如果要避免出現這種情況，平衡課程和課時，課程或須進一步濃縮，屆時哪些題目應教授、哪些題目可以省略，相信又會掀起一番爭論。
To pre - empt such situations and strike a balance between the contents and class hours the curriculum may need to be compressed further . Then I believe there will be a great controversy surrounding which topics to cover and which ones to skip
有關這些問題，我希望局方可以在諮詢時，以客觀的態度，多聽學校、前線老師和其他持份者的意見。
Regarding these issues I hope the Education Bureau can adopt an objective attitude to listen to the views of schools frontline teachers and other stakeholders during the consultation
坊間有輿論希望藉着今次機會實行中史專科專教，以提升教學質素。
Public opinions favour enhancement of quality of teaching through the implementation of specialized teaching for the subject of Chinese History
如果有條件做到，當然是最好不過的，根據教育局的數據，在2016-2017學年，全港只有49%的初中中史科是由主修歷史的教師任教，即使將副修歷史的教師計算在內，也只有65%，部分教師的學科知識甚至只有中三程度。
It certainly is the most desirable course granting the enabling conditions . According to the Education Bureau figures in the 2016 - 2017 school year in Hong Kong only 49 % of the Chinese History classes at the junior secondary level were taught by teachers majoring in history; even counting those minoring in history there was only 65 % . Some teachers only have subject knowledge up to the Form Three level
因此，專科專教只能是一個長遠目標，短期而言，教育局應考慮為兼教老師提供培訓課程，鼓勵進修，並在教材上作出支援，以確保教學質素。
Therefore specialized teaching may well be a long - term goal . In the short run the Education Bureau should consider providing training courses to non - major history teachers to encourage them to pursue further studies and offer support in terms of teaching materials to assure the quality of teaching
另一個不能忽略的，便是如何能夠引起學生對中史的興趣。
Another point not to overlook is how to arouse students interest in Chinese History
只要留意一下教育局的數據，便會發現自新高中學制推行以來，選修中史 的同學越來越少。
One only needs to take note of the Education Bureau data to find out that since the implementation of the New Senior Secondary Academic Structure fewer and fewer students have taken Chinese History
誠然，修讀歷史本身便較為沉悶，加上這科目在初中階段得不到應有的重視，很難引起同學的興趣。
Admittedly it is rather boring to study history coupled with the subject not being accorded its due importance it is difficult to arouse students interest
在有選擇的情況下，他們自然不願意修讀。
Given the choice they naturally do not want to take it
因此，中史成為獨立必修科後，還得探討怎樣的課程才能引起學生的興趣，否則，選修人數會繼續減少，中史科將會進一步被邊緣化，遑論培訓更多主修中史的老師，實現專科專教。
Therefore after making Chinese History an independent and compulsory subject it is still necessary to discuss what kind of curriculum can arouse students interest otherwise with a declining number of students taking the subject Chinese History will be marginalized further not to mention training up more teachers who are Chinese History majors to realize specialized teaching
接下來，我想談談我對50億元新增教育資源的意見。
Next I wish to give my views on the 5 billion new resources for education
特首在上任第一個星期，便宣布會投入更多財政資源，增加經常性撥款，包括向合資格修讀自資學士學位的學生，提供每年3萬元的免入息審查資助，而前往內地升讀學位課程的學生，亦可每年獲得5,000元的資助；改善中小學的班師比例，每班增加0.1名教師，可見新政府對教育的承擔和誠意。
In the first week after assuming office the Chief Executive announced the allocation of more financial resources to increase recurrent funding including the provision of a non - means - tested annual subsidy of 30,000 for eligible students pursuing self - financed undergraduate programmes and also an annual subsidy of 5,000 for students pursuing undergraduate programmes in the Mainland . And the teacher - to - class ratio will be increased by 0.1 teacher per class for primary and secondary schools . These measures demonstrate the new Governments commitment and sincerity with regard to education
然而，上述措施只運用了新撥款中的36億元，而特首在施政報告中，也沒有交代餘下14億元的用途，只是表示會繼續與教育界商討。
