財政預算案提及黃竹坑的發展 Wong Chuk Hang in the Budget Speech

財政預算案提及黃竹坑的發展主要是工廈改為寫字樓、私立醫院用地及私立高等院校用地。背景可見我網誌的規劃欄。

財政司司長財政預算案演辭

增加寫字樓供應

35. 添馬艦新政府總部啟用後,原中區政府合署中座及東座會轉作律政司的辦公室,而西座則拆卸重建為甲級寫字樓。我們會參考公眾諮詢收集得來的意見,稍後公布用地的設計、規劃和出售細則。此外,我們會繼續籌備將灣仔海傍三座政府辦公大樓的部門陸續搬離現址,騰出土地以增加甲級寫字樓供應。

36. 運輸基建將會帶動寫字樓地帶分散發展。預計於二○一五年完工的南港島線(東段)有助促進黃竹坑一帶的工廠大廈重建作辦公室用途。位於西九龍的廣深港高速鐵路總站上蓋亦已規劃作優質寫字樓發展。此外,為善用沙中線鐵路站的優勢,我們將在啟德發展另一寫字樓樞紐,預期於二○一五年落成的啟德政府辦公大樓,會帶動這新樞紐內商業辦公室的發展。啟德發展計劃與觀塘和九龍灣前工業區轉型成為寫字樓地帶,會產生明顯的協同效應。


Budget Speech by the Financial Secretary (3)

36. Transport infrastructure will facilitate office decentralisation. The South Island Line (East), which is scheduled for completion in 2015, will facilitate the redevelopment of industrial buildings in Wong Chuk Hang for office use. The development above the terminus of the Guangzhou-Shenzhen-Hong Kong Express Rail Link located in West Kowloon has been designated as quality office space. Taking advantage of the location of a station of the Shatin to Central Link at Kai Tak, we will develop Kai Tak into another premier office node. The Kai Tak Government Offices, expected to be completed in 2015, will speed up the development of commercial office space at this brand new node. The Kai Tak Development will create noticeable synergy with the office belt transformed from the former industrial areas in Kwun Tong and Kowloon Bay.

醫療產業

104. 在醫療產業方面,我們預留了四幅位於黃竹坑、大埔、將軍澳和大嶼山的土地,發展私營醫院,並已收到30份本地及海外機構提交的發展意向書。我們現正制訂批地安排,計劃由二○一一年年底或二○一二年起分期批出有關土地。

30機構申請私營醫院用地(12:12)

財政司長曾俊華表示,本港四幅私營醫院用地,已收到30份本地及海外機構提交的發展意向書。曾俊華表示,在醫療產業方面,政府預留了四幅位於黃竹坑、大埔、將軍澳和大嶼山的土地,發展私營醫院,並已收到30份本地及海外機構提交的發展意向書。政府現正制訂批地安排,計劃由二○一一年年底或二○一二年起分期批出有關土地。他指出,為推動公共衛生及醫療服務的研究及發展,食物及衛生局計劃設立新的「醫療衛 生研究基金」,將現有的「衛生及醫護服務研究基金」和「控制傳染病研究基金」納入新基金內。為此,政府會預留10億元為基金撥款注資。基金除繼續資助原定研究範圍內的項目外,亦會就香港較有優勢的先進醫療研究範疇,例如兒童專科、腦神經科學、醫學遺傳科等,在研究設施及項目上提供資助,並配合將來設立兒童專科中心的計劃及其他專科的發展。(即時新聞)

Medical Services

104. On medical services, we reserved four sites at Wong Chuk Hang, Tai Po, Tseung Kwan O and Lantau for private hospital development, and received 30 development proposals from local and overseas institutions. We are formulating the arrangements to dispose of the sites in phases starting from end-2011 or 2012.

105. To promote research and development in public health and medical services, the Food and Health Bureau plans to set up a "Health and Medical Research Fund". The existing Health and Health Services Research Fund and Research Fund for the Control of Infectious Diseases will be subsumed under the new Fund. To this end, the Government will earmark $1 billion for injection into the new Fund. Apart from continuing to fund projects within the original research ambits, the new Fund will also finance research projects and facilities in areas of advanced medical research where Hong Kong enjoys comparative advantages, such as paediatrics, neuroscience and clinical genetics. This will tie in with the plan for a Centre of Excellence in Paediatrics and development of other specialties in the future.

106. Hong Kong is well-placed to develop into an international clinical trial centre and a translational research centre. To advance the development of the pharmaceutical and biopharmaceutical industries, the Hospital Authority (HA) will set up Phase I clinical trial centres in Queen Mary and Prince of Wales Hospitals to conduct preliminary clinical trials for new drugs, with a capital cost of about $42 million. The clinical trial centre in Prince of Wales Hospital is expected to come into operation first in 2011-12. We will also map out our way forward for different phases of clinical trials for drugs, and strengthen the organisation, management and planning for clinical trials to promote development in this area.

107. The above measures will help attract more relevant professionals to Hong Kong, lay the foundation of advanced medical research here and provide more training opportunities. A range of scientific research-related jobs, such as professional researchers, scientists, medical technology professionals and pharmacists, will also be created.

Education Services

108. To promote the internationalisation and diversification of our education services, we have allocated four greenfield sites for the building of international schools. We expect that some 5 000 places will be provided in the coming few years to admit children of those who come from abroad to work in Hong Kong and attract more quality non-local students to study here.

109. The number of self-financing degree-awarding tertiary institutions in Hong Kong has increased to four, providing a total of about 11 000 places. We awarded two sites at the end of last year for the development of self-financing degree programmes. We have also reserved a site at the former Queen Hill's Camp in the New Territories and invited expressions of interest from relevant organisations. I will consider increasing the commitment of the Start-up Loan Scheme to help institutions meet the costs of purpose-built accommodation when needed.

110. In his Policy Address, the Chief Executive proposed to establish a Self-financing Post-secondary Education Fund with a total commitment of $2.5 billion for the development of self-financing post-secondary education. We plan to set up the Fund in the second half of this year.
