Question: (inaudible)
Chief Secretary for Administration: I would rather just make a very simple statement regarding the Heung Yee Kuk meeting. I would like to thank the Heung Yee Kuk today for arranging this meeting and I value the views of the Heung Yee Kuk very much. We are grateful for the support of the Heung Yee Kuk in terms of the electoral methods for 2012. It is constructive, positive and a realistic way of a progressive evolution towards the goal of universal suffrage. We welcome these views and we urge the society to continue to discuss along those lines. Thank you very much.
