The salary adjustment of politically appointed officials was approved by the Legislative Council Finance Committee today.
Secretary for Constitutional & Mainland Affairs Raymond Tam said although the salary adjustment proposal is not complicated, the committee has spent 12 hours discussing it before approving it.
He added legislators’ dithering could dampen the wish of those who want to serve as politically appointed officials.
“I hope the discussions by legislators on various agenda in the next few months can be smooth,” he said.
