國安公眾教育展僅300入場人次 民青局稱將檢視公民教育資源中心工作計劃
The Committee on Civic Education under the Home and Youth Affairs Bureau set up the Civic Education Resource Centre at Youth Square in Chai Wan. The centre recorded low visitor numbers over the past three financial years, while the “National Security Public Education Exhibition” it held two years ago attracted only about 300 visits—an average of 20 visits a day over 15 days. New People’s Party Legislative Council member Lee Tung-kwok questioned whether the authorities had made good use of resources. Secretary for Home and Youth Affairs Alice Mak said the authorities would review the centre’s utilisation and work plan, and update its approach to attract members of the public to participate and visit.
民政及青年事務局轄下公民教育委員會，在柴灣青年廣場設立公民教育資源中心，但過去三個年度入場人次偏低，該中心前年舉辦的「國家安全公眾教育展覽」更僅得約300入場人次，即15日平均每日20入場人次。新民黨立法會議員黎棟國質疑，當局未有善用資源。民政及青年事務局局長麥美娟表示，當局將檢視中心的使用、工作計劃，及更新方法吸引市民參與參觀。

梁美芬指撥水節事件反映有人「伺機待發」 消息指一人被捕
A YouTuber sprayed water at police officers and television station staff at the Kowloon City water festival last Sunday, filmed the incident and mocked them. The video initially received just over 2,000 views, but pro-establishment columnist Kuk Wing-yin elevated the incident to the level of national security in a piece published in Ta Kung Pao today. At a special Finance Committee meeting of the Legislative Council, Leung Mei-fan said the water festival incident showed that some people were still “lying in wait” in Hong Kong amid its “transition from stability to prosperity”. She hoped the Security Bureau could find a way to make members of the public “genuinely understand that legislating for Article 23 is a good thing”. Secretary for Security Chris Tang said soft resistance did exist and therefore had to be guarded against, but that the legislation required careful study.消息人士指一人被捕。
有YouTuber在上周日九龍城潑水節向警員及電視台人員射水，並拍片嘲諷，本來影片只得2,000多人觀看，但建制專欄作家屈穎妍今日在《大公報》揀文，將事件上升至國家安全層次。在立法會特別財委會，梁美芬指從潑水節事件，反映有人仍在「由治及興」的香港伺機待發，她希望保安局有方法令市民「真心知道廿三條立法，係一個好東西」。保安局長鄧炳強指，軟對抗確實存在故必然防範，但立法要仔細研究。

大律師公會5年後再訪京 杜淦堃稱是「朋友久別重逢」
The Hong Kong Bar Association visited Beijing again today, following its previous visit in 2018. Summing up the trip, its chairman and Senior Counsel Victor (1977) Dawes said that while some had described it as a “trip to break the ice”, he believed “old friends reuniting after a long separation” was more apt. He said the delegation met Shen Chunyao, director of the Basic Law Committee, in the morning to exchange views on the situation in Hong Kong, legislation under Article 23 of the Basic Law and the Hong Kong National Security Law. He stressed that it would not “report only the good news and not the bad news”, but would reflect the situation in Hong Kong accurately.
香港大律師公會繼2018年後今日再次訪京，主席兼資深大律師杜淦堃今日總結行程時，稱有人形容是次為「破冰之旅」，但自己認為「朋友久別重逢」更為貼切。他指，早上與基本法委員會主任沈春耀見面，就香港情況及《基本法》23條立法和《港區國安法》交換意見，並強調不會「報喜不報憂」，會如實反映香港情況。

