這些都是要處理的個案，但我們看到聯辦處或其他辦事處，都未有正視或可直接解決市民的問題。
These are the cases that need to be handled but we can see that neither JO nor other offices have faced up to or directly solved the problems of the public
柯創盛議員亦有提出，是否應該先調解，如果不行才去法庭處理。
Mr Wilson OR has also queried whether we should first mediate and in case of failure go to court
但是，局方都知道，如果要小市民去打官司，為了數萬元去打官司，費時失財，其實有很大壓力。
However the Bureau knows that ordinary citizens will be under tremendous pressure if they are to go to court for tens of thousands of dollars as it will cost them time and money
在過往處理的不少個案中，未處理到的個案的相關人士便已經患上抑鬱症或者精神病。
In many of the cases handled previously the person concerned had already suffered from depression or mental illness before the case was handled
希望局方考慮是否有可能多做一些調解，尤其是現在西九龍有一個調解中心，但那裏只做小額錢債的調解。
I hope the Bureau will consider whether it is possible to do more mediation especially when there is a mediation centre in West Kowloon now but it only does mediation for small claims
我想問局方，會不會擴展現在調解中心的服務，以覆蓋社區的調解呢？
May I ask the Bureau whether it will expand the services of the mediation centre to cover community mediation?
主席，調解其實是個很好的方法，避免大家用大量金錢與時間打官司，但當中需要一個共通點，大家要有共識，才能達成調解。
President mediation is actually a very good way to avoid spending a lot of money and time on lawsuits but it requires a common ground and both parties have to have a consensus before reaching a settlement by mediation
某程度上，雙方都要接受那個方向，一人願意走一步，多做一些，才能去到調解的步驟。
To a certain extent both parties have to accept that direction and each party is willing to take a step and do more before they can seek mediation
所以，過去滲水或滴水的個案，屬於相對比較技術性，只要找到問題所在，釐清責任，做好自己的本分，很多問題也可以解決得到。
Therefore past cases of water seepage or dripping were only technical issues and as long as the parties could detect the problems delineate their responsibilities and do their part many problems could be solved
當中可能會牽涉不同政策局，所以長遠而言，我們需要仔細看看現在不同調解個案的類別、內容，看看哪方面的成功率比較高、需求比較多、效果比較好，然後再深入研究一下將來的發展方向。
It may involve different Policy Bureaux and thus in the long run we need to take a closer look at the types and contents of different mediation cases to see which areas have a higher success rate more demand and better results and then look into the future direction of development
主席，我十分認同剛才環境局副局長的說法，很多時候，鄰里糾紛或是居民之間的投訴，第一時間找物業管理方面的人處理，如果這能得到有效處理，很多問題也可以解決。
President I very much agree with what the Under Secretary for the Environment has said just now . In many cases neighbourhood disputes or residents complaints against each other should be first handled by people from the property management office and if these can be handled effectively many problems can actually be solved
就此，我又察覺到，很多時候有些投訴或者糾紛，其實未必一定涉及法律上的問題。
In this connection I have also noticed that many complaints or disputes may not necessarily involve legal issues
就這方面，如果市民明白自己的責任和權利，很多投訴或糾紛可能不會發生。
In this regard if people understand their responsibilities and rights many complaints or disputes might not have occurred
就這方面，我不知道局長有否計劃加強民政事務處的角色？
In this regard may I know whether the Secretary has any plans to enhance the role of the District Offices?
