  • Section Iv : Concluding Remarks
    SECTION IV : CONCLUDING REMARKS 1. Stage One of the public consultation programme for the HK2030 Study formally concluded in April 2001, having established a benchmark for future public consultation exercises. We consider that the public consultation programme has secured a sound basis for continuous dialogue with both the general public and stakeholder groups about the many issues raised by the study. The findings of the Stage One consultation process will serve as important input to the study process. 2. We are currently devoting our efforts to the examination of the key study areas and the many ideas/suggestions that have been received in the consultation exercise. 3. In addition to the examination of the key study areas, we are developing evaluation criteria based on the revised planning objectives. The issues identified in the study process and the evaluation criteria will be consolidated and presented for comment during the Stage Two public consultation exercise, which is scheduled to take place towards the end of 2001. 4. We hope this Stage One Public Consultation Report provides a solid foundation for further community discussion and exchange of views regarding the HK2030 Study. In this regard, we intend to organise a briefing for interested parties to explain and elaborate on the various responses provided in this report. Meanwhile, we welcome any further views which can be addressed to: HK2030 Feedback Co-ordinator Planning Department, Strategic Planning Section 16/F.

  • Information Paper
    Extract of the minutes of Meeting between Legislative Council Members and North District Council Members held on 22 February 2001 5 Action - 5 - Compensation and rehousing issues arising from land resumption in North District 32. Mr HAU Kam-lam said that the rehousing issues arising from the land resumption in North District mainly involved two aspects. Firstly, residents affected by the clearance were required to undergo the means and assets test. In this regard, he opined that the Administration should adopt more relaxed criteria in dealing with their resettlement in public housing since they were forced to move away from their places of residence as a result of the land resumption. They did not submit any applications for public housing on their own initiative. Secondly, he considered that local rehousing should be offered to the affected clearees and sufficient schools should be provided in the vicinity for their children. He further commented that the Government lacked comprehensive planning for the land resumption exercise in North District. Very often, it only resumed a portion of a piece of farmland, factory site or commercial premises or the middle part of a lot, thus seriously affecting the original usage of land. The landowners and the occupants concerned were not offered reasonable compensation. He therefore urged LegCo Members to assist the residents of North District in seeking reasonable rehousing and compensation. 33. On the issue of local rehousing, Mr LAU Kong-wah pointed out that, according to the information provided by the Housing Department (HD) to the LegCo Secretariat, eligible residents would be rehoused within the same or adjacent district as far as practicable, subject to availability of resources.
