Reporter: Mr Wong, what is the progress of the public consultation on the future development of electricity market?
Secretary for the Environment:?The consultation lasts for three months, to be ended by end of this month. So far, we are receiving the responses incrementally. By the end of this month, we would have a public forum welcoming the public to attend and have dialogue with me and my colleagues. We would like to encourage more responses in written form to us. Basically, so far we found that the responses are supportive to the major content of the document. Certainly, there are details subject to various opinions including energy saving, renewable energy and how to keep the tariff to be more reasonable. I would like to encourage more public to make responses to us.
