In this connection, will the Government inform this Council whether, given its current strong financial position, the Government will allocate fresh funds to implement strategic projects to improve the rural environment, in order to address the aspirations of the residents in the New Territories; if it will, whether it will work with the Heung Yee Kuk and various rural committees in drawing up the specific arrangements for implementing the projects concerned; if it will not allocate funds to implement the projects concerned, of the reasons for that, and the alternative plans to improve the living environment for the residents in the rural areas? Reply: Madam President, The Government attaches great importance to enhance the infrastructure and facilities in the rural areas for improving the living environment there. After the implementation of the Rural Planning and Improvement Strategy, which was launched in the 1990s and concluded in 1999-2000, the Administration continued to plan and carry out improvement works in the rural areas in the New Territories, including a number of major works projects.

Tel: (852) 2893 0213 Fax: (852) 3105 9713 Civic Exchange is a non-profit organisation that helps to improve policy and decision-making through research and analysis. The views expressed in this report are those of the authors and do not necessarily represent the opinions of Civic Exchange. 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.