楊潤雄：體育政治應有適當分野 政府多年來少介入體育總會運作
The fallout from the incorrect national anthem being played at the World Ice Hockey Championship continued, with the Sports Federation and Olympic Committee of Hong Kong, China recently initiating procedures to suspend the Hong Kong Ice Hockey Association’s membership. Some ice hockey players have voiced concern that a reduction in government funding would affect the development of ice hockey. Secretary for Culture, Sports and Tourism Kevin Yeung repeatedly stressed on radio this morning (the 8th) that the authorities could reduce certain funding without affecting athletes, while funding for training and competitions would not be affected. He said: “I also hope to put the athletes’ minds at ease.” Asked whether the authorities had communicated directly with the ice hockey association, Yeung said the bureau had reviewed reports submitted by the Sports Federation and Olympic Committee of Hong Kong, China and the ice hockey association, but the Hong Kong Government had traditionally left communication between the Sports Federation and its member associations to the organisations themselves, allowing sports bodies to operate independently. He said: “Many countries often say that sport and politics should be appropriately separated, so over the years the government has rarely directly intervened in the operations of sports associations.”
世界冰球錦標賽播錯國歌事件繼續發酵 ，港協暨奧委會日前啟動暫停冰協會員資格的程序。近日有冰球隊員開腔，憂慮一旦港府削減資助，會影響冰球發展。文體旅局長楊潤雄今早（8日）在電台多番強調，當局可在不影響運動員下削減個別資助，培訓及出賽的資助不受影響：「我喺呢到都希望安到啲運動員嘅心啦。」被問到當局有否直接與冰協溝通，楊潤雄稱局方有檢視港協及冰協雙方呈交的報告，但港府一向交由港協與屬會溝通，讓體育單位獨立運作：「好多時外國都講『體育同政治應該有適當嘅分野』，所以咁多年以嚟政府都好少直接介入體育總會嘅運作。」

政府擬「不影響運動員下」削冰協撥款 港隊成員稱諷刺、憂致青黃不接
The Hong Kong ice hockey team won a bronze medal at the World Championships in February, but controversy over the incorrect national anthem being played at the event has continued for a month. The Sports Federation and Olympic Committee of Hong Kong, China, issued a statement recently saying it had begun procedures to suspend the Hong Kong Ice Hockey Association’s membership. The government also said it would consider reducing funding for the association “on the condition that athletes are not affected”. Two Hong Kong team players were interviewed on radio today (the 7th). Deputy captain Sham Cheuk-him said the wording was ironic and would not help resolve the problem: “If you cut funding, how can that not affect the players?” He said ice hockey had developed gradually in Hong Kong in recent years, with many children performing well, and urged the authorities to consider other forms of punishment.
香港冰球隊2月出戰世界錦標賽勇奪銅牌，惟賽事播錯國歌，事件持續一個月仍未平息。港協暨奧委會日前更發聲明，指啟動暫停冰協會員資格的程序，政府亦發稿稱會考慮「在不影響運動員的前提」下，削減對冰協的撥款資助。兩名港隊球員今日（7日）接受電台訪問，其中副隊長沈卓謙認為說法諷刺，無助解決問題：「你cut funding其實點唔影響個球員呢？」他認為近年本港冰球運動發展漸佳，很多兒童表現理想，促當局能考慮其他懲罰方式。

反修例事件89名公務員被捕 9人不獲起訴或無罪仍被內部紀律處分
The Government said 89 civil servants had been arrested for involvement in anti-extradition bill incidents. Of these, 58 had left the Government, while five had been convicted by the courts in recent months and would face disciplinary action. The remaining 26, although acquitted or not prosecuted, were still required to undergo internal investigations; nine were subject to disciplinary action after investigation. The Police Force has been the department with the most dismissals for three consecutive years, with 16 people dismissed. It also had the most establishment vacancies, with more than 6,600, accounting for over 30% of the Government’s total establishment vacancies. Last year, 198 people left the Police Force before completing their probationary period, also the highest among all departments.

A total of 3,734 civil servants resigned last year, the highest number since the handover, with nearly half coming from the 20-to-35 age group. The Intellectual Property Department and Radio Television Hong Kong were the hardest hit, with resignations accounting for about 8% of their staff. Departments with many professional grades, including the Civil Aviation Department, the Department of Health and the Environmental Protection Department, also recorded relatively high resignation rates. Among policy bureaux, 25 staff resigned from the Commerce and Economic Development Bureau, five times the number in the year before last, accounting for nearly one-tenth of its staff.
