若否,当局如何确保能达到该计划的目的?(2) Hon Miriam LAU (Written Reply) Regarding the Driver Improvement Scheme ( DIS ) implemented by the Transport Department, will the Government inform this Council: (a) of the respective numbers of participants, in each of the past three years, who attended driving improvement courses voluntarily and those who were directed to attend such courses by the court, who had three driving-offence points deducted from their total driving-offence points already incurred upon completion of the courses, and who had incurred driving-offence points within six months, one year and two years after completing the courses (with a breakdown by whether or not they had been disqualified from driving after having incurred

15 or more driving-offence points for committing driving offences during those periods);

and (b) whether it will consider including a road test in the above courses, so as to enhance the effectiveness of DIS;

if it will, of the specific contents of the test;

if not, how the authorities ensure that the objective of DIS can be achieved? # (3) 刘秀成议员(书面答覆)最近台湾发生的地震,对当地楼宇及地下管道造成破坏.本港市民亦感受到是次地震,并对本地楼宇及地下管道的安全表示关注.,现时的《建筑物条例》(第123章)并没有规定本港的私人楼宇须要具备抵御地震的设计,只规定本港楼宇须具备抵受每小时250公里的阵风风力.,上世纪50年代以前兴建的旧楼甚至不具备抗风设计.报导又指屋宇署在2006年12月发出新的作业指引,要求新建楼宇加入抵御地震的设计.就此,政府可否告知本会:

(一)现时没有具备抵御地震能力和法定抗风能力的楼宇各有多少,请按18个地行政区列出分项数字;

(二)根鲜鑫萦钍鹱饕抵敢囊,新建楼宇可抵御的地震烈度为何;

及

(三)有否评估地下管道(特别是气体管道)抵御地震的能力,以及制订紧急应变措施,以应付由地震引起的大规模气体泄漏所导致的重大事故,以及当局有否计划培训能对有关的气体泄漏点进行探测的合资格人士?(3) Prof Hon Patrick LAU (Written Reply) The recent earthquake in Taiwan had caused damages to buildings and underground pipelines there. Residents in Hong Kong also felt that earthquake and have expressed concern about the safety of local buildings and underground pipelines. It is learnt that the existing Buildings Ordinance (Cap. 123) does not require private buildings in Hong Kong to possess seismic resisting designs, but only requires them to withstand wind gusts of

250 kilometres per hour. It has been reported that old buildings constructed before the fifties in the last century do not even possess any wind resisting designs. It has also been reported that the new code of practice ( CoP ) issued by the Buildings Department in December

2006 requires new buildings to be added with seismic resisting designs. In this connection, will the Government inform this Council: (a) of the respective numbers of buildings which do not have seismic resisting capability, or the wind resisting capability as prescribed by law, broken down by the

18 local administrative districts;

(b) of the earthquake intensity that new buildings are able to withstand as required under the above CoP issued by the Buildings Department;

and (c) whether it has assessed the seismic resisting capability of underground pipelines (in particular gas pipes), and drawn up contingency measures to deal with any major incidents arising from large-scale gas leakages caused by earthquakes;
