我們要豐富產品的種類，除了香港和內地投資者，亦應該面向國際，包括東南亞和歐美投資者，希望世界各地人如果想投資中國，第一時間就來香港，因為這裏甚麼也有，甚麼也可以做得到。
We should enrich the variety of products to engage the world including investors from Southeast Asia Europe and America in addition to Hong Kong and Mainland investors . I hope that if people around the world want to invest in China they will come to Hong Kong in the first place as everything is available and anything can be achieved here
人民幣作為結算貨幣的應用越來越廣，但選擇以人民幣做儲備的外國貨幣卻不太普及，香港又可以在這方面做到甚麼呢？
While RMB has become wider in use as a settlement currency the use of RMB as a reserve currency is not too common . What can Hong Kong do in this respect?
另外，數字人民幣出現，經濟金融模式都會有所轉變，香港又要怎樣去適應，令我們離岸人民幣中心的地位越做越好呢？
Besides given the emergence of digital RMB the economic and financial models will be changed . How can Hong Kong adapt to such changes in order to reinforce its status as an offshore RMB centre?
政府和金管局要主動多作解說，我們有如此好的條件，要讓外界知道，亦要讓市民認識，原來整個社會如何受惠於人民幣業務。
The Government and the Hong Kong Monetary Authority need to take the initiative to explain more . We should make it known to the world that we have such favourable conditions . We should also let the public know how the whole society can actually benefit from RMB business
主席，政府現正進行搬遷鑽石山食水及海水配水庫往岩洞的計劃，並已就將會騰空出來的4公頃用地的未來用途展開可行性研究。
President the Government is currently implementing a plan of relocating Diamond Hill Fresh Water and Salt Water Service Reservoirs to caverns and has commenced a feasibility study on the future uses of the four - hectare site to be vacated
政府在2018年表示，有關用地初步計劃用作房屋及社區設施用途。
The Government indicated in 2018 that the site concerned was preliminarily planned to be used for housing and community facilities purposes
就此，政府可否告知本會：一上述可行性研究的時間表及進展為何；二根據可行性研究的最新結果，在將會騰空出來的用地上提供房屋是否可行；如是，詳情為何，包括可提供多少個公營房屋單位；及三鑒於政府在2019年表示，計劃預留上述用地中若干面積的土地以供重建和擴建黃大仙醫院，現時計劃預留多少面積的土地，以及重建和擴建後的醫院會否設有急症室，以解決黃大仙區急症病人需跨區求診的問題？
In this connection will the Government inform this Council 1 of the timetable for and progress of the aforesaid feasibility study; 2 whether according to the latest outcome of the feasibility study it is feasible to provide housing on the site to be vacated; if so of the details including the number of public housing units that can be provided; and 3 as the Government indicated in 2019 that it had planned to reserve a certain area of land in the aforesaid site for redeveloping and expanding the Wong Tai Sin Hospital of the area of land it currently plans to reserve and whether the Hospital will upon redevelopment and expansion be provided with an accident and emergency AE department so as to resolve the problem of AE patients of the Wong Tai Sin district having to seek medical consultation in other districts?
