主席，說到保護兒童政策，傳媒及社交媒體於近月曾披露多宗屍體發現及死因不明個案，並指出從6月至今，這類所謂自殺個案高達300宗以上，當中有不少涉及兒童及青少年。
President when it comes to the policy on protection of children it should be noted that a number of dead body found cases and cases of death of unknown cause have been reported in the press and social media in recent months . It has also been pointed out that since June this year the number of the so - called suspected suicide cases is as high as over 300 and many of them involved children and youngsters

局長是負責落實保護兒童政策的官員，目睹這種情況，除剛才提到要求前線單位加強提供服務之外，我想問他有否親自探訪年紀最小的被捕示威者？
As the Bureau Director responsible for implementing the policy on protection of children and in the face of such a situation I would like to ask the Secretary Apart from asking frontline units to enhance provision of services as mentioned just now has he personally met with the youngest protesters arrested?

因為現時這場風波已對學校，不論是中學或小學，帶來了很大的衝擊。
It should be noted that the current disturbances have already brought a very great impact to schools secondary and primary schools alike

Has the Secretary promoted within the Bureau the setting up of a special working group to examine ways to protect children and assigned officers to conduct visits to schools to communicate with youngsters of different backgrounds in order to understand their psychological condition at present and provide further protection to children?
因為現時有越來越多兒童的情緒受到影響，大家亦看到一個趨勢，有越來越多兒童參與暴力衝擊。
As we can see more and more children are emotionally affected now and there is also a trend that more and more children are taking part in violent attacks
主席，根據現有機制，例如當學校出現這種情況時，有關的事情會交由一個特定的危機小組處理。

主席，廣東話有一句話是"及時雨"，我們剛巧碰到何謂及時雨的例子，就是所有香港人也熟悉的超級富豪宣布撥出2億元，不用很複雜，只要符合3個條件便可以申領，這些措施才能夠真正幫助處於水深火熱的中小企。
President there is a Cantonese phrase called timely rain and we happen to have an example showing what timely rain means . And that is a super tycoon whom all Hong Kong people know well announced that he would fork out 200 million for SMEs and that all SMEs could apply without going through complicated procedures as long as they satisfied three conditions . This measure can genuinely help SMEs in deep water now
正如我剛才提及，除了這3輪措施之外，我們會密切留意情況，當某方面需要實施紓困措施時，便會適時採取行動。
As I just said in addition to the three rounds of measures we will closely monitor the situation and take timely actions to implement relief measures as and when such needs arise
其實，核心問題就是要直接回應市民的五大訴求，打破困局，才可以令香港人保持對香港的信心，保持香港人的原有生活方式。
In fact the core issue is that the Government must directly respond to the five demands in order to break the deadlock and restore the confidence of the people in Hong Kong and enable them to keep their original way of life
特區政 府已開始在這方面進行部署，當社會回復平靜，我們便會加把勁在各個經濟範疇多做工作，包括海外推廣、內地連繫及其他方面，至於停止暴力的工作，則需要得到全社會支持。
The SAR Government has started doing planning in this area . When peace is restored in society we will make an extra effort to do work on different economic fronts including overseas promotion Mainland liaison etc . As for the work on stopping violence we need the support of whole society
所以，我們願意由政府與各界在這方面一同努力。
Thus we as the Government are willing to take the lead and work together with different sectors of society on this work
我的問題很簡單直接，不要說那麼多廢話，他會否請林鄭月娥直接回應五大訴求，屆時他提到的所謂暴力情況便會停止。
He had better save his rubbish talk . Will he ask Carrie LAM to directly respond to the five demands? . If he can do that the violent situation he mentioned will cease
主席，就着五大訴求，其實政府已多次提出我們的立場，我沒有補充了。
President the Government has repeatedly expressed its stand towards the five demands . I have nothing to add
政府可否嘗試想一想，在我們拆局時能否取得中間點？
Can the Government try to strike a balance when it disentangles the present situation?
