立法會Legislative Council立法會CB(2)1218/09-10號文件檔號：CB2/SS/2/09內務委員會文件與移交青山灣入境事務中心的管理有關的附屬法例小組委員會報告目的本文件旨在匯報與移交青山灣入境事務中心的管理有關的附屬法例小組委員會的商議工作。

背景2. 青山灣入境事務中心在2005年投入服務，用以羈留《入境條例》(第115章)所規定須羈留的成年人。

基於入境事務處(下稱"入境處")和懲教署當時的人手狀況，政府當局決定應由懲教署負責管理青山灣入境事務中心至2010年第二季。

入境處會在2010年4月接手管理該中心。

3. 青山灣入境事務中心現時是《監獄令》(第234章，附屬法例B)所指明的"監獄"，而青山灣入境事務中心提供予被羈留者的待遇，須按照《監獄規則》(第234章，附屬法例A)作安排。

為了把青山灣入境事務中心由懲教署移交入境處管理，當局有必要作出多項安排，當中包括使青山灣入境事務中心的運作及管理受《入境(被羈留者的待遇)令》(第115章，附屬法例E) (下稱"待遇令")的賦權及條文所規限，而非受《監獄規則》規限。

附屬法例4. 當局須訂定4項修訂命令，致令青山灣入境事務中心可由懲教署移交入境處管理。

該等修訂命令是⎯⎯(i) 《2010年監獄(修訂)令》；(ii) 《2010年入境(羈留地點)(修訂)令》；(iii) 《2010年入境(被羈留者的待遇)(修訂)令》(下稱"待遇修訂令")；及(iv) 《2010年吸煙(公眾衞生)條例(修訂附表2)令》。

5. 《2010年監獄(修訂)令》修訂《監獄令》的附表，中止青山灣入境事務中心作監獄用途。

《2010年入境(羈留地點)(修訂)令》修訂《入境(羈留地點)令》(第115章，附屬法例B)附表3，指明青山灣入境事務中心成為由於或根據《入境條例》的規定或授權而須予羈留人士的羈留地點，同時刪除該附表中若干已關閉或不再用作羈留違反入境法例的被羈留者的地點。

