陳茂波四招「縮數」發展北都人工島 發行債券多讓市民認購
Accounting firm PricewaterhouseCoopers (PwC) previously estimated that the construction costs involved in the Lantau Tomorrow Vision and the Northern Metropolis could reach HK$1,566 billion. In an interview with Ta Kung Pao, Financial Secretary Chan Mo-po disclosed four measures to use “social capital” to ease fiscal pressure, including issuing bonds with more made available for public subscription; granting sites directly to enterprises to reduce the government’s costs of land formation and building construction; raising funds to support development through the “rail-plus-property” model; and awarding projects under a “build-operate-transfer” model for private organisations to build and operate.
根據會計師事務所羅兵咸永道（PwC）早前推算，明日大嶼和北部都會區涉及建設成本高達15,660億元。財政司司長陳茂波接受《大公報》訪問，透露四招利用「社會資金」減輕財政壓力，包括發行債券多讓市民認購；直接批地予企業，減少政府平整土地及建設樓宇成本；以「鐵路加物業」模式籌措資金支持發展；以「興建、營運、轉移」模式批出項目讓私人機構建設及營運。

Following Wen Wei Po and Ta Kung Pao, the Hong Kong China News Agency published its interview today.

今年底試行短訊發放人登記制度 銀行業率先推行
Following the full implementation of the real-name registration programme for SIM cards in February this year, the Hong Kong Government will introduce an SMS sender registration scheme by the end of this year, initially trialling it in the banking sector before extending it to other industries. Bernard Chan Pak-li, Deputy Secretary for Commerce and Economic Development, said the bureau would formulate a code of practice by the end of next month and complete preparations, including network upgrades, by the end of October. The scheme will officially be trialled by year-end. He said, “The registration scheme covers both domestic and overseas [senders]; they must register first before they can use an organisation’s name to send SMS messages.”
繼今年2月全面推行電話卡實名制後，港府今年底加碼推出短訊發放人登記制度，率先在銀行業試行，再推廣至其他行業。商務及經濟發展局副局長陳百里指，局方下月底制定實務守則，10月底完成網絡升級等籌備工作，今年底正式試行，「登記制度包含域內、域外，要先登記了，才能夠用機構的名稱去發放短訊」。

三中大校董發公開信斥目中無人
Tommy Cheung of the Liberal Party, Lau Kwok-fan of the Democratic Alliance for the Betterment and Progress of Hong Kong, and Tang Ka-piu of the Hong Kong Federation of Trade Unions, who are also members of The Chinese University of Hong Kong Council, introduced a private bill in the Legislative Council to amend the Chinese University of Hong Kong Ordinance and restructure the Council, substantially reducing the proportion of members from within the university. Cheung also wrote to CUHK demanding payment of more than 750,000 in costs arising from the proposed amendment. Three CUHK Council members elected by the Alumni Senate issued an open letter today, accusing Cheung of “bringing a culture of abuse into the Council” and of showing contempt for others. They also said his proposed amendments disregarded the task force’s report. When contacted by HK01, Cheung said only: “I haven’t read the letter and am not particularly interested.”

With the July 1 Handover Anniversary approaching, Chief Executive John Lee met the press before an Executive Council meeting and announced a series of July 1 discounts, including free rides on the Star Ferry’s Wan Chai–Tsim Sha Tsui route and five consecutive days of free tram rides starting July 1. Asked about the possibility of demonstrations on July 1, he said the day had been hijacked in the past and that people could not “take it lightly”.

John Lee also believed that Hong Kong residents would spend July 1 in a happy atmosphere and frame of mind.

政府研提供名單 關愛隊探訪照顧者
Concerns have been raised over community caregivers and mental health support. The government said it was studying the use of District Services and Care Teams (Care Teams) to strengthen support and refer cases in need. Roy Lap Wai Chu, vice-chairman of the Hong Kong Island Federation of Associations, said the government was considering providing lists of service users’ family members for regular visits by Care Teams. Chu suggested expanding the target groups to include other high-risk groups. Chi Wai (1965) Cheung, president of the Hong Kong Council of Social Service, said basic screening and referrals required professional training and that Care Teams should not become involved in formal services. Legislative Council member Tik Chi-yuen, representing the social welfare sector, expressed concern that Care Teams comprised non-professionals, while some social welfare organisations said the work of the two sides overlapped and lacked coordination, calling for a communication mechanism to be established.
社區照顧者及精神健康支援問題引起社會關注，政府表示研究利用「地區服務及關愛隊伍」（關愛隊）加強支援，轉介有需要個案。香港島各界聯合會常務副理事長朱立威透露，政府研究方向包括提供服務使用者家屬名單，由關愛隊定期探訪。朱建議擴闊對象至其他高風險群組。社總會長張志偉指出，基本篩查和轉介需要專業訓練，關愛隊不宜介入正規服務。社福界議員狄志遠憂慮關愛隊非專業人員，而部分社福機構反映兩者工作重疊、缺乏協調，冀設立溝通機制。

管浩鳴倡公僕輸入外勞 公務員事務局：不符《基本法》
The Government recently announced the large-scale importation of foreign workers in several sectors. At a Legislative Council committee meeting this morning on civil service pay adjustment, Election Committee constituency member Kwok Ho-ming advocated importing foreign workers for some technical civil service grades. He also said that, if the mainland recruited Hong Kong people for public service positions, Hong Kong should follow suit and allow mainlanders to come to Hong Kong to work. Permanent Secretary of the Civil Service Bureau Cheuk Man (1965-12-29) Leung said that only Hong Kong permanent residents may hold public office, and directly hiring foreign workers would not be consistent with the Basic Law. However, services can currently be outsourced through private companies, which can hire the relevant personnel.
政府日前公布多個行業大規模輸入外勞，今早立法會一個委員會討論公務員薪酬調整，選委界管浩鳴就提倡部份公務員技術職系亦要輸入外勞，又稱內地招聘港人做公職員，香港應該仿效「調轉頭畀內地人來港做」。公務員事務局常任秘書長梁卓文回覆指，只有香港永久居民才可擔任公職，直接聘請外勞不符《基本法》，惟現時可以外判服務，透過私人公司聘請相關人士。

教育局推資源套列教師不恰當行為 籲勿叫學生花名、搭肩合照
The Education Bureau launched the “Guidelines on Teachers’ Professional Conduct” late last year, listing things teachers “should” or “should not” do, including “consciously safeguarding national security”. Yesterday (15th), it uploaded a school training resource kit detailing four case scenarios for teachers to discuss whether the conduct was appropriate. One involved putting an arm around a student for a photograph; the bureau said teachers must not engage in unnecessary physical contact simply because they are familiar with students, and must “consciously maintain an appropriate social distance from students”. Another case involved a teacher calling a student by the nickname “Quail”. The bureau said the conduct set a bad example for students to imitate, adding that “even if calling a student by a nickname is intended to express goodwill and affection, this behaviour is still inappropriate.”
教育局去年底推出《教師專業操守指引》，列出教師「應該」或「不應該」做的事情，如要求「自覺維護國家安全」。教育局昨（15日）再上載學校培訓資源套，詳列4宗個案情境，供教師討論是否恰當；其中包括與學生搭肩合照，局方指不能因與學生熟絡而作不必要的身體接觸，須「自覺地與學生保持適當的社交距離」；另一個案則講述教師以花名「鵪鶉」稱呼學生，當局指行為作不良示範使學生仿效，「即使是表示善意和親暱地叫學生的花名，這行為都不可取。」
