但是，如果無論建制派或民主派議員均支持我這項修正案，便會成為首項被立法會通過削減開支的修正案，必定成為新聞頭條，亦能向政制及內地事務局、選舉事務處和兩位相關的負責官員發出很大的信息，令他們二人承擔政治責任，而我相信選舉事務處亦不會因此不發薪酬給二人。
However if both pro - establishment and democratic Members unanimously support this amendment of mine it will definitely become a headline . This will then send an important message to the Constitutional and Mainland Affairs Bureau REO and the two responsible officials concerned and make the two officials bear the political responsibilities . And I believe that this will not prompt REO to stop giving emoluments to them
我希望大家這次真的可以打破門戶之見，不要因為是陳志全，而陳志全是"拉布"的，因為是為"拉布"而提出的，便不支持這項修正案。
I hope that Members can set aside their sectarian division this time . Please do not oppose this amendment for the reason that it is proposed by CHAN Chi - chuen a Member who filibusters or thinking that he proposes it for filibustering
今天我聽到不少建制派議員發言，這是好事，我亦聽不到他們就我這項修正案有任何反對意見。
Today I heard many pro - establishment Members speak . This is a good thing . And I did not hear any opposing views when they spoke on it
我想再次說，你可以說我其他修正案，例如削減警察、特首辦開支、癱瘓政府的修正案沒有意思，但我這項針對總選舉事務主任和首席選舉事務主任的修正案，是絕對針對失竊選民資料事件而提出的。
Once again I wish to say that Members can say that my other amendments are meaningless such as the ones on cutting the expenditures of the Police Force and the Office of the Chief Executive and those seeking to immobilize the Government . But this amendment of mine is targeted at the Chief Electoral Officer and Principal Electoral Officer
我亦希望政府盡快根據我們在事務委員會通過的議案，向我們作出圓滿的交代。
I also hope that the Government can expeditiously make a full explanation to us in accordance with the motions passed in the Panel
我謹此陳辭，希望大家支持第174項修正案。
With these remarks I urge Members to support Amendment No . 174
代理主席，我會就"總目151―政府總部：保安局"的預算開支進行討論。
Deputy Chairman I will discuss the estimate of Head 151―Government Secretariat Security Bureau
身為社福界議員，我當然經常為青少年服務，並且與學校社工、外展社工，以及專門提供濫藥服務的同工接觸。
As a Member from the social welfare sector certainly I often serve young people and contact school social workers outreaching social workers as well as fellow workers specialized in providing services related to drug abuse
因此，我特別想討論保安局的校園禁毒工作。
Therefore I have a particular interest in discussing the school anti - drug work carried out by the Security Bureau
保安局其中一項主要綱領是制訂政策和計劃，打擊本港的販毒及吸毒活動。
One of the main programmes of the Security Bureau is to formulate policies and programmes against drug trafficking and drug abuse in the community
保安局的目標非常清晰，旨在防止和撲滅罪行，保障市民 生命財產的安全，以及打擊販毒及吸毒活動。
The Security Bureau has very clear targets which are to prevent and fight crime safeguard life and property and combat drug trafficking and drug abuse
保安局的禁毒工作亦因此變得天經地義，如果有人質疑該局的工作，便會被人扣帽子，甚至提出"有沒有搞錯？
Anti - drug work has thus become an unquestionable duty of the Security Bureau . Anyone questioning the work of the Bureau will be pinned a negative label and even asked questions like what is your problem?
難道社工鼓勵別人吸毒？
Do social workers encourage people to take drugs?