立法会的名词解释

立法会的名词解释立法会是一个重要的政治机构，也是许多国家的中央立法议会。

它拥有权力制定及修改法律，监督政府，以及代表公民发声。

在不同的国家和地区，立法会有不同的名称和职能，但它们的目标都是为了保障民主和法治。

1. 立法会（Legislative Council）立法会是中国香港特别行政区独特的立法机构，它是根据《基本法》设立的。

立法会是香港特别行政区的最高立法机构，负责审议并通过法律、预算和其他重要议题。

它由70个议席组成，其中40个议席由直选产生，另外30个议席由特定界别和职能组别选出。

香港的立法会有三个主要职能：立法、监察和审核。

在立法方面，立法会的议员可以就各个领域的议题进行辩论，并提出修订法案的建议。

在监察方面，立法会可以调查政府的行政行为，以确保政府的决策是合法和公正的。

审核方面，立法会对政府的预算进行审议和批准。

2. 国会（Parliament）国会是一些国家的立法机构，代表着国家的各个利益团体和公民。

国会在民主制度中扮演着至关重要的角色，它监督政府的行为，通过法律来保证公民的权益。

国会通常分为上下两个议院，如英国议会的上议院和下议院。

国会的权力范围包括立法、财政、监察和代表。

在立法方面，国会的议员可以提出法案，并进行辩论和表决。

财政方面，国会审议并批准政府的预算。

监察方面，国会有权调查政府的行政行为，确保政府合法行事。

代表方面，国会议员是选民的代表，他们通过辩论、提问和建议等方式反映选民的意见。

3. 议会（Parliamentary）议会是许多国家和地区使用的具有立法权力的政治机构。

议会通常由议员组成，他们代表选民和各个政党，平等地参与立法和决策过程。

议会通过辩论和表决来制定法律，并监督政府的行动。

议会制度可以分为不同形式，如单院制和双院制。

在单院制中，议会只有一个立法机构；而在双院制中，议会由两个相互制衡的立法机构组成，通常是上议院和下议院。

议会制度的优势在于能够确保民主决策的多样性和公正性。

Referring to the letter, Mr LAU declared interestsin the following aspects -(a)That his company might provide quantity surveying service to one ofthe companies which had indicated interest in the West KowloonCultural District (WKCD) Development Project (the Project); and(b)That Hong Kong Institute of Architects, Hong Kong Institute ofPlanners, Hong Kong Institute of Surveyors and The Association ofArchitectural Practices Ltd. which belonged to the Architectural,Surveying and Planning Functional Constituency from which he waselected were attending the meeting to present their views on theProject.(Post-meeting note: Mr LAU Ping-cheung's letter was circulated tomembers vide LC Paper No. CB(1)359/03-04(02) on 19 November 2003.)3.Mr Albert HO Chun-yan expressed dissatisfaction that the Chief Secretaryfor Administration (CS for A) and the Secretary for Housing, Planning and Lands(SHPL) had not attended the meeting. In response, the Deputy Secretary forHousing, Planning and Lands (Planning and Lands) (DSHPL(P&L)) explained thatthey were attending the regular Tuesday meeting of the Executive Council, and relayed on their behalf apologies to the Panel. In reply to Mr HO on how the meeting date was decided, the Clerk explained that it was agreed by the Chairmen of the two Panels. They had considered that the present time slot could suit most members of the PLW Panel and the Home Affairs Panel without overlap with other meetings of LegCo.Meeting with deputationsMeeting with the Government Cultural Services Grades' Alliance (GCSGA) (LC Paper No. CB(1)329/03-04(01))4.Mr Gray IP Ga-ri, member of GCSGA, briefed members on GCSGA's submission.Meeting with the Hong Kong Arts Centre (HKAC)(LC Paper No. CB(1)345/03-04(01))5.Mr Louis YU, Executive Director of HKAC, briefed members on HKAC's submission. Apart from the points contained therein, he added the following -(a)That HKAC supported in principle the provision of arts and culturalfacilities with community involvement and resources; and(b)That the blueprint of Hong Kong's cultural development, in particularits future positioning, should be mapped out before taking the Projectforward. This was because the manner in which the Project wouldproceed would have great impact on cultural development in future. Meeting with the Hong Kong Arts Development Council (HKADC)6.Mr Darwin CHEN, Chairman of HKADC, briefed members on HKADC's submission.(Post-meeting note: HKADC's submission was sent to the Secretariat afterthe meeting and circulated to members vide LC Paper No. CB(1)378/03-04 on 20 November 2003.)Meeting with the Hong Kong Christian Service (HKCS)(LC Paper No. CB(1)345/03-04(02))7.Dr Alvin KWOK, Professional Assistant of HKCS, briefed members on HKCS's submission.Meeting with the Hong Kong Curators Association (HKCA)(LC Paper No. CB(1)329/03-04(02))8.Mr HO Kam-chuen, Chairman of HKCA, briefed members on HKCA's submission. He drew members' attention to a typographical error in the Annex, namely, that Hong Kong's population should be "6720" instead of "0.672" as shown in the table. He also explained that members of HKCA were staff working in both public and private museums at the curator grade.Meeting with the Hong Kong Institute of Archaeology (HKI of A)(LC Paper No. CB(1)345/03-04(03))9.Ms LIU Mao, Director of HKI of A, briefed members on HKI of A's submission. She expressed agreement with HKCA's submission and said that the museums to be included in WKCD should include one on Hong Kong's archaeological finds.10.Apart from the points contained in the submission, Ms LIU Mao added the following -(a)All exhibitions and performances to be staged in WKCD should havelocal flavour. To achieve this purpose, relevant training should beprovided as soon as practicable; and(b)Insufficient attention had been given to the archaeological finds fromHong Kong in terms of statutory protection, study and display. Inparticular, it was undesirable that ancestral tombs of the eighteenthand nineteenth centuries were not covered by statutory protection. Meeting with the Hong Kong Institute of Contemporary Culture (HKICC)11.Ms May FUNG, Project Director of HKICC, briefed members on HKICC's views on the Project as follows -(a)The arts and cultural facilities to be included in WKCD had not beenworked out on the basis of a scientific study. In consideration of theimportance of the Project to Hong Kong's cultural development,Government should take time to scientifically ascertain what neededto be included;(b)Apart from the need to work out a marketing plan for the Project,training of both performers and audience should be provided topromote cultural development in Hong Kong under an overall artsand cultural policy;(c)The public should be involved in assessing the Project proposals andmonitoring implementation of the Project; and(d)Arts and cultural education was important but had not been givensufficient attention. The Education and Manpower Bureau shouldplay a role in the Project to ensure its implementation in a holisticmanner.Meeting with Zuni Icosahedron Ltd. (Zuni)12.Mr Mathias WOO, Programme Director of Zuni, briefed members on Zuni's submission. Apart from the points contained therein, he added that the Project was a property development and not an arts and cultural development. He questioned which bureau was responsible for taking forward the Project, and said that an authority should be set up to see the Project through. He further queried whether cost or the promotion of arts and culture was the major consideration when proceeding with the Project.(Post-meeting note: Zuni's submission was sent to the Secretariat after themeeting and circulated to members vide LC Paper No. CB(1)359/03-04(04) on 19 November 2003.)Meeting with Project Hong Kong (PHK)13.Messrs TSUI Hark and MA Ka-fai, representatives of PHK, briefed members on PHK's submission which was tabled at the meeting. Apart from the points contained therein, Mr MA urged the CS for A to honour his undertaking to maintain dialogue with PHK so as to incorporate their views in the Project. He also called upon CS for A to implement the Project with the vision of developing the "WKCD plus" concept promoted by PHK. He highlighted the need for mapping out an overall blueprint for cultural development before proceeding with the Project.(Post-meeting note: PHK's submission was circulated to members vide LCPaper No. CB(1)359/03-04(01) on 19 November 2003.)Meeting with the Hong Kong Institute of Real Estate Administration (HKIREA) (LC Paper No. CB(1)322/03-04(01))14.Mr SO Chun-hin, President of HKIREA, briefed members on HKIREA's submission. Apart from the points contained therein, he stressed the need to divide the Project into smaller packages for tendering so as to reduce risks and maximize returns. He also proposed the establishment of a statutory authority involving the community to develop and operate the arts and cultural facilities in WKCD according to the arts and cultural policy, while developers would be responsible for constructing the facilities only.Meeting with The Association of Architectural Practices Ltd (AAP)(LC Paper No. CB(1)322/03-04(02))15.Mr Dennis LAU, Chairman of AAP, briefed members on AAP's submission. Apart from the points contained therein, he emphasized that the canopy, which was the main feature of the Foster scheme and was adopted as the conceptual basis for WKCD's masterplan, could not comply with the relevant building and fire safety legislation if constructed as designed.Meeting with The Hong Kong Institute of Architects (HKIA)(LC Paper No. CB(1)322/03-04(03))16.Professor Bernard LIM, Chairman of HKIA's Board of Local Affairs, briefed members on HKIA's submission and added the following points -(a)There was insufficient public consultation before the launch of theInvitation for Proposals for the Project on 5 September 2003. As inthe case of redevelopment of the World Trade Centre in New York,the public should be involved in finalizing the design of the Project;(b)The contents of the Project should be carefully worked out beforeconstruction of the physical hardwares; and(c)The Project should be constructed by phases involving multipledevelopers instead of a single developer.17.Mr Vincent NG, Chairman of HKIA's Planning & Lands Committee, supplemented the following -(a)Why should developers take the lead in implementing the Projectwhich was said to be cultural in nature? Why was there no restrictionon the plot ratio of the property development?