陳茂波:公務員凍薪經綜合考慮

(可按這裏收看整個記者會的手語翻譯短片。)

 

財政司司長陳茂波表示,在財政預算案提出所有行政、立法、司法機關和區議會全體人員下個財政年度凍薪,有助公共財政恢復到穩健基礎上,作出決定前已綜合考慮多方面因素。

 

陳茂波下午舉行記者會闡述預算案內容,被問到外界對政府提出凍薪有不同意見。他指,作此決定前考慮的因素,包括過去兩年經濟持續增長,預計今年經濟保持增長勢頭。隨着經濟增長,市民收入也會增加,加上現時勞工市場偏緊,失業率偏低,相信一般打工仔薪酬仍有增加空間。

 

而財政預算案中也提出強化後的財政整合計劃,有方向、有步驟、有系統地逐年削減政府開支,公務員編制在2026至27年度及2027至28年度每年減2%,本屆政府任期內合共削減約一萬個職位。

 

他相信,公共財政會恢復到穩健基礎上,而凍薪屬比較合適的決定。
