The Legislative Council will continue to debate the "Policy Address" motion of thanks today (22nd). The debate will enter the final session in the morning, discussing issues related to land, housing, education, etc.

Mak Mei-juan of the Federation of Trade Unions, who was accused of "extremely rude" and scolded Chief Executive Carrie Lam, thanked her at the meeting because Carrie Lam had approved her proposal in the Legislative Council to regulate the collection of water charges by owners of subdivided houses in accordance with Article 74 of the Basic Law. For private bills, the Water Supplies Department will provide a hotline to facilitate the implementation of relevant policies.

She praised the government's lack of bureaucracy in dealing with overcharging of water charges, describing it as a manifestation of "people-centered".

Mai Meijuan urges officials to read "Xi Jinping on State Administration"

When Mai Meijuan spoke, he raised the book "Xi Jinping on State Administration" by President Xi Jinping, and suggested that government officials should learn more about Xi Jinping's thought.

At the meeting, Mak Mei-juan thanked Carrie Lam again, because the other party had approved her to introduce a private bill in the Legislative Council to regulate the collection of water charges by owners of subdivided houses in accordance with Article 74 of the Basic Law, saying that the Water Supplies Department would provide a telephone hotline for convenience. Implement relevant policies.

However, Mai Meijuan said that he has "beared enough" the government's anti-epidemic measures, saying that citizens would rather spend two weeks "happily" to conduct mandatory testing for the entire population. However, the government "has nothing to say", but suddenly it is close to lockdown. In the Yau Ma region, they denounced that "(measures) science or science is yours (government)."

Private drafts must be passed by group counting

In 2017, Mak Meijuan submitted a private bill to the Legislative Council, suggesting that owners should not charge water charges higher than those levied by the Water Supplies Department to prevent sub-divided house owners from overcharging water charges; the bill was approved by the Department of Justice at the end of last year. The law meets the specifications, but because it involves government policies, it needs to get the written consent of Carrie Lam before it can be proposed in the Legislative Council.



The threshold for passing private bills proposed by members is higher than that of general government bills. They must be counted in groups, and only more than half of the members of the functional constituencies and directly elected members of the districts can pass.

In her speech, Mai Meijuan called on officials to read President Xi Jinping's book "Xi Jinping on State Administration".
