就此，政府可否告知本會：一會否立法把某些法定組織的職能，移交給成員由市民選出的組織，讓市民有更多機會參與公共事務； 二鑒於有評論指出，法定組織的運作資源主要由政府提供，加上大部分成員由政府委任，獨立性容易受質疑，政府會如何改善這情況；及三如何避免法定組織在履行法定職能時再度引發社會爭議？
In this connection will the Government inform this Council 1 whether it will enact legislation to transfer the functions of certain statutory bodies to those bodies with their members elected by members of the public so that members of the public will have more opportunities to participate in public affairs; 2 as there are comments that given the resources for operating the statutory bodies being mainly provided by the Government coupled with the fact that a majority of their members are appointed by the Government the independency of these statutory bodies is prone to be questioned how the Government will improve this situation; and 3 of the ways to avoid controversies being caused in society again by statutory bodies when they discharge their statutory functions?
代理主席，就鄭松泰議員的質詢，我現綜合答覆如下： 諮詢及法定組織是公共行政重要的一環，在協助政府諮詢持份者、制訂政策方針和執行法定職能方面發揮重要作用。個別諮詢及法定組織的成立、組成及實際運作，均由相關政策局及部門負責。現時，全港大約有500個諮詢及法定組織，當中法定組織佔270個。
Deputy President my consolidated reply to Dr CHENG Chung - tais question is as follows As a key component in public administration advisory and statutory bodies ASBs play an important role of helping the Government in the consultation with stakeholders formulation of policy objectives and performance of statutory functions
我的質詢只希望問一個問題。
My question only seeks to ask one thing
本屆和上屆區議會選舉已經全面直選。
The DC elections of the current term and the last one were full direct elections
一直以來，一些社會科學研究也指出，香港的公共行政是以行政吸納政治，這是緩和社會矛盾的方法之一。
All along it has been pointed out in social science studies that public administration in Hong Kong employs administrative absorption of politics which is one of the ways to alleviate social conflicts
既然區議會已經全面直選，在這樣的情況下，為何政府不考慮把現任區議員納入建制範圍，以緩和社會矛盾，反而明顯地採用"立場先行"的做法，與區議員作出政治分割甚至鬥爭呢？
Given that DCs have already implemented full direct elections why does the Government not give consideration to incorporating incumbent DC members into the establishment to alleviate social conflicts but chooses to obviously put its stance above everything else and politically sever ties and even struggle with DC members?
為了香港的福祉，我想問局方有否考慮可以在區議會層面做些甚麼，把區議員納入諮詢架構或法定組織？
For the well - being of Hong Kong I wish to ask whether the Bureau has considered what can be done at the DC level to incorporate DC members into the advisory framework or statutory bodies
代理主席，區議會有其職能，而我剛才在開場發言中也特別提到，根據《區議會條例》第61條，區議會的職能包括就相關地方的指定事務向政府提供意見，以及善用有關的地區撥款。
Deputy President DCs have their own functions . As highlighted in my opening remarks just now according to section 61 of DCO Cap . 547 the functions of DCs include advising the Government on specific local affairs and making proper use of the relevant funding for the districts
代理主席或許也有留意到，區議會在過去數月召開了不少會議，討論了很多關於地區的議題和項目。
The Deputy President may also have noted that over the past few months DCs have held quite a number of meetings to discuss numerous issues and items concerning the districts
因此，如果區議會能夠根據《區議會條例》，好好地發揮其角色，討論地區民生議題，其實是可以有效地履行其職能的。
Hence if DCs can properly play their roles under DCO and deliberate over livelihood issues in the districts they can in fact perform their duties effectively
代理主席，不少法定組織均獨立運作，不過，獨立運作不代表一帆風順，亦不代表政府可以無後顧之憂。
Deputy President many statutory bodies operate independently . However independent operation does not mean plain sailing . Neither does it mean that the Government will have nothing to worry about
以最近考評局在香港中學文憑試出錯試題為例，此事牽起很大爭議，教育局事後積極介入，但大錯已經鑄成，補救的方式亦衍生了其他問題。
Let me cite the recent incident of HKEAA setting a wrong question in the Hong Kong Diploma of Secondary Education Examination HKDSE as an example . This incident has aroused great controversy . The Education Bureau actively intervened afterwards but a gross mistake had already been made and the remedies also gave rise to other problems
我想問局長，當一些法定組織的運作出現問題，甚至未能履行其法定職能的時候，政府有何政策可以預先監督、介入、及時糾正，以免再次出錯？
May I ask the Secretary when a statutory body encounters a problem in its operation and even fails to perform its statutory functions what policy does the Government have in place to facilitate advance supervision intervention and timely rectification to prevent the occurrence of any more mistakes?
