength and force of the Government to make brownfield sites available for development . By then we can decide whether Green Belt sites should be used
政府在橫洲發展的研究中，本來說要興建17,000個公屋單位，但很明顯，最大的反對者是鄉紳，鄉紳提出反對，政府便轉而動用綠化地。
In its study for Wang Chau development the Government initially stated that 17 000 public housing units would be built but apparently the greatest objection came from the rural leaders . Owing to their objection the Government backed down and used Green Belt sites instead . Originally we thought that it would be easier to develop brownfield sites before and then tackle the more difficult task of developing Green Belt sites later
我們本來認為先棕後綠應該是先易後難，原來從政府的角度來看，因為有惡人說不能動用棕地，政府便採取相反的做法。
However it turned out that from the Governments perspective it would not use brownfield sites due to the opposition of villains
這件事情真的完全反映香港政府在過去一段時間處理土地的問題，特別是沒有提供足夠土地興建公共房屋，其實也沒有提供足夠土地作其他用途。
This incident fully reflects the problems of the Government in handling lands in the past period of time in particular its failure to provide adequate land to build public housing units and for other purposes
如果政府繼續以這種方法行事，一方面會引起公義和公平的問題；另一方面未能覓得足夠土地，對各項發展造成拖延。
If the Government continues to act in this way the issue of justice and fairness will arise and there will not be enough land for all sorts of development causing delays
其實，政府應該第一時間處理這些問題，不可以因害怕犯法的人最少是涉嫌犯法的人而不肯處理問題。
Actually the Government should tackle these problems immediately; it should not be reluctant to tackle these problems because it was afraid of the law breakers―at least the suspected law breakers
所以，今次朱凱廸議員要求政府提供這些文件，有很重要的意義。
For this reason Mr CHU Hoi - dicks request for the Government to provide the documents has great significance
我們懷疑究竟政府是事後說謊，還是當年一開始已有計劃瞞騙或對區議會隱瞞實情？
We doubt whether the Government lied after the event or whether it had the intent at the outset to deceive or hide the facts from the District Council
很多新界地區的土地發展，當然不只是全部用作興建住宅單位；如果是，當區居民要到哪兒工作？
Land development in many areas of the New Territories is not just for housing development; if that is the case where do local residents go to work?
發展涉及經濟、社會及社區的問題，大家也知道，過往政府的發展均出現這些問題。
Land development involves economic social and community problems and we know that such problems had arisen during land development by the Government in the past
我們明顯看到橫洲的發展及其他地區，例如新界西北的發展項目，包括洪水橋、蓮塘/香園圍口岸，甚至最近提及的河套區發展等，均有很多創科用地要發展。
Regarding the development projects at Wang Chau and other areas such as the development projects in Northwest New Territories including Hung Shui Kiu LiantangHeung Yuen Wai Boundary Control Point as well as the recently mentioned Loop development land is required for innovation and technology industries
主席，我希望簡單發言，支持陳淑莊議員根據《基本法》第七十三條動議的議案，向政府當局索取西九文化區和香港故宮文化博物館的相關資料和文件。
President I just want to speak briefly in support of Ms Tanya CHANs motion moved under Articles 73 of the Basic Law to request the Government to provide the relevant information and papers in relation to the West Kowloon Cultural District WKCD and the Hong Kong Palace Museum HKPM
我不知道，那是政府的解釋。
That was the Governments explanation
大家都記得，該項協議公布後......
