發展局斥全球填海報告「危言聳聽」 本研社：諮詢仍進行 指責「顯示前設立場」
The public consultation on the over-HK$580 billion Kau Yi Chau reclamation project under the Lantau Tomorrow Vision ends next month. Greenpeace and the Liber Research Community published a research report yesterday (16th), saying that nearly 80% of global reclamation projects covering 1,000 hectares or more had been abandoned or left unfinished, and warning that Lantau Tomorrow Vision might not be spared. The Development Bureau issued a thousand-word rebuttal on social media last night, accusing the report of calling for a halt to reclamation solely on the basis of unsuccessful cases and condemning its “scaremongering fallacy” as obstructing Hong Kong’s development. Wong Siu-hung of the Liber Research Community said the team had examined reclamation projects regardless of whether they were successful, stressing that the high rate of unfinished projects was an objective finding of the research. He added that, while the public consultation was still under way, the bureau had nevertheless criticised the team in strong terms, “clearly showing the bureau’s predetermined position”.
造價逾5,800億元的明日大嶼交椅州填海工程，公眾諮詢期下月結束，綠色和平與本土研究社昨（16日）發表研究報告，稱全球面積達千公頃的填海工程爛尾率近八成，預警明日大嶼或不能倖免。發展局昨晚在社交平台發千字文反駁，斥報告僅以不成功案例要求煞停填海，轟「危言聳聽的歪論窒礙香港的發展」。本研社成員黃肇鴻則稱，團隊就「成功與否」的填海項目皆有審視，強調爛尾率高是客觀研究所得的事實，加上公眾諮詢仍在進行，局方卻以強硬言論指責，「清晰顯示局方的前設立場」。

有持續進修基金課程以「移民」作招徠 帳委會強烈建議加國安指引
An Audit Commission report released last November said some Continuing Education Fund courses used an “immigration pathway strategy” as an enticement, which was inconsistent with the purpose of the fund. After completing its deliberations, the Public Accounts Committee held a press conference today. Committee member Eunice Yung of the New People’s Party said the practice contravened the purpose for which the fund was established, and strongly recommended that the Labour and Welfare Bureau add national security guidelines and requirements to its terms.

會議紀要改用「一名議員」 梁君彥：一個月就出到
The Legislative Council Secretariat recently “streamlined” the way committee meeting minutes are prepared, replacing the names of members who spoke with “a member”. A reporter questioned whether this reduced accountability. Legislative Council President Andrew Leung said the previous method of preparing minutes required the consent of the members who had spoken before they could be published, and took about four months. “Now we can produce them within a month, making it convenient for everyone to look them up; it’s not that we only let you look them up four months later.”
立法會秘書處早前「優化」委員會會議紀要的擬備方式，改以「一名議員」代替列出發言議員的名字。有記者質疑降低問責性，立法會主席梁君彥指，早前撰寫會議紀要方式，需獲發言議員同意才可發表，需時約四個月，「宜家我哋一個月就出到，方便所有人類查閱，唔係話四個月之後先俾到你查閱。」

黃偉綸引屈穎妍評論 批公開「唱衰」啟德者損人不利己
The Government’s selection of Kai Tak Sports Avenue as a site for Light Public Housing has prompted strong opposition from private housing residents in the area, leading the Government to mobilise online posts over recent days to “put out the fire”. Following Deputy Secretary for Administration Cheuk Wing-hing, Secretary for Housing Winnie Ho and the Development Bureau, Deputy Financial Secretary Michael Wong Wai-lun also posted today. Citing a commentary by columnist Kuk Wing-yin, he criticised those who continually stoke social conflicts and even publicly “talk down” the value of their own neighbourhood, saying such behaviour was unwise and harmed others as well as themselves. He also said he had recently received encouragement from many people in support of the Government standing by its right choice.