當然，他們亦有要求考評局取消有關試題，以及作出一些適當調整，以維持今次歷史科考試的信度和效度，確保所有學生均獲得公平的對待。
Certainly they have also requested HKEAA to invalidate the examination question concerned and make appropriate adjustments to safeguard the reliability and validity of the History examination in this event thereby ensuring that all candidates are fairly treated
雖然考評局獲授權規劃及評核文憑試，但鑒於今次事件引起了社會關注，我知道教育局會檢討現行機制，以充分體現教育局現時在文憑試方面的監管角色，長遠確保考試及試題的質素。
Although HKEAA is authorized to plan and assess HKDSE since this incident has aroused public concern I know the Education Bureau will review the existing mechanism so as to fulfil its role of monitoring the conduct of HKDSE with a view to ensuring the sustained quality of the examination and question papers
代理主席，關於議員剛才的補充質詢，我們知道教育局會就其未來的工作再檢視本身的角色，看看如何長遠確保質素能維持在良好狀況。
Deputy President regarding the supplementary question raised by the Member just now we know the Education Bureau will review its role in its future work and see how the good quality can be maintained in the long term
代理主席，鄭松泰議員問及法定組織，他在主體質詢中第一個提到的機構就是考評局。
Deputy President Dr CHENG Chung - tai asked about statutory bodies and the first one mentioned in his main question is HKEAA
考評局在財政上完全自負盈虧，不受政府資助。
Financially HKEAA is completely self - financing without receiving any government subsidies . Given the drop in the number of students and reduction in the number of examination subjects HKEAA has repeatedly applied to the Legislative Council for funds owing to its income falling short of expenditure
由於學生人數下降及考試科目減少，考評局已多次因入不敷支而要向立法會申請撥款，但同時考評局又曾向自己的職員發放花紅，而且亦多次被懷疑泄漏試題，最近就有一名補習天王蕭源因涉及串謀考評局人員泄露試題，被裁定串謀公職人員行為失當罪成，判刑10多個月。
At the same time however HKEAA has issued bonuses to its staff . Moreover leakage of examination questions has been suspected a number of times . Recently Weslie SIAO a tutor king involved in conspiring with officers of HKEAA to leak examination questions was convicted of conspiracy to misconduct in public office and sentenced to imprisonment of more than 10 months
就此，這些法定組織又該如何問責呢？
In this connection how should these statutory bodies be held accountable?
政府是否應該檢討及對其嚴加管理，以免其人員作出非法行為，同時胡亂花費，一方面要求立法會撥款，另一方面又向員工發放花紅呢？
Should the Government not conduct a review and manage them strictly to prevent their officers from committing any illegal acts and at the same time stop them from squandering money requesting funding from the Legislative Council while issuing bonuses to their staff?