It is well - known to everyone that after the announcement of the agreement I believe that most people in Hong Kong may not oppose the construction of HKPM in WKCD as a landmark
當然，這是另一個問題。
Of course that is another issue
有市民認為，西九始終是一個文化藝術區，應具備良好的表演藝術場地以至 博物館等設施，亦有很多市民認為西九要保留很多土地作為綠化空間，好讓市民有休憩的地方。
Some people may think that since WKCD is a cultural district it should provide good performing arts venues and museums while many others think that large green areas should be reserved in WKCD as open areas
一方面，我們當然希望政府提供這些文件，但另一方面，坦白說，我不希望政府給我們的答覆是它沒有保存有關紀錄。
We certainly hope that the Government will produce these documents . Honestly speaking I do not wish to receive the Governments reply that it has not kept such records
這是個老問題，我不會在此贅述。
This is the same old problem which I will not repeat here
第二，西九文化區管理局於2016年6月直接聘用許李嚴建築師事務所，以450萬元顧問費就P46/47用地發展提供前期顧問服務。
Secondly WKCDA directly appointed ROCCO Design Architects Limited in June 2016 to provide pre - development consultancy services regarding the use of the P4647 site at the consultancy fee of 4.5 million
我們希望政務司司長和民政事務局常任秘書長代表政府就聘用上述公司向本會提交所有相關文件，包括書信、合約、會議紀錄和資料文件。
We hope that the Chief Secretary and the Permanent Secretary will on behalf of the Government submit to this Council all relevant documents regarding the appointment of the said firm including letters contracts minutes of meetings and information papers
我們希望政府提交相關顧問合約及顧問報告，讓我們多作了解。
We hope that the Government will provide the consultancy contract and the consultancy report to enable us to have a better understanding of the matter
我們希望政府向本會提交有關的顧問合約及顧問報告。
We hope that the Government will submit to this Council the consultancy contract and the consultancy report
此外，西九文化區管理局於2015年10月成立5人核心小組，就在西九興建故宮館的可行性作出研究。
In addition WKCDA set up a five - member core team in October 2015 to explore the feasibility of building HKPM in WKCD
我們希望政府提交該核心小組的所有相關文件，包括會議日期讓我們知道它開了多少次會議和每次會議的時間會議文件及會議紀錄。
We hope that the Government will produce all relevant documents regarding the core team including the dates of its meetings―for knowing the number of meetings held and the duration of each meeting―meeting documents and minutes of the meetings
該5人核心小組於2016年年初曾就興建故宮館的可行性諮詢西九文化區管理局董事局3位資深成員。
In early 2016 the five - member core team consulted three senior members of the WKCDA Board on the feasibility of building HKPM
主席，我簡單講述了陳淑莊議員在這項議案及其附表下要求政府提供的文件所應載有的內容，希望大家都看到這些內容的確非常重要。
President I have given a brief account of the contents of the documents listed in the Schedule to the motion that Ms Tanya CHAN requested from the Government . I hope that we will see that the importance of such information
我希望主席和所有議員均支持這項議案。
I hope that the President and all other Members will support this motion
主席，我發言支持陳淑莊議員的議案。
President I speak in support of Ms Tanya CHANs motion
但是，我們看到一種趨勢，政府近年常以立法會提出太多質詢，令政府無法按心目中的時間表推行政策項目為由，不斷繞過立法會以落實自己想做的事。
However there is a trend in recent years that the Government has incessantly bypassed the Legislative Council to implement measures it preferred on the pretext that the Legislative Council raises too many questions resulting in the Government being unable to implement various policies according to its intended schedule . Carrie LAM the incumbent Chief Executive is an expert of this tactic
這項起碼耗資1,400億元的工程，竟可不用提交立法會審批。
The project at a cost of at least 140 billion had not been submitted to the Legislative Council for approval
並非只是香港市民要求政府要有透明度，中國政府也要有透明度，中國與香港之間的事務也要透明，這對無論哪一方的人民而言，要求政府問責是最基本要求。
While people in Hong Kong demand transparency from the Government the Chinese Government should also operate with transparency . The affairs between China and Hong Kong should be transparent . To the people of Hong Kong or China the demand for a transparent government is the most basic right
朱凱廸議員根據《基本法》第七十三條提出的第一項議案，以及現在的第二項議案，其實也與橫洲有關。