我不是要當局一口答應，而是要設法找出一個中間方案，以及為香港社會現時的經濟及政治困局尋找新的方向。
I am not saying that the authorities have to adopt my view immediately but they must strive to work out a balanced proposal and find a new way forward to break the present economic and political deadlocks in our society now
主席，我想引述特首在9月5日會見傳媒時宣布的4項措施，第四項措施提到，經過兩三個月當時是兩三個月，現時是5個月因為修例而引起的衝突，社會大眾都意識到我們是有深層次矛盾，有些長期積壓的政治、經濟及社會的問題。我們亦具體聽到，這些深層次問題涉及房屋及土地供應、貧富懸殊、社會公義、青年人的機遇，以及公眾參與政府決策等。
President I wish to reiterate the four measures mentioned by the Chief Executive when meeting the press on 5 September . In mentioning the fourth measure she said that after more than two months of social unrest―it had been two months at that time but it has been five months now―it is obvious to many of us that there are deep - seated conflicts and long - accumulated political economic and social issues including the oft - mentioned housing and land supply income distribution social justice and mobility and opportunities for our young people as well as how the public could be fully engaged in the Governments decision - making
所以，特首亦提出，希望建立一個對話平台，可以讓大家更深入及直接地與我們一同探討這些問題。
Hence the Chief Executive also proposes the setting up of a dialogue platform for in - depth and direct discussion with us on these issues
特首亦提到，她將會邀請社會領袖、專家及學者，就這些深層次問題，進行獨立的研究及檢討，向政府提出建議。
She also mentioned that she will invite community leaders professionals and academics to independently examine and review these deep - seated problems and to advise the Government on finding solutions
主席，謝偉俊議員的主體質詢很清楚，他問政府有否評估政府推動修例所引發的廣泛民憤，以及有何措施挽回國際社會及市民對香港前景的信心？
President Mr Paul TSEs main question is clear . He asked whether the Government had assessed the widespread anger among the people which had been triggered by the Governments proposed legislative amendments and what measures it had in place to restore the confidence of the international community and members of the public in Hong Kongs future
但是，局長只作簡單回應，就是止暴制亂，只要恢復秩序便算。
But the Secretarys response is brief . He simply says that the Government will stop violence curb disorder and restore peace and order
我想問局長有否清楚評估修例所引發的廣泛民憤為何？
May I ask the Secretaries whether they have made a thorough assessment on the widespread anger among the people which has been triggered by the proposed legislative amendments?
剛才陳志全議員清楚指出，民憤在於警暴及濫捕，以至政府放棄了"高度自治"。
As Mr CHAN Chi - chuen clearly pointed out just now the anger of the people originates from the Polices violence and indiscriminate arrests as well as the Governments abandonment of a high degree of autonomy
但是，他沒有回答剛才陳志全議員所說的五大訴求，而梁美芬議員建議成立一個委員會，他亦沒有回答。
But the Secretary did not respond to the five demands Mr CHAN Chi - chuen mentioned just now neither did he respond to the proposal of establishing a panel that Dr Priscilla LEUNG put forth
他會否評估民憤對國際社會的影響？
Will he assess the impact of peoples anger on the international community?
社會因為反修例風波而嚴重撕裂，令人痛心。
It is heart - breaking to see society deeply divided because of the opposition to amend the law concerning surrender of fugitive offenders
面對當下的政治困局，政府似乎束手無策......
The Government seems rather helpless in face of the present political predicament
梁議員，如果你不滿意局長的答覆，請在其他場合跟進。
Mr LEUNG if you are dissatisfied with the Secretarys reply please follow up the matter on other occasions
政府似乎束手無策，至今仍然未有能令社會恢復平靜的實質建議。
the Government seems rather helpless; and to date there is still not any specific proposals that can restore peace in society
局長在主體答覆中提到，施政報告已經提出多項措施增加房屋及土地供應，政府似乎打算引用土地及房屋政策來解決現有的政治問題，包括放寬按揭成數，甚至引用《收回土地條例》，強行徵收新界的棕地、私人土地及寮屋區。
The Secretary mentioned in the main reply that the Chief Executive has just proposed a number of measures in the Policy Address to increase housing and land supply . It seems that the Government plans to use land and housing policies to resolve the present political issues . These measures include relaxing the loan - to - value ratio invoking the Lands Resumption Ordinance to mandatorily resume brownfield sites private land and squatter areas
我想問局長，政府如何確保在收地過程中，不會再引發一場官民對立的撕裂局面？
May I ask the Secretaries How will the Government ensure that the land resumption process will not trigger another strong division between the Government and the people?
政府有何措施保障棕地成千上萬作業者的生計？當局打算如何規劃重置棕地作業？
What measures does the Government have to protect the livelihood of tens of thousands of brownfield site operators?
主席，塞車是一個全球政府均要面對及解決的問題。
President traffic congestion is a problem to be faced and solved by governments all over the world
當談到塞車時，通常會提到經濟損失，因為在塞車過程中浪費的時間，通常可轉化為一個數值，得知我們因為塞車而損失的經濟效益。
When talking about traffic jams we usually mention economic losses because the time wasted in the traffic jam can usually be converted into a numerical value for us to know the economic benefits thus lost
同時，亦有一些數據顯示，由於塞車而令路面的排放量增加。
At the same time some data show that road emissions have increased due to traffic congestion
另外，哥倫比亞的波哥大、秘魯的利馬，這些城市都在十大之列，但這與香港無關。
Bogota in Colombia and Lima in Peru are also among the top ten but they have nothing to do with Hong Kong
每次與政府討論解決路面擠塞的問題時，當局只會說多使用集體運輸，多使用港鐵。
Every time when we discuss with the Government about solving the problem of road congestion it will only say that more mass transport and railways should be used
問題是，港鐵是否十全十美呢？
The question is whether MTRCL is perfect
當然，港鐵的成績有目共睹，發生意外的指數也算低公道一點說，今早有同事也提到如果與歐美的鐵路相比，香港的港鐵一點也不差。
Of course its performance is obvious to all and the index of accidents is considered low . To be fair as a colleague also mentioned it this morning MTRCL in Hong Kong is not bad at all if compared with their European and American counterparts
然而，大家如何看"沙甸魚"的問題？
However what about the sardine problem?
