前高級入境事務助理831太子站被捕 警方結案後遭革職 提覆核指局方無理拒信記錯
A former senior immigration assistant was arrested at Prince Edward station on August 31, 2019. Police closed the case the following year and returned the exhibits. The Civil Service Bureau subsequently launched an internal investigation and dismissed her in May this year. She earlier applied for judicial review, arguing that the bureau unreasonably refused to accept that her memory had been unclear when she gave evidence, causing her to misremember details including the route she had taken.
The case was heard in the High Court on Wednesday (10th). The applicant's side stressed that she had not deliberately concealed anything, but had simply misremembered her journey 18 months earlier. It said that experiencing pregnancy and childbirth, as well as facing heavy pressure, had affected her memory and performance during interviews. The bureau argued that she had been able to give a detailed account of the locations and times of other journeys that day and had clearly come prepared. It therefore concluded that she had deliberately provided misleading information to conceal the facts, and that the decision to dismiss her was not improper. Judge Ko Ho-man adjourned the case until February 13, 2026, for judgment.
一名前高級入境事務助理,2019 年 8 月 31 日在太子站被捕,警方翌年結案並歸還證物。公務員事務局其後展開內部調查,今年 5 月將她革職。她早前提出司法覆核,指局方無理拒納她作供時記憶模糊,以致記錯乘車路線等細節。
案件周三(10 日)於高等法院聆訊,申請方強調她並非刻意隱瞞,只是記錯 18 個月前的行程,而且因經歷懷孕分娩,又承受沉重壓力,影響記憶及會面表現。局方則指,她可仔細交代當日其他行程的地點及時間,明顯有備而來,故最後判斷她刻意提供誤導資料,以隱瞞事實,作出革職決定並無不妥。法官高浩文押後至 2026 年 2 月 13 日頒下判詞。

公務員被要求選舉日到政府大樓派傳單 政務主任:鋪張浪費
The Hong Kong Legislative Council election will be held on 7 December. The government is using every means to boost voter turnout, including widespread invitations to online influencers to make promotional videos, extending polling hours to 16 hours, and setting up dedicated polling stations for civil servants, Hospital Authority healthcare workers and ethnic minorities, as well as outreach polling stations at residential care homes and polling stations near the boundary.
An administrative officer exclusively disclosed to 《棱角》 that the government issued a notice on Tuesday (the 25th), requiring civil servants, apart from those already assigned to work at polling stations, to return to their respective departments and remain on standby on Sunday, polling day. They would also distribute leaflets in nearby communities, repeatedly call colleagues, stakeholders, government-related organisations and even contractors to urge them to vote, and provide support for other election-related work in their departments as needed.
香港立法會選舉將於 12 月 7 日舉行,政府今次出動所有方法推高投票率,除鋪天蓋地邀請網上紅人拍片宣傳外,又將投票時間延長至16個小時,又設公務員專屬票站、醫管局醫護人員專屬票站、少數族裔專屬票站、院舍外展票站,以及鄰近邊境票站等方法。
有政務主任向《棱角》獨家披露,政府周二(25日)發出通知,要求公務員在星期日投票當日,除本來要到票站工作的人員外,需要返回各自所屬部門候命,並在附近社區派傳單,不斷致電同事、持份者、與政府有關聯的機構,甚至外判商等,呼籲他們投票,並隨時支援部門其他選舉有關工作。