However the aforementioned measures will only spend 3.6 billion of the new funding . The Chief Executive has not told us of the use of the remaining 1.4 billion in the Policy Address other than saying that she will continue to discuss with the education sector . As a matter of fact a multitude of problems in education is still awaiting solutions
事實上，有待解決的教育問題尚有很多，例如我們在議會經常也有討論的，就是促請政府增加資助學士學位學額，令符合入學資格的學生不會因學額不足而被拒諸門外；又例如進一步提升班師比例，達至學界共識的每班增加0.3名教師，而不是現時建議的每班增加0.1名教師，讓更多合約教師可以轉為常額編制，確保有穩定的教師團隊，這對教師、對學生同樣有利無害。
For example as often discussed in the Council we have been urging the Government to increase publicly - funded undergraduate places so that students who meet admission requirements will not be turned away due to the shortage of places . Another example is that the teacher - to - class ratio should be further increased by 0.3 teacher per class as agreed by the academic community instead of an additional 0.1 teacher per class as currently proposed so that more contract teachers can be converted to the permanent establishment to ensure a stable teaching team . It will benefit teachers and students alike in every sense
主席，我想提出的另一點，就是施政報告終於回應我提出多年的建議，即如何開放學校閒餘的空間時段，供文化藝術及體育團體使用，這項政策絕對值得支持和大力推廣，包括向學校提供風險管理，例如保險、保安、維護、清潔等支援，並給予一定的經濟誘因，讓學校可以保留全部或大部分的租金收入作其他提升教學的用途，我相信這樣可鼓勵更多學校開放其校舍，緩解現時社會上的龐大需求。
The Policy Address finally answers my proposal which I have been making for a few years that idle school campuses should be opened up for use by arts cultural and sports organizations . This policy is definitely worthy of support and vigorous promotion including provision of assistance in risk management to schools such as insurance security maintenance and cleaning . Certain incentives should also be offered so that schools can retain the full or partial rental income for other purposes of enhancement of teaching
我希望在這方面，民政事務局和教育局可以緊密攜手，妥善落實這項德政。
I believe it will encourage more schools to open up their campuses to alleviate the massive demand in society now . In this respect I hope the Home Affairs Bureau and the Education Bureau can work closely to properly implement this benevolent policy
代理主席，民生問題是個很大的題目，我先從勞工權益方面表達意見。
Peoples livelihood Deputy President is a vast topic so I shall first express my views on labour rights and interests
施政報告對立法保障標準工時隻字不提，但不提並不表示問題不存在。
While the Policy Address made no mention of legislating for protection of standard working hours the problem will not go away simply by omitting it
我在上個環節的辯論已交代對標準工時的看法，這裏不再重複，但即使私人勞動市場還未落實標準工時，特區政府仍可在政府外判服務的標準合約內制訂標準工時，在勞動市場裏牽頭推動標準工時。
In the last debate session I presented my views on standard working hours so I will not make any repetition here . However even though standard working hours has yet to be implemented in the private - sector labour market the Special Administrative Region Government can still take the lead in championing such protection in the labour market by prescribing standard working hours in the standard contract for services outsourced by the Government
我再次建議政府在服務外判合約裏加入標準工時的條款，訂定每周工作44小時，超時工作的工資每小時按工半計算。
Again I propose that the Government should include a term on standard working hours in contracts for outsourced services stipulating a standard workweek of 44 hours with overtime pay calculated at one and a half of the hourly wage rate
勞工界極為關注的另一議題是取消以強制性公積金供款對沖長期服務金及遣散費的安排。
The abolition of the arrangement for long service and severance payments to be offset by the contributions of the Mandatory Provident Fund MPF schemes is another issue that causes grave concern in the labour sector
我們歡迎政府以積極和務實的方式回應民間對取消強積金對沖的意見，勞工界就取消強積金對沖的基本立場是不同意降低遣散費及長期服務金的計算比例。
