II. Questions



1. Hon Christopher CHUNG to ask: (Translation)


Earlier, a Number 3 alarm fire broke out in a commercial/residential building in North Point, causing injuries to over 20 people and, among them, several guesthouse guests were in critical condition. It was reported that as there were a number of licensed and unlicensed guesthouses in that building and the residents and guesthouse guests scrambled for escape during the fire, the capacity of the fire escapes had been exceeded and a chaotic situation resulted. It is learnt that in vetting and approving applications for guesthouse licences, the authorities will not consider the requirements of the Deeds of Mutual Covenant ("DMCs") nor the views of the residents of the buildings concerned. Hence, despite the stipulation in the DMC of the building in the aforesaid incident that operation of guesthouses above the third floor is prohibited and objection raised by the owners' corporation, the authorities still issued licences to a number of guesthouses in the building. There are comments that the fire has exposed the loopholes in the existing guesthouse licensing system and the relevant legislation, and the perfunctory law enforcement against unlicensed guesthouses taken by the authorities. In this connection, will the Government inform this Council:
  • (1)whether it will, in the light of the aforesaid incident, conduct a comprehensive review of the existing guesthouse licensing system and legislation, including the addition of a condition for vetting and approving applications for licences, i.e. the applicant must submit proof that the application is not in violation of the terms in the DMC and the land lease of the building concerned;

    (2)whether it will examine the introduction in the guesthouse licensing system of a mechanism whereby the views of the residents in the buildings concerned on the licence applications will be gauged, and such views and the capacity of the communal facilities of the buildings concerned will be included as factors for consideration in granting licences; and

    (3)whether it has any plan to review and improve the existing policies and measures for combating unlicensed guesthouses, including stepping up efforts in conducting inspections and taking law enforcement actions, and increasing the penalties for the relevant offences so as to enhance the deterrent effect?
Public Officer to reply : Secretary for Home Affairs

2. Hon LEUNG Yiu-chung to ask: (Translation)


Regarding the yearly Hong Kong Marathon, will the Government inform this Council:
  • (1)of the role played by the Government in the 2014 Hong Kong Marathon, and the assistance (including financial subsidy and the number of supporting staff from the various grades) provided to the organizer of the event;

    (2)of the financial and manpower assistance provided by the Government to the Hong Kong Marathon in the past five financial years, and the expenditures incurred; and

    (3)given that quite a number of members of the public could not participate in the Hong Kong Marathon due to over-enrolment in all these years, whether the Government will consider organizing another international marathon, so as to enable more members of the public to participate in marathons and promote sport for all; if it will, of the plan; if not, the reasons for that?
Public Officer to reply : Secretary for Home Affairs

3. Hon LEUNG Kwok-hung to ask: (Translation)


I have received complaints one after another from the tenants of Fung‍ Wo‍ Estate, Kai Ching Estate, Wing Cheong Estate, Cheung Sha Wan Estate and Un Chau Estate Phase 5, who allege that the remunerations provided by the Housing Department ("HD") to outsourced property services agents ("PSAs") of public rental housing ("PRH") estates are so meagre that the PSAs have employed every means to collect fees from tenants who are moving into the estates. For instance, PSAs will not assist those new tenants who have not yet paid the debris removal charges ("DRC") in making move-in arrangements and signing the tenancy agreements. These tenants have relayed to me that as the renovation companies had already passed on to them the waste disposal charges payable under the Waste Disposal Ordinance when they renovated their new homes, the collection of DRC by PSAs was tantamount to double charging, and the rates concerned were also on the high side. In this connection, will the Government inform this Council:
  • (1)of the number of units, the number of tenants who have moved in, the total amount of DRC that the relevant PSA has collected or plans to collect, and the respective rates of DRC payable for small, medium and large units, in each of the aforesaid housing estates;

    (2)as PSAs charge PRH tenants DRC according to the property management contracts signed between PSAs and HD, whether HD gives such authorization in accordance with the legislation; if so, of the relevant legislation; if not, whether HD has allowed PSAs to freely charge new tenants DRC without legal authority; and

    (3)whether it will assist the tenants of the aforesaid housing estates in seeking refunds of DRC from the relevant PSAs; if it will, when it will do so; if not, of the reasons for that?

