New Thinking Legislative Council member Di Zhiyuan raised an oral question on the performance management of politically appointed officials at the Legislative Council meeting today (9th), asking the authorities to explain whether the Council has established a reward and punishment system for officials who are held accountable.
Tsang Kwok-wai, Secretary for Constitutional and Mainland Affairs, said that the current system is effective and politically appointed officials are regulated by the Code for Officials under the Political Appointment System. If they are suspected of violating their duties or the provisions of the Code, the Chief Executive will decide whether the case is true or not according to appropriate procedures. If true, appropriate measures will be taken, including warnings, public reprimands, suspension or dismissal; if major officials are involved, the Chief Executive may, in accordance with the Basic Law, propose to the Central Government the suspension or dismissal of relevant officials.
KPI to evaluate the performance of the department?

Zeng Guowei mentioned that the original intention of serving as an accountability official is to contribute to the country and Hong Kong society. Salary and reward are not the biggest consideration. "Seeking happiness for the society is the biggest encouragement."

Zeng: If the accountability officials want to deploy bureaucrats, they can ask
Ho Chun-yin of the Democratic Alliance for Betterment of Hong Kong pointed out that the current government is more active and proactive than previous governments, and believes that it is unfair to discuss whether the accountability officials can meet the performance targets. All of a sudden, I'm not feeling well today, and I want to accompany a lot of people, so you can leave, and sometimes it's your responsibility."
Ho Junxian pointed out that the government should list the responsibilities of officials at all levels and give accountability officials "human rights", because civil servants and bureau chiefs "fuck off" both affect performance.
Tsang Kwok-wai responded that if there is a need to adjust personnel, it can be submitted to the Civil Service Bureau, and the bureau will make appropriate arrangements.
