As the Government has affirmed that people at the age of 18 can

participate in the elections, and as the functional constituency

election system has to take into consideration the views of different

people in society, there should be members in the Council representing

the students who are not only the "successors" but are also concerned

with social affairs.

*6:

The old and the disabled are the group of people neglected by society. It is unreasonable that their views are still not respected

after the expansion of the FC election. Therefore there should be a

seat for the concerned groups for the old and the disabled in the

1995 FC elections.

The Association considers that the last seat should be given to the

Agriculture and Fisheries sectors, allowing this time-honoured

industry which has given important support to our economic structure

and people's livelihood to have a representative to speak up for it

in the Council, just like the other sectors do.

The Association proposes that in 1995 the sector of the former political figures may, according to the provisions of the Basic Law,

consist of elected members (other than those from the two municipal

councils), deputies to the NPC and members of the CPPCC. The sector

may nominate candidates from whom 100 members of the Election

Committee will be returned on the basis of "one man one vote" by the

3 million non-FC voters in Hong Kong.

Council will

be

returned by

by the

10 Members of the Legislative Council

Election Committee in 1995. The Election Committee will be composed

of the following 4 sectors: the industrial, commercial and financial

sector; the professions; the social services, labour and religious

organisations; and former political figures. Each sector will elect

100 members to the 1995 Election Committee and 10 members will be

returned to LegCo.
