Part 1 – Items for Discussion Agenda Item 1: Confirmation of the Draft Minutes of the 19th DDHC Meeting held on 28 January 2019 4. The Chairman said that prior to the meeting, the draft minutes of the aforesaid meeting had been circulated to all Members and relevant government department representatives. The Secretariat had not received any amendment proposals so far. 5. The minutes were confirmed by the Committee. 3 Agenda Item 2: Motion on the Objection to the Inclusion of Ap Lei Chau Inland Lot No. 137 into this Year’s Land Sale Programme (Item raised by Mr AU Nok-hin) (DDHC Paper No. 7/2019) (Ms YAM Pauline, Ms CHAN Judy Kapui and Mr FUNG Se-goun joined the meeting at 2:36 p.m., 2:47 p.m. and 3:37 p.m. respectively.) 6. The Chairman welcomed Ms WONG Wai Ling, Senior Estate Surveyor/Land Supply (District Lands Office, Hong Kong West and South) of the Lands Department (LandsD) to the meeting. 7. The Chairman said that in addition to Mr Au Nok-hin’s motion (i.e. the Original Motion) set out in the agenda, Ms CHEUNG Sik-yung, MH had also proposed an amended motion (i.e. Amended Motion 1) prior to the meeting. Since the Original Motion and Amended Motion 1 were of the same nature, they would be discussed jointly. The content was as follows: (a) “Original Motion”: (Moved by Mr Au Nok-hin, seconded by Mr LO Kin-hei) “This Council strongly objects to the Government’s decision to include Ap Lei Chau Inland Lot No. 137 into this year’s Land Sale Programme and once again betrayed the Ap Lei Chau residents. Ap Lei Chau is one of the world’s most densely populated islands. Any residential development will inevitably have severe impact on the nearby residences and schools. Besides, this Council is extremely discontented with the Government’s encroachment on a pet garden project that has been included in the District Minor Works programme, which is in conflict with this Council and tramples on the aspiration of the residents for the construction of pet garden at the said location. The Government has time and again been using the unevenly distributed open space shown in the Aberdeen Outline Zoning Plan to conceal the fact that there are excessive residential developments with too little open space in Ap Lei Chau. This Council sternly refuses to accept such a response given by the government department, and demands that the Land Sale Programme be withdrawn immediately to open up the site for use as a pet garden.” 4 (b) “Amended Motion 1”: (Moved by Ms CHEUNG Sik-yung MH, seconded by Ms CHAN Judy Kapui, Ms LAM Yuk-chun MH and Dr MAK TSE How-ling, MH) “The Government has been granting approval for residential developments in Ap Lei Chau without long-term planning for the development of the island. The imbalance in the planning of developments has led to an ever-increasing growth in the population of Ap Lei Chau which has become one of the most densely populated islands in the world. Even though the MTR South Island Line (East) (only 3-car train service is provided) has been put into operation, the drastic rise in population has overloaded the severely inadequate roads, traffic and facilities in the communities of the island. Therefore, this Council strongly objects to the Government’s inclusion of Ap Lei Chau Inland Lot No. 137 into this year’s Land Sale Programme. In the meantime, we also urge the Government to seek a broad spectrum of opinions from the residents before deciding on the most suitable land use for the aforesaid part of land.” 8. The Chairman continued that the written replies from the government departments concerned were set out at Annex 2 to DDHC Paper No. 7/2019, and that the aforementioned motions would be discussed one by one. The Chairman first invited Mr AU Nok-hin to brief Members on the Original Motion. 9. Mr AU Nok-hin briefed Members on the Original Motion as follows: (a) the Government’s decision to include Ap Lei Chau Inland Lot No. 137 into the Land Sale Programme was indeed a betrayal of residents’ interests. With the Government implementing several Land Sale Programmes, the residents of Ap Lei Chau did not wish to see more residential developments, especially luxurious residential buildings, in the area. If the aforesaid Land Sale Programme was approved, it would only increase the population density of Ap Lei Chau, making the lives of the residents more hectic. It would also render the development of open space impossible. He urged Members to join hands to object to the land sale proposal so as to reflect the views of the residents in the Southern District; (b) there were a number of schools and residential developments such as Larvotto and Lei Tung Estate in the vicinity of the site. The overcrowding of Ap Lei Chau would be further aggravated upon the completion of the proposed property development. Moreover, Ap Lei Chau was already among the most densely populated islands in the world, hence he objected to the Government’s plan to implement residential development on such a small lot; 5 (c) Ap Lei Chau had seen a number of developments through land sale in recent years, but such developments were not indeed for meeting demand for housing development of Hong Kong, but to push up property prices to satisfy the needs of private property developers. As regards the proposed project, the concerned lot near Larvotto was previously a refuse collection point of the former Urban Council, and was very small. If the lot was to be used for developing luxurious residential buildings, more private cars would be plying through Ap Lei Chau which would put additional burden on the traffic of the Southern District. In this connection, he enquired the LandsD about the number of units and parking spaces that might be developed in that lot; (d) Working Group on District Minor Works Projects of SDC had approved developing the area into an open space, and his proposal back then was to develop a pet garden. The relevant departments considered that a pet garden could not be built at that stage after site visits, but some basic leisure facilities would be provided in the area. But no progress had been made after a year. He said that the Development Bureau (DEVB) should consult the Southern District Office (SDO) before carrying out land sale. As such, he criticised relevant departments for showing no respect to SDC’s decision and acting against people’s will.

  • Chapter 5 Provision of Aquatic Recreational and Sports Facilities
    Chapter 5 Provision of aquatic recreational and sports facilities Audit conducted a review to examine the provision and management of aquatic recreational and sports facilities by the Leisure and Cultural Services Department (LCSD) and to ascertain whether there were areas for improvement. Gazetted beaches 2. According to paragraph 2.4(a) of the Audit Report, a consultant, who carried out a coastal safety audit on the beaches of Hong Kong in 2000, had advised that the Rocky Bay Beach should be deleted from the list of gazetted beaches because of safety reason and low usage. However, the LCSD considered that de-gazetting beaches was a sensitive issue and decided not to take further action. The Committee asked about the sensitivity of the de-gazetting and whether the LCSD would de-gazette the beach. 3. In response, Ms Anissa WONG Sean-yee, Director of Leisure and Cultural Services, said that: - in deciding to close the Rocky Bay Beach because of its poor water quality, the Administration had considered whether the beach should be de-gazetted. At that time, the Administration was of the view that it should consider the development of the beach water quality. It was also concerned that the relevant District Council and beach goers might consider that they might need to observe the development of the issue for a period of time; and - taking into account the current situation of the water quality, the usage of the beach, as well as other factors, such as the usage rate of the Shek O Beach, the LCSD agreed in principle to Audit’s recommendation that the Rocky Bay Beach be de-gazetted.