(b)Why should the Project be exempted from the relevant statutoryplanning procedures and building and fire safety legislation?(c) It had been clearly stated in the terms of the international competitioninviting submissions of concept plans for development of the WKCDsite (the Competition) that the Project would be developed by phases.Why was it changed to the approach of development as a singlepackage? In HKIA's view, this approach was unfair to smalldevelopers and would place Government in an unfavourable positionin negotiation with the successful proponent because Governmentwould be keen to reach agreement with the proponent, otherwise thewhole project would be called off; and(d)It was undesirable that the construction and operation of arts andcultural facilities in WKCD should rest with developers who wereexpected to be profit-oriented and were not familiar with the tasks. Meeting with The Hong Kong Institution of Engineers (HKIE)(LC Paper No. CB(1)329/03-04(03))18.Ir Dr Alex S K CHAN, President of HKIE, briefed members on HKIE's submission. He cautioned that the proposed canopy, probably the largest and highest one in the world, would be difficult to maintain even if it could be constructed. Moreover, it might violate the existing building legislation and would have impact on important facilities such as the West Kowloon ventilation buildings of the Western Harbour Tunnel and the Airport Express, and the Kowloon portal of the Western Harbour Tunnel. However, the impact assessment was not available.19.Addressing Mr MA Fung-kwok's concern on the adverse impact of the canopy on the above-mentioned facilities, Ir Dr Alex CHAN said that he had already raised the issue in a number of forums. He suspected that the reason for the proposed canopy to be as high as 120 metres was to address the issue. Since there was no precedent case overseas, he could not comment on the technical viability. He however felt that it might not be advisable to take such a risk simply for the sake of the provision of a canopy.Meeting with The Hong Kong Institute of Planners (HKIP)(LC Paper No. CB(1)322/03-04(04))20.Mr Roger TANG, Vice-President of HKIP, briefed members on HKIP's submission. To supplement, Mr Kenneth TO, Council Member of HKIP, added that he was concerned about the absence of discussion on the contents of the Project, following the Competition. He had doubt on the bargaining power of the arts and cultural community in negotiation with developers and whether concerted efforts could be made in deciding on the contents of the Project. He emphasized that all parties concerned should be involved before finalization of the physical design of the Project.Meeting with The Hong Kong Institute of Surveyors (HKIS)(LC Paper No. CB(1)345/03-04(04))21.Mr Bernard CHAN, Chairman of HKIS's Town Planning & Development Committee, briefed members on HKIS's submission.Meeting with The Real Estate Developers Association of Hong Kong (REDA) 22.Mr Louis LOONG, Secretary General of REDA, briefed members on REDA's submission.(Post-meeting note: REDA's submission was sent to the Secretariat afterthe meeting and circulated to members vide LC Paper No. CB(1)359/03-04(05) on 19 November 2003.)DeliberationNature of the Project23.Mr Albert CHAN Wai-yip recapitulated his views expressed at the meeting of the Panel on Planning, Lands and Works (the PLW Panel) on 4 July 2003. These included: the Administration should have a policy direction on the cultural development in WKCD and this aspect should not be left entirely to the Project proponents; the facilities to be built in WKCD should tie in with the cultural policy; a statutory authority should be established to independently design, manage and oversee the arts and cultural facilities and funded by income from the Project; and cultural training facilities should be constructed in WKCD. Mr CHAN stressed the need for community participation in finalizing the details of the arts and cultural facilities concerned, and stated that he could not support the Project until the details were available. He was concerned that the development of WKCD might become a property development under the guise of an integrated arts, cultural and entertainment district, resulting in control of Hong Kong's cultural life by developers.24.While agreeing with Mr Albert CHAN that the Project was essentially a property development, Mr Louis LOONG of REDA pointed out that there could be co-operation between the arts and cultural community and the property sector. This was why REDA had proposed to use proceeds from sale of part of the WKCD site to establish a trust fund to finance the construction and operation of the arts and cultural facilities.25.Mr Abraham SHEK Lai-him agreed with some of the deputations that the Project was a property development. He considered the above proposal of REDA viable, and urged the arts and cultural community to grasp the opportunity to promote arts and culture.26.In response, Mr MA Ka-fai of PHK agreed that the arts and cultural sector should strive for enhancement of the local arts and cultural activities. He stressed that they had been working hard in this regard for the past three years but the Government and the Legislative Council (LegCo) did not seem to have given sufficient regard to their views.27.Mr CHAN Shing-wai, Vice Chairman of HKCA, opined that culture and architecture were not necessarily contradictory but could complement each other. In fact, co-operation between the two sectors in a number of overseas cases had produced delightful results. He however pointed out that views in the arts and cultural sector were diverse because of the many sub-sectors involved. As such, consolidation of views was difficult. In his view, if the costs and risks involved inconstructing and operating the different arts and cultural facilities in WKCD could be properly assessed, there could be a win-win situation balancing the needs of both sectors. He hoped there could be an equitable partnership to make the Project successful and becoming a landmark for Hong Kong.Development and operation mode28.Mr James TIEN Pei-chun thanked the deputations for their views. He stated that Members of the Liberal Party had reservation about the single package development approach. He sought views of the representatives from the arts and cultural sector on the appropriate authority for managing and maintaining the arts and cultural facilities in WKCD.29.In response, Mr Louis YU of HKAC opined that the task should involve a tripartite partnership including the arts and cultural sector, Government and the successful proponent for WKCD. Mr MA Ka-fai of PHK said that the mode of operation would depend on the performances contemplated, the political environment and the style of the successful proponent. He shared Mr YU's view on the importance of a tripartite partnership, and said that the right of participation by the arts and cultural sector should be enshrined in the Project. Mr Mathias WOO of Zuni also echoed Mr YU's views, and supplemented that an overall arts and cultural policy should be mapped out before deciding on the operation mode which should take into account both ideals and cost effectiveness. A partnership involving both the community and Government in the form of a trust fund could be explored. As regards museum, he agreed that a museum commission established by Government in conjunction with the successful proponent for WKCD could be considered.30.Mr WONG Sing-chi said that there should be thorough discussion involving the community on the development of WKCD before proceeding with the Project further. In response to Miss CHAN Yuen-han on the mechanism to ensure community involvement in the Project, the deputations made the following points -(a)Mr TSUI Hark of PHK said that to secure the communityinvolvement in and support for the promotion of arts and culture, bothGovernment and the successful proponent for WKCD shouldrecognize the importance for the arts and cultural sector as well as thepublic to work together in the Project and for the public to have a rightto enjoy the facilities and services. As to how the arts and culturalcommunity and the public could participate, this would necessitatedetailed examination. An efficient communication channel in thisregard was necessary. Ideally the arts and cultural facilities to beincluded in WKCD should be decided before proceeding with itsdesign.