代理主席，多謝議員的補充質詢。
Deputy President I thank the Member for her supplementary question
代理主席，法定機構在不同政策範疇中擔當社會與政府之間的橋樑，除了作為諮詢架構外，部分組織亦發揮具體的法定職能，例如在上世紀60年代成立的香港貿易發展局、生產力促進局和出口信用保險局等，在過去數十年為香港工商界的發展作出了很大貢獻。
Deputy President statutory bodies act as a bridge between the community and the Government in different policy areas . Apart from serving as an advisory framework some of them discharge specific statutory functions . For example the Hong Kong Trade Development Council the Hong Kong Productivity Council and the Hong Kong Export Credit Insurance Corporation which were established in 1960s in the last century have made tremendous contributions to the development of the industrial and commercial sectors in Hong Kong over the past decades
不同法定機構有不同的歷史背景和運作需要，受不同條例監管，亦須向各自的諮詢或監管委員會匯報工作情況，而申訴專員公署和審計署亦可就這些機構的表現作出調查及反映意見，所以絕對並非"無皇管"。
Having different historical backgrounds and operational needs different statutory bodies are monitored by different ordinances . They also have to report their work to their respective advisory or regulatory committees while the Office of The Ombudsman and the Audit Commission may conduct investigations and relay their views on the performance of these organizations . Therefore it is absolutely not true that they are totally footloose and fancy - free
可是，大多數法定機構的崗位其實並非受薪，再加上在今時今日的政治環境下，法定機構在協助政府推展政策或提供意見時，往往成為政治磨心，承受強大壓力。
Nevertheless positions in statutory bodies are mostly unpaid . In addition in the current political environment when assisting the Government in the promotion of policies or offering advice statutory bodies are often sandwiched on the political front thus bearing heavy pressure
這些不健康的現象可能會令社會上有心或有能力的人士卻步。
Such unhealthy phenomena may discourage aspiring or competent people in society
我想問政府對這個問題有何看法，以及如何可以鼓勵更多有心人參與呢？
I wish to ask the Governments view on this issue and how it can encourage more aspirants to participate
過去我們也留意到，我們想邀請更多有意服務社會的人士加入時，他們對於參與諮詢架構會有些卻步。
We have also noticed in the past that when we wished to invite more people interested in serving the community to join in they were somewhat hesitant about participating in the advisory framework
我也想與大家分享一些數字。
I would like to share some figures with Members too
所以，我認為未來仍然甚有希望，有很多年青、專業和有心的人士可以加入政府的委員會。
Therefore in my view the future is still full of hopes . There are many young professional and aspiring people who may join the Governments committees
代理主席，葉劉淑儀議員剛才提及考評局的問題，我想澄清一點，她提到考評局人員串通補習天王一事，據我所知，涉案的並非考評局人員，而是臨時主考員或監考員，我認為我要為相關機構說清楚。
I would like to clarify one point . She said that officers of HKEAA conspired with a tutor king . To my knowledge those involved in the case were temporary examiners or invigilators rather than officers of HKEAA
我的補充質詢是關於處理這些法定組織的手法，我們看到教育局今次使用了很粗暴的方式，首先作出譴責，接着派員調查考評局。
My supplementary question is about the way of handling these statutory bodies . As we can see this time the Education Bureau has adopted a brutal approach . It first made a condemnation and then sent officers to investigate HKEAA
在這些法定組織中，有這麼多社會人士獲委任為成員，當中有專業人士，如果政府部門對這些法定組織採取這麼不信任的態度，使用這麼粗暴的方式干預，我想問局長，政府今後會如何看待法定組織？
So many members of the community have been appointed to these statutory bodies . Among them are professionals . If the government departments are so mistrustful of these statutory bodies and intervene in such a brutal manner I wish to ask the Secretary how the Government will treat statutory bodies in future
是否會繼續採取這麼不信任的態度？
Will it continue to hold such a mistrustful attitude?
是否會繼續使用粗暴的方式譴責和調查這些法定組織，令社會人士不敢加入這些法定組織？
Will it continue to adopt such a brutal approach to condemn and investigate these statutory bodies thus causing members of the community to shrink from joining them?
