吳樹培發聲明 對被解僱感愕然、悲憤 未獲申辯機會
The Chinese University of Hong Kong’s Council today passed a resolution to dismiss the university’s Pro-Vice-Chancellor and Secretary, Eric Shu Pui Ng, with immediate effect. In a statement issued tonight, Eric Shu Pui Ng said he was “extremely shocked, aggrieved and saddened” by the decision. He said he had not been invited to participate in the investigation over the past two months and had not been given an opportunity to respond to the allegations. Eric Shu Pui Ng also said the Council’s assertion that he failed to comply with the principles of good university governance was unfair, and expressed deep regret that individual Council members and members of the public had repeatedly made serious, unfounded defamatory statements about him.
中大校董會今日表決通過決議，即時解僱中大副校長及秘書長吳樹培。吳樹培晚上發聲明，稱對決定「感到極大的愕然、悲憤及難過」。他指過去兩個月從未被邀請參與調查，未有機會就指控作申辯。吳樹培亦認為校董會指他不符大學良好管治原則不公，對個別校董及社會人士一再對他作出毫無根據的嚴重誹謗非常遺憾。

中大政政系「重組」獲教務會通過 新學院名無「政治」
CUHK’s Senate approved on Wednesday (6 December) a ‘restructuring’ plan for the Department of Government and Public Administration. The department will no longer appear in the new structure, and its programme will be placed alongside two other programmes in a new College of Government and Policy Science, whose name no longer includes ‘politics’. A CUHK dean told the media that the Senate had ‘unanimously approved’ the establishment of the new college. However, the Senate’s student representative said that ‘concerns’ had been raised at the meeting, and that the position was ‘not opposition to establishing the new college, but on the condition that everything written in the proposal must be implemented’, disputing the claim that it had been ‘unanimously approved’. CUHK told The Stand News that only one student member had raised ‘questions for clarification’ at the meeting. When the chair asked whether members approved the proposal, the response was verbally ‘yes’, and no one expressed opposition; it was therefore regarded as having been ‘unanimously approved’ by the Senate.
中大教務會周三（12月6日）通過政治與行政學系「重組」方案，政政系不再在新架構中出現，該課程將與另外兩個課程置於新學院「政務與政策科學學院」，名稱中不再出現「政治」。中大院長接受傳媒訪問時稱教務會「全票通過」組成新學院，惟教務會學生代表指曾在會上提出「憂慮」，稱其立場為「非反對籌組新學院，但前提是必須確保寫在計劃書上的東西都得以實現」，不認同「全票通過」的說法。中大回覆《獨媒》表示，當日會上只有一名學生成員提出「澄清問題」，會議主席詢問會議成員是否通過有關提案時，獲口頭「是」的回覆，沒有人表明反對，故被視為獲教務會「一致通過」。

中大政政系擬「重組」殺系 關注組促暫緩議案、延長諮詢
The Department of Government and Public Administration at The Chinese University of Hong Kong has been under pressure. Since 2021, the university has pursued a “restructuring” plan to merge it with two other existing programmes to form a new faculty, with the department to be “abolished” and replaced by a programme. The proposal was submitted to CUHK’s Academic Board for discussion today (December 6). Students in the department formed a concern group, whose survey of the views of students and teaching staff found that more than 90% of respondents considered the consultation on the merger inadequate and the plan rushed; only 6.5% supported the merger. The concern group criticised the university for a lack of consultation and transparency, describing it as “paternalistic management”, and demanded that consideration of the proposal be suspended and the consultation extended.
香港中文大學政治與行政學系一直在風口浪尖，校方自2021年開展「重組」計劃，擬與現有另外兩個課程合併成一間新學院，政政系將「殺系」變為一個課程。方案今日（12月6日）呈交中大教務會討論。有政政系學生成立關注組，其師生民意調查結果顯示，逾九成受訪者認為合併諮詢不足及計劃倉卒，僅6.5%受訪者贊成合併。關注組批評校方欠缺諮詢和透明度，屬「家長式管理」，要求暫緩議案，以及延長諮詢等。

審計中大被批評「玩針對」 林智遠：所有機構都會睇
The Audit Commission’s latest report said that 29 of the 33 restaurants on the Chinese University of Hong Kong campus received walk-in customers, contrary to legal requirements. The report could leave people other than teaching staff and students with “no food to eat” on campus, while some also viewed it as targeting CUHK. Legislative Council member Kong Yuk-fun said it had “gone too far” and was out of touch. The Audit Commission issued a media advisory yesterday, inviting the media to cover a visit to elderly people and activities promoting the District Council elections. As expected, its director, Nelson Chi Yuen Lam, responded to the matter proactively, reiterating that the Commission’s principle was to cover all institutions using public funds, and that when auditing an institution as if giving it a health check, “we will look at both major and minor matters.”
審計署最新一份報告，指中大校園33間餐廳有29間接待「街客」，不符法例規定。報告除了或致校園除教職員及學生外「冇飯食」外，亦有聲音認為是針對中大，立法會議員江玉歡亦則指「管過了頭」、離地。審計署昨日發採訪通知，借探訪長者及宣傳區選活動邀傳媒採訪。一如預料，署長林智遠主動回應事件，重申署方的原則是覆蓋所有使用政府公帑的機構，審計如為機構驗身「大事小事我哋都會睇」。