The first motion proposed by Mr CHU Hoi - dick under Article 73 of the Basic Law as well as the second motion now under discussion are related to Wang Chau
有關橫洲發展的問題，我記得在2016年，即大約年半前，在本屆立法會尚未正式開始運作之際，已有泛民議員表示要引用《立法會條例》調查橫洲事件。
On the development of Wang Chau I recalled that one and a half year ago in 2016 before this Council commenced operation officially certain Members from the pan - democratic camp requested invoking the Legislative Council Ordinance to investigate the Wang Chau incident
事實上，當局稍後已在刪去敏感資料後，將相關可行性研究提出來讓公眾討論，當時的行政長官梁振英先生和相關的局長、署長，已向傳媒和公眾多番解釋，而局長亦多次前來立法會解釋橫洲的發展計劃。
In fact the relevant feasibility studies were later released for public discussion after the deletion of certain sensitive information . The then incumbent Chief Executive Mr LEUNG Chun - ying and the Directors of Bureaux concerned had explained the case to the media and the public a number of times whereas the Director of Bureau had come to the Legislative Council several times to explain the development plan of Wang Chau
這做法相當順理成章，符合邏輯。
This is a reasonable and logical approach
可是，泛民議員卻說成是"官商鄉黑"，這根本是刻意將橫洲發展政治化，並無邏輯可言。
Nonetheless Members from the pan - democratic camp interpreted it as government - business - rural - triad collusion which is deliberate politicization of the Wang Chau development . It is totally irrational
我記得我當時曾向傳媒表示，這是新一屆立法會在運作上將會面對挑戰的好例子。
I recall telling the media back then that it was a typical example demonstrating the challenge to be met by the current Legislative Council in operation
當立法會的會議尚未正式開始之際，已有泛民議員企圖利用這議題來打擊政府的施政。
Before the official commencement of meetings of the Legislative Council Members from the pan - democratic camp attempted to use this issue to undermine the administration of the Government
我們現在討論的問題，是顧問公司涉嫌挪用政府的機密資料。
The question now under discussion is about the suspected illegal use of confidential information of the Government
我不會刻意說出顧問公司的名稱，雖然有議員在此肆意引述顧問公司的名稱，這或因他們認為在《立法會條例》下可以這樣做，但我認為只須針對事情，而無須針對某人、某公司。
I will not name the consultancy deliberately though certain Members have cited the name of the consultancy indiscriminately . Perhaps these Members consider that they have the right to do so under the Legislative Council Ordinance yet I consider it more appropriate to focus on facts than individuals or individual companies
據悉，當時土木工程拓展署曾與涉事的顧問公司，就橫洲公營房屋發展的第1期項目所需的地盤平整、道路、擋土構建物和行人天橋等其他基建工程進行勘察和研究，這是公營項目的顧問工作。
It is learnt that back then the Civil Engineering and Development Department CEDD had commissioned the consultancy company to conduct the consultancy work of a public project involving the investigation and studies on site formation and other infrastructure works like the construction of roads earth - retaining structures and footbridges and so on
我絕對不是要袒護發展商，但這個邏輯存在問題。
I am not being partial to the developer yet the logic here is problematic
主席，假如我個人委託會計師樓，又或是委託顧問公司、律師樓處理我的事務，他們在處理我的事務的過程中，違反跟政府的某些協議，而我竟要因此被拖累，這還得了？
President as in the case of my appointment of an accountant firm a consultant company or a solicitor firm if they violate certain agreement with the Government in the process of handling my businesses and I am dragged in because of their actions it will be totally unacceptable
因此，我並不是要袒護某位委託人，而是這是一個顯淺的道理。
Hence I am not being partial to a certain client . The reasoning is simple here
主席，有議員剛才質疑顧問公司的運作，我作為工程界的代表，也想在此稍作說明。
President as some Members have questioned the operation of the consultancy earlier as the representative of the engineering sector I would like to explain the case briefly
實際上，一間顧問公司是否可以只承接公務工程合約，而不承接私人合約，又或倒過來，只承接私人合約，而不准承接公務工程合約呢？
In actuality is it possible for a consultancy undertaking public works contracts not to undertake any private contracts or vice versa that is merely undertaking private projects and not public works projects?
