Government launches public consultation for 2024 Policy Address (with video)

     The Government of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region today (July 16) launched a public consultation for the Chief Executive's 2024 Policy Address. The Chief Executive, Mr John Lee, will deliver his third Policy Address this October.
 
     "My team and I have been listening to your views all along, and we have put up concrete measures to improve governance, create a strong impetus for growth, earnestly address people’s concerns and difficulties in their daily lives, and work together to safeguard harmony and stability." Mr Lee said.

     "Over the past year or so, we have enacted the local legislation for Article 23 of the Basic Law to fulfil the constitutional responsibility, and improved district governance. It is now the best time for Hong Kong to focus on developing our economy and improving our livelihood. In the days to come, the Government will continue to unite and lead society in seeking innovation and changes, and strive for excellence and success for Hong Kong.  We will also stand atop and look afar, capitalise on our strengths and seize all opportunities, so as to let our people enjoy better lives."

     "I invite you all to give your views on the 2024 Policy Address. We will listen to and consider your views carefully, and we look forward to receiving your views and hearing your thoughts. Let's embrace the future together!"
 
     The Government will hold more than 40 consultation sessions to receive the views and suggestions of Legislative Council Members, representatives of different sectors and members of the public. The Chief Executive and the principal officials will also conduct district visits to meet with members of the public and representatives of different sectors and listen to their views directly.
