Following is the transcript of remarks by the Chief Executive-elect, Mr John Lee, at a media session this morning (May 15):
Reporter: Regarding plans for reorganising the Government, have you proposed a slightly different plan to the current administration? And also do you expect that the current administration will propose a combined version of the plan to the LegCo (Legislative Council) by the end of the term?
Chief Executive-elect: In general, I think I have already mentioned a few times that I am inclined to concur with the recommendations that has been proposed by Carrie's (The Chief Executive, Mrs Carrie Lam) team. There are points which I have discussed with her, and we did have a useful discussion on the issues that are raised, and I have already reflected my views to the CE (Chief Executive's) Office. The CE Office and the Chief Executive-elect Office have been in close contact to work out an agreed formulation for the process to go ahead for the deliberation of ExCo (Executive Council). Thank you.