這些批評就像陳志全議員去年對條例草案提出修正案時被扣帽子一樣，被批評削減消防開支。
These criticisms are comparable to those levelled at Mr CHAN Chi - chuen as he was pinned a label for reducing expenses for fire service when he proposed an amendment to the Appropriation Bill last year
這是我與一些外展社工數年前在禁毒常務委員會大力推行社區驗毒計劃時汲取的經驗。
This is the experience some outreaching social workers and I gained in the vigorous implementation of the community drug testing scheme by the Action Committee Against Narcotics a few years ago
我十分認同朱凱廸議員的看法，立法會不應被視為橡皮圖章或提款機，也不應像演樣板戲一樣，行禮如儀或不假思索地通過政府提出的政策。
I very much agree with Mr CHU Hoi - dicks views that the Legislative Council should not be considered a rubber stamp or an automatic teller machine nor should it approve policies proposed by the Government without careful deliberations like a ritual or a predetermined plot in a model play
議會應該提出理據進行辯論，讓不清不楚的細節越辯越明。
The Council should put forward arguments in a debate so that obscure details will become clearer the more they are debated
在4月11日的保安事務委員會上，我仍然看到這種情況。
In the meeting of the Panel on Security on 11 April I still noticed such a situation
禁毒專員當天匯報2016年校園驗毒報告時，建制派議員毫無質疑一致讚好。
On that day the Commissioner for Narcotics gave a report on the results of the school drug testing scheme in 2016 which won doubtless a unanimous applause from the pro - establishment camp
我重申我並非否定禁毒工作的重要性，而是想再重申我希望公帑用得其所。
I reiterate that I do not deny the importance of the anti - drug work; and I wish to reiterate that I hope public funds are put to proper use
平心而論，單憑是否驗到學生吸毒來決定禁毒工作的成效其實不太公平，但當我仔細閱讀報告結果的時候，卻發現有97.1%的學生表示未來兩年不會接觸毒品。
In all fairness it is not at all fair to pass judgment on the effectiveness of anti - drug work solely by the result of whether students were tested to be drug users . But when I read the report results in detail I found that 97.1 % of the students said they would not take drugs in the coming two years
前測和後測的結果一致究竟說明甚麼呢？
What do the identical results of the pre - test and post - test illustrate?
既然如此，為何要進行校園驗毒？
If this is the case why was the school drug testing scheme carried out?
即使不進行驗毒，也有97.1%的學生表示未來兩年不會接觸毒品，而且驗毒結果都是一樣。
Even without drug testing 97.1 % of the students said they would not take drugs in the coming two years and the results of drug testing were the same
整份報告寫得美輪美奐之餘，研究小組也已經建議繼續執行該計劃，並且會提高未參與學校的參與慾。
While the entire report was nicely written the research team also recommended continuation of the scheme and raising the intention of the non - participating schools to participate in the scheme
第一，超過七成家長表示支持及同意驗毒計劃，但只有15%的學生參與簡介會及宣傳活動。
First over 70 % of the parents indicated that they supported and consented to the drug testing scheme but only 15 % of the students had participated in the briefing sessions and promotional activities
當中年青學生的參與度較高，尤其以中一學生最為踴躍，參與度達六成。
Among them younger students showed a higher rate of participation especially Form One students who were the most active with up to 60 % of participation
這情況某程度上反映中一家長只是盲目支持計劃，而且中一學生自主能力較低，在"重控制不重人權"的制度下，便成為參與或被迫參與最多的級別。
It to a certain degree reflects that parents of Form One students blindly supported the scheme . While Form One students are less autonomous under the system of emphasizing control over human rights they have become the form with the most participation or forced participation
由於家長不能像政府部門或立法會議員仔細閱讀有關文件，政府官員更不應玩弄數字，誤導公眾。
As parents cannot read the relevant documents in detail like government departments or Legislative Council Members government officials should not play tricks with the figures to mislead the public
第二，2015年首次吸毒的平均年齡為18歲，2016年首次吸毒的平均年齡為19歲......
