Liang Junyan said today that 16 MPs who do not need to be quarantined in Penny's Bay need to undergo three more tests according to the regulations of the Centre for Health Protection.

He mentioned that the government requires the officials involved to stay at home for isolation and observation, and will not resume their duties until all test results are negative. Stay home until the result and avoid going out.

He stressed that all Legislative Council members are under the supervision of Hong Kong citizens and must be accountable to the public for their actions. He hopes and believes that they will cooperate with the government's epidemic prevention requirements and work together with all citizens in the anti-epidemic work.

However, he admitted that he has not contacted the 16 members yet, emphasizing that each member must make his own decision.

Liang Junyan pointed out that as long as the test results are always negative, the legal requirements have been met, but he emphasized that the public has higher expectations for members, so how to deal with "test members' own political wisdom".

Video meetings cannot have mixed arrangements

Regarding the first session of this year's Legislative Council on Wednesday, Leung Kwan-yin said that the lack of 20 members was just a "fly in the ointment", but he believed that the meeting could proceed as usual.

As for whether it is possible to arrange relevant members to participate in the meeting through video, Liang Junyan explained that although the law has been passed, Zoom can be used to hold meetings, but only all members can attend the meeting, or all members can use Zoom to hold meetings, and there will be no mixed arrangements.

Regarding the inability to "unite people" in the first meeting of the new parliament, Liang Junyan pointed out that there are many uncertain factors in the epidemic, "Every matter may not have a perfect answer or result, but as long as the meeting can be held as scheduled, I feel it is rare. I will continue to persevere.”

When asked if it will affect the work of other committees, Liang Junyan said that there is no impact at the moment, because the committee has not yet elected a chairman, "it will happen, and there is no need to be too far-fetched."