主席，其實過往我們都知道，很多時如果向社區內的物業管理公司、管理處提供更好的支援，很多區內的小問題都可以變成沒有問題。
President we actually know that if we provide better support to the property management companies and management offices in the community many minor problems in the district can be turned into no problems at all
例如，我記得我在勞工及福利局的時候，我們討論地區人口老化，有很多腦退化症患者，當時很多物管公司與社會福利署合作，讓物管前線人員，尤其是保安員，懂得如果遇到這些問題，如何去跟進。
For example I remember that when I was in the Labour and Welfare Bureau we discussed the ageing population in the district and there were a lot of dementia patients . At that time many property management companies worked with the Social Welfare Department so that the frontline property management staff especially the security personnel knew how to follow up if they encountered these problems
有關滋擾的法律原則相對簡單，如果掌握了，這只是所謂基本常識的問題，以及最重要的是態度的問題。
The legal principles surrounding nuisances are relatively simple and if one grasps them the issue is only one concerning common sense and most importantly attitude
究竟會否有些想法、有些措拖，可以鼓勵市民在有事時先坐下來商討？
Are there any ideas or measures that can encourage people to first sit down for negotiation when they have problems?
因為很多時候，無論管理公司也好，區議員也好，或者業主立案法團也好，越來越政治化，有太多爭議。
In many cases among management companies District Council members or owners corporations too many controversies arise as things are being increasingly politicized
但是，政府、民政事務處比較上是中立的，還有人肯聽，所以除了管理問題糾紛可以協調一下之外，滋擾問題也是重要問題，希望局長不要迴避問題，要想出方法去做，不要東拉西扯。
However the Government and the District Offices are relatively neutral and there are still people who are willing to listen to them . Apart from management disputes that can be coordinated nuisance is also an important issue . I hope that the Secretary will not evade the issue and come up with ideas to address it instead of beating around the bush
例如，剛才柯創盛議員提到很多噪音、光滋擾等問題，正如剛才謝議員所說，相關法例是比較清晰的，甚至去到滲水、漏水的情況，法例亦都非常清晰。
For example Mr Wilson OR has just mentioned problems such as noise and light nuisance and as Mr TSE has said earlier the legislation is relatively clear . Even when it comes to water seepage and water leakage the legislation is also very clear
當然，很多爭拗是來自甚麼，我都會審視，例如比較多的個案涉及滲水，需要一個程序及時間處理。
Certainly I will examine the cause of the arguments . For example there are many cases involving water seepage and we need to spend time undergoing a procedure to deal with them
如果找不到源頭，香港的樓宇有時是比較老舊，很難找出水是來自窗、牆還是裏面的喉管，去到這個時間，就要去到第三階段，進行一些專業調查。
If the source cannot be identified―as buildings in Hong Kong are often quite old it is difficult to ascertain whether the water comes from the windows walls or pipes inside―it is then necessary to go to the third stage of professional investigation
當然，我現在所說的全部都是剛才我所說的兩個辦事處，即屋宇署及食環署的聯辦處的一些工作流程。
Certainly what I am talking about is the workflow of the two offices that I have mentioned just now namely JO set up by the Buildings Department and FEHD
當然，剛才議員都提到，最終的誘因方面，大家坐下來商討解決問題已經是一個最大的誘因。
Certainly regarding the ultimate incentive Members have just mentioned it is already the biggest incentive for people to sit down and negotiate a solution to the problem
大家鄰里之間有問題，其實不需要每次都去到出律師信、吵架，甚至暴力衝突，大家簡單坐下來了解情況，找專業人士找出問題所在，大家負上自己應有的責任，很多這些住屋相關問題，其實都是可以解決的。
When there are problems between neighbours there is no need to go so far as to issue a lawyers letter or engage in quarrels or even violent confrontations . Should people simply sit down to examine the situation hire professionals to find out where the problem lies and shoulder their fair share of responsibility many of these housing - related problems can actually be solved