正如我剛才所說，政府有很多不同委員會，而委員會各有其專業性，而委員亦積極參與，令政府能夠在不同的議題上和範疇內發揮職能，例如政策的推動、地區監管及對業界的規管等。
As I said just now there are many different committees in the Government each with their own professionalism . With active participation of the committee members the Government is thus able to perform its functions in different subject matters and areas such as promotion of policies monitoring in the districts and regulation of industries
張華峰議員，請提出你的主體質詢。
Mr Christopher CHEUNG please ask your main question
及後，政府按工務小組委員會要求將造價降低至53億元，可惜經多次溝通後仍未能由委員達成共識，因此政府於2014年1月29日通知工務小組委員會不會把修訂後的撥款建議提交委員會再次討論。
Subsequently the Government reduced the cost to 5.3 billion in response to the request of PWSC . Unfortunately consensus could not be reached among Members after rounds of communications . Hence the Government informed PWSC on 29 January 2014 that it would not submit the revised funding application to PWSC for another discussion
因應立法會的意見、港台的運作需要，以及為確保預留的土地能發揮更佳的經濟效益，政府一直以聯用大樓的方案積極推展新廣播大樓工程。
Having regard to the views of the Legislative Council operational needs of RTHK and the need to ensure that the reserved site would have better economic benefits the Government has been proactively taking forward the construction of the new BH on the basis of a joint - user building
在建築署協助下，港台正和有意參與共用聯用大樓的部門，就各自對設施的要求、項目設計及規劃進行磋商。
With the assistance of the Architectural Services Department RTHK is discussing with departments which are interested in the joint - user building on their respective requirements as well as project design and planning
港台會繼續按照既定機制規劃新廣播大樓的工程項目。
RTHK will continue to take forward the New BH project in accordance with the established mechanism
港台現時使用不同的政府物業作為辦公室及節目製作用途，亦有按運作需要租用其他物業，所涉的開支由現有資源應付。
RTHK currently uses different government properties as offices and for programme production purpose . RTHK also rents other properties subject to its operational needs and the expenditure involved is met by existing resources
與此同時，港台會繼續加強保養和維修的工作，以及採取措施改善現時位於廣播道的大樓設施及工作環境，配合運作需要。
Meanwhile RTHK will continue to step up maintenance and repairs and take measures to improve the facilities and working environment of the buildings located at the Broadcast Drive with a view to coping with operational needs
二 一直以來，位於廣播道79號的教育電視中心屬教育局所管有，供製作學校教育電視節目的用途。
2 The Educational Television Centre ETC at 79 Broadcast Drive has all along been owned by the Education Bureau for the purpose of producing school educational television ETV programmes
自教育電視中心啟用以來，教育局一直有員工在中心內辦公，港台並非唯一的使用部門。
Since the commissioning of ETC Education Bureau staff have all along been working in ETC and RTHK is not the sole user department
在2019-2020財政年度及之前，港台負責為教育局製作學校教育電視節目。
During and before the financial year 2019 - 2020 RTHK was responsible for producing ETV programmes for the Education Bureau
為方便節目製作，教育局與港台因此共用局方的教育電視中心。
To facilitate programme production the Education Bureau has thus shared the use of its ETC with RTHK
隨着教育電視節目的製作模式因應審計署於2018年10月發表的《審計署署長第七十一號報告書》的建議而改變，港台已不需要每年為教育局製作62個教育電視節目，港台負責教育電視節目製作的職位亦已於本財政年度終止。
Following the change in mode of production of ETV programmes in light of the recommendations made in the Director of Audits Report No . 71 published in October 2018 RTHK is no longer required to produce 62 ETV programmes for the Education Bureau every year . RTHK posts responsible for production of ETV programmes have also lapsed in this financial year
教育局會繼續與港台商討遷離安排和時間表，以配合雙方的運作需要。
The Education Bureau will continue to discuss with RTHK on the arrangement and timetable of moving out in order to meet the operational needs of both parties
三 港台預計重置創新中心及教育電視中心的辦公室和製作設施，不會對節目製作造成影響。
3 RTHK expects that the re - provisioning of offices and production facilities at InnoCentre and ETC has no impact on programme production
港台有足夠的資源及設備提供公共廣播服務，履行《香港電台約章》下的公共目的及使命。
RTHK has sufficient resources and equipment for providing public service broadcasting to fulfil the public purposes and mission under the Charter of RTHK
或局長作為港台的上司，會協助港台向楊潤雄局長表達意見，爭取保留現時使用的這個錄影廠，以協助港台完成今年的製作目標？
Or as the supervisor of RTHK will the Secretary assist RTHK in conveying its views to Secretary Kevin YEUNG and striving to retain this studio currently used by it so as to assist RTHK in meeting its output target this year?