While we welcome the pro - active and pragmatic manner in which the Government is responding to the public views on the abolition of the MPF offsetting mechanism it is the basic stance of the labour sector in respect of the abolition of the mechanism to oppose the lowering of the ratio according to which the calculation of long service and severance payments are done
施政報告仍未能提出具體方案，我們期望政府提出新方案，切合勞工界的訴求。
We hope the Government while failing to come up with a specific proposal in the Policy Address can put forward new measures that meet the aspirations of the labour sector
代理主席，政府計劃在2018年推出終身年金計劃。
Deputy President the Government plans to introduce a life annuity scheme in 2018
支持全民退休保障的學者早已指出，如果政府在現階段不落實全民退休保障，香港將錯失推行全民退休保障的時機。
As academics in favour of universal retirement protection have pointed out Hong Kong will miss the opportunity of implementing universal retirement protection unless the Government takes actions to do so now
政府推出年金計劃，無疑給長者多一個退休選擇，但這選擇只對較富裕的長者有意義。
The implementation of an annuity scheme by the Government undoubtedly offers elderly persons another retirement option . Yet it is an option that is meaningful only to elderly persons with means
就全民退休保障及有經濟需要的退休保障進行諮詢的整個過程中，政府並沒有強調長者過去數十年為香港經濟付出的青春和汗水。
During the entire process of consultation on universal retirement protection and retirement protection for those in need of financial support the Government failed to highlight the youth and sweat contributed by the elderly to the Hong Kong economy over the past decades
不論貧富，退休保障是長者的權利，亦是社會回饋長者的應有之義。
Not only is retirement protection a right of elderly persons be they rich or poor it is also a responsibility of any self - respecting society to pay back their elders
這計劃不但沒有向最有需要的市民發放津貼，甚至出現濟富不濟貧的情況。
That scheme not only fails to offer any subsidy to the most needy it could even give rise to situations where the rich are subsidized but not the poor
家住愉景灣的中高收入市民上下班乘搭渡輪每程40元，可獲政府的交通津貼；住在舊區的基層市民如果上下班乘搭紅色小巴，卻沒有補貼。
Middle - to - high income earners living in Discovery Bay will receive the government transport subsidy for their ferry ride costing 40 per trip to and from work . Grass - roots residents of old districts on the other hand will not be subsidized if commuting by red public light buses
我不知道特首在討論全民退休保障方案時，按甚麼原則使用公帑。
I have no idea what principle regarding the use of public money the Chief Executive will abide by in the discussion on universal retirement protection
事實上，我所屬的港九勞工社團聯會早在2010年便提出免入息審查的交通津貼。
As a matter of fact the Federation of Hong Kong and Kowloon Labour Unions FLU to which I belong already proposed a non - means - tested transport subsidy as far back as 2010
在2011年11月，當時勞聯立法會議員李鳳英在本會有關就業交通津貼的辯論上提出修正案，要求取消資產審查，代之以申請人的薪酬作為審批標準。
In November 2011 Ms LI Fung - ying a former Member representing FLU at the time proposed an amendment motion during a debate on transport subsidy for workers calling for the replacement of the asset test with vetting and approval based on the salary level of an applicant
我認為與薪酬掛鈎的公共交通費 用補貼計劃，技術上能解決政府方案濟富不濟貧的問題，並更符合政府善用公帑的原則。
A salary - linked public transport subsidy scheme I believe can technically solve the problem of subsidizing the rich but not the poor arising from the government proposal while being better in line with the principle of putting public funds to proper use
有鑒於政府拒絕成立全民退休保障，無論現時的強積金制度，還是2018年推出的年金制度，都忽略了一個對香港經濟作出無償貢獻，卻沒有任何退休保障的階層，那就是家庭照顧者，即大部分家庭主婦。
With the refusal of the Government to introduce universal retirement protection members of a social class who have been contributing for no reward to the economy of Hong Kong will continue to be denied any retirement protection ignored by both the existing MPF System and the annuity scheme to be rolled out in 2018
根據政府統計處的資料，在2015年，全港家庭照顧者達65萬人，其中30%介乎55歲至64歲之間；他們沒有收入，也沒有任何退休保障。