審計報告批中大飯堂接待街客 江玉歡：管過了頭、離地
The Audit Commission issued a report yesterday (29th) stating that none of the 33 restaurants at The Chinese University of Hong Kong had obtained food business licences, and that some restaurants served “outside customers”. Doreen Kong Yuk-fan, a Legislative Council member for the Election Committee constituency, criticised the report today (30th), describing it as having gone too far and being out of touch. She also said audit work should focus on whether public resources were being put to good use or wasted, and that within the Government and public organisations, there were certainly more important issues than outsiders using CUHK canteens and smoking.
審計署昨日（29日）發表報告，指香港中文大學內33間餐廳均沒有領取食物業牌照，並指部份餐廳接待「街客」。選委界立法會議員江玉歡今日（30日）發文批評「管過了頭」及「離地」，又認為審計工作應集中看公共資源有否被善用及浪費，認為在政府及公營機構中，肯定有比中大飯堂有外人使用及吸煙更重要的課題。

中大餐廳經營者感到「玩針對」訪客既入校園「點解唔畀食嘢？」
An Audit Commission report criticised The Chinese University of Hong Kong’s management of its restaurants and bookstore, citing, among other things, restaurants serving people who were not CUHK staff or students, a convenience store selling food without a licence, and the bookstore selling toys. Ms Chan, who operates a restaurant at CUHK, said on a Commercial Radio programme this morning that around 20 to 30 per cent of people on campus were not CUHK staff or students. Restaurant staff had no authority to ask customers to show identification, while the university’s guidelines required restaurants to display notices stating that they served only staff and students. She said security guards were currently stationed at CUHK and people entering the campus had legitimate purposes: “Why can’t they eat after coming in?” A former chair of the CUHK Staff and Students Centre Management Committee said that in early 2019, large numbers of tour groups entered the CUHK campus, making it difficult for many students to have meals. The university had also turned a blind eye at the time.
審計報告批評中文大學對餐廳和書店的管理差，包括指餐廳招待非中大師生、便利店無牌售賣食物、書店出售玩具等。在中大經營餐廳的陳女士今早在商台節目表示，校園內約有兩至三成非中大師生，餐廳職員根本無權要求客人出示身份證明，校方的指引要求餐廳張貼告示提示只招待師生。她認為現時中大有保安把守，進入校園人士都有正當目的，「入得嚟點解唔畀食嘢呢？」曾任中大師生中心管理委員會的主持提及，2019年初曾有大批旅行團殺入中大校園，令不少學生投訴用膳困難，當時校方取態亦是「隻眼開隻眼閉」。

國安審計｜批中大外判書店、食肆等缺護國安指引 建議培訓機構訂投訴機制
The Audit Commission published a new audit report today (29th). Three of its eight chapters mentioned the safeguarding of national security. The report found deficiencies in national security measures under the Innovation and Technology Commission’s Re-industrialisation and Technology Training Programme, as well as in the Chinese University of Hong Kong’s arrangements for facilities managed by external organisations. It recommended that institutions strengthen their measures, including requiring funded training bodies to sign confirmation letters or declarations, establishing complaint mechanisms, and adding clauses allowing contracts to be terminated at any time. The report said the Innovation and Technology Commission and the Vice-Chancellor of the Chinese University of Hong Kong both agreed with the Audit Commission’s recommendations.
The report also disclosed that the Recycling Fund under the Environmental Protection Department had added national security clauses in September 2022. These clauses include allowing the Government to disqualify applicants on grounds such as their having participated in activities that could lead to national security offences, or to terminate agreements.
A review of Audit Commission reports published since the National Security Law came into effect found that national security review content first appeared in October 2022. Including the reports published in March this year and today, three reports covered 24 audited projects or organisations. At least one-third of them—eight funds, non-profit organisations, statutory bodies, libraries, universities and others—were advised by the Audit Commission to strengthen their national security guidelines and measures.
審計署今（29日）發表新一份審計報告，在八個章節中，有三章都提及維護國家安全的內容。報告指出創新科技署的再工業化及科技培訓計劃、以及中文大學對由外間機構管理校園設施，在維護國安措施上有不足。報告建議機構加強措施，包括要求獲資助培訓機構簽確認書或聲明，設投訴機制，及加入可隨時終止合約條款等等。報告引述創科署和中文大學校長，均同意審計署建議。
報告也披露，環保署轄下的回收基金自 2022 年 9 月已增維護國安條款，包括政府能以申請機構曾參與可導致危害國安罪行的活動為由等，剔除申請資格，或可終止協議等。
翻查自國安法實施以來的審計署報告，有關「國安」審查內容始自 2022 年 10 月，計及今年3月份以及今日發表的報告，三份報告涉 24 個被審查的項目或機構中，最少三分一、共 8 個被審計的基金、非牟利機構、法定機構、圖書館、大學等，被署方建議須加強維護國安指引和措施。