由於有很多顧問工程服務均相當專業，研究範圍也相當狹窄，香港未必有很多公司具備這方面的能力。
Since many consultant engineering services are highly professional with a narrow scope of study not many companies in Hong Kong have the capacity to conduct these studies
由於當局要求私人項目必須申請，他們不得不與政府心目中的發展計劃互相配合，但當局卻不容許他們使用政府的數據。
As the authorities require applications be submitted for all private projects they cannot but try to cope with the intended development plan of the Government yet the authorities do not allow them to use the data of the Government
事情發展至此，政府也算是從善如流。
As the incident has developed to the present state the Government has heeded advice and made some improvement
發展局和規劃署從善如流，確實值得讚許，而有關資料實際上對業界有一定的幫助。
The Development Bureau and the Planning Department should be commended for implementing improvement measures correspondingly and the relevant information is helpful to the sector in some measure
不過，在2018年1月10日的立法會會議上，我提出一項有關發展智慧城市的質詢。
Yet at the meeting of the Legislative Council on 10 January 2018 I asked a question on smart city
雖然當局已踏出了第一步，但卻不是完整地將《全港人口及就業數據矩陣》中的454個小區的資料公開，而是將資料整合成26個較大的分區。
Though the authorities have taken the first step it has not released the information of 454 small districts covered by TPEDM but only the aggregate data of 26 larger districts
我相信隨着業界不斷發展，以及政府對有關情況有更深入的掌握時，當局會進一步完善現時情況，將更多細節和資料公開。
I trust that as the sector continues to develop and as the Government gains a better understanding of the situation the authorities will further enhance the practice by releasing more details and information
不過，針對特定的違規個案，正如我剛才提到，兩個政策局已提及此事，而立法會相關事務委員會的多份會議紀錄也有記錄，所以我不在此重申。
Yet regarding the specific case of violation as I mentioned earlier the incident has been mentioned by the two Policy Bureaux concerned and recorded in a number of minutes of meetings of the relevant Panels of the Legislative Council I will not make any repetition here
總括而言，主席，我反對朱凱廸議員現時根據《基本法》第七十三條提出的第二項議案。
In gist President I oppose the second motion proposed by Mr CHU Hoi - dick under Article 73 of the Basic Law
我認為他們現時提出的所謂傳召議案，正如多位建制派議員在先前和上周的發言指出，他們當時提出這些議案是為了"拉布"，企圖阻礙建制派提出《議事規則》的修訂。
In my view and as pointed out by a number of Members from the pro - establishment camp in their speeches earlier or last week these so - called summoning motions were proposed as filibusters with an attempt to prevent the pro - establishment camp from proposing the amendments to the Rules of Procedure
《議事規則》的修訂已經塵埃落定，這等傳召官員的議案只是繼續燃燒議會的時間，極不理想。
Now that the amendments to the Rules of Procedure have been passed and confirmed these motions on summoning government officials will merely consume our time . It is extremely undesirable
正如我和很多業界朋友指出，如果要"拉布"， 他們仍有很多招數，當前的議案也是一種"拉布"，但我希望大家好好利用議會的時間和資源，不要繼續燃燒議會的時間，令市民進一步、進一步失望。
As many members in the trade and I have pointed out if they want to do filibusters they still have a lot of ways to do so and the present motion is a kind of filibuster . Yet I hope Members will use the time and resources of the legislature properly and stop consuming the time of this Council for the public will be disappointed further by such practices
如果大家覺得我阻礙你們的時間，我先向大家說聲抱歉。不過，我必須強調我每一項議案均有所本，有其現實意義。
If Honourable colleagues think that I am taking up their time I would like to apologize to them but I must emphasize that each of these motions has its own purpose and practical significance
主席，第一項我要提出的議案，根據《基本法》第七十三條第五項及第七十三條第十項動議，措辭如下："傳召運輸及房屋局局長於2018年2月7日到立法會席前，就2013年至2014年期間，橫洲公共房屋發展計劃的決策過程及相關事宜作證及提供證據，以及出示所有相關的文據、簿冊、紀錄或文件。
President my first motion is that pursuant to Articles 735 and 7310 of the Basic Law this Council summons the Secretary for Transport and Housing to attend before the Council on 7 February 2018 to testify or give evidence and to produce all relevant papers books records or documents in relation to the decision - making process of the Public Housing Development Plan at Wang Chau and related issues during the period from 2013 to 2014
"一些同事即時的想法，可能是這些都已是明日黃花，而事實上，這事發生的時間可能有點久遠，但絕不是明日黃花，我在此簡單地談談事情始末，以及目前的進展。
Some colleagues may immediately think that this is a thing of the past . Although this happened long ago this is by no means a thing of the past . I will tell the whole story and talk about the current progress briefly
政府於2012年提出要覓地發展公營房屋，而橫洲有34公頃棕地及綠化地帶，研究結果顯示可以提供17,000個公營房屋單位。