主席，垃圾徵費經過前後15年的研究和討論，今天終於交到立法會表決。
President after 15 years of study and discussion the legislation on waste charging is finally submitted to the Legislative Council for voting today
有人形容這次法例是移風易俗，將會改變市民的生活習慣。
Some say that the present legislation will bring about changes in customs and the lifestyle practices of the public
正如我們看日本電視劇，有時會看到日本人花不少時間處 理家居垃圾，要將垃圾分類，甚至不同日子只會接收不同類型的垃圾，做法極為繁複。
When watching Japanese television dramas we sometimes see the Japanese people spending much time on handling domestic waste and waste separation . The way of handling is extremely complicated as different kinds of waste will be collected on separate days
香港的做法當然簡單得多，將來除了要繳費外，亦要習慣花時間處理垃圾，但為了環保，相信香港人會支持。
Though the arrangement in Hong Kong will be much simpler the public still need to get used to spending time on handling waste in addition to paying waste charges . Yet I believe the people of Hong Kong will support this for the sake of environmental protection
法例將來正式生效後，一個三人家庭每月便要繳付大概30元至50元的徵費，從而鼓勵市民減少製造垃圾，以及將垃圾分類和回收。
When the legislation comes into effect in the future a three - member household will be required to pay a monthly charge of about 30 to 50 which aims at encouraging the public to reduce separate and recycle waste
如果違規擺放廢物，可以遭定額罰款1,500元，屢犯或情節嚴重可以判更重刑罰。
Any illegal depositing of waste will be subject to a fixed penalty of 1,500 while repeated or serious violations will be liable to heavier penalties
雖然每月數十元的徵費不算多，不過現在全世界處於抗疫期，香港有很多行業處於艱難的時期，而且環球疫情仍未知何時平息，現在通過計劃，社會可能會出現不滿情緒。
A monthly charge of a few dozen dollars is not a significant amount . However since the whole world is now fighting the pandemic many sectors in Hong Kong are facing a difficult time and it is not known when the global pandemic will subside the passage of the scheme may arouse discontent in society
然而，政府亦都進退兩難，因為本屆立法會將於10月底完結，如果法案未能通過便會失效，將來即使重新立法，所有程序都要重新再做，屆時不知會拖到何年何月。
Nevertheless the Government is also caught in a dilemma . As the current term of the Legislative Council will expire at the end of October the Bill will lapse if it cannot be passed . Even if a piece of new legislation is to be enacted in the future all the procedures have to be gone through once more and no one knows how long it will drag on
為了令法案順利通過，政府展示了極大的彈性。
To facilitate the smooth passage of the Bill the Government has shown enormous flexibility
政府決定，法案通過後將會有18個月準備期，讓市民及政府可以適應，以及考慮經濟情況後再決定生效日期。
The Government has decided that a preparatory period of 18 months will be put in place after the passage of the Bill for the public and the Government to adapt to the new arrangement . Thereafter it can decide on the commencement date having regard to the economic situation
政府更表明，如果18個月後經濟仍然不理想，可以再延長準備期，同時計劃在實施初期，會向市民免費派發垃圾袋，之後再決定生效日期。
The Government has also made it clear that if the economy remains unsatisfactory 18 months later the preparatory period can be extended and that it has planned to distribute free garbage bags to the public during the early stage of implementation of the scheme while the commencement date will be decided later
決定生效日期前亦會先諮詢立法會意見。
In addition the Legislative Council will be consulted before the commencement date is fixed
政府這次做法其實是想告訴大家，政府會等疫情平息、經濟好轉後，才會正式實施，顯示了施政可以靈活變通，讓立法會可以先通過法案。