主席，為滿足香港持續發展的需要，政府的既定政策是以多管齊下的方式開拓土地資源。
President to support the sustainable development of Hong Kong it is the established policy of the Government to adopt a multi - pronged approach to enhance land supply
岩洞是隱藏的土地資源，可為合適的公共或基建設施提供所需空間，支援部分地面設施的遷置，以及減少佔用土地。
Rock caverns are hidden land resources that can offer room to accommodate suitable public or infrastructural facilities and to support the relocation of some above - ground facilities and reduce the amount of land occupied by them
香港山多而陡峭，岩石堅固，沿市區邊緣的山坡很多時候都適合發展岩洞。
The hilly and hard rock terrain of Hong Kong makes it highly suitable for developing rock caverns particularly on the urban fringes
把合適的政府設施搬遷入岩洞，既可以騰出地面土地作房屋或其他社會所需的用途，也可以遷走與毗鄰土地用途不協調的設施，改善城市布局。
The relocation of suitable existing government facilities to caverns can on one hand release above - ground sites for housing and other uses to meet community needs and on the other hand can relocate facilities that are incompatible with the surrounding environment and land uses nearby for improvement of the urban layout
因此，政府正積極探討充分利用發展岩洞為香港開拓土地資源，並以岩洞發展作為長遠的土地供應來源。
Accordingly the Government is actively exploring the use of rock cavern development to expand the land resources of Hong Kong and as a viable source of long - term land supply
政府正積極推展多項搬遷政府設施往岩洞的項目。
The Government is taking forward actively a number of projects for relocating government facilities to caverns
目前，水務署預計在明年就配水庫遷入岩洞工程向財務委員會申請撥款，並在明年下半年至2027年間進行所需工程，最早在2027年下半年可以騰出配水庫現址用地作房屋及其他有利民生的發展。
Currently WSD plans to seek the funding approval for the construction works of the relocation of service reservoirs to caverns from the Finance Committee next year . The construction works are targeted to be carried out from the second half of next year to 2027 and the site of existing service reservoirs can be released in the second half of 2027 the earliest for housing and other uses beneficial to the peoples livelihood
為檢視和規劃騰出用地的具體發展方案，土木工程拓展署在2019年8月展開相關的工程可行性研究。
To study and formulate concrete development plan for the vacated site the Civil Engineering and Development Department CEDD commissioned the relevant feasibility study the Study in August 2019
就柯創盛議員質詢的各部分，經諮詢食物及衞生局後，我答覆如下： 一 就配水庫現址的未來發展，土木工程拓展署的可行性研究正詳細檢視擬建房屋用地的發展方案、單位數目和可提供的社區設施等。
Having consulted the Food and Health Bureau FHB the reply to the various parts of Mr Wilson ORs question is as follows 1 Regarding the future development of the existing site of the service reservoirs CEDD is currently carrying out the Study to formulate the development proposal for the proposed housing site the number of flats and the community facilities to be provided etc
研究將會制訂土地用途詳細建議，包括房屋類型、"政府、機構或社區"設施、休憩用地和基礎設施配套的位置及規模，亦會探討這些方案對附近地區交通帶來的影響，並建議相應的緩解措施。
The Study will formulate detailed land use recommendations including housing types Government Institution or Community GIC facilities open space use and the location and scale of infrastructure facilities . It also examines the traffic impact on the nearby areas caused by these development options and recommends corresponding mitigation measures
可行性研究還包括一些技術評估，例如所需的工地平整、道路建造、供水管道、污水及排水管道和斜坡鞏固工程，以及環境影響評估。
The Study also covers various technical assessments such as the required site formation works road construction works water supply pipeworks sewage and drainage works slope stabilization works and environmental impact assessments
有關研究已進入最後階段，我們預期可以在2021年年底完成。
The Study has now entered the final stage and is expected to be completed by the end of 2021
為讓有關發展工程在配水庫遷入岩洞後可以盡快展開，以盡快增加房屋供應，我們會於水務署進行搬遷配水庫的工程期間，同時進行一系列的前期工作，包括地區諮詢、土地用途改劃程序、進行未來用地上基建設施的詳細設計， 並申請工程撥款。
In order to increase the housing supply as soon as possible we target to commence the development works at the existing site immediately upon the completion of relocating the existing service reservoirs to the caverns . During the period when WSD is carrying out the relocation works we would concurrently undertake a series of preliminary works including local consultation land use rezoning procedures detailed design for the infrastructures on the future site and apply for project funding
我們預期於配水庫現址用地騰出後，可隨即於2027年下半年開展土地平整工程。