(b)Ms May FUNG of HKICC said that community participation was amust and a mechanism for that purpose should be established. Artsand cultural practitioners should be involved from planning tomonitoring of the Project.(c)Mr CHAN Shing-wai of HKCA said that to ensure smoothimplementation of the Project, relevant expertise was necessary. Assuch, apart from the arts and cultural sector, it was important that allrelevant professionals as well as the target users should also beinvolved in the Project.(d)Mr Louis YU of HKAC supported the establishment of a mechanismto ensure tripartite co-operation in the Project and commented that themechanism should function not only in management of the facilitiesconcerned but also at the planning and tendering stages. In his view,the establishment of the mechanism was viable given that many artsorganizations and statutory bodies had been actively participating inmapping out the arts and cultural policy for Hong Kong.31.Mr MA Fung-kwok shared the deputations' comments on the need for partnership in deciding on the performances to be staged in WKCD before planning the facilities.Physical design32.Mr WONG Sing-chi was concerned that given the flexibility of the development plot ratio in WKCD, the development intensity of the site might be increased to such an extent as to adversely affect the overall concept plan. Mr LAU Ping-cheung also queried why the maximum plot ratio had not been specified in the IFP. This would make it difficult to assess the proposals as they were not like-to-like comparison. Mr Dennis LAU of AAP echoed their views and considered their concern justified because the plot ratio could be increased from 1.81 to 3.5 or even more.33.Referring to CS for A's reply to the Oral Question asked by Mr James TIEN at the Council meeting on 12 November 2003 that the Administration would not let the Project proceed as a real estate development with second-rate cultural facilities, Mr WONG Sing-chi sought the comments of the representatives from the arts and cultural sector. He also questioned why the sector's views on the contents of the Project were so different from the Government's given that it had been consulted in as early as September 2002. In response, Mr MA Ka-fai of PHK pointed out that whether a facility was first-rate or second-rate was a matter of comparison, and that informal talks could hardly be considered as formal consultation.34.Mr Mathias WOO of Zuni also made the following points on the physical design of WKCD -(a)In deciding on the arts and cultural facilities to be included in WKCD,due regard should be given to the latest world trend and developmentsin Hong Kong's neighbourhood;(b)The arts and cultural sector was of the view that the seating capacityof the main theatre in WKCD should be 500 to 700 seats instead of2,000 seats as proposed by the Administration; and(c)The Foster scheme was an architectural and not planning design. Thecanopy, which might entail operational problems and very highmaintenance cost, should be modified.35.Mr Albert HO opined that the reason why the deputations had so many concerns and queries about the Project was that the Government had failed to conduct overall planning of the Project from users' point of view. He considered that a lot of problems rested with the mandatory requirement to provide the canopy. Mr Abraham SHEK opined that the substantial cost for constructing the canopy could be better utilized for promotion of arts and culture. Echoing their views, Mr Dennis LAU of AAP also cast doubt on whether construction of the canopy would be value for money considering that it was decorative in nature. He also pointed out that because of the need for protection against typhoons, maintenance of the canopy would entail significant problems and extremely high costs.36.In response to Mr James TIEN on technical problems in maintaining the proposed canopy, representatives of the organizations in the building and property sector provided the following views -(a)Professor Bernard LIM of HKIA pointed out that the canopy mighttrap smoke in the event of a fire. As such, the ventilation systemconcerned would need to function very well to reduce the risks. Thecanopy might also produce greenhouse effect, causing adverse impacton the environment. Mitigation measures might have implication onmaintenance and costs. In addition, access to the 120-metre-highcanopy might also pose problems. All these factors called for carefulconsideration of the merits of the canopy.(b)Ir Dr Alex CHAN of HKIE opined that if the canopy was to provideshelter from the rain, the effect of expansion and movement of itsjoints and the resultant high maintenance costs would need to beconsidered.(c)Ir Francis W C KUNG of HKIE said that to ensure good ventilationand acoustics, due regard must be given to the curvature of the canopyand the material to be used. Where maintenance was concerned,accessibility should be an important consideration because this mightpose great difficulty.37.Referring to some deputations' doubt on compliance of the canopy with the relevant building legislation, Mr MA Fung-kwok was concerned that this aspect might not have been made known to the overseas participants in the Competition, and the Foster scheme might not have taken this into consideration. In response, Mr Dennis LAU of AAP reiterated that the canopy would have difficulty in complying with the relevant building and fire safety legislation. Commenting on the Competition, Mr Kenneth TO of HKIP said that the winning entries were chosen by an adjudicating panel of international experts. He queried why the adjudicating panel should have chosen a design which might have difficulty in complying with the relevant legislation.Way forward38.Mr Albert HO Chun-yan stressed the importance of involving all parties concerned in planning and implementation of the Project. He sought the deputations' view on whether the Project should be taken forward in its present form or the WKCD should be replanned taking into account the views of the community and without any prerequisite, such as the Foster scheme. Mr IP Kwok-him also asked the deputations whether the Project should be temporarily shelved to enable detailed examination of the problems identified.39.In response, Mr Mathias WOO of Zuni said that the overall arts and cultural policy should be mapped out before taking forward the Project. This was because the promotion of cultural development might take other more cost-effective forms, for example, by converting Tsim Sha Tsui into a cultural district where a number of arts and cultural facilities were located. Mr Vincent NG of HKIA opined that since so many problems had already emerged at the initial stage, it might be better to call a halt to the Project. LegCo might consider how this could be done to avoid dampening confidence of the general public and foreign investors in Government. Mr Louis YU of HKAC however said that the options of shelving the Project and proceeding with it as scheduled should both be available.40.In response to Mr Albert HO on the establishment of a designated authority to take over the planning, consultation, co-ordination and implementation of the Project, the deputations expressed the following views -(a)Mr Dennis LAU of AAP supported the establishment of a dedicatedauthority to consolidate the views of all parties concerned on thecontents of WKCD before proceeding with the construction of therelevant physical structure.HKIA (b)Professor Bernard LIM of HKIA expressed support for the proposaland cited the successful case of Sydney's Darling Harbour the phased development of which was overseen by a dedicated body. He undertook to provide information on the successful examples.。