In doing so the Government actually wants to tell us that the scheme will only be formally implemented when the pandemic has subsided and the economy has recovered . This shows that there is flexibility in its governance by having the Legislative Council passed the Bill first
事實上，政府只要肯變通，很多問題都可以妥善解決，希望政府日後也可用這種務實的態度，多與立法會溝通。
Evidently as long as the Government is willing to be flexible many problems can be resolved properly . I hope that the Government will adopt this pragmatic attitude and communicate more with the Legislative Council in the future
主席，我是港島一個中型屋苑的業主委員會主席，參加了大廈管理工作很多年，很明白處理垃圾的重要性，亦知道要改變居民處理垃圾的習慣，其實不易。
President I am the chairman of the owners committee of a mid - scale housing estate on Hong Kong Island . Having been taking part in building management matters for many years I am well aware of the importance of waste disposal and know that changing residents habits in handling waste is no easy task
事實上，根據政府的中期目標，希望將固體廢物逐步減少40%至45%。
In fact the Governments medium - term goal is to gradually reduce the solid waste disposal rate by 40 % to 45 %
但根據外國經驗，實施初期只可以減少15%至25%。
However according to overseas experience the rate can only be reduced by 15 % to 25 % during the early stage of implementation
所以，要達到減廢目標，除了徵費外，更加應改變市民的習慣，真正做到移風易俗，需要多管齊下，特別是做好公民教育，使市民明白到社會上人人都有責任。
Therefore to achieve waste reduction targets apart from imposing charges it is more important to change the publics habits . A break with old customs and habits requires a multi - pronged approach especially good civic education to enable the public to understand that everyone in society shares a responsibility
日本其實是一個好例子，他們可以成功做到源頭減廢及最嚴格的垃圾分類，這是因為日本人會自律去做。
Japan is indeed a good example . It has succeeded in reducing waste at source and implementing the most stringent waste separation arrangement because the Japanese people are self - disciplined enough to do so and consider it a civic responsibility
他們認為這是公民責任，這是日本公民教育成功之處。
This is the success of civic education in Japan
事實上，單憑徵費要達到減廢目標是不可能的。
It is actually impossible to achieve the goal of waste reduction by imposing charges alone
歸根究底，公民教育及環保意識才是最關鍵的因素，政府應該從這方面入手。
In the final analysis civic education and environmental awareness are the most crucial factors . The Government should start from these areas
政府雖然有做宣傳，但近年的政府宣傳工作，可能手法已經太落後，宣傳效 果往往不理想。
Despite the Governments publicity efforts such efforts often failed to yield satisfactory results in recent years probably due to its outdated approach
這次垃圾徵費事關重大，政府必須做好有關工作，現在政府有18個月計劃，希望可以想到一些比較到位的宣傳。
This time as waste charging is a matter of great importance the Government must do the relevant work properly . Now that the Government has 18 months for planning it is hoped that the Government can come up with some relatively effective publicity strategies
我認為，政府可以邀請KOL網上拍片推廣，但不要規範他們以甚麼標準來做，而是應鼓勵KOL自由發揮，相信效果會更好。
I suggest that the Government should invite KOLs to produce online promotion videos . However instead of setting out a lot of rules and criteria the Government should give them a free hand for I believe this will be more effective
此外，公民教育始終要由學校教育做起，希望革新之後的公民與社會發展科真的可以多教一些公民教育，培養出學生良好的公民意識。
Moreover civic education has to start from school education after all . It is hoped that more civic education can be taught through the revamped subject of Citizenship and Social Development to foster students civic - mindedness in a positive way
政府雖然過去多年來都有很多推動減廢的工作，但減廢指標不升反降，目前廢物回收的回收率只有29%，人均都市固體廢物棄置量由2011年的平均1.27公斤，增至2016年每日1.41公斤，2019年更上升至1.47公斤，與2013年當局制訂2022年下降至0.8公斤的目標，相距也有點遠，局長。
