香港公务员联合会主席梁周庭警告，政府收紧公务员纪律处分规定可能过度严厉，有损公务员留任。 公务员事务局计划年内修订相关条例，以处理表现不佳员工，包括收紧停职扣薪和没收扣薪规定。
香港公务员联合会主席梁周庭对公务员事务局的计划表示担忧。该局回应议员查询时透露，将于年内实施修订后的《公務員事務規例》和《公務員（紀律）規例》，以改善纪律机制。
局方数据显示，2022年至2025年间，共有151名公务员因严重不当行为或刑事罪行被革职。其中，2022-23年度60人、2023-24年度51人、2024-25年度40人。73人因刑事罪行被革职，78人因不当行为；警务人员革职人数最多，为44人。
梁周庭向《南华早报》表示，收紧纪律处分可能过度，一些主管在面临减少人手目标压力下，行为趋于激进。他担忧此举会影响公务员留任。
