Confirmation of the minutes of the 12th meeting held on 18 January 2002 (LC Paper No. CB(2) 951/01-02) 1. The minutes were confirmed. II. Matters arising Report by the Chairman on her meeting with the Chief Secretary for Administration (CS) 2. Concerning the "Financial Assistance Scheme for Family Members of Those who Sacrifice Their Lives to Save Others", the Chairman said that she had conveyed to CS the views of the Panel on Welfare Services that although members of the Panel were supportive of the Scheme, they considered that the Panel should have been given an opportunity to comment on the scope and details of the Scheme. The Chairman further said that CS had apologised for not having arranged prior consultation. 3. Regarding the provision of papers by the Administration for discussion by Panels and Bills Committees, the Chairman said that she had written to CS to inform him of the decisions of the House Committee. III. Business arising from previous Council meetings (a) Legal Service Division report on bills referred to the House Committee in accordance with Rule 54(4) - 4 - Action Prevention of Child Pornography Bill (LC Paper No. LS 47/01-02) 4. Referring to the paper, the Legal Adviser said that the Prevention of Child Pornography Bill and the Crimes (Amendment) Bill 1999 were introduced into the Legislative Council (LegCo) on 7 July 1999, but lapsed at the end of the first LegCo term on 30 June 2000 before they could be scrutinised by Members. The Legal Adviser further said that the Administration had now combined the two bills into the present Bill in view of their common objective of protection of children against sexual exploitation. He added that the Bill also sought to extend the application of certain sexual offences provisions to acts committed against children outside Hong Kong. 5. The Legal Adviser pointed out that according to the Administration, a public consultation exercise on the Bill was conducted in November 2001 and the majority of comments received generally supported the proposals in the Bill. There were, however, some diverse comments on the coverage and clarity of the definition of "child pornography" and whether artistic merit and genuine family purpose should be defences. The Legal Adviser added that the Panel on Security was briefed on the proposals on 6 December 2001. While members in general supported the principles of the Bill, they had raised a number of concerns on the Bill. 6. The Legal Adviser said that as the Bill involved important policy and legal issues, Members might wish to consider setting up a Bills Committee to examine the Bill. 7. Mr Andrew CHENG said that as the amendments proposed in the Bill were complex, a Bills Committee should be formed to study the Bill in detail. 8. The Chairman proposed that a Bills Committee be formed. Members agreed. The following Members agreed to join : Mr David CHU, Ms Cyd HO, Miss Margaret NG, Mr SIN Chung-kai, Ms Miriam LAU, Mr Andrew CHENG, Mr Henry WU King-cheong, Mr MAK Kwok-fung, Mr WONG Sing-chi, Ms Audrey EU and Mr MA Fung-kwok. 9. The Chairman added that the Bills Committee would be placed on the waiting list until a vacant slot was available. (b) Legal Service Division report on subsidiary legislation gazetted on 18 January 2002 (LC Paper No. LS 51/01-02) 10. The Legal Adviser said that three items of subsidiary legislation were - 5 - Action gazetted on 18 January 2002. 11. Regarding the Chinese Medicine Ordinance (Cap. 549) (Commencement) Notice 2002, the Legal Adviser said that the Notice was to bring into operation the third batch of the provisions of the Chinese Medicine Ordinance. The Legal Adviser further said that the Administration intended to bring into operation later this year the remaining provisions of the Ordinance relating to the licensing of Chinese herbal medicine traders, registration of proprietary Chinese medicines and licensing of their traders. 12. Members did not raise any questions on the three items of subsidiary legislation. 13. The Chairman reminded Members that the deadline for amending the three items of subsidiary legislation was 6 February 2002, or 27 February 2002 if extended by resolution. IV.

    STH's speech at Gala Dinner of the 6th Annual Sino-International Freight Forwarders Conference 2009 (English only) ****************************************************** Following is a speech by the Secretary for Transport and Housing, Ms Eva Cheng, today (June 12) at Gala Dinner of the 6th Annual Sino-International Freight Forwarders Conference 2009: Mr Zhao (Huxiang) [President of CIFA], Mr (David) Yokeum [President of WCA Family], the Honorable Miriam Lau, Mr Willy Lin, distinguished guests, ladies and gentlemen, I am delighted to be here at the Gala Dinner of the 6th Annual Sino-International Freight Forwarders Conference. I am particularly glad that the World Cargo Alliance Family of Logistics Network and the China International Freight Forwarders Association have decided to hold this conference in Hong Kong again. Unparalleled challenges brought by the financial crisis This conference provides a timely opportunity for key industry players to share their experience in bracing for the unprecedented challenges brought about by the global financial crisis. We are all witnessing the far-reaching impact of the crisis on global trade and people’s livelihood. Every industry, including the freight and supply chain sectors without exception, cannot escape from the impact of the crisis. Marked reduction in the transport of raw materials and finished products has led to much less freight activities, and it is estimated that some 1.3 million TEUs or 10% of container ship capacity all over the world is at the moment inactive. We are beginning to see signs that the fall in cargo throughput has narrowed in recent months and hopefully that will become a trend.