4. Hon SIN Chung-kai to ask: (Translation)


Article 22(4) of the Basic Law provides that: "[f]or entry into the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region, people from other parts of China must apply for approval. Among them, the number of persons who enter the Region for the purpose of settlement shall be determined by the competent authorities of the Central People's Government after consulting the government of the Region". In this connection, will the Government inform this Council:
  • (1)of the occasions, since the reunification, on which the Central People's Government consulted the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region ("SAR") Government on the number of persons entering the SAR for the purpose of settlement, as well as the views given by the SAR Government on each occasion; whether the SAR Government has taken the initiative to give its views to the Central People's Government in this regard; if it has, of the details; if not, the reasons for that;

    (2)whether there were past cases in which the SAR Government specifically participated in vetting and approving the applications of individual mainlanders for settlement in Hong Kong, and whether the SAR Government had examined the relevant application documents; if so, of the details; if not, the reasons for that; and

    (3)given that the incumbent Chief Executive promised in his election manifesto in 2012 that "reserves unto the government the authority to screen and approve newcomers to our shores", but the Chief Secretary for Administration openly indicated on 24 October 2013 that there was no question of taking back the power of vetting and approving applications for One-way Permit (i.e. Permit for Proceeding to Hong Kong and Macao), how the authorities honour that promise?

5. Hon TANG Ka-piu to ask: (Translation)


Under the existing legislation, an employer is allowed to use the accrued benefits derived from the employer's contributions made to a Mandatory Provident Fund ("MPF") scheme for an employee to offset the severance payment ("SP") or long service payment ("LSP") payable to that employee under the Employment Ordinance ("the offsetting arrangement"). Some employees have pointed out that the offsetting arrangement undermines the interests of employees and deprives them of retirement protection. In this connection, will the Government inform this Council:
  • (1)of the circumstances under which the authorities will abolish the offsetting arrangement; the considerations for deciding whether to abolish the offsetting arrangement in one go or by phases, and whether such factors include the impacts on the administrative costs and average expense ratio of the funds; if so, of the details; and

    (2)whether it will introduce MPF full portability in tandem with the abolition of the offsetting arrangement, and stipulate that the accrued benefits derived from the contributions made by the employers before the abolition of the offsetting arrangement can no longer be used in the offsetting arrangement; if it will, of the details; if not, the reasons for that?

6. Hon Charles Peter MOK to ask: (Translation)


Some journalists from media organizations operating Internet news web sites ("online media") have complained to me that government officers have repeatedly denied their coverage of public activities conducted by government departments, including press conferences, briefings and consultation sessions. Also, the Information Services Department ("ISD") has refused online media's requests for registering with its News and Media Information System on grounds of limited capacity of the System, rendering them unable to receive press notices. They have also pointed out that only representatives from mainstream news media organizations are allowed to apply for Central Government Offices ("CGO") Press Cards. As a result, journalists from online media may not enter CGO to carry out reporting duties. In this connection, will the Government inform this Council:
  • (1)of the number of public activities conducted by the Government last year and, in respect of each activity, the average numbers of (i) people who could be accommodated in the press area(s), (ii) media organizations and their representatives attending the activity, and (iii) online media representatives who were denied access; the justifications of the Government for denying online media representatives' access for coverage of the activities; the qualification requirements for news media to be granted access for coverage of the activities as well as the criteria for granting approval, and whether the Government will review such requirements and criteria; if it will not, of the reasons for that;

