The next government restructuring plan has been approved by the Executive Council.

The plan generally adopts the blueprint of the "three divisions and fifteen bureaus" proposed by the current government. Chief executive-designate Li Jiachao has added new proposals. According to the new structure diagram provided by the chief executive-designate's office, it includes the addition of the deputy chief secretary for administration and the deputy financial secretary. The three positions of the Chief Minister and the Deputy Secretary for Justice will be expanded to expand the accountability team.


The reorganization of the remaining policy bureaus is roughly the same as the plan proposed by the current government, including the spin-off of the Transport and Housing Bureau; and the establishment of a new culture, sports and tourism bureau, that is, the number of policy bureaus in the new government will increase from 13 to 15.

Other bureaus were reorganized into the Environment and Ecology Bureau, the Medical and Health Bureau, the Home Affairs and Youth Affairs Bureau, and the Innovation, Technology and Industry Bureau.

Li Jiachao met with the media in the afternoon to explain the restructuring plan.

"Hong Kong 01" was broadcast live.


The group is in progress and the candidates are not disclosed at this stage

Li Jiachao thanked the guild and Chief Executive Carrie Lam for their support, so that the restructuring plan could be submitted to the Legislative Council as soon as possible.

He pointed out that the blueprint proposed by the current session was adopted in the hope that the various policy bureaus could focus more on their own policy areas, such as the splitting of the Transport and Housing Bureau.

As for the establishment of three deputy director positions, Lee explained that the deputy director could be assigned to supervise specific policies or projects in the future, including the "Public Housing Project Action Task Force" and "Land and Housing Supply Coordination Team" that he proposed earlier.

Li Jiachao pointed out that after the reorganization, the Secretary for Home Affairs and the Financial Secretary respectively have jurisdiction over 9 and 6 policy bureaus.

When asked why even the Department of Justice needs to add a "Deputy Secretary", he explained that in the future, the Department of Justice must explain more to the international community about Hong Kong's advantages of the rule of law.

He pointed out that the team formation work is in progress, but will not disclose the details at this stage, but he pointed out that the standard for the selection of candidates for the deputy director is to have the ability to coordinate and command, and to be consistent with his own governance philosophy.
