Schedule 2 provides that a DC should be established in each of the 18 districts. Schedule 3 sets out the composition of the 18 DCs. Schedules 1, 2 and 3 are at Annex A. 3. Pursuant to section 18 of the Electoral Affairs Commission Ordinance (Cap. 541), for the second term DC elections to be held in late 2003, the Electoral Affairs Commission (EAC) has to make recommendations on constituency boundaries to be submitted to the Chief Executive on or before 27 November 2002. Before finalising the recommendations, the EAC will conduct a one-month public consultation in September 2002 to solicit public views on its draft proposals. 4. In making its recommendations on District Council Constituencies (DCCs), section 20 of the Electoral Affairs Commission Ordinance provides that the EAC should – - 2 - (a) have regard to the community identities and the preservation of local ties as well as physical features such as size, shape, accessibility and development of the relevant area; (b) ensure that the population in each constituency is as near the population quota as practicable (the population quota, by definition, means the total population of Hong Kong divided by the total number of elected members to be returned in a particular election); and (c) where it is not practicable to comply with the requirement at (b), ensure that the extent of each constituency is such that the population in that constituency does not exceed or fall short of the population quota by more than 25%.

Chapter 3 Is GST an appropriate option to broaden the tax 9 base? Chapter 4 Other options to broaden the tax base 13 Chapter 5 Conclusion 21 Appendix A Motions passed by the 18 District Councils in connection with the consultation on Tax Reform Appendix B Websites of the minutes of meetings held by the 18 District Councils in connection with the consultation on Tax Reform Executive Summary The Government published on 18 July 2006 a Consultation Document entitled “Broadening the Tax Base, Ensuring our Future Prosperity: What’s the Best Option for Hong Kong?” and launched a public consultation exercise for some nine months on how to reform Hong Kong’s tax system for broadening our tax base. The Consultation Document explains in detail the existing problems of Hong Kong’s narrow tax base and the possible challenges that we will face in the future. The purpose of the public consultation is to raise the community’s awareness of our narrow tax base and the problems it brings, and to stimulate public discussion on ways of broadening it. The public consultation ended on 31 March 2007. We received about 2 400 written submissions from the public by e-mail, post, facsimile, etc. during the consultation period. Government representatives attended some 350 meetings and seminars to explain to the public the contents and recommendations of the Consultation Document, and to listen to their views directly on tax reform.

  • Baseline Assessment Report -Sha Tin District
    1 Acknowledgements Our sincere thanks to the Sha Tin District Office, Sha Tin District Council, the older people and Sha Tin residents who provided their time and insight in contributing to this report. 2 Introduction Jockey Club Age-friendly City Project The Hong Kong Jockey Club Charities Trust (“The Trust”) has developed the Elderly Strategy in order to proactively tackle the challenges of an ageing population. The Trust believes that it is necessary to shift towards a more preventative approach by promoting active ageing, focusing on physical and mental wellness, employment and volunteering, as well as social relationships. In 2015, the Trust officially launched the Jockey Club Age-friendly City Project (“JCAFC Project”) in partnership with Hong Kong’s four gerontology research institutes – CUHK Jockey Club Institute of Ageing, Sau Po Centre on Ageing of The University of Hong Kong, Asia-Pacific Institute of Ageing Studies of Lingnan University, and Institute of Active Ageing of The Hong Kong Polytechnic University. With the aim of building Hong Kong into an age-friendly city which can cater for the needs of all ages, the JCAFC Project adopts a bottom-up and district-based approach to addressing the issues of an ageing population. The three key components of the Project include 1) the AgeWatch Index for Hong Kong assessing the social and economic well-being of older people; 2) Comprehensive Support Scheme for Districts which covers baseline assessment on the eight domains of an age-friendly city identified by the World Health Organization, and district-based programmes backed up by professional teams formed by the four gerontology research institutes of local universities; and 3) Publicity and Public Education to raise public awareness on building an age-friendly city.