These are all important . Although the Government has made a lot of efforts to promote waste reduction over the years the figures of waste reduction have not increased but have decreased instead . Currently the waste recovery rate is only 29 % and the per capita MSW disposal per day has increased from an average of 1.27 kg in 2011 to 1.41 kg in 2016 and even increased to 1.47 kg in 2019 which is a bit far from the target set by the Government in 2013 of reducing it to 0.8 kg by 2022 Secretary
所以，香港寸金尺土，確實不應該單靠堆填區，把廢物不斷地丟進堆填區當作看不見，又或單靠堆填區擴建。
Therefore given the scarcity of land in Hong Kong indeed we should not rely solely on landfills and keep dumping waste at landfills as if the waste will vanish nor should we rely solely on landfill extensions
所以，在這個前提下，落實垃圾收費有其原因。
So under this premise there are reasons to implement waste charging
同樣，與其他早年已實施垃圾徵費的地區比較，其實廢物回收都是非常重要的。
Also compared with other regions where waste charging was already introduced years ago waste recovery is actually very important
不得不承認，香港的廢物回收起步較遲，回收工業亦要政府支援。
There is no denying that Hong Kong has started a bit late in waste recycling and the recycling industry is also in need of government support
自然地，例如免費回收廚餘，現在還只是提出先導計劃，待實施垃圾收費後，才陸續安排免費收取餐飲界分類出來的廚餘，運送至廚餘循環再用的設施，但何時才做到家居住宅廚餘回收呢？
Naturally when it comes to free recovery of food waste for instance only a pilot scheme has been introduced so far . It is only after the implementation of waste charging that arrangements will be made gradually for free collection of separated food waste from the catering industry and for transportation of such waste to food waste recycling facilities . But when will there be collection of household or domestic food waste?
我和局長之前都看過一些廚餘機，看起來似乎不錯，可否多提供這類設施，盡快鼓勵 更多屋苑採用，我知道現時一些大型屋苑正在實施先導計劃，可否再做得快點，配合廢物徵費呢？
The Secretary and I have looked at some food waste composters before and they seemed to be quite good . Can more such facilities be provided to encourage usage by more housing estates as soon as possible? . I understand that some housing estates are implementing the pilot scheme now
數天前，我以環境事務委員會主席的身份跟局長和委員一起參觀O․PARK1的有機資源回收中心及T․PARK的污泥處理廠採用共厭氧消化技術處理廚餘的情況。
Is it possible to speed up a bit to tie in with waste charging? . A few days ago in my capacity as Chairman of the Panel on Environmental Affairs I together with the Secretary and members of the Panel visited O․PARK1 an organic resources recovery centre and T․PARK a sludge treatment plant using anaerobic co - digestion technology for treating food waste
但是，以日計達3,353公噸的廚餘，即香港絕大部分的廚餘，這些設施是否足夠呢？
However are these facilities adequate for treating the 3 353 tonnes of food waste generated per day which account for the vast majority of food waste in Hong Kong?
所以，如果實施廢物徵費後，可能便要想辦法如何可以多做一些，以處理這方面的工作。
Therefore after the implementation of waste charging it may be necessary to think about ways to enhance the capacity in order to cope with the work in this area
所以，局長，我們同意就廢物徵費，但這方面的任務交給你了，希望局長想想如何可以改變市民的習慣，使他們可以慢慢地在適應後去做。
Therefore Secretary while we agree that charges should be imposed for waste disposal this task is handed to you now . I hope that the Secretary will consider how the publics habits can be changed so that they can gradually get used to the new arrangements
所以，法案通過後會有18個月的所謂準備期，這18個月是很重要的，我們亦期望局長在法例開始實施時可以免費派發合理數量的垃圾袋，這方面我們有一個目標，我也跟局長多次提出，我們希望可以免費派發一年的膠袋。