立法会 Legislative Council

立法會Legislative CouncilLC Paper No. CB(2)1106/03-04(07) Ref : CB2/PL/EDPanel on EducationBackground paper prepared by Legislative Council SecretariatPlanning and provision of public sector school placesPurposesThis paper provides background information on past deliberations of Members of the Legislative Council (LegCo) on policy issues which are related to or have an impact on the planning and provision of public sector school places. These deliberations mainly include -(a)discussions of the Public Accounts Committee on the Director ofAudit's reports on planning and provision of primary schools andsecondary school places; and(b)relevant discussions of the Panel on Education.Background2.In considering the proposal on the construction of one secondary school and one primary school in Sheung Shui at the meeting of the Public Works Subcommittee (PWSC) on 29 October 2003, some members expressed doubts about the accuracy of the Administration's projections on the demand for secondary school places in the district. They requested the Administration to withdraw the proposal and consult the Panel on Education on its policies for planning and provision of public sector school places. They also requested the Administration to provide detailed information to convince members on the need to provide additional secondary schools in districts, given a projected 16.7% drop of primary students in the years from 2002 to 2010 (Appendix to the Administration's paper entitled "Implementation of whole-day primary schooling" (LC Paper No.CB(2)2401/02-03) refers). In response, the Administration withdrew the proposal and undertook to consult the Panel on Education before resubmitting the proposal to PWSC.Policies on planning and provision of public sector school places3.The Government has a policy to provide nine-year free and universal basic education for every child aged between six and 15 (or completion of secondary three, whichever is earlier). Primary education covers the first six years of free and universal basic education for the young generation to build up knowledge, values and skills for further studies and personal development. Secondary education aims to provide a well-balanced education that will prepare students for further education or for work.Reports of the Director of AuditRelevant reports4.The Director of Audit has examined the planning and provision of primary and secondary school places in the following Reports -(a)Chapter 9 of Report No. 39 on "Planning and provision of primaryschool places": the Audit Report tabled in the Council on 20 November2002 examined the system of planning and providing public sector (i.e.government and aided) primary school places to ascertain whether therewere areas of improvement. The conclusions and recommendations ofthe Public Accounts Committee, as set out in its Report No. 39 whichwas tabled in the Council on 19 February 2003, are in Appendix I.(b)Chapter 7 of Report No. 41 on " Planning and provision of secondaryschool places": the Audit Report was tabled in the Council on26 November 2003. A summary of the findings and recommendationsof the Audit and the response of the Administration is in Appendix II.The Public Accounts Committee is still examining the Report and willpublish its report in February 2004.Primary school education5.According to paragraphs 1.8 and 2.3 of Chapter 9 of the Audit Report No. 39, planning and provision of public sector primary school places are based on the planning standards outlined in the Hong Kong Planning Standards and Guidelines (HKPSG), which specify that one whole-day primary class should be provided for every 32.5 children in the age group of six to 11. The provision is planned on a district basis to prevent children from having to travel a long distance to attend schools in accordance with the principle of vicinity. The projected population of children in the age group of six to 11 in each district is used as a reference for projecting the number of school places required to satisfy future demand. In makingthe projections, EMB will take into account the existing supply of school places in the relevant districts, the school places supplied by private schools, and additional school places from new schools completed under the School Building Programme (SBP).Secondary school education6.EMB has developed a model to project the future supply and demand for public secondary school places. The methodology for projecting the supply and demand and the latest projection of the supply and demand for public secondary school places in 2002 are detailed in paragraph 5.4 to 5.8 of Chapter 7 of the Director of Audit’s Report No. 41 (Appendix III). According to its projection made in 2002 covering the period from 2003 to 2012, EMB estimated that the supply of public secondary school places will be insufficient to meet the demand between 2003 and 2009. To meet the expected shortfall, EMB has planned to build 34 new secondary schools by 2008 to meet the projected demand. However, the supply will exceed the demand from 2010.Deliberations of the Panel on Education7.The Panel has not discussed the subject of "Planning and provision of public sector school places" since the first term of the Legislative Council, but has discussed a number of policy issues that are related to or have impact on the subject. A summary of the issues discussed are in paragraphs 8 to 36 -Improving student-teacher ratio in primary and secondary schools8.At the meeting on 18 January 1999, members in general expressed support for reducing the class sizes in public sector schools in order to improve the quality of school education. They urged the Administration to set out the policies and timetable on reduction of class sizes in primary and secondary schools. Given the class sizes of 37 and 40 in primary and secondary schools respectively, members also expressed concern about the heavy workload of teachers, particularly those teaching in schools with more band five students who might have certain learning difficulties or behavioural problems.9.The Administration responded that according to research studies in western countries, there was no definite conclusion about the most appropriate class sizes for schools. Generally, Asian students were learning in larger class sizes than their western counterparts, but students in some Asian countries had demonstrated overall satisfactory academic achievements. It was also commonly accepted that a smaller class size for primary education would be beneficial to younger children, and a marginal adjustment in secondary school class size would make little difference in enhancing students' academic achievements. Given the resources constraint and a shortage of suitable sites for construction of new schools, the Administration had given priority to implementation of whole-day primary schooling (WDPS). WhenWDPS was implemented in all primary schools, resources could be re-deployed to reduce class sizes in primary and secondary schools. As regards reducing teachers' workload in schools, particularly schools with more band five students, the Administration advised that it had taken a number of improvement initiatives, including provision of additional permanent and part time teachers, simplification of administrative procedures, utilization of Internet and community facilities, to reduce teachers' workload.Allocation of land for school development10.At the meeting on 30 March 1999, members noted the collaborative efforts between the Education Department and the Planning Department (PD) in the process of reserving school sites and the broad parameters in HKPSG for reservation of school sites as detailed in the Administration's paper (LC Paper No.CB(2) 1582/98-99(03) refers). According to the paper, planning and reservation of school sites was based on the forecast population growth and distribution in the 18 districts provided by the Census and Statistics Department and the Housing Department, the provisions of HKPSG, and the prevailing education policies such as WDPS. PD, in preparing town plans and designing comprehensive development projects, would reserve sites on the basis of the size and needs for community services in accordance with HKPSG. In assessing the requirement of school provision, PD would consult EMB on the needs for educational facilities and the latest forecast demand and supply of school places in the relevant districts or areas.11.Some members had enquired about the criteria and priority for allocation of sites for construction of schools. The Administration replied that given the scarcity of land resources in Hong Kong, PD had to balance the competing demands for housing, education, transport, commerce, welfare, recreation and other community needs. Nevertheless, development plans could always be adjusted in response to new policies and changes in population and its distribution.12.Some members expressed support for the construction of "school estates" to accommodate a cluster of primary and secondary schools in new towns and developments to share a more spacious environment and better facilities. They stressed the importance of a well-planned infrastructure in support of the operation of "school estates" as well as the provision of standard facilities and space entitlement to the schools in clusters. They considered that the construction of more "school estates" would improve the learning environment in schools in the face of a limited supply of suitable sites in urban areas, and the relocation of existing secondary schools to "school estates" would make available suitable sites for construction of new primary schools.13.The Administration pointed out that a host of problems would have to be resolved for the establishment of appropriate infrastructure in support of the operation of a "school estate" in a new development or town. These included the transport network, community services, catering services, environmental impacts onsurrounding areas and local residents. In addition, some social workers and planning experts pointed out that there could be social problems and law and order issues arising from the operation of a large number of clustered schools. Furthermore, the arrangements for cost-effective use of the common school facilities and the intention of sponsoring bodies to operate schools in "school estates" should also be explored.Reservation of school sites14.The Panel discussed issues related to reservation of school sites at its meetings on 18 December 2000, 15 January 2001 and 20 January 2003.Meeting on 18 December 200015.Members urged the Administration to reserve adequate sites for development of schools and expedite the development work of the reserved sites for construction of new schools to fulfil its policy commitments in education. They requested the Administration to provide details of some 234 sites reserved for school development and elaborate on the factors affecting their availability.16.The Administration pointed out that the majority of the reserved sites were intended to serve long term population growth, and their availability would have to tie in with site preparation and infrastructure works to match population in-take in individual districts. Depending on the location and the availability of infra-structural facilities, development of schools on these reserved sites could incur substantial public expenditure and giving the priority in allocation of the necessary resources would have to be supported by the community as a whole. In addition, the capacity of the Public Works Programme in accommodation of a large number of school development projects, the will of parents and students affected by in-situ redevelopment of schools, the support of relevant District Councils were other important factors impacting on the implementation of school development projects. Meeting on 15 January 200117.Members noted the details of the 234 reserved sites and the factors affecting their availability as provided in LC Paper No.CB(2)666/00-01(01). Some members considered that priority should be given to allocation of sites for school development since education was paramount to the future development of Hong Kong, and sites allocated for other purposes but had not been utilized for a long time should be re-zoned for school development.18.The Administration explained that PD and the Town Planing Board would consider re-zoning sites reserved for other purposes but had not been developed or redeveloped for a long time for school development. The Administration would also consider converting industrial and commercial buildings into temporary college premises if they were not cost-effectively deployed for the intended purposes.19.Some members urged the Administration to ensure effective co-ordination of departmental efforts to review sites for re-zoning purposes, identify vacant land