Second the average age of first abuse in 2015 was 18 and that in 2016 was 19
我提醒委員，這一節的辯論應圍繞修正案建議削減撥款的服務的政策。
I remind Members that this debate should be on the policies of the services the funding for which the amendments propose to reduce
謝謝代理主席，我快要說到削減2,000萬元的建議，我也會作出討論。
Thank you Deputy Chairman . I am about to talk about the proposal for reducing 20 million and I will also have a discussion about it
我剛才提到2016年平均首次吸毒年齡是19歲，但之前也提過最踴躍參與驗毒計劃的學生為中一學生，即12歲、13歲或14歲的學生，而且97.1%的學生表示未來兩年不會接觸毒品，凡此種種是否顯示計劃根本沒有對準對象？
Just now I mentioned the average age of first abuse in 2016 was 19 . But I have also mentioned earlier that the most active participants in the drug testing scheme were Form One students meaning students aged 12 13 or 14 and 97.1 % of the students said they would not take drugs in the coming two years . Do all these facts suggest that the scheme was not directed at the correct targets?
校園驗毒計劃旨在提升學生的抗毒能力，而評估目標主要針對自我認同、認識毒品的相關知識及認識毒品的風險。
The school drug testing scheme seeks to enhance students ability to resist drugs and the assessment objectives mainly focus on self - identification gaining relevant knowledge of drugs and understanding the risks of drugs
他認為基於這項計劃的設計，驗到吸毒個案的可能性根本是"零"。
He thought that given the design of the scheme the possibility of identifying drug abuse cases through testing is practically zero
現時有學生濫藥的學校不會參與這個計劃，而參與的都是一些Band 1學生。
Schools currently having student drug abusers will not participate in the scheme and the participants were all Band One students
禁毒處這項2,000萬元的撥款......
The 20 million funding to the Narcotics Division
我認為這項撥款太多，因而造成浪費。
I think the sum of this funding item is too large resulting in waste
雖然相對其他以億元計的撥款而言，這項計劃涉及的款額較小，但見微知著，其背後"假戲真做"的犬儒心態值得關注。
Compared to other funding items to the tune of tens of million dollars this scheme involves a smaller sum . However a minute clue reveals the big picture . It is the underlying cynical mentality of taking the roles in a show too seriously that calls for our attention
我不想這項政策只具象徵性，讓大家繼續假扮關心、假扮驗毒、假扮有成績、假扮已經盡了力。
I do not wish it to become just a symbolic policy under which we can continue to pretend to care pretend to do drug testing pretend to have achieved results and pretend to have exerted our best
對於梁議員建議削減該分目全年預算開支5,061,000元的修正案，我持不同意見。
I disagree to Mr LEUNGs Amendment which proposes to reduce the total annual estimated expenditure of 5,061,000 for this subhead
主席，合約最後一句寫道："如本公司對承包人不滿意，可即時終止合約，無須作出賠償。
Chairman the last sentence of the contract reads The Company shall terminate the contract immediately in case of dissatisfaction with the Contractor . No compensation shall be paid
雙方在此聲明，本公司與承包人不存在僱主與僱員的關係。
Both Parties hereby declare that the Company and the Contractor are not in an employer - employee relationship
外判商如無法續約，便可遣散員工而無需補償遣散費。
If the contractors concerned fail to secure contract renewal workers will be dismissed without any severance payments
如果梁國雄議員的修正案獲得通過，我恐怕我和張超雄議員直接聘用清潔工的要求會變得遙遙無期。
If Mr LEUNG Kwok - hungs Amendment is passed I am afraid the proposal of Dr Fernando CHEUNG and me on the direct employment of cleaning workers may become a forlorn hope
她說每天工作9小時，但在立法會工作的情況較好，因為可享有1小時用膳時間。
As she told me she works nine hours every day . But working in the Legislative Council is already somewhat better because she can enjoy a meal break of one hour
如果以32.5元最低工資計算，加上勤工獎，她每月有8,600元。
Based on the statutory minimum wage of 32.5 per hour her monthly pay is about 8,600 together with good attendance bonus
但是， 她每月得到的8,600元與她在直接聘用制度下所賺得的12,700元相比，足足少了4,000元。
However her monthly pay of 8,600 is exactly 4,000 less than the monthly salary of 12,700 under the system of direct employment of staff
對弱勢社群及基層工人而言，4,000元是相當重要的。
To the disadvantaged and grass - roots workers the difference of 4,000 is really a significant amount
結果引發社會更撕裂的問題。
As a result he instigated more social split
他這種引起、挑起矛盾、製造對立的方法，看在中央政府的眼中，其實亦是不被接納的。
The way he stirred things up and created confrontation was actually not accepted by the Central Government
如果被接納的話，怎可能不讓他參加今屆的特首選舉呢？
Otherwise how could he be prohibited from running for the election of the next Chief Executive?