    (2)of the maximum number of users that can be supported by the News and Media Information System of ISD as well as the respective numbers of users and media organizations currently registered with the System; the procedure for media organizations to apply for registration with the System and the time required, as well as the relevant expenses of the Government; whether it will upgrade the System to accommodate more users; if it will, of the expenditure involved and the timetable; if not, the reasons for that; and

    (3)given the provision in the media reporting arrangements in the Legislative Council ("LegCo") Complex that if online media representatives can prove that their online news web sites have covered LegCo news or have interviewed LegCo Members, they may apply for Temporary Admission Passes for entering the Complex to carry out reporting duties, whether the Government will make reference to such an arrangement and improve the arrangements for online media representatives to enter CGO for carrying out reporting duties, so as not to hamper press freedom; if it will not, of the reasons for that?

*7. Dr Hon Priscilla LEUNG to ask: (Translation)


The Court of Final Appeal ("CFA") has earlier handed down its judgment on an appeal case, declaring that the requirement of seven-year residence in Hong Kong ("residence requirement") stipulated by the Government for the Comprehensive Social Security Assistance ("CSSA") Scheme was unconstitutional. As a result, the residence requirement must be restored to one year, i.e. the requirement before 1 January 2004. The judgment has aroused extensive discussions in the community and quite a number of members of the public have expressed concern that the shortened residence requirement will attract a large number of mainland people applying for settlement in Hong Kong who may apply for CSSA after one year, thus placing a heavy burden on the welfare expenditure of Hong Kong. In this connection, will the Government inform this Council:
  • (1)whether it has assessed the number of mainland people who will be attracted by the shortened residence requirement for the CSSA Scheme to apply for settlement in Hong Kong, and whether it will introduce measures to deter mainland people from obtaining approval for settlement in Hong Kong through engaging in bogus marriages; if so, of the details; if not, the reasons for that;

    (2)given that the authorities have indicated that there will be an increase in the expenditure on the CSSA Scheme as a result of the shortening of the residence requirement, whether the authorities have plans to introduce targeted measures to ensure the continued stability and healthiness of the public finances of Hong Kong; if they have, of the details; if not, the reasons for that; and

    (3)given that quite a number of members of the public have pointed out that before formulation, public policies of significant public interests such as welfare and population planning have all been thoroughly considered and examined by the Legislative Council and the executive authorities from various aspects such as the long-term interests of Hong Kong, fiscal sustainability, policy objectives and legal principles, etc., and extensive public consultation has often been conducted on them, but once such policies are ruled unconstitutional by CFA, they will become invalid or must be amended, which is a situation these members of the public consider as unsatisfactory, whether the Government has any improvement measures to ensure the stability and predictability of public administration?

*8. Hon Dennis KWOK to ask:


It is learnt that in addition to the statutory compensation scheme under Article 11(5) in Part II (Hong Kong Bill of Rights) of the Hong Kong Bill of Rights Ordinance (Cap. 383), there is a practice of the Government awarding ex gratia payments on moral or compassionate grounds in certain exceptional cases of miscarriage of justice in which the Government is not legally liable. Such cases include but are not limited to those in which the claimant has spent time in custody following a wrongful conviction or charge resulting from serious default by the police or other public authority, notwithstanding the fact that the circumstances offer no grounds for any claim of civil damages. In this connection, will the Government inform this Council:
  • (1)of the respective numbers of applications for ex gratia payments approved and rejected in the past five years; the particulars of those approved cases, including the amount of payments awarded in each case as well as the reasons for some applications being rejected, if any;

    (2)by which agency and with what criteria applications for ex gratia payments are assessed;

    (3)of the number and particulars of the complaints received by the Government in the past five years about rejection of applications for ex gratia payments or about the amounts of payments awarded; and