adjacent to or close to schools not suitable for carrying out improvement works and consider constructing more "school estates" in new towns and developments. They pointed out that many sites reserved for departmental use were left undeveloped for years.20.The Administration responded that an internal monitoring mechanism was in place to ensure effective use of land resources. Under the mechanism, departments would be required to provide explanations on reserved sites which had not been developed three years after allocation. In addition, the Administration would also explore the feasibility of establishing an inter-departmental mechanism on school development projects.Meeting on 20 January 200321.Members were briefed on the work progress on provision of adequate school places to meet demand arising from population change in different districts, implementation of WDPS, and development of more senior secondary schools, DSS schools and private independent schools. Members also noted the Administration's plan to close high cost schools, provide more post-secondary places and re-provision and re-develop some 429 existing schools which were built more than 30 years ago and/or of a site area less than 3 000 square metre.22.Members urged the Administration to review the demand and supply of school sites in the light of the decline of student population in the next few years, and plan the schedule for re-provisioning and re-development of the 429 sub-standard schools. The Chairman also suggested that the Administration should take the opportunity to implement small class teaching in public estates and districts where the student population had significantly decreased to promote quality of education and reduce surplus of teachers in schools.23.The Administration responded that it would take into account the latest population forecast in deciding which school development projects should proceed for the committed education objectives. The Administration would continue to monitor the pace of development of the reserved school sites to ensure their availability to meet the demand for additional school places arising from various factors including population growth and WDPS by 2007 and an expanded senior secondary school sector by 2003.Whole-day primary schooling24.The Government announced in the 1997 Policy Address that the Administration aimed to provide 60% and 100% of primary school students with whole-day schooling by 2002 and 2007 respectively, subject to supply of sufficientschool sites in individual districts and possible changes in population growth and distribution. The Administration had achieved the interim target of 60% WDPS through the construction of 78 new schools between 1998 and 2002, making use of vacant school premises, building additional classrooms/extension blocks, redeveloping existing school premises, and merging the morning and afternoon sessions of bi-sessional schools. To achieve the long-term goal of 100% WDPS, the Administration planned to build another 51 new schools between 2002 and 2007, having regard to the population projection and distribution, parental choice, popularity of school and the physical condition of existing schools.25.As at June 2003, 170 school premises were still operating in bi-sessional mode. Of these 170 schools, 103 schools had agreed to a conversion plan for switching to operate on a whole-day mode. The Administration would continue to liaise with the remaining 67 schools for a feasible conversion plan by allocation of new or vacant premises, merging of their morning and afternoon sessions, or other methods.26.At the Panel meeting on 16 June 2003, members urged the Administration to work out feasible conversion plans for the remaining 67 bi-sessional schools to operate on a whole-day mode. They also requested the Administration to conduct a comprehensive review on WDPS with the aims of improving the provision of WDPS and the quality of primary education. They considered that the review should identify the good practices in scheduling of primary classes, organization of extra-curricular activities within and beyond school hours, re-design of school curriculum, etc; and evaluate how whole-day schools had made use of the longer school hours to foster an all-round development of students.27.The Administration responded that in general schools operating on a whole-day mode enjoyed more flexibility in scheduling classes and their students had more time to interact with fellow classmates and teachers. The Administration would disseminate the good practices adopted by some schools to other schools for reference and adaptation. Under the education reform, all schools should move towards providing an all-round education to students. With longer school hours, whole-day primary schools were encouraged to organize various academic and non-academic activities for their students.Small class teachingOral question raised by Hon SZETO Wah28.In response to Hon SZETO Wah's oral question raised at the Council meeting on 13 November 2002, SEM replied that a study on small class teaching would be conducted in 30 to 40 public sector primary schools from the 2003-04 school year. The participating schools would try out the class size of about 20 students at junior primary levels and relevant professional training and support would be provided to the teachers as appropriate. The Panel subsequently discussed the issue at its meetings on 18 November 2002, 19 May and 16 June 2003.Meeting on 18 November 200229.In briefing the Panel on the key issues on the education agenda for 2002-03, SEM informed the Panel that the Administration would conduct a longitudinal study on the impact of teaching in small classes from the 2003-04 school year in order to find out the necessary pre-conditions and teaching strategies that would maximize the benefit of small class teaching.30.Some members expressed reservations about the need to conduct the longitudinal study since the benefits of small class teaching were apparent, and all teachers would support its implementation as it would definitely facilitate class management and improve student-teacher interactions in a class room setting. Some members also queried whether it was worthwhile to conduct the case studies, given that most education researches had failed to provide conclusive evidence for policy formulation purpose. Some other members expressed concern about the huge costs incurred for the implementation of small class teaching, and considered that other initiatives, such as reducing the student-teacher ratio, could also improve the quality of education.31.The Administration explained that in view of the substantial resources required for implementing small class teaching in public sector primary schools, it needed to conduct a longitudinal study in selected primary schools to find out the relationship between small class teaching and its effectiveness on teaching and learning. The longitudinal study would be designed to help determine the optimal class size for primary education and identify the role and functions of teachers in teaching and learning in both small and regular classes for formulation of long term policies and strategies in primary education. The Administration also pointed out that that the current student-teacher ratio of 20.8:1 was comparable to those of the western countries. The establishment of a long term policy on reduction of class size would require corresponding changes to the pedagogy, should be based on solid evidence of positive learning outcome, and would be subject to the availability of resources.32.Some members suggested that the Administration should consider maintaining the education allocation to primary schools at the current level and allow them to operate smaller classes in case their student intake decreased as a result of a declining student population. They considered that the Administration should consult frontline teachers on the merits of small class teaching rather than relying on the results of a longitudinal study. Given the huge costs incurred for implementation of small class teaching in all public sector primary schools, the decline of primary student population in some old districts provided a golden opportunity for progressive implementation of small class teaching in certain primary schools.Meetings on 19 May and 16 June 200333.The Administration briefed the Panel on a proposed study on effective strategies of class and group teaching in primary schools, the main objective of which was to identify the good practices in small class and variable group teaching for dissemination to and adaptation by other schools for enhancing learning effectiveness.34.Some members considered that the proposed study was in essence different from the proposed longitudinal study since variable class size and group teaching strategies did not mean a reduction in class size but only flexible adjustment of class sizes to suit different learning and teaching activities in selected primary schools. They considered that small class teaching would certainly enhance the quality of teaching and learning in primary schools. They urged the Administration to take the opportunity to implement small class teaching in schools located at districts where the student population had significantly decreased.35.SEM explained that the proposed study on effective strategies of class and group teaching had taken into account the concerns of LegCo Members and the views of academics in the field. While all public sector primary schools were provided with similar level of resources, some schools had managed to practise variable class size and group teaching strategies to enhance learning effectiveness. The Administration would identify the good practices in small class and variable group teaching in public sector primary schools for dissemination to and adaptation by other schools for enhancing learning effectiveness in six months. Subject to availability of resources, the Administration would consider increasing the number of primary schools to be invited to take part in the study. The Administration would conduct an interim review of the study and might adjust the implementation plan in the light of the findings of the review, and published a final evaluation report by end-2006.36.Members raised no objection to the Administration’s plan to identify the existing good practices in small class and variable group teaching in six months. Some members, however, considered it unacceptable that the evaluation report on the study could only be available by end-2006. They urged the Administration to invite more interested sponsoring bodies to participate in the study with details on the support measures and resources provided. The Administration agreed to brief members on the strategies and practices which had been evaluated and identified as effective for implementing small class teaching in primary schools in six months. Other background informationWritten question on "School Planning" at Council meeting on 26 November 200337.Hon CHEUNG Man-kwong raised a written question on school planning at the Council meeting on 26 November 2003. In his reply to the written question, SEMexplained that SBP is planned on the basis of established policies and objectives, and can be adjusted in the light of a number of reasons. He also explained that reduction in the number of classes in individual districts might be related to the supply and demand of school places as well as parental preference. However, such reduction did not necessarily obviate the need to construct new schools in individual districts since SBP was drawn up to achieve various objectives in education. A copy of Hon CHEUNG Man-kwong's question and SEM's response is in Appendix IV.Motion debate on "Education Policy" at Council meeting on 5 December 200338.Hon CHEUNG Man-kwong moved the following motion for debate at the Council meeting on 5 December 2003 -"That this Council opposes the Government's reduction in spending on education, and urges the Government to implement small-class teaching in primary and secondary schools by phases, adopt the four-year normative undergraduate structure as early as possible, and provide funding support for existing associate degree programmes run by universities, so as to provide students with quality education and nurture future talents for Hong Kong". The motion was negatived. SEM's speech made at the debate in response to members' views and concerns is in Appendix V.Other relevant documents39.Apart from the documents attached to this paper, members may wish to refer to the minutes of the relevant meetings and papers provided by the Administration as set out in Appendix VI.Soft copies of these documents are available at the website of the Legislative Council at .hk.Council Business Division 2Legislative Council Secretariat28 January 2004。

