在未来10年，政府将投放约200亿元在新的污水收集及处理项目上，以改善水质及保障公共卫生。政府将全数承担有关的建筑费用。为支付每年约13亿元的日常营运开支，我们预计在10年内，排污费须增至每月27元，每年递增幅度温和，平均增幅每日不足一毫。
To enhance water quality and protect public health, the Government plans to invest about $20 billion in new sewerage and sewage treatment facilities in the next ten years. As well as the capital cost to be borne by the Government, there will be additional operating expenditure of about $1.3 billion per annum. To fund these operating costs, the average domestic sewage charge will have to rise to $27 per month in ten years' time - a modest increase each year of no more than 10 cents per day.