    (4)whether it has assessed if a conflict of interests may arise on the part of the Secretary for Justice and relevant government departments in the assessment of applications for ex gratia payments; if the assessment outcome is in the affirmative, whether the Government will make reference to the system in the United Kingdom and replace the current arrangement for processing such applications with a statutory scheme under which an independent assessor is appointed to consider the merits of the applications for ex gratia payments and determine the amounts of payments to be awarded; if it will, of the details; if not, the reasons for that?
Public Officer to reply : The Secretary for Justice

*9. Hon Ronny TONG to ask: (Translation)


Some members of the public consider that although the Trade Descriptions (Unfair Trade Practices)(Amendment) Ordinance 2012 (Ordinance No. 25 of 2012)("the Amendment Ordinance") has been in full force since 19 July last year, advertisements alleged to be contravening that Ordinance are still very common at present. For instance, while the game pieces for food offers provided by a fast food chain in its lucky draw campaign were claimed to be applicable to "all extra value meals", such game pieces are in fact not applicable to three set meals of lower prices. In this connection, will the Government inform this Council:
  • (1)whether it knows the numbers of relevant complaints received so far by the Consumer Council and the Customs and Excise Department ("C&ED") respectively, with a breakdown by type of complaints and progress of follow-up actions;

    (2)of the respective numbers of cases of alleged contravention of the Amendment Ordinance so far in respect of which C&ED had (i) instituted prosecutions, and (ii) accepted the undertakings given by the traders concerned that they would cease the unfair commercial practices and decided not to institute prosecutions, with a breakdown by the commercial practice involved;

    (3)whether it has studied if advertisements alleged to be contravening the Amendment Ordinance are prevalent in the market at present; if the study outcome is in the affirmative, of the reasons for that, and whether the reasons include (i) inadequate deterrence because of the small number of prosecutions instituted by C&ED, and (ii) perfunctory law enforcement by the authorities; whether it has plans to strengthen its efforts to combat such kind of advertisements in order to protect consumers' rights and interests; if it has, of the details; if not, the reasons for that; and

    (4)whether it has considered further amending the Trade Descriptions Ordinance (Cap. 362), with a view to protecting consumers' rights and interests more effectively; if it has, of the details and the timetable; if not, the reasons for that?

*10. Hon Starry LEE to ask: (Translation)


Earlier, a fire broke out at Continental Mansion, North Point, causing injuries to a number of residents and guesthouse guests of that commercial/residential building. It is learnt that despite the Deed of Mutual Covenant ("DMC") of the building stipulates that operation of guesthouses above the third floor is prohibited, a number of guesthouses in the building have still been issued licences to operate in contravention of the DMC. On the other hand, there are also a number of guesthouses operating without licences in the building. The Secretary for Home Affairs has indicated earlier that the Government is considering conducting a review on the Hotel and Guesthouse Accommodation Ordinance (Cap. 349) ("the Ordinance") which regulates guesthouses, and is examining issues in this regard, including more effective ways to enforce the law and combat unlicensed guesthouses, as well as the need to tighten up the requirements for issuing licences for guesthouses to operate in commercial/residential buildings. In this connection, will the Government inform this Council:
  • (1)of the timetable and details of the review of the Ordinance;

    (2)whether it will consider setting up a guesthouse licensing committee with reference to the existing model adopted by the Liquor Licensing Board in handling new applications for liquor licences, and requiring applicants to place advertisements in local newspapers to give residents of the affected buildings an opportunity to give their views on the applications concerned to such a committee, so as to ensure that the interests of the residents will be taken into account when the authorities vet and approve applications for guesthouse licences;

    (3)whether it knows, apart from Continental Mansion, the current number of commercial/residential buildings with DMCs containing provisions restricting the establishment of guesthouses, and the distribution of such buildings in the territory;

    (4)of the number of inspections conducted by the Office of the Licensing Authority ("the Office") under the Home Affairs Department for combating unlicensed guesthouses, and the respective numbers of subsequent prosecutions instituted and convictions, in each of the past three years, broken down by District Council district; and

    (5)of the respective numbers of cases of unlicensed guesthouses uncovered by the Office through proactive inspections, posing as clients (commonly known as "snaking") and surfing web sites for booking hotels and accommodations for visitors, in each of the past three years?