They are family carers meaning most of the housewives . According to the figures of the Census and Statistics Department there were 650 000 family carers in Hong Kong in 2015 30 % of whom being aged between 55 and 64 with neither income nor any form of retirement protection
我支持全民退休保障計劃，退而求其次，勞聯多年前提出建議，以最低工資為起點，由政府為非在職及非全日制學生的勞動人口承擔強積金每月的最低供款，讓社會上不同崗位的人士也得到一定的退休保障。
As a proponent of a universal retirement protection scheme I am prepared to settle for the next best option . Many years ago FLU put forward the proposal for the Government using the minimum wage as a starting point to make the minimum monthly MPF contribution for persons in the workforce who are neither in employment nor engaged in full - time studies thereby offering some degree of retirement protection to people of different positions in society
今年截至10月初，單是建造業已發生14宗致命工業意外，涉及17條人命。
As at early October this year there were 14 fatal industrial accidents in the construction industry alone claiming 17 lives
施政報告提出一系列改善職業安全的措施，當中包括提高罰則，加強法例的阻嚇力，並鼓勵建造業工人舉報不安全的工作情況，讓勞工處得以更針對性地巡查等。
The Policy Address puts forward an array of measures to improve occupational safety which include increasing the penalty to strengthen the deterrent effect of the law as well as encouraging workers to report unsafe conditions in workplaces so as to facilitate more targeted inspections by the Labour Department
我全力支持政府的建議，希望能盡快落實。
I fully support these government initiatives and hope they can be implemented as soon as possible
職業安全的監管主要依賴職業安全主任的巡查。
The oversight of occupational safety relies mainly on inspections made by Occupational Safety Officers
勞工處的2017-2018年度財政預算綱領顯示，處方計劃在2017-2018年度要每名外勤督察平均視察450次。
According to the Labour Departments 2017 - 2018 Estimate for the relevant programmes the Department plans to have each field inspector making 450 inspections on average during the said period
如此編制安排，我相信絕對無法滿足需要，提升工業安全，遑論鼓勵工友舉報不安全的工作情況。
Such staff establishment I believe can in no way meet the needs for enhanced occupational safety let alone encouraging workers to report unsafe conditions in workplaces
我相信勞工處需要重新檢視安全主任的人手編制。
I believe it is necessary for the Labour Department to re - examine the establishment of Occupational Safety Officers
代理主席，行政長官於今年施政報告中提出檢討分娩假，並增加侍產假至5天。
In this years Policy Address Deputy President the Chief Executive proposed to conduct a review on maternity leave and increase paternity leave to five days
分娩假是上世紀1980年代的產物，儘管經過修訂，但已經落後於時代的需要。
Maternity leave is a product of the 1980s that despite some amendments made in the interim is already too outdated to meet the needs of the times
我們建議政府以國際勞工公約建議的14周全薪產假為標準，全面檢討分娩假。
We recommend the Government to conduct a comprehensive review of maternity leave and adopt the standard of 14 weeks of full - pay maternity leave as recommended by the International Labour Conventions
事實上，分娩假與侍產假是二為一體的，施政報告建議增加侍產假至5天，勞聯認為並不足夠，建議7天全薪的侍產假。
As a matter of fact paternity leave and maternity leave are integral to each another . FLU considers it insufficient to raise paternity leave to five days as proposed in the Policy Address so we recommend 7 days of full - pay paternity leave instead
政府更應全面考慮分娩假與侍產假的內在關係，容許分娩假與侍產假合流，讓不同家庭按需要更靈活地照顧嬰孩。
Moreover the Government should consider comprehensively the intrinsic relationship between maternity leave and paternity leave allowing a merger of the two so that different families would have greater flexibility in taking care of their babies according to their needs
除了分娩假與侍產假，我們要求政府盡快統一法定假期及公眾假期。
Apart from maternity leave and paternity leave we call on the Government to align the numbers of statutory holidays and public holidays
