For information LC Paper No. CB(2)2043/04-05(01) on 28 June 2005 SUBCOMMITTEE TO FOLLOW UP THE OUTSTANDING LEISURE AND CULTURAL SERVICES PROJECTS OF THE FORMER MUNICIPAL COUNCILS Report on Leisure and Cultural Services Projects Purpose This paper reports on the outcome of the review on the implementation programme of the 25 priority projects announced in the Chief Executive’s 2005 Policy Address and the overall position of the leisure and cultural services (LCS) projects and population in each of the 18 districts. Background 2. At the meeting held on 9 May 2005, the Subcommittee requested the Administration to provide a revised implementation programme of the 25 priority projects as well as the information on the provision of LCS facilities and the population in each of the 18 districts. Revised Implementation Programme of the 25 Priority Projects 3. With the concerted efforts of the related bureaux/departments, we are able to come up with a revised tentative implementation programme of the 25 projects (Annex 1). Of the 25 projects, we are targeting to advance the completion dates of 21 projects, by speeding up the drawing up of the scopes of individual projects; compressing the planning process at the pre-construction stage; and advancing the bidding of funds where possible. The revised programme is dependent upon the successful bidding of the necessary capital funding and findings of the necessary studies, e.g. environmental impact assessment. A total of 2 700 jobs arising from the 25 projects is expected to be PS121-05(1)-(LegCo on 28.6.05)Report on LCS projects - 2 - created between 2007 and 2011 in the construction industry, with the majority of the jobs being created by end 2008(Note). 4. Owing to some interfacing and technical problems as well as the lead time required to approach the Town Planning Board for necessary statutory approvals and the need to conduct environmental and traffic impact studies, we are not able to advance the completion dates of four projects (Tin Shui Wai Public Library cum Indoor Recreation Centre, Open Space at Tai Kok Tsui Temporary Market, Lung Mei Bathing Beach and Ecological Park at Tso Kung Tam Valley). Provision of LCS Facilities and Population in the 18 districts 5. The provision of existing LCS facilities and the population in each of the 18 districts are at Annex 2. The list also comprises projects under construction or active planning, the 25 priority projects as announced in the 2005 Chief Executive’s Policy Address, and projects under review. The Way Forward 6. The Administration will make effort to enable timely delivery of the priority projects in hand, regularly review those outstanding ex-MC projects not accorded priority for the time being, and at the same time identify new projects having regard to the changing needs of the community. Advice Sought 7. Members are invited to note the updated position of the 25 priority projects and the LCS facilities of each of the 18 districts. Home Affairs Bureau June 2005 (Note) The 2 700 jobs will not be created at the same time and they will only last for the duration of construction.
