2元乘車優惠|周永新倡60至64歲長者每月上限700元 門檻回復至65歲更徹底

2元乘車優惠|周永新倡60至64歲長者每月上限700元 門檻回復至65歲更徹底

📌 背景:面對千億財赤,政府強調要開源節流,勞福局目前正檢討2元乘車優惠。港大社會工作及社會行政學系榮休教授周永新建議,60至64歲長者每月優惠限額700元,更徹底的辦法是將門檻回復至65歲及以上。

📊 現況:社會福利開支冠絕各部門

周永新指出,2024至25財政年度社會福利開支為1,201.35億元,屬政府各部門開支首位,超過教育和醫療衛生。他認為政府應開源節流,首先要檢討社會福利,福利開支應隨市民需要可加可減,惟削減時要確保市民基本生活和需要不受影響。

🚇 2元乘車優惠:三個建議方案

周永新提出三個方案:

  • 溫和方案:60至64歲長者每月優惠金額上限700元(平均每日23.3元),以每日4程計算,每程平均可用5.83元,加上自付的2元,相信足夠外出參加活動、探親或在區內就業
  • 進取方案:把合資格年齡回復至65歲及以上(2022年初下調年齡時,社會並沒有強烈要求)
  • 底線:無論如何調整,65歲及以上市民的2元交通優惠不應改變

🍎 高齡津貼(生果金)建議凍於1620元

周永新同時建議將俗稱「生果金」的高齡津貼凍結於現有水平1,620元

他認為,隨長者生活津貼設立後,高齡津貼只有「象徵式的意義」——是社會對長者的尊敬,肯定其過往貢獻。各社會保障中,綜援和長津用以保障市民有合理生活水平,難有削減空間;而高齡津貼每年領取長者超過35萬人,凍結後可減省的支出屬可觀數目。

📋 削減福利的原則

周永新強調,削減福利的考慮:

  • 確保市民基本生活和需要不受影響
  • 把資源調往發展其他急需服務
  • 更有效率使用資源,達到發展目的
  • 汲取市民意見,爭取社會支持