按政府統計處的資料，在2011年，近85萬名僱員沒有放取公眾 假期，單是服務行業就有七成僱員只能放取法定假期。
In 2011 there were close to 850 000 employees not entitled to public holidays according to the figures of the Census and Statistics Department . In the service industry alone 70 % of the employees were entitled to statutory holidays only
這種歷史遺留下來並帶有歧視性的假期安排早應取消，勞聯建議畫一假期為17天。
Such a holiday arrangement left over from history and discriminatory in nature should long have been abolished . FLU recommends the alignment of holidays to 17 days
代理主席，行政長官在施政報告中提出安老服務應以居家安老和社區照顧為主，院舍為輔的方針。
In the Policy Address Deputy President the Chief Executive mentioned that elderly services should accord priority to the provision of home care and community care supplemented by residential care
安老政策涉及整個社會的生態，香港的房價連不少中、高收入的市民也難以負擔，居家已不容易，遑論安老？
The elderly care policy has to do with the entire ecology of society . The property prices of Hong Kong are so high that even citizens with middle - to - high - level income can hardly afford them making it difficult for people to live under a secure roof let alone ageing in one
香港是全球最長工時的城市，平均每周工時超過50小時，如何照顧長者？
Hong Kong has the longest working hours in the world with an average workweek of over 50 hours . How do employees of Hong Kong find the time to take care of their elders?
若要做到居家安老為主，院舍為輔，政府不能只是修修補補一些作為輔助的院舍照顧計劃，必須正本清源，解決居住和工時問題。
If priority is to be given to home care with residential care as supplement the Government instead of simply patching up residential care schemes that are supposed to be serving a supplementary role must tackle the problem at root by solving the problems of housing and working hours
事實上，民間一再提出設立租管，勞工界一再要求立法規管工時，政府對這些訴求卻一直置若罔聞。
In fact the Government has long been turning a deaf ear to the communitys suggestion of imposing rent control and the aspiration of legislating on working hours raised repeatedly by the labour sector
如此一來，居家安老不可能真正實現，只會淪為政府遮掩安老服務嚴重不足的藉口。
This being the case home care for the elderly will not truly materialize . Instead it will serve only as a mere excuse for the Government to cover up the acute shortage of elderly services
主席，行政長官林鄭月娥的施政報告裏有不少關於民生的措施，我明白香港的貧富懸殊情況相當嚴重，弱勢社群需要額外支援，我希望政府的相關措施能夠成功順利推行，紓緩弱勢人士、有需要人士的生活所需。
President in the Policy Address presented by Chief Executive Carrie LAM there are quite many measures concerning the peoples livelihood . I understand that given the serious wealth gap in Hong Kong the disadvantaged need additional support . I hope the relevant measures of the Government can be implemented smoothly to alleviate the everyday needs of the disadvantaged and people in need
但其中一點我必須說的是，我難以理解為甚麼政府在這個時候提出要檢討"限奶令"。
However one of the points I must make is that I can hardly understand why the Government proposed a review of the export control of powdered formulae at this juncture
大家都知道，過往中港矛盾的其中一個重要原因是水貨問題。
As we all know one of the important reasons for the past China - Hong Kong conflicts was parallel - goods trading
數年前，尤其是近邊境的北區、屯門、元朗一帶，甚至 荃灣，水貨問題導致中港矛盾非常嚴重，其中搶奶粉的熱潮更導致香港很多地區嚴重缺乏奶粉供應，令很多父母感到非常彷徨。
Several years ago particularly in the North District Tuen Mun and Yuen Long areas near the border and even Tsuen Wan the issue of parallel - goods trading caused severe China - Hong Kong conflicts . Among them panic buying of powdered formulae even led to an acute shortage of powdered formulae causing great anxieties to many parents
"限奶令"是梁振英政府難得的德政。
The export control of powdered formulae was a rare benevolent initiative of the LEUNG Chun - ying Administration
但是，我不明白，既然這措施行之有效，而市民亦很支持，為甚麼政府要檢討？
Yet I do not have a clue . Since this is a proven measure supported by the public why does the Government need to review it?