We expect the site formation works will commence in the second half of 2027 immediately after the existing site of the service reservoirs is released
二 鑽石山食水及海水配水庫現址佔地約4公頃，毗鄰黃大仙醫院、慈樂邨及竹園北邨，交通便捷，適合房屋發展，以及其他有利民生的用途。
2 Diamond Hill Fresh Water and Salt Water Service Reservoirs covering around four hectares of land is adjacent to the Tung Wah Group of Hospitals Wong Tai Sin Hospital WTSH Tsz Lok Estate and Chuk Yuen North Estate . With good transportation network nearby the released site is suitable for housing development and other facilities beneficial to the community
根據可行性研究的初步結果，在騰空的用地可以提供超過2,500個住宅單位，供超過7,000名市民居住。
According to the preliminary results of the Study more than 2 500 housing flats can be provided at the released site accommodating over 7 000 people
可行性研究會考慮眾多不同的因素，當中包括擬議房屋發展計劃對附近環境、景觀、視覺及交通的影響，以及與附近用地的相容性等。
Various factors will be taken into account in the Study including the impact on the surrounding environment landscape vision and traffic compatibility with nearby area etc
除了容納房屋發展外，部分騰空的用地亦可作重置在現有配水庫上的足球場及其配套設施等，以及提供一些"政府、機構或社區"設施，包括東華三院黃大仙醫院的擴建。
In addition to the housing development part of the released site could be used for reprovisioning the football pitch and its ancillary facilities at the existing site of the service reservoirs and providing some GIC facilities including the expansion of WTSH
三 食衞局表示，為確保能滿足市民的醫療服務需要，醫院管理局會定期檢視其醫療設施的服務量和實際狀況，以規劃重建或擴建現有醫院和興建新醫院。
3 According to FHB in order to ensure that the medical needs of the community are met the Hospital Authority HA regularly reviews the service capacity and physical conditions of its healthcare facilities for planning the redevelopment or expansion of existing hospitals and the development of new hospitals
於1965年成立的東華三院黃大仙醫院是一所療養和復康醫院。
WTSH is a convalescent and rehabilitation hospital established in 1965
該院大部分建築物落成逾50年，狀況欠佳，現有設施未能符合現今的醫療護理標準。
Most of its buildings were constructed over 50 years ago and their physical conditions have deteriorated to an undesirable state . The existing facilities of WTSH also lag behind modern healthcare standards
有見及此，於第二個十年醫院發展計劃下，食衞局計劃待鑽石山食水及海水配水庫遷往岩洞後，使用在配水庫現址的部分用地重建和擴建黃大仙醫院。
In view of this FHB is exploring the feasibility of redeveloping and expanding WTSH under the Second Ten - year Hospital Development Plan by making use of part of the reserved site at the Diamond Hill Fresh Water and Salt Water Service Reservoirs after its relocation to cavern
為配合食衞局及醫管局的上述計劃，根據可行性研究的初步結果，在騰空的用地上有約0.4公頃的土地，可作擴建東華三院黃大仙醫院之用。
To dovetail with FHBs and HAs aforesaid plan based on the preliminary results of the Study about 0.4 hectare of land on the vacated site has been reserved for the expansion of WTSH
據了解，醫管局已根據《九龍中聯網臨床服務計劃》的建議，檢視及評估東華三院黃大仙醫院的長遠發展方向，確定東華三院黃大仙醫院將繼續作為一所延續護理醫院。
It is understood that based on the Clinical Services Plan CSP for the Kowloon Central Cluster HA has evaluated and assessed the long - term development direction of WTSH . According to CSP WTSH will serve as an extended care hospital
黃大仙區的急症服務將會由啟德發展區的新急症醫院提供。
The accident and emergency service in Wong Tai Sin District will be provided by the New Acute Hospital at Kai Tak Development Area
主席，"越住越貴，越住越細"，"上樓難，上車更難"，便是香港的寫照。
President flats are getting pricier and smaller; public housing allocation is hard but first - time home ownership is harder―these are the living realities of Hong Kong
儘管今屆特區政府很努力多管齊下，覓地建屋，以解決現時公共房屋輪候時間長公屋輪候冊的輪候時間即將超過6年。
Even though the current - term Special Administrative Region SAR Government has expended huge multi - pronged efforts to identify land sites for housing development so as to address the issue of long waiting time for public rental housing PRH at present the waiting time of the PRH Waiting List will soon exceed six years
但放在眼前的問題是，發展岩洞，以至配水庫搬遷往岩洞等計劃在2011-2012年度施政報告中已經提到。
But the issue in question is that the plans to develop rock caverns and relocate service reservoirs to caverns etc . have already been mentioned in the 2011 - 2012 Policy Address
事隔10年，今天我才看到鑽石山食水及海水配水庫搬往岩洞。
Only today after a lapse of 10 years do I see that the Diamond Hill Fresh Water and Salt Water Service Reservoirs will be relocated to caverns
這說明，今時今日政府的效率怎能回應社會面對的嚴峻挑戰？
It means that how can the Government respond to the serious challenges faced by society with such efficiency nowadays?