It is learnt that in recent years, stray dogs often got injured or even died from struggling when they were being caught by the Agriculture, Fisheries and Conservation Department ("AFCD").

  • (1)of the number of stray dogs which were caught, as well as the respective numbers of dogs which were injured or died while being caught, in each of the past three years;

    (2)of the respective numbers of stray dogs which were euthanized or adopted among the stray dogs caught in each of the past three years; and

In April last year, the Privacy Commissioner for Personal Data published an inspection report in relation to the use of closed-circuit television ("CCTV") systems by the MTR Corporation Limited ("MTRCL") in the public areas of MTR stations and train compartments. The report pointed out that "CCTV-in-operation" notices displayed by MTRCL in train stations and compartments were not conspicuous and provided inadequate information, there were inadequacies in the arrangements for the handling and destroying of footages (e.g. certain footages were actually kept longer than the retention period prescribed by MTRCL), and the sharing of the passwords of the CCTV systems among staff members of the Operations Safety Section heightened the risk of personal data leakage. Regarding the use of CCTV systems by public transport operators, government departments and public organizations in public areas, will the Government inform this Council:
  • (1)whether it knows (i) the respective numbers of CCTV cameras currently installed by MTRCL in the public areas of train stations along MTR lines and the Light Rail ("LR") lines (and the number of train stations concerned respectively), and (ii) the respective numbers of CCTV cameras currently installed in the train compartments of MTR and LR (as well as the respective numbers of train compartments and trains involved); the number of the aforesaid notices displayed by MTRCL and their specific wording, and the number of notices detailing the privacy policies of MTRCL;

    (2)whether it knows the purpose of and criteria for the installation of CCTV systems by MTRCL; of the criteria adopted by MTRCL for determining the locations and angles of CCTV cameras to be installed, and why such cameras have been installed only in some trains and train compartments;

    (3)whether it knows MTRCL's retention period of CCTV footages at present, and the way by which the footages will be deleted afterwards; of the departments to which MTRCL staff who are authorized to inspect the footages belong and their ranks, and whether the resolution of the footages is high enough for the inspectors to recognize the faces of passengers; of the measures taken to ensure the footages are kept strictly confidential, and will not be duplicated, transferred or leaked;

    (4)whether the government representatives on the Board of MTRCL have monitored the implementation of privacy protection policies by MTRCL;

    (5)whether it knows which licensed or franchised public transport operators (including but not limited to companies offering tram, peak tram, bus, light bus and ferry services) have installed CCTV cameras in the public areas of their stops/piers, vehicle compartments, ferry cabins and other passenger facilities; of the guidelines and measures the authorities have put in place to regulate these organizations in terms of the locations of CCTV cameras to be installed, the way of handling footages, as well as the retention of such footages for a reasonable period only; and

    (6)of the number of CCTV cameras installed by government departments and public organizations in the public areas of their facilities, with a breakdown by department/public organization; which departments are responsible for the installation, custody and operation of such cameras, and the retention period of the footages concerned; of the guidelines issued by the authorities to the relevant departments and public organizations regarding the installation of CCTV systems and the proper handling of footages?

It has been learnt that the Government has adopted the mode of "new engineering contract" ("NEC") since 2009 to draw up a number of public works contracts in order to enhance project efficiency and lower the costs. In this connection, will the Government inform this Council:
  • (1)of the number of public works projects awarded by the Government which have adopted NEC (including construction and consultancy contracts) in each year since 2009; the following information of various projects: (i) the government departments involved, (ii) project titles, (iii) project locations, (iv) names of contractors and consultants responsible for the projects, (v) approved project estimates, (vi) actual project expenditures, and (vii) the latest progress of the projects;