李家超函公僕:投票體現效忠特區宣誓 湯家驊信個人選擇不違《守則》 工會:一如既往籲投票
The nomination period for the Legislative Council election is under way. Chief Executive John Lee wrote to civil servants yesterday, urging them to “set an example” by supporting the election. He said voting was a civic responsibility, a “concrete way of demonstrating the oath to uphold the Basic Law and pledge allegiance to the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region”, and “practical action embodying the principles of the Code for Civil Servants”. Asked whether civil servants who did not vote would breach the content of their oath or the Code, Senior Counsel and Executive Council member Ronny Tong said voting was a personal choice. He did not believe it involved betraying the country or the HKSAR, was not concerned that the letter constituted pressure to vote, and believed civil servants understood that its purpose was simply to urge them to vote.
This was the first time since taking office that John Lee had written to civil servants about an election. The letter was more than 1,100 Chinese characters long. It said that, on the fundamental premise of upholding the Basic Law, civil servants should take concrete action by voting to support the Legislative Council election. Citing the Code for Civil Servants, it also said civil servants had a duty to uphold the Constitution and the Basic Law and give full support to the Chief Executive and principal officials, and that voting was an action demonstrating the principles of the Code and support for the HKSAR Government’s administration.
立法會換屆選舉提名期正展開,特首李家超昨日致函公務員,呼籲公務員「以身作則」支持選舉,提到投票是公民責任,是「體現擁護《基本法》、效忠香港特區的宣誓聲明的具體方式」,亦是「體現《公務員守則》的理念的實際行動」。被問到若公務員不投票會否違反宣誓內容或《守則》,資深大律師、行會成員湯家驊說,投票是個人選擇,不相信涉及背叛國家或特區,不擔心構成投票壓力,相信公務員明白致函原意僅呼籲投票。
李家超上任後首次就選舉事宜向公務員發信,信長逾1100字,當中提到公務員在擁護《基本法》的大前提下,應以實際行動,投票支持立法會選舉;並引述《公務員守則》,指公務員有責任擁護《憲法》及《基本法》,全力支持特首及主要官員,投票是彰顯《守則》理念,支持特區施政的行動體現。

公務員問責︱楊何蓓茵稱「唔做唔錯」文化不存在 認現行評核寬鬆:僅僅合格不應獲增薪點
The Legislative Council held a meeting today (29th) to discuss the “department heads’ accountability system” and civil service appraisal reforms proposed in the Policy Address. Several legislators raised concerns about the lengthy investigations into individual civil service cases, mechanisms for pursuing accountability after retirement, and the overly lenient “automatic pay-point progression” system. Secretary for the Civil Service Ingrid Yeung Ho said the new system could speed up investigations and implement accountability at every level, while acknowledging that current appraisals are too lenient and that employees who merely pass should not receive a pay increment.
立法會今日(29 日)舉行舉行會議討論《施政報告》提出的「部門首長制任制」及公務員評核制度改革。多名議員關注公務員個案調查時間過長、退休後追究責任機制,以及「自動跳 point」增薪點制度過於寬鬆等問題。公務員事務局局長楊何蓓茵強調,新制度可加快調查進度並落實層層問責,同時承認現行評核過於寬鬆,僅僅合格的員工不應獲增薪點。

國安附例|「國安公署直接管轄案件」若啟動 鄧炳強:相信不會自動宣布 遇抹黑會出反駁隊
The Legislative Council’s Panel on Security and Panel on Administration of Justice and Legal Services held a joint meeting this afternoon (12th) to discuss the formulation of subsidiary legislation to safeguard national security. Proposals include requiring civil servants and others to provide all assistance if a case is under the jurisdiction of the Office for Safeguarding National Security of the Central People’s Government in the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region under Article 55 of the Hong Kong National Security Law; designating places where the Office performs its duties as prohibited places; and prohibiting anyone from disclosing information relating to the Office’s work. The maximum penalty for contravening the subsidiary legislation would be a fine of $500,000 and seven years’ imprisonment.
Legislative Council member Dominic Lee Tsz-king asked whether there would be a mechanism to announce the procedures after the Office initiated an investigation under Article 55. Secretary for Security Chris Tang Ping-keung said he believed the Office’s investigation would be confidential after an Article 55 investigation was initiated, saying: “I believe it would not be reasonable to automatically announce all the details simply upon making an announcement. Of course, the Office may make any external announcement as necessary, and the law does not stipulate which case it should enforce Article 55 in respect of.”
立法會保安事務委員會、司法及法律事務委員會今(12 日)午召開聯席會議,討論制訂維護國家安全附屬法例,包括建議若案件已由國安公署按《香港國安法》第 55 條管轄,公務員等要提供一切協助;國安公署的履職地方會列為禁地、任何人不可披露與公署相關工作資料等。違反附屬法例的最高刑罰為罰款 50 萬元及監禁七年。
立法會議員李梓敬問及,國安公署若啟動 55 條調查後,會否有機制公布程序?保安局局長鄧炳強回應指,啟動 55 條調查後,相信公署調查有隱密性,「相信唔會一宣布,就自動形式去宣布晒所有細節,我相信唔合乎常理。咁當然公署可以因應需要,對外宣布任何嘢,法例亦無規定佢,就住邊件案執行55(條)」。

