本報今（11日）報道，「高才通」計劃及優才計劃措施推出至今年6月，約13.2萬人才經上述兩項計劃抵港。香港大學人口研究中心總監方偉晶認為，本港需因應社會承受力訂立移民人數上限，並針對各行業做獨立及定期評估，以更精準吸納人才填補勞動市場所需。勞工及福利局長孫玉菡今說，政府不用就人才計劃設上限的原因，是若人才成功續簽，代表已在港找到「落腳點」，一定對香港經濟有所貢獻，認為人才越多，意味經濟發展前景越來越廣闊，「我們經濟的餅就會越來越大」。

立法會議員政團「G19」其中7名議員成立「綠色航運推動小組」，促請政府設立跨部門統籌機制，推動海上運輪轉用綠色燃料，並為轉型提供財政與政策配套。航運交通界議員林銘鋒表示，由於今年初起的中東戰事，柴油及燃油價格已「翻咗差唔多一倍」，加重運輸業界經營困難，相信轉用電導船或新能甲醇船能減低營運成本，前提要政府提供適合的充電配套。
保安局局長鄧炳強回應支聯會煽動顛覆國家政權案判刑時表示，法庭的裁決和今次判刑斷定案情屬於煽動顛覆國家政權罪中的情節嚴重，必須嚴懲以彰顯法治，特區政府認為判刑是彰顯法律的公義和維護香港的核心價值。 鄧炳強表示，國家憲制秩序最核心的內容是確立中國共產黨執政，《香港國安法》明確禁止任何人組織、策劃、實施或參與實施以武力或威脅使用武力，又或其他非法手段推翻或破壞憲法所確立的的中華人民共和國的根本制度。而本案清晰揭露支聯會本質，批評支聯會的綱領目標就是要推翻以及破壞中國共產黨在憲法下的領導地位。他說，支聯會的行為是在香港社會埋下仇恨中國共產黨和中央政府的種子，必需
支聯會煽動顛覆國家政權案，被裁定一項煽動顛覆國家政權罪罪成的鄒幸彤，判囚7年3個月、李卓人判囚7年；開審前已承認控罪的何俊仁被判5年2個月。支聯會則被判罰款150萬元。 對於個別美西方政客，多次就支聯會案表達所謂關切，在北京，外交部發言人毛寧回應時表示，中方已就支聯會案闡明嚴正立場。香港是法治社會，中央政府堅定支持香港特區依法維護國家安全，打擊危害國家安全的行為。有關方面應當切實尊重中國主權，尊重香港法治，停止就特區司法案件審理，發表不負責任的言論，停止以任何形式干預香港司法，干涉中國內政。 編輯：羅宇光
