First question. 5602 LEGISLATIVE COUNCIL ─ 30 April 2003 Measures to Combat Atypical Pneumonia 1. MR MICHAEL MAK (in Cantonese): Madam President, on 12th of this month, the Chief Executive met the President of the State in Shenzhen. During the meeting, the Chief Executive reported on the development of atypical pneumonia in Hong Kong and the series of measures taken by the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region (SAR) Government to combat the disease, and said that the SAR Government would strengthen the co-operation and exchanges with Guangdong Province in this respect. The President pledged full support of the Central Government should the SAR require the help of the Mainland, for example, in acquiring medical supplies and protective gears. In this connection, will the Government inform this Council: (a) whether the issue of setting up a notification mechanism on serious diseases between the Governments of SAR and Guangdong Province was raised during the meeting; if so, of the details and progress of the notification mechanism; of the consensus reached between the two Governments on the prevention and treatment of atypical pneumonia, and whether they will consider formulating common preventive and treatment measures to combat the disease; (b) whether, in consideration of the facilities and equipment of the SAR Government at present, it has assessed the need to receive material assistance from the Central Government; if it has, of the assessment results; if it has not, of the measures taken and the additional facilities or equipment provided to reduce the risks of infection on front-line health care personnel; and (c) whether it is aware of the amount of money spent by the Hospital Authority (HA) since the outbreak of atypical pneumonia on purchasing supplies and equipment and employing additional staff to combat the disease; whether the HA has assessed the time and the amount of money required to combat the disease, and whether the Government's creation of a commitment of $200 million for the HA, the Department of Health (DH), the Information Services Department and other bureaux/departments to combat the disease, is sufficient for providing the HA with the amount of money it requires; if it has, of the assessment results; if the HA considers the commitment to be insufficient for providing the amount of money the LEGISLATIVE COUNCIL ─ 30 April 2003 5603 HA requires, whether the HA has plans to seek additional financial support from the Government? SECRETARY FOR HEALTH, WELFARE AND FOOD (in Cantonese): Madam President, (a) On 12 April 2003, the President of the Central People's Government met the Chief Executive of the SAR. Further strengthening of co- operation between Guangdong Province and Hong Kong in the prevention and treatment of infectious atypical pneumonia was discussed at the meeting. The first meeting of the Guangdong Province - Hong Kong Expert Group on Prevention and Treatment of Infectious Atypical Pneumonia was held on 17 and 18 April in Guangzhou. The two sides agreed to further improve the notification mechanism for infectious atypical pneumonia and will pass to each other regularly the latest information on the disease which would include relevant statistics as well as clinical treatment, epidemiological investigations, and progress on pathological study.

  • Policy Recommendation Report
    CULTURE AND HERITAGE COMMISSION Policy Recommendation Report Letter to the Chief Executive 31 March 2003 The Honourable TUNG Chee Hwa Chief Executive of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region Dear Mr. Tung, I am greatly honoured to be appointed Chairman of the Culture and Heritage Commission in April 2000, and to work with the other members in advising the Government on the long-term policies and funding priorities in the development of culture in Hong Kong. Since the first plenary meeting in May 2000, the Commission has altogether held 23 plenary meetings, some 80 working group meetings, four retreats and four study visits. Two series of public consultations were also conducted in early 2001 and late 2002. I hereby submit to you the Policy Recommendation Report of the Culture and Heritage Commission. We have put forward about one hundred recommendations which cover overall policies as well as specific implementation strategies. The premise of the recommendations is Hong Kong's unique cultural identity as being rooted in the Chinese cultural tradition and at the same time embracing a diversity of other cultures. The spirit of this Report is best captured by the principles of the "people-oriented" and "community-driven" approaches. The "people-oriented" approach reflects our emphasis on the holistic development of people. Hence we accord priority to the nurturing of talents, in particular, education in culture and the arts for the youth. Should Hong Kong neglect creative thinking and cultural education, it will lose its competitive edge, let alone become an international cultural metropolis. Also, the experience of other international cultural metropolises serves as a caveat against government's dominant role in cultural development.

    INFORMATION TO USERS This reproduction was made from a copy of a document sent to us for microfilming. While the most advanced tec lino logy has been used to photograph and reproduce this document, the quality of the reproduction is heavily dependent upon the quality of the material submitted. The following explanation of techniques is provided to help clarify markings or notations which may appear on this reproduction. 1. The sign or “target" for pages apparently lacking from the document photographed is “ Missing Pagets)” . If it was possible to obtain the missing pagets) or section, they are spliced into the film along with adjacent pages. This may have necessitated cutting through an image and duplicating adjacent pages to assure complete continuity. 2 . When an image on the film is obliterated with a round black mark, it is an indication of either blurred copy because of movement during exposure, duplicate copy, or copyrighted materials that should not have been filmed. For blurred pages, a good image o f the page can be found in the adjacent frame. If copyrighted materials were deleted, a target note will appear listing the pages in the adjacent frame. 3. When a map, drawing or chart, etc., is part of the material being photographed, a definite method of “sectioning” the material has been followed. It is customary to begin filming at the upper left hand corner o f a large sheet and to continue from left to right in equal sections with small overlaps. If necessary, sectioning is continued again beginning below the first row and continuing on until complete.

    LC Paper No.CB(2)415/12-13(05) For information on 8 January 2013 LegCo Panel on Food Safety and Environmental Hygiene Usage and Promotion of Gardens of Remembrance, Scattering Cremains at Sea and Internet Memorial Service Purpose This paper briefs Members on the usage of the Gardens of Remembrance, scattering cremains at sea and the Internet Memorial Service and sets out the Administration’s efforts in the promotion of these services. Background 2. Owing to the scarcity of land in Hong Kong, the Government has, over the past few decades, actively encouraged cremation as a means of disposal of the bodies of the deceased. The statutory six-year exhumation cycle for coffin burials has been implemented and maintained in all public cemeteries while a 10-year exhumation cycle is being adopted for non-permanent coffin burials in cemeteries managed under the Board of Management of Chinese Permanent Cemeteries (BMCPC). We have also ensured that there are adequate cremation facilities to provide cremation sessions for the public in a timely manner. The above measures have proved effective, and the number and percentage of cremations out of the total number of deaths have risen substantially in the past 36 years from 7 300 and 35% in 1975 to 37 900 and 90% in 2011 respectively. 3. With a growing and aging population, the annual number of deaths is projected to increase from 42 700 in 2010 to 50 300 in 2020. Correspondingly, the number of cremations is expected to increase from 38 000 in 2010 to 47 300 in 2020.
