Bloody - No one would like to join the Government

To be very honest - although you might really say that I have morality problem, because of this its really not my choice of entering the Government.

- 出差儲起的飛行哩數,須優先用於公幹
- 禁止員工購買公署內的舊物資

Actually I really could not imagine that.
For me, I'd rather abandon Asia Miles. It's my choice to enter this scheme. Why I have to enter the scheme for the benefit of my employer? I guess I do not have incentive for that.

It'd just give some adverse effects:

- To get rid of the trouble of marking down which miles are from business trips, I would not enter into the mileage programmes. Therefore the Government would never get the benefit of this kind of scheme.

- 禁止員工購買公署內的舊物資: then these materials would be thrown away (a waste) or they have to be sold to general public. I just wonder how much admin cost it'd incurr.

私隱署亡羊補牢 外訪須知會民政局

【明報專訊】林永康事件曝光後,私隱署曾檢討資源運用的措施,如出差儲起的飛行哩數,須優先用於公幹﹔專員外訪,更須事先通知民政事務局(相關新聞 - 網站)長,避免濫用公帑情況再現,局方至今已批出6次申請,但立法會(相關新聞 - 網站)議員張文光(相關新聞 - 網站)認為,現行的津貼申報制度仍有漏洞,偏向依賴個人操守執行及監察,建議加入更多行政手段,如實報實銷制度,改善機制。

出差飛行哩數 須先用於公幹

民 政事務局稱,已通知公署注意申報外訪開支,及收發出內部福利金的標準,暫毋須檢討公署的架構﹔另外,私隱署已採取多項改善措施,如規定有實際需 要才可宴請客人,並設定每餐的費用上限,至於出差所儲的飛行哩數,亦規定須優先用於公幹,甚至禁止員工購買公署內的舊物資,並設立小組處理棄置的資產。

其實涉及公職人員的違規或不法行為,近年屢見不鮮(見左表),至於林永康事件,議員張文光形容涉及「罕有的個人操守問題」,坦言難以想像首長級的人也會「諗縮數」,廉署起訴亦是合理做法。

張文光倡憑單實報實銷

張文光續指,長遠需進一步完善津貼申報制度,例如出外公幹時,先發出一筆過津貼作為日常的「零用錢」,不用再「開單」﹔至於機票、酒店等「大數」,則必須憑單據實報實銷。

城市大學公共及社會行政學系教授張炳良則相信現行的制度尚算「有效」,但申報津貼或政府部門外判招標等,涉及利益的程序,透明度仍可提高,方能堵塞漏洞。