檢討的潛台詞是否要把它取消？
Does the review imply that it will be abolished?
過去數星期，我們在北區收集了很多市民的簽名，他們都希望繼續維持"限奶令"。
Over the past few weeks we have collected many signatures from members of the public in the North District . They all hope that the export control of powdered formulae will be maintained
第二點，代理主席，是有關弱勢社群的問題。
The second point Deputy President is about the problems of the disadvantaged
很多住在偏遠地區的市民均屬基層，收入不多，尤其是我服務的北區。
Many people living in the remote areas are grass roots making a meagre income especially in the North District served by me
他們面對很多生活困擾，例如租金昂貴，難以負擔，而板間房的環境亦極之惡劣。
They are plagued by numerous difficulties in their daily life such as expensive rentals which they can hardly afford and the terrible environment of cubicle apartments
這些房屋問題，很多同事已反映過，我希望政府有決心、有魄力、有方法去處理香港這項首要民生問題。
These housing problems have already been relayed by many Honourable colleagues . I hope the Government will drum up the determination boldness and come up with methods to deal with this livelihood issue of top priority in Hong Kong
此外，很多住在北區的弱勢市民均面對塞車問題。
Besides many disadvantaged people living in the North District face the problem of traffic congestion
大家也知道，住在新界偏遠地區的市民日常出入市區，一來車資高昂，二來交通時間甚長，嚴重影響他們和家人的生活。
As we all know for people living in the remote areas in the New Territories who usually have to commute to and from the urban areas firstly the fares are high and secondly the travelling time is so long that it seriously affects their living and that of their families
我們尤其看到，以新界東來說，在沙田一帶，繁忙時間必定會塞車；我知道有些路段將會擴闊，希望工程不會延誤。
In particular we have observed for example in New Territories East there will definitely be traffic congestion during the rush hours in Sha Tin . I know that some road sections will be widened . I hope such works will not be delayed
將軍澳的塞車問題同樣嚴重，而北區在繁忙時段更是寸步難行，希望政府考慮到這些地區的塞車問題，盡快開通一些道路接駁偏遠地區，直達市區。
The problem of traffic congestion in Tseung Kwan O is similarly serious . In the North District one can hardly move an inch during the rush hours . I hope the Government will taking into account of the problem of traffic congestion in these districts expeditiously open up some roads to link up the remote areas with the urban areas direct
我認為政府要認真想一想，應否容許私家車繼續大幅增長現在局長在席，我趁此機會提出這個問題始終要面對。
I think the Government should seriously ponder whether it should allow private cars to continue to increase in large numbers―the Secretary is present now . I am taking this opportunity to bring it up―After all this question has to be addressed
是否不斷增加供應配套，例如增加道路，便可以紓緩塞車問題呢？
Can the problem of traffic congestion be relieved simply by continuous increase in the supply of infrastructural facilities such as roads?
