More rail meetings possible: CS

February 08, 2016

The Government will speak with the Legislative Council Finance Committee chairman to arrange additional meetings to provide sufficient time for lawmakers to discuss the Express Rail Hong Kong section’s additional funding request, Chief Secretary Carrie Lam says.

 

The Government has decided to take the funding request for constructing the rail link directly to the Finance Committee.

 

Mrs Lam told reporters today the move is a special way to seek prompt funding approval from the legislature.

 

She added if the committee cannot approve funding by the end of February the project may have to be suspended, which will lead to grave consequences.
