鄧炳強重申黑暴煽動白紙 惟警告後已減退：是成功護國安例子
Secretary for Security Chris Tang earlier said the White Paper protest activities that took place both on the streets and on campuses in Hong Kong were an “embryonic form of a colour revolution”. Meeting reporters in the afternoon, Tang reiterated his earlier remarks, saying that black-clad violence in 2019 had incited participation in the White Paper protests, threatening public order in Hong Kong. However, Tang said the police had so far made no arrests, adding that the situation had declined after warnings and admonitions were issued. He considered this a successful example of the public as a whole combating threats to the security of the country and Hong Kong.
保安局局長鄧炳強早前表示，本港街頭及校園同出現白紙示威活動是「顏色革命雛形」。鄧炳強下午見記者時重申早前說法，指有2019年的「黑暴」煽動參與白紙示威，危害香港治安。但鄧炳強表示，警方至今未有任何拘捕行動，又指在作出警告及勸戒後，相關情況已減退，認為是整體市民打擊危害國家及香港安全的成功例子。

麥美娟指「關愛隊」不受薪無會址 表現不達標可提前解約
One Care Team will be established in each District Council constituency across Hong Kong, with funding of HK$800,000 to HK$1.2 million available during the two-year subsidy period. At a Legislative Council committee meeting, lawmakers asked whether Care Team leaders and deputy leaders would be required to take an oath. Secretary for Home and Youth Mak Mei-kuen said “objective requirements” would be imposed on applicant organisations, including demonstrating that they had previously been patriotic and supportive of Hong Kong. Mak also stressed that the Care Teams would be voluntary in nature and would not receive remuneration, while District Officers could terminate agreements if they considered the services to have fallen short of the required standard. Some lawmakers complained that the funding was too small. Mak said, “It’s not that the Government is providing all the resources for the work,” adding that social resources had to be mobilised to fulfil the concept of “common prosperity”.
全港區議會選區將設立一隊「關愛隊」，在兩年資助期間可獲80至120萬元資助。立法會一個委員會上，有議員關注「關愛隊」隊長及副隊長是否需要宣誓。民青局局長麥美娟指將對申請團體提出「客觀要求」，包括團體要證明過去愛國愛港。麥美娟又強調關愛隊是義工性質，不會有薪酬，民政專員若認為服務不達標更可終止協議。有議員投訴資助太少，麥美娟指「唔係政府畀哂資源做」，尋求社會資源才能符合「共同富裕」理念。

鄧炳強指持BNO港人於外地被捕 中國使領館不會提供協助
The Hong Kong Government does not recognise the BNO passport as a valid travel document or proof of identity. Secretary for Security Chris Tang said at a Legislative Council committee meeting that if Hong Kong people holding BNO passports encountered an incident overseas, such as being arrested, Chinese diplomatic and consular missions abroad would not provide assistance. “They may have to seek help from their own country.” By contrast, foreign domestic helpers holding Hong Kong identity cards, although they are non-local permanent residents, would receive assistance from the Hong Kong Government if they encountered difficulties overseas, in line with the principle of helping where possible, such as the foreign domestic helpers aboard the Diamond Princess when an outbreak occurred in early 2020.
港府不承認 BNO 護照為有效的旅遊證件和身份證明，保安局局長鄧炳強在立法會一個委員會表示，持 BNO 港人若在外地發生事故例如被捕，中國駐外使領館將不會提供協助，「佢可能就要搵返自己國家喇。」而持香港身份證的外傭，雖然是非本地永久居民，但若在外地遇事，港府會本著「幫得就幫」的精神去協助，例如2020年初爆疫的「鑽石公主號」上的外傭。

「18區關愛隊」今月招團遴選 愛國愛港配合政府為首階段要求
One of the new initiatives in the Policy Address is the establishment of “18 District Care Teams”. Legislative Council documents reveal that the Home and Youth Affairs Bureau plans to divide the 18 districts into “sub-districts” according to the boundaries of the District Councils’ ordinary constituencies, with one “Care Team” squad established in each sub-district. Each squad will comprise eight to 12 members, including a captain and a deputy captain. During the two-year funding period, each squad may receive funding of HK$800,000 to HK$1.2 million. The Government plans to establish the first Care Teams in Tsuen Wan and the Southern District in the first quarter of 2023, and will invite organisations to participate in the selection exercise in December this year. Applicant organisations will have to pass a patriotic screening; if they fail to meet the requirements after funding is approved, they may be disqualified and have the funding recovered. +E23
《施政報告》新猷之一是成立「18區關愛隊」，立法會文件透露民政及青年事務局計劃按照全港區議會一般選區分界，將全港18區分成「小區」，每「小區」各設一隊「關愛隊」小隊；每小隊由8至12人組成，每小隊設隊長及副隊長。每小隊在兩年資助期間，可獲80至120萬元資助。政府計劃在2023年第一季先在荃灣及南區先立「關愛隊」，今年12月會邀請團體參加遴選，申請團體要通過愛國審查，若批出資助後不達標可被DQ兼被追款。+E23

湯家驊倡檢討引「外援」律師條例 不覺Tim Owen具無邊法力可起死回生
The SAR Government recently asked the Standing Committee of the National People’s Congress to interpret the National Security Law on whether British King’s Counsel Tim Owen can represent Jimmy Lai. Executive Council member and Senior Counsel Ronny Tong said on a radio programme today (December 3) that he hoped the interpretation would not affect Hong Kong’s common-law system, while acknowledging that it had affected perceptions. He also said the authorities should review the Legal Practitioners Ordinance, noting that Hong Kong has more than 100 Senior Counsel and over 1,000 locally trained barristers. He believed that Hong Kong lawyers familiar with human rights law were plentiful, and said he did not think Tim Owen’s representation of Jimmy Lai would give him “three heads and six arms” or “limitless legal powers”, or even bring the case back to life.
特區政府日前提請人大常委會釋法，就英國御用大律師Tim Owen能否代表黎智英，要求解釋《國安法》。行政會議成員、資深大律師湯家驊今（12月3日）在電台節目上表示，望釋法不會影響本港普通法制度，但承認在觀感上有影響。他又認為當局應審視《法律執業者條例》，指本港有逾百名資深大律師及逾千名本土培育的大律師，相信熟悉人權法的本港律師比比皆是；並稱不覺Tim Owen代表黎智英「會有三頭六臂、無邊法力」，甚至令案件起死回生。

民主黨中委會換屆 羅健熙續任主席
The Democratic Party held its annual general meeting and election of a new Central Committee today. Lo Kin-hei was re-elected chairman. He said the decision to reduce the number of Central Committee members to 10 was not related to the number of candidates, but was because the workload was less than before and fewer people were needed, as well as to reduce the number of people exposed to risks. He also said he could not rule out the Democratic Party facing the same situation as the Civic Party, which is to be wound up and dissolved, but believed that the fact that people in the Democratic Party continued to take on responsibilities and bear pressure was party members’ greatest source of confidence.
民主黨今日舉行周年黨員大會及新一屆中委會選舉，換屆的民主黨主席由羅健熙續任，他指修改中央委員會人數至10人，除了是工作量比以往少而削減人手，亦希望減少承受風險的人數，與參選人數無關。他又提到，不排除民主黨會同樣面臨公民黨將清盤解散的情況，但認為民主黨仍有人繼續承擔職責及承受壓力，是黨友最大信心。