主席，首先，港台本身有自己的製作中心和辦事處，主要位於廣播大廈和電視大廈。
President first RTHK has its own production centres and offices which are mainly located at Broadcasting House and Television House
所以，港台方面告訴我，他們有足夠的製作地方進行相關工作。
For this reason RTHK has informed me that they have sufficient production premises to undertake the relevant work
正如我在主體答覆所說，港台與教育局的工作關係停止後，教育局收回原本屬於自己的地方是很合理的事情。
As I said in the main reply when the working relationship between RTHK and the Education Bureau has ceased it is reasonable for the Education Bureau to resume a place that belongs to it
至於具體安排，政府部門之間當然可以協商，我們也樂見不同部門自己協商處理這項工作。
As for the specific arrangement government departments can certainly have negotiations over it and we are also pleased to see various departments engaging in negotiations to deal with this task
最近，政府成立了一個專責小組，檢討港台的管治和管理，但當中沒有廣播處長和職方代表。
Recently the Government has established a dedicated team to review the governance and management of RTHK but the Director of Broadcasting and the staff side representatives are not included therein
政府不如不要再扮檢討，扮民主，而是直接告訴社會，港台不可以批評政府，不可以批評警隊，否則會遭"DQ"，要關閉。
Instead of feigning conducting any review and upholding democracy the Government had better tell the community directly that RTHK should not criticize the Government and the Police Force or else it will be subjected to DQ and shut down
這是否政府對港台的方針呢？
Is this the strategy the Government adopted to deal with RTHK?
原因是港台作為一個政府部門，在過往10年獲得的經常性開支增加了122%，人手增加了45%以上。
The reason is that as a government department RTHK has seen its recurrent expenditure increased by 122 % and its manpower by more than 45 % over the past decade
港台唯一在最近這次的預 算案削減人手，是因為立法會政府帳目委員會接納了《審計署署長第七十一號報告書》後，港台負責教育電視節目製作的職位被刪除。
The only one case of manpower reduction that RTHK experiences under the latest Budget is attributable to the fact that the Public Accounts Committee of the Legislative Council has accepted the Director of Audits Report No . 71 . The RTHK posts responsible for production of ETV programmes are then deleted
其實，機構運作時間越長......我還未提出我的補充質詢其運作、流程和習慣越根深蒂固，要改變十分困難。
In fact the longer an organization operates I have yet to state my supplementary question―the more deep - rooted its operational processes and practices will be and it will be very difficult to make any changes
最近，政府成立檢討港台管治的專責小組，我覺得是好事。
I think it is a good thing that the Government has recently established a dedicated team to review the governance of RTHK
我想請問局長，這個專責小組除了檢討港台的運作外，會否就人手和用地方面一併進行研究及提出建議？
May I ask the Secretary whether the dedicated team will apart from reviewing the operation of RTHK conduct a joint study on its manpower and premises and give some advice?
