September 21, 2026

Secretary for Constitutional & Mainland Affairs Janice Tse:

The formulation of the Five-Year Plan indeed is a very fruitful process.

It has been done in a very, very speedy manner. 

Within six months, we can formulate a plan that closely integrates into national development and helps serve the overall national development. During the process, we are indeed very grateful for all the views we received from the public and all the support and collaboration with the Legislative Council.

We received many, many reports within a very short period of time gathered by the Legislative Council, which form a very useful base for us to formulate the consultation document, and give us an idea about the specific areas and expectations from the stakeholders and various sectors of the community on the blueprint for Hong Kong's future in the next five years.
