​The Chief Executive, Mr John Lee, today (November 15) expressed his gratitude to the Legislative Council (LegCo) for passing the Motion of Thanks in respect of "The Chief Executive's 2024 Policy Address".
Mr Lee said, "This Policy Address, entitled 'Reform for Enhancing Development and Building Our Future Together', proposes over 600 policy measures in various areas, deepening the reforms that I have introduced since I became Chief Executive. It consolidates and enhances the factors for Hong Kong's success while keeping our principles and being innovative in advancing reforms. In this Policy Address, I propose to consolidate the existing advantages of Hong Kong, present enhanced measures and explore new growth areas to address the needs of our people while mapping our vision and long-term goals. This Policy Address combines the wisdom of the community and the Government's planning, showing our hope to jointly build Hong Kong's future.
"I express my gratitude to LegCo Members for offering their views on various measures in the Policy Address during the debate on the Motion of Thanks for three consecutive days, especially for their suggestions on various policy areas related to reform and embracing changes, harnessing the strengths of the 'one country, two systems' principle, strengthening governance systems, consolidating and enhancing Hong Kong's status as an international financial, shipping and trade centre, developing new quality productive forces, fostering economic diversification, taking forward the Northern Metropolis as the growth engine and deepening collaboration within the Greater Bay Area, and building Hong Kong into an international hub for high-calibre talent. The Government will analyse and study these views so that the implementation of relevant measures can meet the needs and expectations of the public.
"My team and I will continue to exchange and communicate with the LegCo through various means. I believe that under the principles of an executive-led structure and 'patriots administering Hong Kong', we can build a better Hong Kong through our united efforts to reform and innovate."
