Hong Kong and Shenzhen officials today held a task force meeting with regard to the planning and development of Hong Kong-Shenzhen control points. The meeting, held in Shenzhen, was attended by a Hong Kong Special Administrative Region Government delegation led by Secretary for Security Tang Ping-keung, and a Shenzhen Municipal Government delegation led by Shenzhen Vice Mayor Luo Huanghao. The two parties discussed the planning and development of land boundary control points (BCPs), including the redevelopment of BCPs in Huanggang and Sha Tau Kok, and the transfer of the Man Kam To BCP food control function. Mr Tang remarked that Hong Kong-Shenzhen BCPs are key transportation hubs in the Greater Bay Area and serve as vital channels for economic exchange. He added that professional planning and efficient management can bring residents and enterprises in both regions more convenience. He also expressed gratitude to Shenzhen for arranging a visit to the Huanggang port tower, and said he was pleased to learn that the new Huanggang Port redevelopment project is progressing smoothly. He highlighted that Hong Kong lawmakers voiced their support for the project when it was presented to the Legislative Council Panel on Security last month. Concluding the meeting, the Hong Kong security chief said he will continue to work on ensuring the BCP projects’ smooth implementation, and to adjust strategies where necessary in order to address challenges, realise the modernisation of control points and meet citizens’ needs. Other Hong Kong officials attending the meeting included representatives from the Transport & Logistics Bureau, the Northern Metropolis Co-ordination Office, the Environment & Ecology Bureau, the Customs & Excise Department, the Immigration Department, the Food & Environmental Hygiene Department, the Architectural Services Department and the Transport Department.