    (2)of the criteria and factors of consideration for determining whether NEC is to be adopted for a particular public works project, and whether project price is one of the factors of consideration; the weightings of various criteria and factors of consideration in the decision-making process;

    (3)as some small and medium-sized contractors have criticized that the tendering system of NEC is not conducive to the participation of those contractors with less resources and lacking expertise in bidding for projects, whether the authorities have reviewed the tendering system; if they have, of the review results, as well as the measures to improve the tendering system of NEC in order to make the tendering procedure fairer and enable more small and medium-sized contractors to participate in tendering; if not, whether they will conduct such a review as soon as possible; and

    (4)whether it has conducted reviews on other aspects of NEC, including (i) the funding mechanism, (ii) objectives and (iii) effectiveness; if so, of the review results and the improvement measures proposed, and whether there is any impact on the attitude taken by the Government towards the adoption of NEC; if there is impact, of the details; if it has not conducted any review, of the reasons for that and whether it will conduct such a review in future?

  • (1)of the number of mainland residents with criminal records in Hong Kong or on the Mainland coming to Hong Kong for settlement each year since 1 July 1997, with a breakdown by the offence committed (e.g. bribery, offences related to bogus marriage and the use of forged travel documents);

According to the Government's statistics, there were 91 558 babies born in Hong Kong in 2012, and among them, 4 698 babies were born to mainland women whose spouses were Hong Kong permanent residents (i.e. singly non-permanent resident ("SNR") children), and 26 715 babies were born to mainland women whose spouses were not Hong Kong permanent residents (i.e., doubly non-permanent resident ("DNR") children). There have been comments that although both SNR and DNR children are eligible to use the child health services provided by the Maternal and Child Health Centres ("MCHCs") under the Department of Health, some of them do not use such services probably because they do not reside in Hong Kong. In connection with the services provided to children and women by MCHCs, will the Government inform this Council:
  • (1)of the total number of children receiving services provided by MCHCs at present, with a breakdown by age group and the resident status of their parents in Table 1;

It has been reported that on the Christmas Day just past, five luxurious apartments on Hong Kong Island were found within a period less than two hours to have been burgled, with properties valued over two million dollars in total stolen from four of them. It has also been reported that burglary gangs comprising mainly local people often recruit criminals from the Mainland to come to Hong Kong to commit crimes, because it would still be very easy for the local people, who are the masterminds of the crimes, to escape justice even if such mainland criminals are arrested. Furthermore, such mainland criminals will return to the Mainland immediately after committing crimes and stay away from Hong Kong, making it difficult for the Police to detect such cases. In this connection, will the Government inform this Council:
  • (1)of the number of burglaries of luxurious apartments in the past three years and the number of such cases detected by the Police;

    (2)whether it has assessed the correlation between burglaries at luxurious apartments and the residents there travelling abroad during holidays or their oversight of home security;

    (3)whether the Police have maintained close liaison with the property management companies concerned in respect of anti-theft measures for luxurious apartments and tendered advice on plugging security loopholes; if they have, of the details; if not, the reasons for that;

    (4)as quite a number of luxurious apartments are located at secluded areas, whether the Police have taken specific measures to curb burglaries targeted at such apartments; if they have, of the details; if not, the reasons for that; and

    (5)whether the Police have encountered difficulties in bringing to justice mainlanders who have returned to the Mainland after committing burglaries in Hong Kong; if they have, of the difficulties and whether any solution is in place?