審計報告批中大餐廳接待街客 招標文件未有維護國安條款
The Audit Commission published a report saying that the Chinese University of Hong Kong had not properly handled the tendering and monitoring of some campus facilities operated by outside organisations. None of the 33 restaurants on campus had obtained food business licences. After inspections, Audit Commission staff found that 29 of them served “walk-in customers”—people who were not CUHK students or staff—and that three provided food delivery services to locations outside the campus through third-party food delivery platforms. The tender documents and contracts also contained no clauses on safeguarding national security. The commission recommended that CUHK add clauses to its contracts allowing it to disqualify bidders and terminate contracts on national security grounds. CUHK said it agreed with the report’s contents.
審計署發表報告，指中文大學部分外間機構營運的校園設施未有做好招標及監管工作，校園內33間餐廳均沒有領取食物業牌照。署方人員視察後更發現，當中29間均有招待「街客」，即非中大學生或教職員，3間更通過第三方外送食物平台，為校園範圍外的地點提供外送食物服務。而招標文件、合約亦未有維護國家安全的條款，署方建議中大在合約中加入條款，容許以國家安全為由，取消投標者的資格和終止合約，中大表示同意報告內容。

中大畢業禮 有學生以行為藝術籲校方關注學生精神健康
The Chinese University of Hong Kong began holding its graduation ceremonies today, with the events scheduled to take place over three consecutive days. The university wrote to all students yesterday, reminding them to comply at all times with the Honor Code and Student Code of Conduct issued this year, and stressing that it would not tolerate any behaviour disrupting the order of the ceremonies. At today’s ceremony, a student lay down at the Beacon on Million Boulevard to stage a performance art piece, covering themselves with dozens of sheets of white paper bearing messages including “being given a hard time by RES”, “Discipline” and “CUHK not enough psychi”, calling on the university to pay attention to students’ mental health. Separately, two students held up signs reading “The CUHK I hope to see in the future” and “If CUHK disappears… it will no longer be CUHK”, and were taken away by university staff.
中大今起一連三日舉行畢業典禮。校方昨日去信全體學生，提醒需時刻遵守今年發布的《榮譽準則》及《學生行為守則》，強調絕不容許任何干擾大會秩序行為。今日典禮現場，有一名學生在百萬大道「烽火台」躺臥進行行為藝術，並以數十張寫有「被RES為難」、「Discipline」、「中大唔夠psychi」等白紙覆蓋自己，呼籲校方關注學生精神健康。此外，有兩名學生舉起「我希望之後嘅中大」及「如果中大無咗……就再唔係中大」紙牌，被校方帶走。

孫玉菡校友身份崇基畢業禮致辭 指搶人才是「做大個餅」非「爭飯碗」
The Chinese University of Hong Kong held its graduation ceremonies today. Chris Sun Yuk-han, an alumnus of Chung Chi College and Secretary for Labour and Welfare, attended the Chung Chi graduation ceremony as the officiating guest. In his speech, Sun said graduates present might question whether the government’s talent recruitment measures would mean “competing for rice bowls” with them, but stressed that having more people from outside Hong Kong join the city would enable Hong Kong to “make the pie bigger”. Sun also said that having more talent come to Hong Kong to work together could reduce the burden on individuals and make Hong Kong better in the future: “Is it better for one person to bear the burden, or for several people to shoulder it together? Of course, we hope for a larger base to share the burden together.”
香港中文大學今日舉行畢業典禮，其中崇基學院校友、勞工及福利局局長孫玉菡出席崇基畢業典禮，擔任主禮嘉賓。孫玉菡致辭時指，在座畢業生或會質疑政府的「搶人才」措施與自己「爭飯碗」，但強調有更多外來人加入才可讓香港「做大個餅」。孫玉菡又認為，有更多人才來港一起打拼，便可減少個人負擔，使香港未來更好：「一個人負擔好，定係幾個人一齊擔起好？當然係希望大啲嘅基數，一齊去負擔好。」
