Harbourfront Authority

88.         Victoria Harbour is a valuable asset of Hong Kong people, and should be "a harbour for the people, a harbour of vitality". To enhance the attractiveness and vibrancy of the harbourfront, we welcome the Harbourfront Commission's proposal for setting up a dedicated statutory Harbourfront Authority to press ahead with harbourfront development in a holistic manner with an innovative mindset and a more flexible management approach. The DEVB will collaborate with the Harbourfront Commission in conducting public consultation on the proposal. If the proposal is supported by the public, the Government will take forward the legislative work and provide the financial support. This will be a key milestone to create a Victoria harbourfront for the people.