She added that the quorum of a meeting of the Panel was six members.I.Confirmation of minutes[LC Paper No. CB(2)984/99-00]2.The minutes of the meeting held on 8 November 1999 were confirmed.rmation paper issued since the last meeting[LC Paper No. CB(2)871/99-00]3.Members noted that since the last meeting on 10 January 2000, LC PaperNo. CB(2)871/99-00 was issued. The paper was the Administration's response to Members' views expressed at the special meeting on 7 December 1999 regarding the operation of section 17(1)(b) of the Building Management Ordinance (Cap 344).III.Items for discussion at the next meeting[Appendix I to LC Paper No. CB(2)1034/99-00]4.Members agreed to discuss the following items at the next regular meeting scheduled for 4:30 pm on Monday, 13 March 2000 -(a)Follow-up on the Concluding Observations made by the UnitedNations Human Rights Committee after its hearing on the Reportof the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region (HKSAR) underthe International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights;(b)Report of the HKSAR under the Convention Against Torture andOther Cruel, Inhuman or Degrading Treatment or Punishment.Members further agreed that non-government organizations should be invited to forward submissions and also send representatives to attend the meeting for the respective items.5.Members also agreed that representatives of the new Leisure and Cultural Services Department be invited to give a briefing on its work to the Panel at the regular meeting in April 2000.IV.Development and improvement of rural areas[Paper No. CB(2)835/99-00(01)]6.The Chairman welcomed representatives of the Administration to the meeting.7.Assistant Director of Home Affairs (2) (AD(2)/HA) said that the paper set out the basic planning, development and improvement framework within the New Territories. The paper also explained how the framework worked in practice using a number of actual development projects in Tuen Mun as examples because the original enquiry into this subject came from the Tuen Mun Provisional District Board (TMPDB).8.Referring to paragraph 5 of the paper, Mr LEE Wing-tat asked whether all the projects under the Rural Planning and Improvement Strategy (RPIS) programme would be completed by 31 March 2000, and whether a "roll forward" plan would be in place for the continued development and improvement of the rural areas.9.AD(2)/HA replied that the RPIS programme was due to finish on 31 March 2000. As there was a continuing need to carry on with minor environmental and infrastructural improvements in the rural areas, the Administration had proposed that the work would be carried forward under aRural Public Works (RPW) Programme. AD(2)/HA further informed members that the RPW Programme was initiated in April 1999 and necessary funding would be provided on a year-by-year basis.10.The Chairman commented that judging from the little information contained in the paper, it seemed that not much was done. She asked whether the Administration could give a more comprehensive account of what was achieved during the ten years of the RPIS programme. Principal Assistant Secretary for Home Affairs (4) (PAS(HA)4) explained that the purpose of the paper was to inform members of the framework of planning, development and improvement of the rural areas and also respond to the issues of concern raised by TMPDB at a meeting with LegCo Members in January 1999. The paper was not intended to give a full account of the RPIS projects carried out during the ten-year period of the programme.11.The Chairman drew the Administration's attention to a comment made by the TMPDB that the pace of rural improvement in Tuen Mun had been too slow and lacked overall planning. She enquired what proportion of the total RPIS projects did those in Tuen Mun constituted.12.AD(2)/HA reiterated the point made by PAS(HA)4 earlier that selected RPIS projects in Tuen Mun were covered in the paper because the Administration was asked to respond to certain comments and complaints raised by TMPDB. AD(2)/HA added that the Tuen Mun projects cited served as useful examples of how the framework of planning, development and improvement worked. He informed the Panel that the total amount earmarked for the RPIS minor works projects over the ten-year period was $1.6 billion. Initially, progress was rather slow and there was no effective mechanism to consult the local people on the projects. It was only after 1994 when the Home Affairs Department (HAD) took over the programme that it moved forward swiftly. AD(2)/HA pointed out that most of the projects of the ten-year programme were carried out within the last five years. He attributed this achievement to the two-tier consultative mechanism set up to closely involve the local communities within the rural areas. The framework comprised -(a) a Central Steering Committee with the Director of Home Affairsas the chairman and members comprising District Board Chairmen,Heung Yee Kuk representatives, and representatives from majorGovernment departments; and(b) a District Working Group for each of the nine New Territoriesdistricts with the District Officer as chairman and memberscomprising the District Board Chairman, Rural CommitteeChairmen, etc.13.AD(2)/HA reiterated that minor rural improvement works would now be carried forward under the RPW Programme. HAD would make use of the same mechanism to ensure that the current consultation process both at the central and district levels was also carried forward.14.The Chairman said that TMPDB members expressed concerns about conflicts over land boundaries and blockage of access roads to villages. AD(2)/HA informed members that there had been suggestions to conduct a comprehensive land boundary survey in the New Territories from the Survey and Mapping Office of the lands Department and some of the Members of the Cadastral Survey Consultative Committee. Assistant Secretary for Planning and Lands (Planning) added that the Planning and Lands Bureau was looking into the proposal in consultation with the Survey and Mapping Office.15.The Chairman enquired what the Administration's overall plan was given that the ten-year RPIS programme was about to end but the issue of land boundaries was still being studied. AD(2)/HA gave assurance that with the existing consultative mechanism, HAD was able to effectively consult the local people. Also, whenever there were problems such as problems relating to land boundaries, HAD could discuss the problems with local people and also request the relevant Government departments to assist. AD(2)/HA pointed out that HAD had been quite successful in handling complaints and overcoming difficulties relating to land boundaries. AD(2)/HA added that any general review of the land boundaries would not affect the RPW Programme, as improvement works were dealt with on a project-by-project basis, and HAD had so far been able to overcome difficulties as they arose.16.Referring to the housing site in Area 54 mentioned in the paper, the Deputy Chairman asked whether the indigenous villagers were required to surrender their land. He further asked the Administration to explain the negotiation process involved, and the options presented to the villagers to secure their cooperation in this project, and other projects of similar scale in other districts. The Deputy Chairman also commented that the project seemed to be a redevelopment project as the improvement of flooding black spots, the building of new roads, and other smaller scale construction works were also dealt with at the same time.17.District Officer (Tuen Mun) (DO(TM)) explained that the housing sites to be formed in Area 54 fell next to rather than encroached upon the five villages named in the paper. The question of existing dwellers having to move out in a wholesale manner therefore did not arise. He stressed that, in mapping out the housing sites, the Administration had taken care to ensure that the land formation works to be pursued by TDD would not aggravate the flooding problem which affected some locations in Area 54. Pending commencement of TDD's land formation contract, some improvement works to two existing stream courses had been planned under the RPIS Minor Works Programme as an interim flood-reliefmeasure. Longer term improvements to the drainage system would form part of the Area 54 housing development proposals managed by TDD. The whole package (together with the construction of new roads and other related works) was presented to villagers in the first half of 1999. In August 1999, the Tuen Mun District Board and the Tuen Mun Rural Committee were satisfied that local concerns about the possible adverse impact of the housing development proposals had by and large been addressed. DO(TM) added that the necessary funding for the housing development proposals (and the ancillary drainage and road works) would come from the budget for land development rather than be charged to the RPIS or RPW programmes.V.Resumption of private streets[Paper No. CB(2)1034/99-00(01), Paper No. CB(2)835/99-00(02) and Paper No. CB(2)835/99-00(03)]18.The Chairman welcomed representatives of the Administration to the meeting. She added that the matter was raised by the Eastern Provisional District Board (EPDB) and the Kowloon City Provisional District Board (KCPDB) at their respective meetings with Members.19.Referring Members to the Administration's paper [Paper No. CB(2)1034/99-00(01)], AD(2)/HA explained that the Private Street Resumption Programme was implemented in 1986 for the resumption and repair of those private streets which were in poor conditions. AD(2)/HA said that there were many thousands of private streets in Hong Kong most of which were well looked after. The ones that required Government's attention were located in the older urban areas which, through traditions and regular use by pedestrians, had become public thoroughfares. The worst cases had been dealt with fairly quickly, and Government aimed to clear the remaining ones under a residual programme. AD(2)/HA added that over the last four years, District Officers had been asked to identify whether there were any other private streets which were in poor conditions but they all gave a nil return.20.AD(2)/HA further explained that 75 private streets had to be deleted from the resumption programme due to a number of problems encountered. The major problem was related to the question of compensation. It was Government's policy that a private street would only be resumed if no foreseeable compensation needed to be paid out. In cases where HAD had identified legitimate claims for compensation, the private streets concerned would be deleted from the resumption programme. For instance, if the eight Wan streets in Kowloon City were resumed, they could no longer be used for normal vehicular traffic except for pedestrians and emergency vehicular access. The loss of regular vehicular access that the owners or occupiers of abutting premises used to enjoy would constitute a valid claim for compensation.21.AD(2)/HA informed Members that another category of private streets that Government had to delete from the resumption programme was those with protruding balconies. Property owners who maintained their balconies after resumption would constitute trespass under the law. However, to issue each owner with a licence to confirm the legality of these balconies was not feasible given the considerable staff resources involved. Government had therefore come to the conclusion that streets with overhanging balconies had to be deleted from the resumption programme.22.AD(2)/HA added that there were at present 22 streets to be resumed/repaired, and they would continue to be dealt with under Lands Department's quota of allocating staff resources for resumption/clearance of four streets at any one time.23.Referring to the minutes of Members' earlier meetings with EPDB and KCPDB [Papers No. CB(2) 835/99-00(02) and CB(2) 835/99-00(03)], the Chairman asked if the 18 private streets in the two districts were among the 22 mentioned by AD(2)/HA. AD(2)/HA replied that the 18 streets in the two districts