主席，我想說，其實這個社區現時正面對地勢高、路窄車多、人口稠密的問題。
President I want to say that the community is beset with high topography narrow roads with heavy traffic and dense population
以往政府進行發展時，通常會"先入伙，後配套"，例如經常聽到的安達臣道、沙田的水泉澳邨，以及過去觀塘的"三彩"。
In past Government developments the usual practice was moving people in first providing ancillary facilities later . Some examples are the oft - mentioned developments of Anderson Road Shui Chuen O Estate in Sha Tin and the Three Choi Estates in Kwun Tong
主席，我完全聽不到。
President I have not heard anything at all
主席，我希望發展局局長或食衞局副局長回應市民的期盼，即藉發展而令地區有所增值的訴求。
President I hope the Secretary for Development or the Under Secretary for Food and Health will respond to public aspiration namely to add value to the districts through development
我盼望大家也看到，今屆特區政府在這方面已作出大量的努力。
I hope Honourable Members can see that the current - term SAR Government has devoted a lot of efforts to this end
由於現有的鑽石山配水庫設施搬入岩洞內，需待其運作後，我們才能清拆目前的配水庫設施，這大約需時5年。
After the relocation of the existing Diamond Hill service reservoir facilities to caverns they have to become operational before we can demolish the existing service reservoir facilities and it will take about five years
柯議員提到，當有新居民入住，就需要一些配套設施，而很多時候是有關交通方面，這柯議員也有提到。
Mr OR mentioned that the intake of new residents necessitates some ancillary facilities and very often they are related to transport . Mr OR has brought up this point too
我們現時在初步的可行性研究中看到，其實區內有3個路口需要進行改善工程我相信柯議員十分熟悉，我會很快地說分別是黃大仙道雅竹街路口、慈雲山道雲華街路口及蒲崗村道鳳德道路口。
As indicated in the preliminary results of the Study three junctions in the district will need improvement works―I believe Mr OR is very familiar with them and I will quickly enumerate them―the junction of Nga Chuk Street at Wong Tai Sin Road the junction of Wan Wah Street at Tsz Wan Shan Road and the junction of Fung Tak Road at Po Kong Village Road
基本上，我們會在路口附近加設 左轉或右轉的位置、一個專用道，讓未來的道路仍然可以處理額外的交通量。
Basically we will add near the junctions left - turn or right - turn locations and dedicated lanes so that the future roads will be able to accommodate the additional traffic volume
例如，我們會透過鑽石山配水庫項目，為區內提供更多有殷切需求的車位。
To give an example we will provide more much needed parking spaces in the district through the Diamond Hill Service Reservoirs project
我們亦會提供一些設施，包括我們現正檢視的足球場，應能重置。
We will also provide some facilities including the football pitch currently under our review which can possibly be reprovisioned
主席，我們已在完善選舉制度後的一個新時代。
President we are now in a new era after the improvement of the electoral system
其實市民對於政府能夠提升效率、縮減程序能縮減一天便一天，能縮減一年便一年開發土地、建屋，以至改善醫療服務的期望均非常殷切。
In fact the public have very keen expectations that the Government will enhance efficiency compress procedures―one day compressed is one day fewer and one year compressed is one year fewer―develop land and build housing as well as improving healthcare services
我留意到局長剛才也提到，希望議員或公眾也理解本屆政府已做了大量工作，亦很努力。
I notice that the Secretary has also mentioned earlier he hoped Members or the public would understand that the current - term Government has done a lot of work and has worked very hard
我相信作為議員，我們近距離看到局方，知道他們很努力，不過市民要看到成效及政府交出功課。
I believe that as Members we can see the Bureau in action at close range and know they have worked very hard but members of the public need to see the results and that the Government has delivered
在現時這個新環境下，我想問，局長今天給我們答案時有否考慮有否辦法進一步壓縮程序呢？
In the current new environment may I ask the Secretary in giving us a reply today whether he has considered if ways are available to further compress the procedures?