The Government proposed to identify land for public housing development in 2012 . There were 34 hectares of brownfield sites and green belt areas at Wang Chau and findings of research showed that 17 000 public housing units could be provided
主席，聽罷幾位同事及局長的發言後，我有以下幾點回應。
President after listening to the speeches made by a few colleagues and the Secretary I would like to make a few points in response . First of all the Secretary has said that informal consultations will definitely not replace formal consultations
那些村民根本就不知道。
The villagers are simply not aware of the situation
主席，梁志祥議員剛才說我們還有機會，因為房屋事務委員會打算成立一個小組委員會跟進橫洲事件。
President Mr LEUNG Che - cheung said just now that we still have a chance to right the wrong because the Panel on Housing will set up a subcommittee to follow up the issues related to the Wang Chau development project
我很想梁志祥議員明白，已沒有機會了，因為按照政府的時間表，很可能受橫洲發展第1期計劃影響的180戶居民於3月份便會被迫遷，失去家園，到時候最受影響、最受到冤屈的人便會被你們趕到不知哪裏，全部被你們"打散"了，屆時立法會還有何可以討論、查問和追究的？
I really to draw Mr LEUNG Che - cheungs attention that we no longer have the chance because according to the Governments schedule the 180 households probably affected by the Wang Chau Phase 1 development would be forced to move out in March . These people will lose their homes . People who are most seriously affected and unjustly treated will be relocated to unknown places leaving their fellow villagers
其實由2016年立法會財務委員會討論基本工程儲備基金整體撥款涉及收地補償的開支時，橫洲的居民已不斷前來立法會抗議，希望政府還他們一個公道。
In fact since the Finance Committee of the Legislative Council FC discussed the compensation for land acquisition through the block allocations mechanism under the Capital Works Reserve Fund in 2016 Wang Chau residents have constantly come to the Legislative Council to stage protests hoping that the Government will do justice to them
今年2018年，他們又再來立法會財務委員會示威，因為財務委員會又會再討論基本工程儲備基金整體撥款有關橫洲徵地補償的開支。
In 2018 they protested again at an FC meeting because FC would again discuss the compensation for land acquisition at Wang Chau through the block allocations mechanism under the Capital Works Reserve Fund
主席，一群長期被這制度折磨的人，究竟何時才能得到公道？
President when will justice be served for a group of people who have long been tortured under this system?
主席，重新將這件事暴露於公眾眼前，是十分重要的。
President it is very important for the incident to be in the public eye again
很多同事過去對橫洲問題有很多立場，但在過去一年多，大家的立場已逐漸拉近。
Many colleagues held different positions on the Wang Chau incident in the past but in the past year or so our different positions have been closer
一年多前，我經常會說"先棕後綠"，問為何不先發展棕地而要將村民迫遷？
A year or so ago I often insisted on developing brownfield sites first Green Belt sites later . I queried why brownfield sites were not developed first so that villagers would not be forced to move out
由新界東北洪水橋到元朗南和橫洲，也是用同樣方法處理。
The same approach is also adopted in connection with the developments in Northeast New Territories Hung Shui Kiu Yuen Long South and Wang Chau
但是，既然財政有盈餘，一個富裕的政府要發展、開發土地，為何不能更公平地對待所有人，從而令其想達成的事，不致蒙上"官商鄉黑"勾結或是欺善怕惡的污點？
Nevertheless since we have a huge fiscal surplus an affluent Government should treat everyone fairly when developing certain sites so that it will not be criticized for government - business - rural - triad collusion or bullying the weak and fearing the strong
主席，最後，我很想再次提醒各位同事，今次我要求翻這筆舊帳是2013年和2014年的事，所涉及的官員，包括梁振英、曾俊華和張炳良，均已不在其位。
President lastly I would like to remind colleagues once again that I am raking up incidents that happened in 2013 and 2014 and the officials involved including LEUNG Chun - ying John TSANG and Anthony CHEUNG have already departed
新人事、新作風，新政府應該有勇氣翻開之前 見不得光的事，使之重返正軌。
A new broom sweeps clean . The new government should have the courage to expose things that could not be revealed in the past and put things back on the right track
這是今屆政府可以對市民和立法會作出的承擔，希望各位同事支持我的議案。
This is a commitment that the current Government can make to the public and the Legislative Council . I hope Honourable colleagues will support my motion
運輸及房屋局在2016年年底公開研究報告供市民查閱。
The Transport and Housing Bureau released the study report to the public at the end of 2016
所謂"官商鄉黑"，"官"和"商"兩方面有否與顧問串通？
In the so - called government - business - rural - triad collusion do government and business collude with the consultants?
