Mr POON Siu-ping will address the Council on the "Report of the Panel on Public Service 2017-2018". Report of the Panel on Public Service 2017-2018 MR POON SIU-PING (in Cantonese): President, in my capacity as Chairman of the Panel on Public Service ("the Panel"), I submit its work report for this session and highlight several major areas of work. The Panel welcomed that 6 700 new posts would be created in the civil service establishment in 2018-2019. Members of the Panel hoped that the new permanent posts created might further reduce the number of non-civil service contract staff. The Panel continued to actively follow up on the latest updates on the Administration's extension of the service of civil servants. In the 2017 Policy Address, the Chief Executive announced the re-examination of allowing serving civil servants joining the Government between 1 June 2000 and 31 May 2015 to choose to extend their retirement age on a voluntary basis, so as to meet the challenges arising from the ageing population and shrinking labour force. The Civil Service Bureau had launched a consultation this year from 20 February to 30 April to seek views of the staff sides and grade/departmental management on the proposed implementation framework of the new initiative, and received 470 submissions. The Panel also consulted the civil service staff unions/associations and the public on the initiative, and a total of 19 submissions were received. After studying the views collected, the Administration announced the implementation details of the initiative last week, which was scheduled for launching in July this year. The Administration regularly briefed the Panel on its provision of training and development for civil servants. This year, some members opined that the Civil Service Bureau should enhance the training of civil servants, particularly national affairs, the Basic Law and the relationship between the Constitution of China and the Basic Law. Since the Chief Executive had stated in the Policy Address that additional resources would be allocated for developing Hong Kong into a smart city to improve people's livelihood and make Hong Kong a more liveable city, members generally considered that the Administration should step 13118 LEGISLATIVE COUNCIL ― 27 June 2018 up its efforts and organize more relevant courses for civil servants, such as Big Data and application of innovation and technology, so as to enhance service efficiency and quality of departments. Besides, members also welcomed the Chief Executive's proposal of establishing a civil service college. Members noted that the Administration had identified a site generally suitable for the construction of the civil service college, and was conducting further planning, studies and follow-up. President, the written report has given a detailed account of the work of the Panel. I so submit. ORAL ANSWERS TO QUESTIONS PRESIDENT (in Cantonese): Questions. First question. Collection of personal data of participants of public assemblies 1. MR SHIU KA-CHUN (in Cantonese): It has been reported that some secondary school students arrived at the Victoria Park in the afternoon of the 4th of this month to get themselves ready for attending the June 4th candlelight vigil to be held there that night. During that time, a woman, for the reason of compiling statistics on the number of participating students, enquired with those students and jotted down the names of the schools they were attending, and she refused to disclose her identity to the reporters. Albeit not wearing a police warrant card, the woman was not stopped when she entered the Police Command Post on the spot. In this connection, will the Government inform this Council: (1) whether the aforesaid woman is a police officer; if so, of the duties she was discharging at that time and why she was not wearing her police warrant card; if not, the reasons why she was not stopped when she entered the Police Command Post; (2) whether the Police will deploy plain-clothed police officers to compile statistics on the number of students participating in public assemblies; if so, of the number of participating students in the past five years; if not, how it prevents lawbreakers from collecting the personal data from students under the guise of compiling statistics; and LEGISLATIVE COUNCIL ― 27 June 2018 13119 (3) of the ranks of police officers who are generally deployed by the Police to assess the number of participants of public assemblies, and whether they will also collect the personal data of the participants; if so, of the items, uses and retention periods of the data collected, and the measures to prevent such data from being misused? SECRETARY FOR SECURITY (in Cantonese): President, Hong Kong residents enjoy freedom of peaceful assembly, of procession and of demonstration.

  • Evolution of Urban Agriculture in Hong Kong: Stepping Towards Multifunctionality
    Evolution of Urban Agriculture in Hong Kong: Stepping Towards Multifunctionality LAU, Hoi Lung A Thesis Submitted in Partial Fulfilment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Philosophy in Geography and Resource Management The Chinese University of Hong Kong September 2013 Thesis/ Assessment Committee Professor NG Sai Leung (Chair) Professor MARAFA Lawal M. (Thesis Supervisor) Professor XU Yuan (Committee member) Professor OWEN Richard Bernhart (External Examiner) ABSTRACT Abstract of thesis entitled: Evolution of Urban Agriculture in Hong Kong: Stepping Towards Multifunctionality Submitted by LAU, Hoi Lung for the degree of Master of Philosophy in Geography and Resource Management at The Chinese University of Hong Kong in September, 2013 Urban agriculture (UA) is an irreplaceable component of a city for economic, social and environmental aspects. It can contribute to major problems in highly urbanized cities such as food security, waste-treatments and unemployment of the low-skilled labour. While UA is achieving success in many other metropolises like Singapore and New York, the situation in Hong Kong is rather dimmed. Moreover, research related to UA in Hong Kong is very limited in the past decades. In the recent decades, UA is studied as a multifunctional land use and it is gaining recognition on the significance on sustainability to a city. This perspective arises from the transformation of productivist agriculture during the era of Green Revolution to the post-productivist one nowadays. It would be a new perspective to assess the UA in Hong Kong and to review if UA can promote sustainability in Hong Kong. Data are collected through participant observation of agricultural events, questionnaire survey towards stakeholders, in-depth interview with experts of the field and site visits to farms with distinct functions.

    For information STDC Paper 7/2021 on 11 March 2021 Sha Tin District Council Report on the Meeting of the Development and Housing Committee held on 18 February 2021 (1) The Committee noted the following: (i) the responses of government departments and relevant organisation to matters arising from the previous meeting; and (ii) the Population of Public Housing Estates and Private Sector Participation Scheme Courts in Sha Tin. (2) The Committee endorsed the following: (i) the establishment of “Working Group on Labour Affairs and Land and Economic Development of Sha Tin” under the Committee and its terms of reference, and Mr CHOW Hiu-laam, Felix elected as the convenor; (ii) the term of office of the said Working Group from 18 February 2021 to 31 December 2023; and (iii) the motion on “Requesting Members of Town Planning Board with Potential Conflict of Interest to Withdraw from the Discussion on Ma On Shan Outline Zoning Plan No. S/MOS/22”: “Background The consultation on the proposed amendments to ‘Ma On Shan Outline Zoning Plan No. S/MOS/22’ just came to an end in December 2020. The Town Planning Board (TPB) will discuss the amendments in future meetings. Though the amendments do not involve any private land, the lot in the amendments is very close to a lot of over 10 hectares on the hill possessed by Sun Hung Kai & Co. Ltd (SHK). The formation works will also include a section of Ma On Shan Tsuen Road whose formation works ( 1 ) are originally supposed to be carried out by SHK. A conflict of interest is suspected if members of the TPB with SHK-related potential interests continue to participate in the discussion.