正如柯議員提到，其實局方這個把配水庫搬遷往岩洞的項目在2011-2012年度施政報告已提出，現在局長表示要在2027年下半年才能夠騰出配水庫現址用地作房屋和其他有利民生的發展；接着要到2019年8月才會展開相關工程不是展開相關工程，只是可行性研究而已，也不知道何時才能興建房屋當局是否有因應新形勢，再壓縮程序，檢視時間表，讓市民看到變化呢？
As Mr OR has mentioned the project of relocating the service reservoirs to caverns was already proposed in the 2011 - 2012 Policy Address but the Secretary now said that the site of the service reservoirs could only be released for housing and other uses beneficial to peoples livelihood in the second half of 2027 and the relevant works would not commence until August 2019―not the relevant works but only the feasibility study . It is not known when housing can be constructed . Have the authorities in light of the new situation further compressed the procedures and reviewed the timetable so that the public can see the changes?
如果我們在未來5年時間內做到岩洞空間，也做到新的設施，其實已經是很壓縮的時間表。
We realized that it could not do so . If we can accomplish development of caverns and the new facilities within the next five years it is already a very compressed timetable
但李議員剛才有一個期許，我們回去還可以看看能否再壓縮一點。
However as Ms LEE has just mentioned an expectation we can go back and see if we can compress it further
其實未來污水處理廠只有一層，但我們留意到，因為現時整座山都會用作污水處理廠的搬遷，其實有沒有可能使用"一地多用"的原則，在當中做其他活動，包括娛樂設施、開放參觀或把政府的其他設施搬進岩洞，讓整座山不止服務一種設施？
In fact the future sewage treatment works will only occupy one floor but we notice that the entire hill will be used for the relocation of the sewage treatment works so is it possible to apply the principle of single site multiple uses to allow other activities in the caverns including recreational facilities public visits or relocation of other government facilities to the caverns so that the hill as a whole can accommodate more than one type of facilities?
我們希望可以有多種處理。
We hope that there can be a variety of uses
作為一個概念，在岩洞實施"一地多用"的可能性，我們會看看的。
As a concept we will look into the possibility of implementing single site multiple uses for rock caverns
為容議員提供一個例子，在安達臣道附近，我們也在考慮做岩洞。
To give Ms YUNG an example we are also considering the development of rock caverns in the vicinity of Anderson Road
在那裏，我們眼前起碼看到，除了現時位於九龍灣的一個工務中央試驗所可以搬到該處之外，歷史檔案中心應該也可能可以安置在那裏。
For the time being we at least know that it is possible to in addition to the Public Works Central Laboratory currently located in Kowloon Bay also relocate the Building of Government Records Services Archive Centre there
但是，如果在岩洞做"一地多用"，是有些限制的，其中包括岩洞能夠發展的高度，即使山很大也不可能是無限高，可能要看看很多技術的因素。
However there are some restrictions on applying single site multiple uses to rock caverns including the clearance for development in caverns . However big the mountain is it cannot be infinitely high and many technical factors might have to be considered
然而，容議員說可否在那個地方做一些教育設施，例如讓香港市民特別是小朋友多認識社會對污水處理付出的努力，甚至在環保上都可以做些工夫？
That said Ms YUNG asked whether some educational facilities could be provided in the location to for example allow the people of Hong Kong especially children to learn more about the efforts made by society in terms of sewage treatment and even to do something about environmental protection
主席，善用岩洞空間，搬遷一些現有設施，從而騰出一些土地作其他發展，尤其是提供房屋，我想這方面是沒有問題的。
President I think there is no problem in making good use of cavern space and relocating some existing facilities to release some land for other development especially the provision of housing
不過，局長，用上10多年時間做研究和諮詢，我想大家也不滿意。
However Secretary I think Members are not satisfied with the fact that it has taken more than 10 years to conduct studies and consultation
我想問，因為文件也說這間醫院已落成超過50年，屆時就是60幾年，狀況欠佳。在這段時間，我想問政府就黃大仙醫院現時狀況欠佳會做些甚麼？
I would like to ask as it is stated in the document that the hospital was completed more than 50 years ago which will be more than 60 years by then and is in an undesirable state in the meantime what will the Government do to address the undesirable state of WTSH?