加大供應，但需求亦會隨之而增加，會有更多人買車。
Increase in supply will be followed by increase in demand and more people will hence buy vehicles
所以，我希望政府研 究如何限制私家車或電單車等車輛的增長。
Given this I hope the Government will study how to restrict the growth of such vehicles as private cars or motorcycles
我所指的並非作公共用途的巴士、小巴等類別，而是私家車。
I am referring to private cars rather than those types of vehicles used for public purposes such as buses and minibuses
既然市民駕駛私家車，即他們能負擔多一點交通開支。
If someone drives a private car that means he can afford more in transport expenses
整體來說，香港的公共運輸系統成熟而方便。
Generally speaking the public transport system in Hong Kong is mature and convenient
如果市民想有額外的方便而駕駛私家車，他們是否應該付出多一點？
If someone drives a private car for the sake of extra convenience should he not pay more?
我早前已就這些問題向局方的代表提出相關意見。
I have advanced my views on these issues to the representatives of the Bureau earlier
我希望局長認真想一想如何提高的士業界的服務水平，一來是因為本地市民有此訴求，二來亦要維護香港的對外形象，因為很多遊客來到香港後，首先接觸的是入境事務處和海關人員，然後就是的士業界的朋友，如果有害群之馬濫收車資、繞路等，種種惡行會影響香港的整體形象。
I hope the Secretary will seriously ponder how to raise the service standard of the taxi trade because firstly the local people have such a demand and secondly we need to protect Hong Kongs external image . Because upon arrival at Hong Kong many tourists will first come into contact with immigration and customs officers and then members of the taxi trade . If there are black sheep charging excessive fares taking detours etc all such malpractices will tarnish the image of Hong Kong overall
我留意到現有法例的阻嚇力似乎不足。
I have noticed that the deterrent effect of the existing law seems not sufficient
我乘的士的時候，很多的士司機對我說，政府的懲罰並不夠重，如果他們要長時間停牌，便不敢這樣做；若只是罰款了事，他們其後可再欺騙其他遊客，每次騙取一二千元，便可取回罰款的金額。
When I was travelling by taxi many taxi drivers told me that the Governments penalty was not heavy enough . No one would dare act in such a way if their licence would be suspended for a long period . If they were merely fined they could later deceive other tourists and recoup the amount of the fines by obtaining 1,000 or 2,000 deceptively each time
我知道政府正在研究這問題。
I know the Government is studying this problem
局長，在我們現時的個案中，有些分體式冷氣機的散熱器設置在外牆上，無法清潔，如果有零件損壞需要維修，便要花萬多元租一隻吊船、聘用工人及購買保險，就是為了更換一件小零件而已。
in the future are also issues to be addressed . Secretary in some of our present cases the radiators of split - type air conditioners are installed on the external walls and cannot be cleaned . If any part is damaged and needs repairs it will cost some 10,000 to rent a gondola hire workers and take out an insurance policy merely for replacing a small part
有些設計比較好的大廈，其單位的露台或工作平台上會有通道通往那些散熱器的位置，但現在很多大廈也沒有，只是追求所謂美觀。
In some buildings of better design there is access to the locations of those radiators on the balconies or utility platforms in the flats but now there is no such access in many buildings which only go after the so - called beautiful appearances
政府有責任防止這問題繼續惡化。
The Government is duty - bound to prevent this problem from worsening
這問題已陸續浮現，如果我們不加以正視，便會出現越來越多工業意外及樓宇難以維修的情況，希望局長特別留意。
This problem has gradually emerged . If we do not address it squarely more and more industrial accidents and difficulties in building repairs and maintenance will arise . I hope the Secretary will pay particular attention to it
代理主席，說到維修，我順道談談"樓宇更新大行動2.0"。
Speaking of repairs and maintenance Deputy President let me talk about Operation Building Bright 2.0 in passing
我早前已說過，"樓宇更新大行動1.0"在2009年推出，當年造就了很多圍標集團吃"大茶飯"的機會。
As I have said before when Operation Building Bright 1.0 was launched in 2009 it created many opportunities for bid - rigging syndicates to make lucrative gains