當一間顧問公司同時承接了政府和私人企業的生意，而涉及的兩個項目又相毗鄰時，現時並無任何機制阻止同類事件發生。
When a consultant is simultaneously engaged in projects of the Government and of a private enterprise and the two projects involved sites that are adjacent to one another there is currently no mechanism to stop the occurrence of such incidents
運輸及房屋局現時向立法會申請24億元撥款，以進行第1期基礎建設工程。
The Transport and Housing Bureau is currently seeking a funding of 2.4 billion from the Legislative Council for taking forward the infrastructural works in Phase 1
政府究竟有何制度或安排，以確保地產商不會佔政府便宜和利用政府？
What kind of systems or arrangements are in place to make sure that property developers will not take advantage of the Government?
代理主席，我發言反對朱凱廸議員動議本會傳召運輸及房屋局局長於3月21日到立法會席前，就港珠澳大橋工程的財務情況、交通流量估算等作證及提供證據。
Deputy President I rise to speak against the motion moved by Mr CHU Hoi - dick to summon the Secretary for Transport and Housing to attend before the Council on 21 March to testify and give evidence on the financial condition traffic throughput estimation and so on of the Hong Kong - Zhuhai - Macao Bridge HZMB
港珠澳大橋工程相當複雜，動用了龐大的公帑，涉及公眾利益。
The HZMB project is a very complex project involving a large amount of public funds and also public interest
因此，政府定期向立法會交通事務委員會匯報港珠澳大橋的工程進展及提交進度報告，負責的官員除了解答議員的提問之外，還會不時應議員的要求，提交補充資料文件。
Therefore the Government has reported regularly to the Panel on Transport of the Legislative Council and submitted reports on the progress of the HZMB project . The officials in charge have not only answered the questions raised by Members but also provided supplementary papers at the request of Members from time to time
此外，議員亦可以透過立法會會議的質詢不論是口頭或書面向政府要求提供港珠澳大橋工程的相關資料，而最近兩次立法會會議上亦有議員提出有關大橋工程的口頭質詢。
Moreover Members may request the Government to provide the relevant information on the HZMB project by means of asking questions―oral or written―at the meetings of the Council . At the last two meetings of the Council Members also asked oral questions on the HZMB project
我在這個會期擔任交通事務委員會主席只有數個月，便已先後收到多位議員就港珠澳大橋事宜來函，包括大橋的車輛通行收費、大橋兩個巨型鋼圓筒異常沉降等。
Having served as the Chairman of the Panel on Transport in this term for only several months I have received letters from a number of Members on issues about HZMB including the toll levels of HZMB the settlement of two large circular steel cells at unusually quick pace etc
我已經把有關信件轉交運輸及房屋局，要求局方就議員的關注提供進一步的資料。
I have passed the letters to the Transport and Housing Bureau and requested the Bureau to provide further information in response to the concerns raised by Members
如有個別議員希望進一步了解港珠澳大橋的相關事宜，相信負責的官員樂意與議員會面，作詳盡的解釋。
If individual Members wish to know more about the issues relating to HZMB I believe the officials in charge are happy to meet with them and give them explanations in detail
