He particularly welcomed Dr CHUI Tak-yi, JP, Under Secretary for Food and Health, to the meeting with Members. 2. Mr HO Wai-pan was absent due to other commitments. Item I: Confirmation of the agenda 3. The Chairman said that on this agenda, there were three matters arising from the previous minutes and seven discussion items, followed by report items of government departments and committees. To control the meeting time, some discussion items (including Item V, “Hong Kong citizens being denied entry to Mainland China and Macau” and Item VII, “Concern over the Government’s attempt to spread white terror in the education sector”) would be referred to the Culture, Arts, Recreation, Sports, Welfare, Education and Public Order Committee (“CAPOC”) for follow-up. 4. The agenda was confirmed with no objection by Members. - 3 - Item II: Efforts to prevent the spread of COVID-19 in the community (Including “The use of Pat Heung Junior Police Call Activity Centre as a quarantine centre”) (YLDC Paper Nos. 47a-f and 48/2020) 5. The Chairman invited Dr CHUI Tak-yi, JP, Under Secretary for Food and Health, to introduce the Government’s work to prevent and fight the disease. 6. Dr CHUI Tak-yi, JP, Under Secretary for Food and Health, briefed Members on the Government’s work carried out in response to the novel coronavirus (COVID-19) outbreak, as well as on the use of the Junior Police Call Permanent Activity Centre-cum-Integrated Youth Training Camp (“JPC Centre”) in Pat Heung, Yuen Long, as a quarantine centre. 7. The Chairman asked about the Government’s views on requisitioning Hong Kong Disneyland Hotel as a designated quarantine centre. 8. Dr CHUI Tak-yi, JP said that hotels were not the first choice for quarantine centres, citing the unsuitability of their original specifications and designs. 9. The Vice Chairman said that the Government had closed its international border to travellers from South Korea amid the worsening COVID-19 outbreaks there. He suggested that the Government implement similar measures on mainland visitors as soon as possible to safeguard the health of Hong Kong citizens. Moreover, he suggested that the Food and Health Bureau (“FHB”) coordinate efforts on supplying protective items to protect the health of medical staff and, if possible, giving away face masks to all Hong Kong citizens. 10. Dr CHUI Tak-yi, JP said that the FHB decided to control entries into and exits from South Korea after assessing the epidemic situations in different countries. The Bureau would also implement measures to mitigate imported case risks, having regard to the situations of countries and regions with a sharp rise in COVID-19 cases. The FHB would continue to enhance anti-epidemic measures, while at the same time calling on the public to reduce social activities in order to curb imported cases at source. He also pointed out that, in view of the tight global supply of face masks, the Government would first provide adequate protective gear to frontline medical staff, frontline staff participating in quarantine-related work, and frontline cleansing workers. Hospitals would take protective measures for their medical staff in different clinical areas according to risk classifications. 11. Mr Ronnie TANG said that Pat Heung villagers had expressed concern that the COVID- 19 virus would probably be transmitted through wastewater if the JPC Centre was used as a quarantine centre.

  • Paper on the Operation of the Tin Sau Bazaar in Tin Shui Wai Prepared By
    立法會 Legislative Council LC Paper No. CB(2)1299/12-13(08) Ref : CB2/PL/HA Panel on Home Affairs Background brief prepared by the Legislative Council Secretariat for the meeting on 14 June 2013 Tin Sau Bazaar Purpose 1. This paper provides background information on the setting up of Tin Sau Bazaar in Tin Shui Wai ("TSW") and summarizes the views and concerns of members of the Panel on Home Affairs ("the Panel") on the subject. Background 2. According to the Administration, the rental increase in shopping malls and markets in TSW, which had in turn led to high commodity prices and affected the livelihood of local residents, had been an on-going concern to the Yuen Long District Council ("DC") and residents in the district in recent years. There were also calls for the Government to increase local employment opportunities in TSW by establishing an open bazaar to boost the local economy. In the light of this, the Government had actively explored ways with different interested groups to address the needs of TSW residents. In response, the Tung Wah Group of Hospitals ("TWGHs") submitted a proposal to the Government, indicating its interest in operating an open bazaar in TSW on a non-profit-making basis. 3. On 1 September 2012, the Chief Secretary for Administration announced the proposal of setting up an open bazaar at Tin Sau Road with about 200 stalls to be operated and managed by TWGHs. According to the proposal, TWGHs would set up a social enterprise which would lease the stalls in the bazaar at lower rents to small businesses for selling daily necessities.

    LC Paper No. CB(2)1831/12-13(01) For Information Legislative Council Panel on Home Affairs Matters arising from the meeting on 14 June 2013 Operation of Tin Sau Bazaar in Tin Shui Wai Purpose At the meeting of the Legislative Council Panel on Home Affairs held on 14 June 2013, Members discussed the operation of the Tung Wah Group of Hospitals Tin Sau Bazaar (Tin Sau Bazaar). As requested by the Panel, this paper provides a consolidated response to the comments made by Members and deputations at the meeting. Development of Bazaars 2. Some Members and deputations raised at the meeting that the Government should formulate a policy for fostering bazaar development. The Government considers that any specific proposals of setting up bazaars should take into account the situation of individual district. A consensus on the proposal should be forged at the district level with full consideration of the views given by residents nearby and the support of the District Council after thorough discussion. If a consensus can be reached at the district level, depending on the specific nature of the bazaar, the relevant government departments will follow up the respective matters. District organisation may take up the planning and management role in order to provide the flexibility for better addressing the local demand. 3. Tin Sau Bazaar is one of the examples of establishing a bazaar in response to the specific situation and needs of a district. The Yuen Long District Office (YLDO) and the Tung Wah Group of Hospitals (TWGHs) have been actively engaging various stakeholders and listen to their views.

Tin Sau Bazaar is operated by the Tung Wah Group of Hospitals (TWGHs) as a social enterprise with non-profit-making objectives, with the aims to provide more shopping choices and affordable goods for local residents, develop the local economy, and create local employment. 3. Being one of the longest standing and largest charitable organisations in Hong Kong, TWGHs has considerable experience in running social enterprises. In response to the needs of the residents in Tin Shui Wai, TWGHs submitted the Tin Sau Bazaar proposal to the Government, indicating its interest in operating and managing Tin Sau Bazaar. Upon the Government’s acceptance of the proposal, the Government leased the site by short-term tenancy to TWGHs at a nominal rate on 25 January 2013. 4. TWGHs has operated the Tin Sau Bazaar since early 2013 when there were 182 stalls for Yuen Long residents aged 18 or above who are interested to join the Tin Sau Bazaar to apply for. TWGHs allocated part of the stalls to applicants on Comprehensive Social Security Assistance or with children receiving full textbook assistance. Starting from early 2014, TWGHs has designated a small proportion of the stalls for open bidding by operators who have more experience in commercial operation with a view to diversifying the goods and services at Tin Sau Bazaar and making them more competitive.