國安法附例|先訂立後審議 案件若內地直接管轄 特區公務員需提供一切協助
At the Government’s request, the Legislative Council announced yesterday that a joint meeting of the Security Panel and the Panel on Administration of Justice and Legal Services would be added to today’s (12th) afternoon agenda. The meeting notice was issued less than 24 hours in advance. The Legislative Council uploaded the meeting papers this morning. The Government plans to make subsidiary legislation under Section 110 of the Safeguarding National Security Ordinance concerning the duties of the Office for Safeguarding National Security of the Central People’s Government in the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region. It would be the first piece of subsidiary legislation since the 23 Articles took effect last year.
The Government proposed several amendments to the subsidiary legislation. When the Office exercises jurisdiction over national security cases in three situations, including cases involving external forces, all government departments, bodies and civil servants would be required to provide, upon the Office’s request, all necessary assistance, facilitation, cooperation, support and protection in a timely manner. It would also prohibit anyone who “knows or suspects” that the Office is handling a case from disclosing relevant information, and create offences relating to wilfully resisting or obstructing the Office in performing its duties, or resisting or obstructing others from assisting the Office. The papers state that violators could face a maximum fine of HK$500,000 and seven years’ imprisonment, but the Government did not specify proposed penalties for each piece of subsidiary legislation in the papers. The Government also plans, under Section 42 of the national security ordinance, to designate premises where the Office performs its duties as prohibited places.
The Government said it would finalise the relevant subsidiary legislation and provisions as soon as possible, gazette them promptly, and submit them to the Legislative Council under the “enact first, scrutinise later” procedure. It proposed that the two pieces of subsidiary legislation take effect on the date of gazettal. The authorities also stressed that the subsidiary legislation would not confer new powers on the Office, nor affect the daily lives of ordinary members of the public or the normal operation of institutions and organisations.
立法會應政府要求,昨預告在今日(12日)下午加插保安及司法兩個事務委員會的聯席會議,會議預告在不足 24 小時內發出。立法會今早上載會議文件,政府擬據《維護國家安全條例》第 110 條,就關乎中央國安公署職責,訂立附屬條例,將是 23 條去年生效後首個附屬法例。
政府提多項附屬法例修訂,包括公署在涉境外勢力等三情況下管轄國安案件時,政府任何部門、機關和公務人員須按公署要求,及時提供一切所需和的協助、便利、配合、支持和保障;另禁任何人「知道或懷疑」公署辦理案件下披露相關資料,亦會就蓄意抗拒或妨礙、抗拒或妨礙他人協助公署執行職務訂立罪行。文件指違例者最高罰款 50 萬元及監禁 7 年,但政府在文件未有列明各附屬條例的刑罰建議。政府又將據國安條例第 42 條,列公署履職場所為禁地。
政府指將盡快敲定有關附屬法例及條文,盡快刊憲,提交立法會作「先訂立,後審議」程序,建議兩項附屬法例於刊憲當日實施。當局又強調附屬法例不會賦予公署新權力,亦不會影響一般市民生活,以及機構和組織正常運作。

政府日前(15日)向立法會提交文件,建議修訂《公務人員(管理)命令》及《公務人員(紀律)規例》,文件透露過去五年有逾千公務員因不當行為或刑事罪行而須接受紀律行動和懲處,並提出修訂公務員紀律管理機制。有關修訂主要涉及三大範疇,包括簡化紀律程序、修訂停職安排及配合《國安法》作出的技術修訂。

啟德體育園|6.3 萬人演習 一半是公務員 40 分鐘完成散場 演習總成本多少? 周一鳴:我冇備存喺度
Kai Tak Sports Park, which will open on March 1, held its final large-scale pre-opening drill this afternoon (the 16th), with about 63,000 people taking part. Half of them were civil servants working overtime. Participants dispersed in about 40 minutes, and the process went smoothly, giving the authorities confidence in a successful opening. Asked about the total cost of the multiple drills, Chow Yat-ming, executive director of the inter-departmental exercise working group and Deputy Commissioner of Police (Operations), did not answer directly. He said each civil servant required a HK$100 travel allowance, but added: “I don’t have the overall figure recorded here.”
3 月 1 日開幕的啟德體育園,今(16日)午進行開幕前最後一次大型演習,約 6.3 萬人參與,當中一半是 OT 的公務員。演習人士用了約 40 分鐘散場,過程順利,當局有信心可順利開幕。多次演習的總成本是多少?跨部門演練小組執行長、副警務處長(行動)周一鳴沒直接回答,只表示「每一次公務員,咁需要 100 蚊車馬費」但「整體數字,我冇備存係度」。