食物及衞生局副局長，請作答。
Under Secretary for Food and Health please
我現在向各位提出的待議議題是：《2021年危險品條例草案》予以三讀並通過。
I now propose the question to you and that is That the Dangerous Goods Bill 2021 be read the Third time and do pass
《2021年危險品條例草案》。
Dangerous Goods Bill 2021
代理主席，今次恢復二讀的《2021年立法會條例草案》的有關內容，早前已於立法會議事廳作詳細辯論和討論。
Deputy President the relevant contents of the Second Reading of the Legislative Council Bill 2021 the Bill the Second Reading of which resumes today have been debated and discussed in detail in the Chamber of this Council earlier
今次修訂法例的目的，正正是要落實我剛才提到，早前在立法會會議及內務委員會會議上通過對《議事規則》作出修訂的建議。
The objective of the legislative amendments is to implement the proposal to amend the Rules of Procedure as I mentioned earlier which was endorsed at the meetings of the Legislative Council and the House Committee some time ago
當時，我和民建聯的成員也支持有關修訂《議事規則》的建議，當然，我們今天也會支持《條例草案》，因為它正正落實了我們當天支持的有關修訂建議。
At that time members of the Democratic Alliance for the Betterment and Progress of Hong Kong DAB and I supported the proposal to amend the Rules of Procedure . Certainly we will also support the Bill today because it has precisely implemented the relevant amendment proposal we supported back then
我想先談第一方面，即對"行為不檢議員"和"缺席議員"施加財政處分。
To begin with I would like to talk about the first aspect that is imposing financial penalties on misbehaved Members and absent Members
當然，在今次修訂中，立法會主席亦擁有酌情權，可在考慮個別個案的相關事實、過往做法、當前情況及海外立法機關的經驗等因素後，決定有關議員缺席是否有合理原因。
Certainly under the present amendment the President of the Legislative Council has the discretion to decide whether the absence of the Member concerned is due to valid reasons taking into consideration the relevant facts of individual cases past practices prevailing circumstances and experience of overseas legislatures etc
就此，有人可能會問，對於今次的修訂議案，我們為何會支持一項制裁自己的《條例草案》呢？
In this connection some people may query why we would support this proposed amendment under the present Bill that sanctions ourselves
其實，正正因為我們需要回應特別是在過去數年社會大眾對立法機關的要求或期望。
In fact it is exactly because we need to respond to the aspirations or expectations of the community on the legislature especially in the past few years
過往擔任議員時，我相信大家經常也會在地區遇到很多市民和街坊朋友，他們會詢問為何在鏡頭下看到那些行為不檢的議員攪亂了議會運作，但他們又像不用承擔任何代價，仍可如常收取薪酬？
During our tenure as Members in the past I believe Members often came across members of the public and residents in the districts asking Why are misbehaved Members disrupting the operation of the legislature as recorded on camera seemingly not required to pay any price but receive their remuneration as usual?
