Since Mr James TO, the Member asking this question, is not present, according to the relevant provisions in the Rules of Procedure, I now call upon Ms Starry LEE to ask this question. Ms Starry LEE, please raise the question. Changes in Hong Kong's economy, rule of law and freedom as well as society 1. MS STARRY LEE (in Cantonese): President, it has been reported that with the Law of the People's Republic of China on Safeguarding National Security in the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region coming into operation on 30 June this year, aspects of Hong Kong such as economy, rule of law and freedom, as well as society have shown accelerated changes. In this connection, will the Government inform this Council, since the beginning of this year: (1) of the countries which have implemented economic sanction measures on Hong Kong (including the revocation of preferential treatments); the bilateral economic and trade agreements the signing or implementation of which has been deferred, or which have been suspended or rescinded; the foreign technology groups or electronic data storage providers which have denied access of the Securities and Futures Commission to their clients' financial data stored at data centres; the international economic and trade, cultural and educational exchange programmes organized with Hong Kong which have been suspended (set out in a table); 1476 LEGISLATIVE COUNCIL ― 18 November 2020 (2) of the bilateral judicial agreements (including agreements on surrender of fugitive offenders and legal assistance) the signing or implementation of which has been deferred, or which have been suspended or rescinded; the overseas TechNet companies which have suspended the processing of the Hong Kong Police's requests for seeking users' information; the changes in Hong Kong's global rankings in terms of rule of law and freedom in the past 12 months; and (3) of the respective numbers of Hong Kong people who have applied for Certificates of No Criminal Conviction on grounds of emigration and pursuing further studies, as well as the respective numbers of university, secondary school and primary school students who have dropped out (with a breakdown by reasons); how such figures compare with the figures for the same periods in the past two years; whether it has estimated if such figures will continue to rise in future, and assessed the impacts of such trend on the development of Hong Kong? SECRETARY FOR SECURITY (in Cantonese): President, having consulted the Department of Justice, the Commerce and Economic Development Bureau, the Financial Services and the Treasury Bureau, the Education Bureau ("EDB"), the Constitutional and Mainland Affairs Bureau and the Home Affairs Bureau, my consolidated reply to the Member's question is as follows: It is the common and international practice for various countries in the world to safeguard national security through legislation. As national security falls within the purview of the Central Authorities, our country has the right to legislate for the matter. The Law of the People's Republic of China on Safeguarding National Security in the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region ("the National Security Law") establishes effective legal system and enforcement mechanisms for safeguarding national security in Hong Kong, solidifying and strengthening the "one country, two systems" principle, Hong Kong people administering Hong Kong, and a high degree of autonomy. The National Security Law clearly stipulates that human rights shall be respected and protected in safeguarding national security in the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region ("HKSAR"), and that the legitimate rights and freedoms which residents LEGISLATIVE COUNCIL ― 18 November 2020 1477 enjoy shall be protected. The freedoms and rights enjoyed by residents under the Basic Law remain intact; and the judicial independence remains totally unchanged. The implementation of the National Security Law has reversed the chaotic situation involving conspiracy to attain "Hong Kong Independence" and serious violence in the past year, and restored stability in Hong Kong, thereby allowing the city to resume its normal operation and return to the path of development. Some countries have a large number and broad variety of national security laws, but have adopted unreasonable targeted measures against HKSAR using the National Security Law as an excuse for political purpose.

  • Legislative Council Panel on Transport Subcommittee on Matters Relating to Railways
    LC Paper No. CB(1)1012/04-05(03) Legislative Council Panel on Transport Subcommittee on matters relating to railways Government’s assessment on the independent review by Lloyd’s Register Rail on the MTR system Purpose This paper sets out the Government’s assessment on the independent review report on the performance and asset management of the Mass Transit Railways (MTR) system carried out by the Lloyd’s Register Rail (“Lloyd’s”). 2. The Government’s assessment focuses on the following areas - (a) whether the review is sufficiently comprehensive and adequate to give a meaningful assessment of the performance and asset management of MTR; (b) whether the approach and methodology of the review is appropriate and robust; (c) analysis of MTR performance over the years including the spate of incidents in the latter half of 2004; (d) assessment on whether MTRCL’s maintenance and outsourcing arrangements have posed any adverse impact on the service performance and whether there is an ageing problem with the railway system; and (e) whether the recommendations of the review are effective in enhancing the service of MTRCL. 3. In examining the report, the Government has exchanged views with local experts on the findings. 1 Background 4. Arising from the spate of incidents occurring in the MTR network in the latter half of 2004 which has caused considerable public concerns over the safety and reliability of the railways, MTRCL commissioned Lloyd’s in mid-October 2004 to carry out an independent review on the MTR system. The review was completed in end-January 2005 and the final report of the review was submitted to the Government on 4 February 2005.

    Legislative Council Meeting of 18 November 2020 Motion on “Alleviating Road Traffic Congestion” Progress Report Purpose At the Legislative Council (“LegCo”) meeting of 18 November 2020, the motion “Alleviating Road Traffic Congestion” moved by Hon LUK Chung-hung, as amended by Hon CHAN Han-pan, was passed. Full text of the motion passed is at Annex. In consultation with relevant bureaux and departments, we report to Members on the progress of the work concerned. Progress Relocating important business development areas to other districts 2. Hong Kong 2030+: Towards a Planning Vision and Strategy Transcending 2030" conducted by the Development Bureau and the Planning Department puts forward a conceptual spatial framework, with a view to addressing in the long run the imbalance in home-job spatial distribution with a metropolitan business core, two strategic growth areas and three primary development axes. This includes planning and developing economic land (including commercial land) of certain scale in different areas of the New Territories. Such proposed economic land mainly includes Tung Chung New Town Extension, Kwu Tung North/Fanling North New Development Area, Hung Shui Kiu/Ha Tsuen New Development Area, artificial islands in the Central Waters, New Territories North development, etc. These developments will enable more residents of the New Territories to work in the same region, thereby alleviating congestion at major transport corridors, as well as attract those living in the metropolitan areas to work in the New Territories. Relocating government departments from central business districts 3. It is the Government’s policy to accommodate its offices in government-owned properties as far as circumstances permit and reprovision those with no location requirements out of high value areas, including the central business districts.