主席，最近成立的專責小組的工作範圍簡單來說分為3方面。
President the scope of work of the dedicated team established recently can be simply divided into three areas
第一，檢視港台的行政管理，包括財務管制、人力資源管理和採購事宜，對港台作為一般政府部門，進行衡工量值式評估，檢視其能否遵行政府規則和規例。
First to review RTHKs administration including reviewing its financial control human resources management and procurement matters conducting value - for - money assessments on RTHK as an ordinary government department and reviewing whether it complies with government rules and regulations
第三，檢視港台的整體管理制度、工作流程和執行方式，確保港台全面恪守《香港電台約章》。
71 . Third to review RTHKs overall management systems processes and practices to ensure its full compliance with the Charter of Radio Television Hong Kong
我們樂意聽取大家的意見，會與港台一起進行這項工作。
We are willing to listen to Members views and will join hands with RTHK to proceed with this task
港台營運7條電台頻道、5條電視頻道、7個流動應用程式，每年製作數萬小時的電台和電視節目，在資源如此緊絀的情況下仍然做到那麼多工作，可謂自強不息。
RTHK operates seven radio channels five television channels and seven mobile applications and produces tens of thousands of hours of radio and television programmes each year . As it is able to do so much work despite tight resources it has indeed striven to stand on its own feet
港台反而越做越好，越來越多香港人收看。
RTHK has instead fared better as more Hong Kong people watch its programmes
政府在2013年申請撥款興建港台新大樓，至今已經7年多，局長剛才的主體答覆並無提及如何興建聯用大樓，我想問是否要在局長下台後，港台才會有新大樓？
The Government made a funding application for constructing the New BH of RTHK in 2013 and some seven years have passed since then . The Secretarys main reply just now has failed to mention how a joint - user building will be constructed . May I ask whether RTHK will have its New BH only after the Secretary has stepped down?
主席，我剛才在主體答覆已解釋清楚，港台新大樓的計劃由政府在2013年12月18日向立法會提出，但很可惜，該建議在2014年1月3日被工務小組委員會否決。
President as I have clearly explained in the main reply just now a proposal for the construction of the New BH of RTHK was submitted by the Government to the Legislative Council on 18 December 2013 . Regrettably however the proposal was negatived by PWSC on 3 January 2014
之後，政府與委員商量，尋求共識，並接納委員的意見，將預算造價由60億元減至53億元，但很可惜，我們當時的修訂建議亦未能獲得委員的同意。
Subsequently the Government communicated with members for seeking a consensus among them and reduced the estimated cost from 6 billion to 5.3 billion on their advice . Regrettably however our revised proposal then still could not be agreed on by members
因此，我們尊重立法會整體的決定，但我們並無止步於此，仍朝着興建聯用大樓的方向前進。
As such we respected the decision of the Legislative Council as a whole but we have not stopped there . We are still moving toward the direction of constructing a joint - user building
而且，從實際數字來看，我相信一個公共廣播機構每年開支約10億元，有760多個員工，足以應付其營運和完成工作所需。
Moreover as we can see from actual figures I believe that an annual expenditure of some 1 billion and some 760 employees are sufficient for a public service broadcaster to cope with its operation and do its work
當然，港台作為公共廣播機構和政府部門，也要吸納整體社會的意見，希望其工作能夠更進一步，做得更好。
Certainly as a public service broadcaster and government department RTHK must also absorb the views of the community at large . I hope it can make improvements and do its work better
主席，7年時間，摩天大樓也竣工了。
President within seven years a skyscraper could have been completed
局長，你有兩個選擇。
Secretary you have two choices
主席，議員應該很清楚政府有關所有工務工程的程序。
President Members should be aware of the procedure of the Government concerning all public works projects
立法會每星期均舉行工務小組委員會和財務委員會會議，每次政府提交建議均盡力去做。
Meetings of PWSC and the Finance Committee are held every week in the Legislative Council and the Government does its best in following up each proposal submitted
即使港台的新大樓計劃被否決，我們仍朝着這方向去做。
Even if the proposal concerning the New BH of RTHK had been vetoed we are still doing our work in this direction