為何議員不出席會議導致流會時仍可繼續享有薪酬和津貼呢？
Why are Members still entitled to remuneration and allowances when meetings are aborted due to their absence?
我相信今屆每位議員於過去一段時間在地區接觸市民時，他們也經常聽到這些問題，市民也經常問我們會如何解決這件事。
I believe that all Members of the current term have come across these frequent queries when they met with the public in the districts over a period in the past and we were often asked by the public how we would deal with this problem
因此，在今次這項《條例草案》中，我們正正要落實我們上次在議會內通過的這項議案，要回應社會上市民一個強烈的期望和訴求。
Therefore in this Bill we are about to implement the resolution passed in this legislature last time to respond to the strong expectation and aspiration of the public in society
這就是說，將來每一位議員都必須在議會內行為檢點，否則，他們被停職的話，他們要付出一定的代價。
That is to say in the future every Member must behave themselves in the legislature otherwise they will have to pay a price when being suspended from office
我們正正要告知社會，我們將來作為議員，必定會盡我們所能履行職務，在立法會出席會議。
We are telling the community that we as Members will do our best to perform our duties and attend the meetings of the Legislative Council in the future
如果我們缺席的話，我們也要在薪酬開支上付出應有的代價。
If we are absent we will also have to pay a price in terms of remuneration
正因如此，今日我和民建聯的各位成員會支持這項可以說是懲罰自己的《條例草案》。
For this reason all members from DAB and I will support this Bill which can be described as a self - imposed punishment today
透過這次修訂，立法會將具有更有效的法律機 制及法定權力，處理我剛才所提及的問題。
Through this amendment the Legislative Council will have a more effective legal mechanism and statutory power to deal with the problems I have just mentioned
我們亦希望在完善選舉制度後，立法機關真的可以做到市民的期望，良政善治，議會恢復理性的討論，行政立法攜心合力改善香港社會。
We also hope that after the electoral system is improved the legislature can really meet the publics expectation of exercising good governance and restoring rational discussion in the legislature so that the executive and the legislature will work together to improve Hong Kong society
另一方面，我剛才也提到今次對第382章的另一修訂，就是在特殊情況下採用視像會議平台舉行立法會會議和其他委員會的會議。
On the other hand I have also mentioned another amendment to Cap . 382 just now which is the use of videoconferencing platform for holding sittings of the Legislative Council and other committees in exceptional circumstances
我相信大家都知道，在過去一段時間，因為冠狀病毒疫情嚴峻，我們在過去兩個會期內的部分立法會會議也需要暫停。
I believe Members are aware that some meetings of the Legislative Council in the past two sessions had to be suspended due to the severe COVID - 19 pandemic situation
雖然立法會通過一項根據《基本法》第七十五條訂立的議案，以引入在疫情期間以虛擬形式舉行委員會會議的程序，但這項安排只適用於立法會的事務委員會及其轄下的小組委員會、法案委員會，以及由內務委員會委任的小組委員會。
Though the Legislative Council has passed a motion under Article 75 of the Basic Law to introduce a procedure for the conduct of committee meetings virtually during the COVID - 19 pandemic the arrangement is only applicable to the Panels of the Legislative Council and their subcommittees
至於其他可說是更重要的會議，好像立法會大會、內務委員會、財務委員會及其轄下小組委員會、議事規則委員會、議員個人利益監察委員會和政府帳目委員會等，這些具有重要職能的會議，按照該規定，則繼續需要以親身出席會議的形式舉行。
Meetings of the Legislative Council the House Committee the Financial Committee and its subcommittees the Committee on Rules of Procedure the Committee on Members Interests and the Public Accounts Committee which serve important functions still require physical attendance according to the above provision
代理主席，《基本法》並沒有明確禁止立法會以虛擬或者遙距的方式進行會議或進行表決。
Deputy President the Basic Law does not expressly prohibit the holding of meetings and voting of the Legislative Council virtually or remotely