It is learnt that as some of the newly completed government venues (such as Tuen Mun North West Swimming Pool) do not provide for rest rooms, toilets and changing rooms for use by employees of the outsourced service contractors ("contractors"), such employees need to take their meals on staircases and queue up to use public changing rooms. In addition, it has been reported that quite a number of cleansing staff employed by the contractors under the Food and Environmental Hygiene Department ("FEHD"), the Leisure and Cultural Services Department ("LCSD") and the Housing Department ("HD") can take a break beside refuse bins only, need to change their uniforms at home before going to work and are not permitted to use government staff toilets. In this connection, will the Government inform this Council:
  • (1)whether, according to the relevant criteria or guidelines, the authorities are required to reserve space for and build facilities (such as rest rooms, toilets and changing rooms) for use by the contractors' employees when designing government venues; if so, of the details; if not, the reasons for that;

    (2)of the respective current numbers of venues under FEHD, LCSD and HD (including refuse collection points, public toilets, shopping malls in public housing estates, car parks, swimming pools and sports grounds, etc.) with contractors engaged and, among them, the respective numbers of venues provided with rest rooms, changing rooms and water dispensers for use by the contractors' employees; if the venues are not provided with such facilities, of the reasons for that;

    (3)whether it is commonly stipulated in the existing outsourced service contracts that contractors must provide a reasonable and safe working environment for their employees; if so, of the contents of the relevant clauses; if not, whether it will consult the Labour Department ("LD") and include such clauses in the contracts in future; and

    (4)whether LD has any plan to assess the working environment of the contractors' employees to examine if they are working in a reasonable and safe environment; if it has, of the details of the plan; if not, the reasons for that?

2.Regulating mobile radio base stations to protect public health

Hon WONG Kwok-hing to move the following motion:
(Translation)

That in recent years, the number of mobile radio base stations ('mobile base stations') installed by various telecommunications companies on the rooftops and external walls of buildings has substantially increased, and so far more than 32 000 mobile base stations have been installed in Hong Kong; the mobile base stations on quite a number of the rooftops of buildings are very dense, and information shows that 10 or so mobile base stations are installed on the rooftop of a building, with their locations very close to residential settlements, the most serious example being a mobile base station located less than 3 metres from residents' beds, causing residents to be exposed directly to the effects of radiofrequency radiation emitted by the mobile base station, with cases such as infants having abnormal restlessness and wailing, and adults having symptoms of tinnitus, headaches, insomnia and marked deterioration of concentration, etc.; besides, mobile base stations installed on the rooftops of buildings also hinder residents from escape when there is fire and impair building structure; and the practice of the Communications Authority ('CA') not consulting affected residents prior to granting approval to telecommunications companies to install mobile base stations has deprived residents of the right to information and the right to monitoring; in this connection, this Council urges the Government to:

(1)request CA to expeditiously review the vetting and approval procedure for installing mobile base stations to require that CA must consult affected residents beforehand when vetting and approving the relevant new applications or renewal applications, and formulate an implementation timetable for this new procedure;

(2)expeditiously conduct a study on enacting legislation to regulate the installation of mobile base stations, including regulating the distance between mobile base station and residential settlement, the maximum number of mobile base stations installed in each building and the distance between one mobile base station and another, as well as devising a mechanism for handling complaints about mobile base stations, etc., and formulate a legislative timetable;

(3)having regard to the dense buildings and high population density in Hong Kong, conduct a study on setting the non-ionizing radiation limits more stringent than those required by the International Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection, so as to protect public health; and

(4)request CA, the Department of Health and the Buildings Department to compile records and statistics on cases of mobile base stations affecting residents, and provide solutions to the residents who suffer nuisance.

3.Safeguarding editorial independence and autonomy

Hon Alan LEONG to move the following motion:

That the recent post transfer of a veteran and influential journalist by the media organization to which he belongs has once again aroused the concern of society about the impact on freedom of the press and editorial autonomy; a recent opinion poll also indicates that more than half of the respondents consider that the phenomenon of self-censorship exists among Hong Kong news media; and a survey on the credibility of news media conducted by an academic institution even reflects that the credibility of Hong Kong media has hit a record low since the reunification; in this connection, this Council expresses concern and calls on journalists to remain steadfast in their duties, safeguard the principle of editorial independence and autonomy, and continue to give play to the functions of the Fourth Estate.
