MR TIK CHI-YUEN asked (in Cantonese): Regarding the Government's recent announcement that the Chinese Government will increase the quota of one-way permits to enable some children to settle in the territory, will the Government inform this Council: (a) whether it has taken into account the education needs of these children in formulating education policies; (b) what measures have been put in place to cope with the increased demand for school places; and (c) whether any measures will be formulated to help such children and their parents to settle down in the territory; if so, how much will it cost for implementing these measures and what is the timetable for implementation? SECRETARY FOR EDUCATION AND MANPOWER (in Cantonese): Mr President, (a) The needs arising from the increase in Chinese immigrant children have been taken into account in formulating various aspects of education policies. (b) Based on past statistics on the profile of immigrants from China, the Education Department has fully assessed the capacity of the present system to cope with the revised forecast demand and the need for additional school places. The Government has now earmarked capital expenditure of $208 million for building five new primary HONG KONG LEGISLATIVE COUNCIL — 5 July 1995 5025 schools for completion in 1997-98. It will also conduct a review of longer term requirements in 1996 in the light of more information on new arrivals. In the meantime, any additional demand for school places will be met by existing school vacancies and extra places made available by the decline in secondary school population from 1996. (c) The Education Department has also taken steps to help immigrant children and their parents settle down in Hong Kong. This is done through a special induction programme, school placement services, and school-based remedial teaching and counselling services. In April 1995, with the help of voluntary agencies, a new induction programme was launched by the Education Department to help immigrant children integrate more quickly into the local system. This is being expanded to cater for additional immigrant children arriving under the increased quota from 1 July 1995. The estimated cost for running this programme is $8.3 million per annum, and 10000 new immigrant children are expected to benefit from it every year. For school placement services, District Education Offices will continue to assist in arranging newly arrived immigrant children into schools. In addition, schools have been advised to give special attention to these children, providing them with appropriate remedial teaching and school guidance and counselling services. For parents of the immigrant families, adult orientation courses have been run by non-profit making voluntary agencies with Government subvention since 1981. A sum of $0.27 million has been earmarked in 1995-96 for such courses. On the welfare side, the Hong Kong Branch of the International Social Service, a subvented agency, provides post-migration programmes to help new immigrants from China settle down in Hong Kong. Orientation sessions, language and tutorial classes, and referral services are provided. In 1995-96, $1.17 million was granted to the agency for this purpose. The Social Welfare Department has also secured another premise for the agency to expand its post-migration service in 1996. New immigrants from China who are in need can also use the counselling and family support services provided by the 62 family services centres throughout the territory.

  • Hong Kong's Endgame and the Rule of Law (Ii): the Battle Over "The People" and the Business Community in the Transition to Chinese Rule
    HONG KONG'S ENDGAME AND THE RULE OF LAW (II): THE BATTLE OVER "THE PEOPLE" AND THE BUSINESS COMMUNITY IN THE TRANSITION TO CHINESE RULE JACQUES DELISLE* & KEVIN P. LANE- 1. INTRODUCTION Transitional Hong Kong's endgame formally came to a close with the territory's reversion to Chinese rule on July 1, 1997. How- ever, a legal and institutional order and a "rule of law" for Chi- nese-ruled Hong Kong remain works in progress. They will surely bear the mark of the conflicts that dominated the final years pre- ceding Hong Kong's legal transition from British colony to Chinese Special Administrative Region ("S.A.R."). Those endgame conflicts reflected a struggle among adherents to rival conceptions of a rule of law and a set of laws and institutions that would be adequate and acceptable for Hong Kong. They unfolded in large part through battles over the attitudes and allegiance of "the Hong Kong people" and Hong Kong's business community. Hong Kong's Endgame and the Rule of Law (I): The Struggle over Institutions and Values in the Transition to Chinese Rule ("Endgame I") focused on the first aspect of this story. It examined the political struggle among members of two coherent, but not monolithic, camps, each bound together by a distinct vision of law and sover- t Special Series Reprint: Originally printed in 18 U.

Tang As Hong Kong in 2009 retained its title as the world’s freest economy for the fifteenth consecutive year, radicalism seemed to have gained wider support in local politics at a time of economic turbulence—even though a timetable for universal suffrage has been set. Hong Kong kept its top position in an index of economic freedom developed by the Heritage Foundation, a Washington DC think tank, due to its record of economic openness.

    Appointment of committee and advisers on facilities for West Kowloon C... 第 1 頁，共 3 頁 WKCD-251 Appointment of committee and advisers on facilities for West Kowloon Cultural District ****************************************************** ****** The Government announced today (April 6) the Chief Executive has appointed members to the Consultative Committee and its three Advisory Groups on the Core Arts and Cultural Facilities of the West Kowloon Cultural District. The appointment commenced today (April 6) and will last till the end of 2006. The Chief Secretary for Administration, Mr Rafael Hui, said the main task of the committee was to re-examine and re-confirm if appropriate, the need for the core arts and cultural facilities for the WKCD as defined in the Invitation for Proposals (IFP) issued in September 2003 to meet the aspirations and needs of the local arts and cultural community and attract visitors. The committee would also advise the Chief Executive on the justifications for the core arts and cultural facilities and other types of arts and cultural facilities as appropriate and necessary to be provided at the WKCD and the financial implications for developing and operating these facilities. "The Consultative Committee and its three Advisory Groups comprise members from the arts, cultural, entertainment and tourism sectors," Mr Hui said. "They are mainly professionals or practitioners in relevant fields who would be in the best position to help re-examine the core arts and cultural facilities for the WKCD." The Chief Secretary will chair the Consultative Committee. The three Advisory Groups set up under the Consultative Committee, namely the Performing Arts and Tourism Advisory Group, the Museums Advisory Group and the Financial Matters Advisory Group, will be chaired by the Hon Selina Chow Liang Shuk-yee, the Hon Victor Lo Chung-wing and the Hon Marvin Cheung Kin-tung respectively.

Preface This research paper seeks to continue our work in understanding the Functional Constituencies as an important feature of Hong Kong’s political system. As a result of our extensive research on the subject from 2004, the issues and problems surrounding the election system that generates functional representation in the Hong Kong Legislative Council, the performance of functional legislators, and the impacts they and the election system have on Hong Kong’s development as a whole are becoming clear. The challenge facing Hong Kong today is what to do with the Functional Constituencies as the political system continues to evolve towards universal suffrage. This paper concludes that by developing political parties in Hong Kong the various political and ideological differences would ensure the various interests are still represented in the legislature without recourse to the problematic Functional Constituencies. The conclusion points to the need for work on alternative solutions to the Functional Constituencies.