不過，不同地方有不同演繹，有些地方認為1平方米可站6人，但不知是否要面貼面。
However there are different interpretations in different places . Some think that six people can be allowed to stand in 1 sq m but I do not know whether they need to have their faces touching one another or not
此外，南京亦做過一項研究，就是假設所有乘客不攜帶任何物品，一個車廂可以擠進多少人，結果是1平方米可站大約6.8人。
A study conducted in Nanjing has researched on the number of people that can be packed in a carriage but it assumes that all passengers do not carry any large items
此外，當局又不夠大刀闊斧。
In addition the authorities are not bold enough
因此，在鐵路服務未改變以前，其實是很難改變私家車使用路面的狀況。
Therefore before the railway service is changed it is actually difficult to change the condition that private cars take up the roads
此外，談到鐵路，作為港島區立法會議員，我一定要"追數"，就是南港島綫，即與華富邨有關的鐵路線。
Speaking of railways as a Member of the Legislative Council of Hong Kong Island I must chase the debt about the South Island Line West that is the railway line related to Wah Fu Estate
大家也知道，現時香港仔隧道在繁忙時間仍然塞車，如果在沒有預先安排配套的情況下，先建成屋邨，而未有鐵路，只叫市民等待，我相信很多街坊都會鼓噪。
The population of the whole district will be doubled . Everyone knows that the Aberdeen Tunnel is still congested during peak hours . If new housing estates are built first without prearranged supporting facilities and railway service and the public are only be asked to wait I believe many residents there will clamour
因此，就這兩條鐵路線，我們希望政府能夠加快處理。
Therefore we hope that the Government can expedite the handling of these two railway lines
我還有很多事情想說，但陸議員的議題實在太闊，我主要說這兩項。
I still have a lot of things to say but the subject of Mr LUKs motion is really too broad . I have talked mainly on these two items
事實上，香港人面對最大的難題，特別是繁忙時間出行，就是乘坐交通工具的確很艱難。
In fact the biggest problem faced by Hong Kong people especially during peak hours is that it is really difficult to commute by various means of transport
特別在現時疫情之下，大家也有點擔心，越多人乘車就越擔心。
Under the pandemic at present in particular everyone is a little worried . The more people they ride with the more worried they are
因此，交通擠塞會令整個城市的人浪費時間和生命，亦會令到整個城市的人躁動不安。
Therefore in addition to wasting the time and life of all citizens in the city traffic congestion causes unrest among them too
主席，交通擠塞對社會和諧有影響，所以我希望局長在這方面聆聽議員的意見，盡快改善目前的交通狀況。
President as traffic congestion has an impact on social harmony I hope that the Secretary will listen to Members opinions in this regard and improve the current traffic situation as soon as possible
現時本港的公共交通工具主要是鐵路，陸頌雄議員昨天已經提出"鐵路為主"的公共運輸政策是否最好的疑問。
At present the essential means of public transport in Hong Kong are railways . Mr LUK Chung - hung raised the issue yesterday querying whether the public transport policy of according priority to railway is the best
不過，這項政策能否做到萬無一失？
But can this policy be foolproof?
我希望局長在這方面要大力改善，盡快實現政府的承諾，完善整個交通網絡，令市民出行更為方便。
I hope that the Secretary will make vigorous improvements in this area to honour the Governments promises as soon as possible to improve the entire transport network for the public to commute more easily
大家也知道，市民站在開放式的月台原來也無法很快登車，要等候一兩個班次才可以登車。
Everyone knows that citizens cannot board the train soon when standing on an open platform . They have to wait for a couple of trains before they can board one
我想談論的另一點是港鐵的輔助巴士服務。
Another point I want to talk about is the auxiliary bus service of the MTR
要改善這些情況，可以怎樣做？
What can be done to improve the situation?
如果長期把太多人口擠在一個地方，例如元朗和屯門將增加40萬人口，怎樣也無法解決目前的交通情況，因為交通工具和道路也無法再增加了。
If too many people are squeezed at one place for a long time such as Yuen Long and Tuen Mun where the population will increase by 400 000 the current traffic situation can never be solved because the means of transport and roads cannot be increased
所以，我認為規劃是當局重中之重的考慮，應該與發展局商討一下。
Therefore I think planning is the most important consideration and we should discuss it with the Development Bureau
主席，香港密集的城市布局及高效的公共交通網絡曾經在亞太區領先，但近年香港城市布局變化及設施老化，交通網絡的弊病開始出現，高峰期及繁忙路段交通擠塞的情況是我們目前面對的主要問題。
President Hong Kongs dense urban configuration and efficient public transport network used to lead the Asia - Pacific region . In recent years however Hong Kongs urban layout has changed and the facilities are ageing . The shortcomings of the transport network are emerging