梁振英當然對不讓他參選特首而委任他為全國政協副主席一事沾沾自喜，這進一步反映了他的無能及無知。
Of course LEUNG Chun - ying is very happy for being prohibited to run in the election of the next Chief Executive but appointed as the Vice Chairman of the National Committee of the Chinese Peoples Political Consultative Conference . It has just further shown his inability and ignorance
他在這1個多月裏大吹大擂的說香港的未來要建築在大灣區的發展上。
He has bragged and boasted in this month about how the future of Hong Kong should be built upon the development of the Bay Area
如果梁振英真的懂得中國的國情，以及了解中國未來發展所面對的困局的話，他應該清楚知道，大灣區的發展必須利用香港擁有與國際接軌的平台及核心價值，以香港的文明社會、普世價值的方向，帶領大灣區的發展路徑。
If LEUNG Chun - ying really knows the national circumstances of China and understands the difficult situation that China has to face in future development he should be fully aware that Hong Kong should be used in the development of the Bay Area in order to lead the development direction of the Bay Area that is the platform and core value of Hong Kong to align with the international community its civilized society and universal values
中國有不少霧霾城市，而作為全國政治首都的北京，已經面對揮之不去的霧霾問題；上海現時同樣面對過度發展之下所帶來各種城市建設的問題。
Many cities in China are haunted by the problem of smog and the centre of politics and capital of China Beijing is no exception as the problem is impossible to get rid of . Shanghai is also facing all sorts of urban construction problems brought about by excessive development
客觀上，我們身處的南中國還有少許空間及可能性，建設一個宜居的城市。
Objectively we in Southern China still have some room and possibilities for the construction of a liveable city
這裏有兩個很重要的元素是必須緊記的。
We should bear in mind two very crucial factors
第一，不可以過度發展。
First we should avoid excessive development
第二，不可以重蹈北京、上海過度發展之下引起的自然及環保災難的覆轍。
Second we should avoid the mistakes of Beijing and Shanghai which have natural and environmental calamities because of excessive development
然而，更重要的一點是，在全世界的所謂灣區發展的過程裏，均要有一個定位。
Nevertheless one thing is more important . That is there should be a clear positioning in the development process of the so - called bay area development
對於中國來說，這個定位就是需要一個能夠與國際接軌的城市，這正好是"一國兩制"之下的香港能夠起到最重要的作用。
As far as China is concerned the positioning means that it needs a city which can align with the international community . Hong Kong which operates under the one country two systems principle can make full use of its role
但是，以梁振英的伎倆，他完全沒有想過這個問題。
However it has never occurred to LEUNG Chun - ying that he should think about this question due to his low calibre
這足以令到香港成為下一個發展階段裏的重要城市嗎？
Is that sufficient to make Hong Kong the important metropolis in the next development stage?
如果是足夠的話，"一國兩制"的價值又在哪裏？
If so then what is the actual value of the one country two systems principle?