were deleted due to various reasons as explained in the previous paragraphs, whereas the 22 streets were outstanding ones pending review for compensation implications by the Lands Department. In fact, the main problem with the 8 Wan streets in Kowloon City arose from the narrowness of the streets rendering them unsuitable for normal vehicular access after resumption. Moreover, as some occupants of premises in the streets at present carried out car repair and other businesses, they were reluctant to give up their title and they had a legitimate claim for compensation due to loss of business after resumption. Government therefore would not proceed with resumption. He had since held meetings with the relevant Government departments to see what could be done to improve the conditions in these streets on a case-by-case basis. The situation in the Eastern District was similar in that the streets were deleted due to the protruding balconies problem.24.The Chairman pointed out that according to the minutes of Members' meeting with KCPDB, only 5% of the respondents of the survey conducted by KCPDB members indicated reluctance to surrender their title, and this seemed to contradict what Members were told by the Administration. AD(2)/HA responded that the mandatory requirement for resumption was a 100% agreement by the owners.25.Mr NG Leung-sing said that EPDB had suggested that the relevant legislation should be amended to deal with legal complications arising from protruding balconies. He asked if Government would consider the suggestion. AD(2)/HA assured members that all possible options to resolve the problem had been examined. While the process of amending the relevant legislation would not pose a problem, implementation would be extremely difficult as it would entail the issuance of individual licences to each and every owner affected. Thenumber involved would be enormous, and that some owners might be dead or unable to be traced. The resource implications were so great that Government finally decided not to pursue the option of amending the law.26.Mr NG further asked whether the problem of resources could also be overcome through legislative means. AD(2)/HA replied that it would be extremely difficult to have clauses in a piece of legislation which made Government only partly liable or partly responsible for compensation. It would open up much wider legal problems. He added that some options to deal with the problem of private street might seem very attractive to laymen. However from the legal point of view, they presented greater difficulties than the existing situation.27.Referring to reports of nuisance complaints, incidences of burst pipes and choked drains as detailed in Annex I to the Administration's paper, Mr LEE Wing-tat expressed concern about the state of disrepair in the private streets. He also expressed concern about the safety standards of the buildings in the private streets, and that in case of fire, the fire engines would not be able to access the streets because they were too narrow. He feared that the problem would get much worse if nothing effective was done. He urged the Administration to consider legislative control, or find ways to facilitate the owners concerned to work together to resolve the problem.28.The Chairman asked whether the Administration was prepared to assume responsibility for the day-to-day maintenance and cleanliness of the private streets as if they were public roads. She further asked whether the Administration would consider legislative measures to deal with the problems of unauthorized building works, illegal occupation of premises, etc. in the private streets.29.AD(2)/HA responded that Government would not wash its hands on the matter and had come up with both long-term and intermediate solutions. In the long run, redevelopment would be the answer. In fact, Government did approach the Land Development Corporation on the case of the Wan streets. However, in view of the proposal to set up the Urban Renewal Authority (URA), it was considered more appropriate to keep the matter on hold until its formation. In terms of intermediate solutions, AD(2)/HA said that HAD had tried to persuade the owners to be more actively involved in management of the private streets. With the assistance of the District Councils concerned, HAD had also tried to encourage owners to set up mutual aid committees (MAC), owners’ corporations (OC) or some other forms of organizations so that they could act together to improve the conditions of the streets.30.AD(2)/HA further said that HAD also regularly liaised with the relevant Government departments to improve the conditions of the private streets. For instance, the Fire Services Department conducted regular tests to ensure that fireengines could access the buildings in the private streets in case of fire. Regular road sweeping was maintained and the Water Supplies Department also regularly checked on water pipes and carried out repair work, if necessary. AD(2)/HA pointed out that the interim measures were generally successful and were well received by the majority of owners and tenants.31.The Chairman said that in the past, Government departments concerned were not willing to assist in the management and maintenance of the private streets. She asked whether these departments could now be approached for assistance. AD(2)/HA responded that in the past the Administration had relied on the fact that the private streets would be resumed. It was only in the last 18 months that the departments had switched to the present approach of taking constructive actions to improve the conditions of the private streets because in many cases resumption was not a feasible alternative.32.Mr NG Leung-sing said that it would take some time before the Urban Renewal Authority Bill would be passed and the URA established. He asked whether the Administration would, in the interim period, work with the District Councils concerned to approach and discuss with the owners of the private streets about the redevelopment plans for their properties. AD(2)/HA responded that HAD had closely liaised with the previous Provisional District Boards and now with the District Councils on matters relating to private streets.33.The Chairman said that the District Councils concerned would be informed of today's deliberations.IV.Regulation of motocross courses[LC Paper No. CB(2)1064/99-00(01)]34.The Chairman welcomed representatives of the Administration to the meeting.35.Referring to the Administration's paper, Principal Assistant Secretary for Home Affairs (Recreation & Sport) (PAS(RS)) explained that there were at present three private motorcross clubs in Hong Kong, each of these was a registered business, providing a training ground and lessons for their members, making use of private land. PAS(RS) informed members that there was an international body, the Federation Internationale de Motocyclisme (FIM), which regulated the sport of cross-country cycling. The Federation had safety standards and guidelines for its members, and it also had a recognized membership structure throughout the world. He pointed that in the HKSAR, the Hong Kong Automobile Association (HKAA) was a recognized member of the FIM and therefore the HKAA was in a position to give professional guidance to the three motorcross clubs. The Administration had already discussed with the HKAA and it was already in contact with the clubs. PAS(RS) added that he wasaware that two of the clubs had submitted applications for membership of the Motor Sports Council of the HKAA.36.PAS(RS) said that the Administration regarded motorcross as a sport and as most sports in the HKSAR were generally regulated by their international and local federations, the Administration would like to see the motorcross clubs joining the HKAA and abiding by the regulations and safety standards set by the HKAA in accordance with the FIM safety standards. PAS(RSA) pointed out that this course of action would be a quicker route than formal legislation . It also provided a certain amount of expert input into the regulation of these clubs. He added that the Administration had not ruled out the possibility that formal legislation might need to be considered as current legislation did not cover the kind of operation that these motorcross clubs had. However the immediate priority was to ensure that activities at the three clubs could be conducted safely and in accordance with established safety principles.37.Mr Gary CHENG said that although the professional guidance to be provided by the HKAA could bring the existing safety measures and facilities up to required standards, there was still the question of motorcross activities being held on private roads which needed to be tackled. He asked whether there was any legal loophole in respect of accidents occurring on private land.38.Assistant Commissioner (Management & Licensing), Transport Department (AC(M&L)) explained that according to the Road Traffic Ordinance, the definition of "road" included every thoroughfare, street, lane, alley, way and place to which the public had access. As access to the venues for the motorcycling activities run by the three clubs were restricted to members only, the Ordinance had not been applied to regulate the activities at these clubs. As to whether these venues were considered to be private roads and whether private roads were subject to certain forms of control in existing legislation, the Administration was currently seeking legal advice.39.Mr Andrew CHENG enquired whether in other countries there was legislation to ensure that the guidelines and regulations of the relevant motorcross federations met certain safety standards. He also referred to paragraph 7 of the paper and asked whether the Administration had considered requiring motorcross clubs to be members of HKAAAdm 40.PAS(RS) responded that the Administration did not have information as yet on whether other countries had separate legislation in addition to international federations' requirements to ensure that these requirements were met. However, he pointed out that it was the general practice that if a local federation for a particular sport was affiliated to an international body which already had recognized safety standards, there would not be separate government legislation in many cases. Nevertheless, he undertook to find out and report back to the Panel. PAS(RS) also informed members that the thirdmotorcross club which had not yet submitted an application to the HKAA was in fact preparing one and the HKAA would in due course consider all three applications.41.As to whether the Government would make it compulsory for a motorcycling club to become a member of the HKAA, PAS(RS) replied that in the absence of legislation, the clubs could only be encouraged to become members of the HKAA. They could not be compelled to do so. However, should the clubs respond negatively, then Government might need to revisit the question of legislative control.42.Mr LEE Wing-tat commented that Government's approach was too reactive. In view of the increasing popularity of the motorcycling sport, more clubs were likely to be set up. In the absence of legislative control, these clubs would be able to operate even if they refused to become HKAA members. He was of the view that the Administration should consider the introduction of a licensing system as a permanent control measure. PAS(RS) said that the Administration would consider Mr LEE's views. He added that at present, people in the HKSAR were free to practise many sports in a private or public venue. They could do so without necessarily having to join the local sports association concerned, or coming under the control of any body apart from the management of the premises. He pointed that in discussing today's item, a much broader question of the practice of the more dangerous sports was raised. He said that the Administration could certainly consider the matter, although he could not give a timetable as to how long it would take.43.There being no other business, the meeting ended at 6:00 p.m. Legislative Council Secretariat1 March 2000。
