林郑:现时评估全年本港经济很可能现负增长 情况非常严峻
阿思达克 10-29 10:23

行政长官林郑月娥今早(29日)在出席行政会议前表示,政府将於本周四(31日)公布今年第三季经济的预估数字,若季度经济增长出现负数,连同第二季已出现负数,可说香港经济进入技术性衰退状况。

她指,按现时评估,今年全年本港经济很可能出现负增长,未能达已经调低的介乎0%至1%增长目标,因此情况非常严峻。而政府会密切监察经济下行情况作出需要措施,不会待至某一刻如《财政预算案》才推出相关纾缓措施。

她又提到,自8月起政府差不多每个月都有公布「撑企业保就业」措施,现在总投入的额外拨款超过200亿元。由於预期香港经济将出现严峻局面,有关纾缓措施虽然不能完全处理问题,但有其针对性,帮助旅游、零售及物流等行业面对经济下行,而目前业界对措施反应正面,政府会继续聆听业界意见, 研究更多支援方法。

另外,对於英国《金融时报》早前报道中央有意於明年3月撤换行政长官,林郑月娥称一般不会评论揣测性报道,而外交部早前亦澄清有关报道是别有用心,强调中央在过去多月一直支持自己依法施政。她又指政府过去以不同形式与市民对话,有公开的对话会,亦有较深度的对话,但并无与「勇武」人士进行过深度对话。