所以，我認為梁振英這種思路完全反映了他的無能，以及只懂得一直面向北京的想法。
For that reason I consider LEUNG Chun - yings train of thought merely reflects his inability and the fact that he only knows to curry favour with Beijings ideas
他甚至未摸清楚中央政府整體布局，國家期望香港應有的地位是甚麼，如何妥善處理香港的內部矛盾問題，以及我們應該從甚麼角度及扮演甚麼角色定位來領導、改善、改變、優化國內城市，特別是大灣區或沿海城市走向國際。
He has not even ascertained the overall disposition of the Central Government and what position China expects Hong Kong to be; how to properly address Hong Kongs internal conflicts; and what perspective should we hold and what role should we play to lead improve change and enrich Mainlands cities to go international in particular those in the Bay Area or coastal area
另一方面，我們看到梁振英在管理香港的過程裏，由於受到很多建制派的不斷支持，他無須深思熟慮政策是否真的造福香港社會的情況下作出的決定及判斷。
On the other hand as far as LEUNG Chun - yings governance of Hong Kong was concerned we can see that as he received continuous support from the establishment camp he cared not about whether or not his policies were well thought through or if they could really benefit Hong Kong when he was making some decisions or judgments
例如當香港社會均認為"一男子"不應拒絕通訊事務管理局的建議，指香港應該可以向香港電視網絡有限公司發出一個新的免費電視牌照，"一男子""一個男子"便決定不作批准。
For example when everyone in society considered that one man should not turn down the recommendation of the Communications Authority that one more domestic free licence should be granted to Hong Kong Television Network Limited HKTVN a single man―one man decided that it should not be granted
此舉所帶來的影響其實非常深遠，一方面影響到香港政府經常強調，香港社會要推展所謂 創意工業裏中一個很重要的客觀元素，就是重新讓電視業能夠有新出路。
It had far - reaching impacts . First it had affected the objective element that the Hong Kong Government has all along been emphasizing in the promotion of its creative industry that is to allow the new way out for Hong Kongs television industry
另一方面，這亦反映了政府對香港社會管治中，往往以政治凌駕一切應該有的客觀經濟定律及社會需要。
Conversely it was also reflected in his governance in Hong Kong that politics would prevail over all objective rules of economy and social needs
對於這種影響深遠的程度，究竟特區政府有否撫心自問，做過任何檢討呢？
With regards to these far - reaching impacts has the SAR Government searched its soul and done any review?
作為看守政府，以這種態度來對待未來的新政府對過往政策的審視的想象，這種做法是否一個合格、稱職的特首應該做的行為呢？
In his capacity as the Chief Executive of a caretaker Government is that what a competent Chief Executive should do and should such attitude be adopted to treat the new Governments evaluation of policies of the previous term of Government?
對於梁振英經常自詡為香港市民謀幸福時，究竟他所做的事情，有哪一部分令香港社會有所改善呢？
As to LEUNG Chun - ying who always brags that he has been working for the well - being of Hong Kong people what actually has he done or which part of his effort has brought improvement to the Hong Kong community?
我們勸誡特區政府，既然香港這個彈丸之地，無辦法解決因全中國及海外熱錢流入所帶來的投資需要，無法處理房地產的問題，那麼政府便應改弦易轍，正視香港人所需，提供市民可承擔的住房。
We have to advise the SAR Government that since this tiny place of ours is unable to address the investment need brings about by the influx of hot money from Mainland and overseas countries and unable to deal with the property issue then the Government should make a drastic change by facing the need of Hong Kong people squarely and supplying them with affordable housing
換言之，政府的責任應該是以興建公營房屋，包括出租公屋、資助房屋、居屋為主，令香港市民能夠"有瓦遮頭"。
In other words the responsibility of the Government is to construct public housing including rental housing subsidized housing and Home Ownership Scheme flats as the backbone so that Hong Kong people can have a place to stay
但是，難道我們所提的意見，就不是意見？
Nevertheless can it be said that our opinions are not opinions at all?
難道我們所指出，應該分開市場處理投資的需求及香港市民的房屋需要，就是錯誤決定和說法？
Can it be said that it is a wrong decision and a wrong argument that the investment need of the market and the housing need of Hong Kong people should be dealt with separately?
但是，政府說來說去都說不可以，說他們也要考慮私人房屋市場的需要。
However what the Government has been talking about is no . It says that the Government still need to consider the need of the private housing market
在座的局長，請問你們買得起嗎？
Secretaries who are present in this Chamber can you afford to buy that?
