香港巴士安全带风波凸显良好治理需更多审慎

香港立法会围绕巴士安全带法规的争议凸显,即使政府起草完美法律,议员也须履行宪制职责进行审慎审查。意见文章指出,在行政主导体系下,立法机构作为守门人,确保法律不仅符合精神,还需字斟句酌。过去阻挠主义曾导致城市停滞不前。

香港作为行政主导体系,其行政部门负责制定和执行政策,以及起草和引入法案、议案及附属立法。立法机构的职责则是制定、修改或废除法律。因此,议员在确保所制定法律不仅符合精神,还需在文字上精确无误方面扮演守门人角色。意见文章强调,无论意图如何,立法必须措辞正确,至少如此。

文章提及巴士安全带风波作为例证,证明良好治理要求不止效率,还需立法审慎。该风波暴露了潜在立法缺陷,提醒议员履行宪制职责,而非畏首畏尾。关键词包括立法会(Legco)、刘兆佳(Lau Siu-Kai)、大埔(Tai Po)、田北辰(Michael Tien Puk-sun)、基本法(Basic Law)、北京(Beijing)、立法会(Legislative Council)及梁君彦(Andrew Leung Kwan-yuen)。

回顾过去,一些人忆及阻挠主义者以破坏性和拖延战术阻挠进程,导致城市无法前进,被对抗性政治束缚,长久而深层问题仍未解决。该文呼吁议员在审查法案时勇敢履行职责,避免重蹈覆辙。