In this connection there will be a so - called preparatory period of 18 months after the passage of the Bill . This 18 - month period is very important and we also hope that when the legislation comes into effect the Secretary can distribute a reasonable number of garbage bags for free and we have a target in this regard . As I have repeatedly suggested to the Secretary we hope that plastic bags can be distributed free of charge for one year
當然，這可能有一個時限，而對於一些特定群組，可能須派發較長時間，我希望日後政府可以跟立法會好好商量。
Of course there may be a time limit for distribution and for some particular groups perhaps the distribution period should be longer . I hope that the Government can properly discuss it with the Legislative Council in the future
第二，我亦希望當局承諾會定期向環境事務委員會匯報準備期內各項工作的進度，特別是有否出現"垃圾圍城"的情況。
Secondly I also hope that the Government will undertake to report regularly to the Panel on Environmental Affairs on the progress of work in various respects during the preparatory period especially on whether there is the situation where our city is like being besieged by rubbish
在準備期過後，亦要得到我們的支持後才訂立法例的生效日期，並以附屬法例處理。
After the preparatory period the Government should have our support before setting the commencement date of the legislation by way of subsidiary legislation
主席，在上述情況下，我重申這是不容易的決定，但我們同意修訂這項法例，讓香港在落實廢物徵費政策上可以向前走。
President under the above circumstances let me reiterate that this is not an easy decision but we agree to the amendment of this ordinance to enable Hong Kong to move forward in implementing the waste charging policy
對於我剛才特別提及的一些舊區和舊大廈，我期待政府在這個準備期內，可以多做宣傳教育，讓市民知道要有所準備。
Regarding the old districts and old buildings that I specifically mentioned earlier on I hope that the Government can step up publicity and education during the preparatory period so that the public are aware of the need to make preparation
正如我們經常說，我也跟局長多次討論，應該多些"落地"，例如有些朋友和地區人士原來也可以為環保出一分力，便應多鼓勵他們做，以致建立一種氛圍，正如剛才邵家輝議員所說的，可能最初大家都不習慣，但原來逐漸便發覺是好事，了解有甚麼好處，盡量多做教育的工作，希望在正式推行時可以事半功倍。
As we always say and as I have discussed with the Secretary many times there should be more local involvement . For example if some people and members of the local community can contribute to environmental protection they should be given more encouragement to do so in order to build up an atmosphere and just as Mr SHIU Ka - fai said just now while people may not be used to it at first gradually they will realize that it is a good thing and understand its benefits . Public education should be stepped up by all means in the hope that when it is officially implemented we can get twice the result with half the effort
主席，我支持這項《條例草案》。
President I support this Bill
我現在向各位提出的待議議題是：《2021年法律執業者條例草案》予以三讀並通過。
I now propose the question to you and that is That the Legal Practitioners Amendment Bill 2021 be read the Third time and do pass
代理主席，現時在香港社會，即使問社會大眾：律師、大律師和資深大律師之間的分別，其實不是每一個人都說得出。
Deputy President nowadays in the Hong Kong society when the general public are asked the difference among a solicitor a barrister and a Senior Counsel SC not everyone can tell the answer
我在社區工作都有相當長時間，由20幾年前我成為律師到今日，其實老百姓還在問我：究竟律師與大律師之間有甚麼分別？
I have been serving the community for quite a long time . Since I became a lawyer some 20 years ago people have still been asking me exactly what is the difference between a solicitor and a barrister?
是否大律師較律師高或大呢？
Is a barrister of a higher rank or more superior than a solicitor?
很多人都問："張議員，你何時可以升級做大律師？
Many people ask Mr CHEUNG when can you be promoted to barrister?
