Topics hong-kong, maritime, port-development, government, policy

The Chief Executive announced in the 2024 Policy Address that the Hong Kong Maritime and Port Board (HKMPB) will be reconstituted into the Hong Kong Maritime and Port Development Board (HKMPDB). To be chaired by a non-official member and with other members largely from the maritime sector, this high-level advisory body will assist the Government in formulating policies and long-term development strategies. The HKMPDB will be underpinned by dedicated staff and provided with additional funding to enhance its research capabilities, strengthen its Mainland and overseas promotional work and step up manpower training, with a view to supporting the Government in policy implementation more effectively and promoting the sustainable development of Hong Kong’s maritime industry. 行政長官在二○二四年《施政報告》中提出，政府會改革香港海運港口局，成為香港海運港口發展局，由非官方人士出任主席，成員主要來自航運業界，作為高層次諮詢機構，協助政府制訂政策和長遠發展策略。香港海運港口發展局將設有穩定的專責團隊，並獲增撥資源以提升研究能力、加強海內外推廣和強化人力培訓，從而更有效支援政府落實政策，推進香港航運業的可持續發展。