但是，我亦理解議員或市民大眾對政府的工務工程往往有很多不同的意見，所以我們採取折衷的辦法，即聯合共用大樓的方案。
However I also understand that Members or the general public often have different views regarding the public works projects of the Government . For this reason we have achieved a happy medium by adopting the proposal on a joint - user building
我不希望議員誤認為不能興建新大樓，便等於港台無法運作，因為港台每年除了使用位於廣播道的數座大廈外，亦在其他地點租用地方。
I do not hope that Members will mistakenly believe that if the New BH is not constructed RTHK will be unable to operate . The reason is that apart from using the buildings at Broadcast Drive RTHK also rents premises at other places each year
再者，剛才有議員提到港台的情況是否屋漏兼逢連夜雨，我反而認為，我們每年均因應港台的需要，提供維修保養方面的支出。
In addition regarding a Members reference just now to When it rains it pours in describing the circumstances surrounding RTHK my view is quite to the contrary . Each year we allocate repair and maintenance expenses on the basis of the needs of RTHK
以去年為例，有5,600萬元作維修用途。
In the case of last year for example 56 million were used for maintenance
此外，大樓是工作的地方，最重要的是實用及能夠發揮功能，不能因為大樓使用時間太長而無法發揮功能。
In addition a building is a place where people work and the most important thing is that it should be practical and able to perform its functions . A building cannot be regarded as being unable to perform its functions just because it has been in use for too long
以另一個部門天文台為例，天文台大樓由1883年落成至今，作為一個古蹟仍然可以運作。
In the case of another department the Observatory for example the main building of the Observatory which was constructed in 1883 can still function today despite being a monument
局長，我想了解一下，現時有甚麼部門打算與港台共同使用聯用大樓呢？
Secretary may I know which departments are planning to jointly use a joint - user building with RTHK?
主席，在考慮聯用大樓的時候，我們首先考慮港台本身的需要。
President when it comes to the proposal on a joint - user building we first consider the needs of RTHK itself
港台是一個廣播機構，對於內部的某些設備，不僅有保安上的要求，更有專業上的要求，例如隔音設備、穩定傳送設備等。
As a broadcaster RTHK requires certain equipment not only in terms of security but also from a professional perspective such as soundproof equipment and equipment for stable transmission
至於謝議員所提到的保安問題，我不覺得港台需要的保安安排要凌駕於其他部門之上，但港台當然要有一個安穩及合理的運作環境。
As for the security concern mentioned by Mr TSE I do not think that the security arrangement required by RTHK should override that made for other departments but RTHK certainly needs a stable and reasonable operating environment
工會員工表示，電台或電視台對運營地方的需求與普通部門對辦公室的需求非常不同。
Members of its staff union have said the demand of a radio or television station for operating premises is very different from that of an ordinary department for office premises
我不知道局長近期有否去過港台，如果有，他應該看到那些組裝箱、貨櫃箱多到不得了，連停車場的位置也佔用，情況極之不理想。
I wonder whether the Secretary has visited RTHK recently . If he has he should have observed that there are so many storage boxes and containers that even space of the car park is occupied . The situation is extremely undesirable
我想問，局長會否與這些員工溝通一下呢？
May I ask the Secretary whether he will communicate with these staff members?
反正政府也成立了一個專責小組就其全面管治進行檢討，何不繞過港台的最高管理層，直接向員工查詢？
Since the Government has established a dedicated team to review its overall governance why does not the Secretary bypass the top management of RTHK and consult its staff directly?
對於港台有關辦公室或製作設施的需求，我們一直都清楚知道，否則我們不能夠提交用途分配表。
Regarding the demand of RTHK for offices or production facilities we have all along been clearly aware of it otherwise we would not have been able to present a schedule of accommodation
港台在日常運作中，如果對設施或辦公室有需要，政府會按現有機制處理。
Regarding the demand of RTHK for facilities or offices in its daily operation the Government will deal with it under the existing mechanism
港台的6個不同的營運地點，有些設有辦公室，有些設有製作設施，這都是按需要而設。
RTHK has set up offices or production facilities at its six operating locations as needed