"20年前與20年後都有人問相同的問題，所以可見老百姓不太弄得清楚這幾個詞之間的關係。
The same question was asked 20 years ago and is still asked 20 years later so it is clear that common people are not quite sure about the relationship among these terms
當然，對我來說，我會形容事務律師就好像普通的診所醫生，無論大病、小病，傷風感冒也好，嚴重的疾病也好，通常第一個找的就是普通科醫生，這就有如事務律師。
Of course to me I would describe a solicitor as being like a general practitioner in a clinic . Whether it is a major or minor illness a cold or a flu or a serious illness the patient will usually go to a general practitioner first . This is the same case with a solicitor
如果涉及到特別是一些與訟務、訴訟或法庭打官司有關的事宜，事務律師很多時候就會將個案再轉介大律師，就等於普通診所醫生都會找專科醫生處理特別情況。
When it comes to matters particularly relating to advocacy litigation or court cases the solicitor will often refer such cases to a barrister just like a general practitioner would make referrals to a specialist for treatment of special conditions
記得我當年入行時，有一些剛大學畢業......修畢法律課程後，我也有同學考入了律政司。
I remember when I entered the profession there were some people who had just graduated from university After completing the law programme a classmate of mine got admitted and entered the Department of Justice DoJ
他沒有私人執業，在律政司實習，在律政司繼續做律政人員。
He did not go into private practice but became a trainee in DoJ where he continued to work as a legal officer
我記得當時這位同學是用事務律師的途徑加入律政司，但加入幾年之後，我們有次聊天的時候他對我說，他加入後，每一日他做的工作就是在法庭特別是區域法院打官司，每一日也在打官司，與其他在外面私人執業大律師的同學一樣，他們每日都在法庭相遇。
I remember that this classmate joined DoJ as a solicitor . But a few years later he told me during a conversation that since he joined DoJ his day - to - day work was to engage in lawsuits in court especially the District Court . He engaged in lawsuits every day just like other classmates who were barristers in private practice
他的工作與私人執業的大律師的工作，性質上可以說是沒有分別。
They met in court every day . The nature of his work could be regarded as no difference from that of a barrister in private practice
但 卻因為律政司的系統與私人執業有所不同，無論是有事務律師或大律師的背景加入後也視乎被派到哪個部門、做甚麼工作即使是有事務律師的背景，加入後如果被安排做訟務的工作，其實就有如大律師的工作。
However given the differences between the regimes of DoJ and private practice whether someone is from a solicitor or a barrister background―also depending on which division and what work he or she is assigned to after joining DoJ―even coming from a solicitor background if he or she is assigned to undertake litigation matters the work would then be comparable to that of a barrister
這亦說出了，入行的時候，究竟我們是事務大律師還是訟務大律師，其實是我們的選擇；即究竟想做普通醫生，即普通門診醫生，還是專科醫生，這並不代表他們在能力上有所差異，只是他們之後在執業上的發展道路有自己的選擇。
It also tells the fact that when we enter the profession it is indeed our choice to be barristers or solicitors . In other words whether someone wants to be a general practitioner ie . outpatient general practitioners or specialists does not reflect any difference in their competence only that they pursue development of professional pathways of their own choice
正如我剛才所說，我這位同學的經驗非常豐富，但的確在現行的制度裏，無論他打官司多麼優秀，無論行家如何稱頌他，法官如何讚許他或大家認同他也好，他也沒有途徑可以成為資深大律師。
As I have just said this classmate of mine is very experienced . But it is true that under the current regime no matter how outstanding his performance in lawsuits has been no matter how much he has been commended by peers no matter how much he has been lauded by judges or no matter how much he has been recognized there was no way for him to become SC
但是，與我們同期加入律政司但有大律師背景的同袍就可能成為資深大律師雖然他們做相同的工作。
However our fellow batchmates who joined DoJ around the same time but from a barrister background can become SC even though the job is the same
當然，我認為這的確是針對現時系統不同造成的一些不公平的問題，希望透過《條例草案》解決。
Of course I think this is indeed targeted at some unfairness caused by the different regimes which hopefully can be addressed through the Bill
當然，有人會說現時這樣做，一個事務律師，給予他資深大律師的名銜，會否有不公平？
Of course some people may ask whether it is unfair to give a solicitor the title of SC
《條例草案》審議期間政府當局曾指出，又或是官方提供的文件都清楚指出，《條例草案》是讓非大律師的律政人員有資格獲考慮"獲考慮"被委任為資深大律師。
As pointed out by the Administration during the scrutiny of the Bill or as clearly stated in the papers provided by the Administration the Bill is to enable legal officers to be eligible for consideration―for consideration―to be appointed as SC
"獲考慮"的意思是甚麼？
What is the meaning of consideration?