當然，你們可能有很大的借貸能力。
Of course perhaps your borrowing power is immense
但是，有多少人好像你們有這種收入水平呢？
But how many people can have an income level like yours?
如果是這樣，難道我們整個房屋市場，僅僅是為特區政府的高級官員所設？
If so can it be said that the entire housing market is exclusively designed for senior SAR Government officials?
難道對特區政府來說，我們的房屋市場是要為全香港最高收入的5%市民提供房屋，而對其他95%的市民卻置之不理？讓餘下95%的市民面對沉重的加租、樓價飆升、居無定所的壓力？
Can it be said that as far as the SAR Government is concerned the purpose of our housing market is to provide housing for only 5 % of people with the highest income in Hong Kong while the need of the remaining 95 % of people should be ignored and to let the remaining 95 % of people to face the pressure of hefty rental increase sky - rocketing property prices and no fixed abode?
但是，它卻不是這樣做，它堅持要先易後難，首先要讓一群在當地一直生活的民眾離開自己的居所，來成就4,000個單位；對於餘下的棕地上作業的其他人士，它就說需要時間慢慢考慮如何將這些經濟活動予以補償安排。
Yet it does not do it in that way . It insists on the principle of resolving the simple issues before the difficult ones by requiring some people who have been living on another plot of land to leave their homes first in order to give way for the construction of merely 4 000 flats . As to the people working in the nearby brownfields it just argues that it needs time to consider the compensation arrangement for these economic activities
因此，要分成第二期、第三期及第四期的計劃。
Therefore the development has to be divided into phase 2 phase 3 and phase 4
所謂"先易後難"，說得直接一點，就是欺善怕惡的表現。
The so - called principle of resolving the simple issues before the difficult ones is honestly speaking nothing but a policy of bullies the meek and weak and fears the firm and strong
其實，我們看到特區政府在過去5年，在梁振英的管治下，正好以欺善怕惡作為管治理念。
In fact we have seen that over the past five years the SAR Government under the LEUNG Chun - ying regime has been adopting the policy of bullies the meek and weak and fears the firm and strong as it governance philosophy
善的意思，是指他對於善良的香港市民，肆意踐踏；惡的意思，是指他對於既得利益者，肆意縱容。
The meek and weak means that he arbitrarily infringes on the rights of the meek and weak Hong Kong citizens . The firm and strong means that he has given consent or connivance to people having vested interests
所以，我認為......他完全不值我們向他支薪。
For that reason I consider it totally not worthwhile to pay him all the salaries
主席，我的發言是關於我提出的修正案，將總目142削減1億1,900萬元，大約相當於中央政策組全年的運作開支。
Chairman my speech is about my proposed amendment that seeks to reduce head 142 by 119 million approximately equivalent to the annual operational expenses of the Central Policy Unit CPU
主席，大家都知道，中策組成立於1989年，當時是港英年代。
Chairman as we all know CPU was established in 1989 in the British - Hong Kong era
它的職能其實屬於智囊性質，主要職責是為當時的港督，而於回歸後，則為行政長官、政務司司長和財政司司長，就公共政策和其他政策及政治和社會問題，提供意見及建議。
It actually functions as a think tank in nature . Back then its principal duty was to provide the then Governor of Hong Kong and since the reunification the Chief Executive the Chief Secretary for Administration and the Financial Secretary with advice and recommendations on public policy and other policies as well as political and social issues
但是，近年有關中策組的爭議不斷，其功能和組成以至成效，均遭社會人士詬病。
In recent years however there have been incessant controversies about CPU . Its function composition and effectiveness have been criticized by members of the community
1997年前是中策組的所謂"顧汝德時期"，中策組邀請各方人士擔任全職或非全職顧問時，是有一項標準的，就是希望盡量廣納社會上的不同聲音、不同黨派及不同階層，目的是甚麼？
Before 1997 it was the so - called Goodstadt period of CPU . In inviting various interested parties to serve as its full - time or part - time members CPU adopted a criterion with the aim of extensively absorbing different voices different political parties and groupings and different classes in society
其實並非要擺甚麼政治姿態，而是因為若要發揮其職能，便須收集社會上的不同意見，從而作出準確、全面和如實的分析，向政府提供意見，用以制訂針對有關問題的政策。
What was the purpose? . It was not for making any political gesture . In fact to discharge its function it was necessary to collect different views in society with a view to making accurate comprehensive and truthful analyses and providing the Government with advice which would be used in the formulation of policies pinpointing on the relevant issues
但是，今天我們看到情況變得很差，尤其近數年，我們看到中策組變成建制分贓的場所，非全職顧問主要是"梁粉"或"富二代"的建制派成員。
Today however we see that the situation has worsened gravely . In particular in the last few years we have seen CPU become a venue for the establishment camp to share the spoils . Its part - time members are mainly members of the establishment camp who are LEUNGs fans or the second generation of business tycoons
我們經常聽到有批評指他們開會的心態與回歸前的顧問不同。
We often hear criticisms that their attitude in attending meetings is different from that of those advisers before the reunification
事實上，我們還能有甚麼期望呢？
Actually what expectations can we have?
