立法會議員是如何產生的?

第六屆立法會(2016-2020)由70名議員組成,其中35名經地方選區直接選舉產生,其餘35名由功能界別選舉產生。

由地方選區選出的議員

三十五名議員由5個以地方分界劃定的選區(即地方選區)選舉產生。五個地方選區分別為香港島、九龍西、九龍東、新界西及新界東。每個地方選區根據區內人口數目設有5至9個議席。

由功能界別選出的議員

三十五名議員由29個功能界別選舉產生,每個界別分別代表香港一個重要的經濟、社會或專業界別。除了勞工界及區議會(第二)功能界別獲分別分配3個及5個議席外,其餘27個功能界別各獲分配一個議席。

立法會的主席是如何產生的,擔當什麼角色?

立法會主席由立法會議員互選產生,在立法會擔當主持會議、行政及禮儀的角色,並確保立法會會議能順利進行。

立法會的功能是什麼?

立法會在會期內通常逢星期三上午11時在立法會綜合大樓會議廳舉行會議,履行其監察政府工作及制定法律此兩項職能。在立法會會議上所處理的主要事項包括:質詢、聲明、法案、具立法效力的議案及不具立法效力的議案。

法案和議案有什麼區別?

“法案”是新法例的建議或對現有法例的修訂建議。政府及議員可提交法案,以提出制定新法例或修訂現行法例的建議,供立法會審議。法案須在立法會完成三讀程序,才可成為 法律。法案提交立法會後,議員會辯論及表決法案。

立法會事務大多透過“議案”方式處理。議案分為兩類:具立法效力的議案及不具立法效力的議案。

具立法效力的議案

官員及議員可動議具立法效力的議案,供立法會審議。例如:官員可動議制定或修訂附屬法例的議案,以徵求立法會的批准。

不具立法效力的議案

議員可於立法會會議動議辯論不具立法效力的議案,在議案辯論中,議員有機會表達對公共利益事宜的意見,或籲請政府採取某些行動。官員可出席辯論,回應議員的意見。

The Rise and Rise of ICO in late 2017

If you still don’t know what is “blockchain” or what is “bitcoin”, The recent work from Max Galka will assure you this is the high time to do some self-study, or you will miss the birth time of “another Internet”. The idea of ICO, Initial Coin/Chain Offering, is an analogy of IPO. With the inception of “smart contract” capability, fundraising, a process to exchange currency to certificate, can be done in a distributed manner. The “currency” in the chain world can be Ethereum, NEO, BitCoin, … The “certificate” in the chain world is called “token” so the ICO process is also referred to as “token sale”. The convenience of ICO gains rapid growth with crazy capitals pouring into this field. Just check out this interactive/ animated token sale history.