因為他們並非如我剛才所說的"顧汝德時期"的成員般，有各自的背景或灼見，代表社會各階層或精於某些學術分析；現時的中策組成員基本上均有很強的政治聯繫。
Because they are not like those members in the Goodstadt period mentioned by me just now who had their respective background or insights representing various classes in society or well versed in certain academic analyses . Basically the present members of CPU have very strong political affiliations
其實自梁振英上台以來，在各個諮詢委員會均有這種傾向，把職位委派給自己的"梁粉"，作為一種政治酬庸。
As a matter of fact since LEUNG Chun - ying took office there has been such an inclination in various advisory committees offering appointments to his own LEUNGs fans as a kind of political reward
我覺得最不幸的是，協助政府制訂和推動政策的中策組，作為政府的智囊團，竟淪落到如斯地步，難怪政府的施政處處碰壁，被人批評。
I consider it most regrettable that CPU the Governments think tank which assists the Government in the formulation and promotion of policies has degenerated to such a state . No wonder the Governments administration has run up against the wall and attracted criticisms everywhere
邵善波上任後，更將中策組的職能重新定性，他說中策組應該作為政府的政治打手，而網上的監控工作亦應該由他們進行。
After SHIU Sin - por assumed office he even redefined the function of CPU . He said CPU should act as the Governments political henchman and Internet surveillance should also be conducted by them
他接受媒體訪問時表示，中策組既然是政府的重要宣傳工具，為了鼓動民意，抗衡反對派及反對政府的民意，他揚言中策組要主動出手，操控輿論。
In an interview by the media he brazenly said that since CPU was an important publicity tool of the Government in order to incite public sentiments to counteract the opposition camp and the peoples objections to the Government CPU should take action proactively to control public opinion
他的具體說法是現在他們沒有這樣做，但是他覺得整個政府應這樣做，要令民意受到他們的左右。
Specifically he said that now they have not done so but in his view the whole Government should do that to subject public opinion under their manipulation
主席，立法會前任主席曾鈺成就這點也有些灼見。
Chairman former President of the Legislative Council Jasper TSANG has some remarkable views on this point
我翻看一些資料，讀到前主席曾鈺成的意見，他認為中策組不應該淪為民調機構。
I have read the former Presidents views while checking some information . In his opinion CPU should not degenerate into a polling organization
這是她親口說的，她指中策組的透明度不高，市民對他們的工作欠缺認識，是時候檢討他們的工作。
These are her own words . She remarked that the degree of transparency of CPU was not high and members of the public lacked knowledge of its work . It was time to review its work
連候任特首也這樣說。
Even the Chief Executive - elect made such a comment
過去5年，在梁振英麾下的中策組究竟做過甚麼呢？
What actually has CPU under LEUNG Chun - ying done in the past five years?
