In Hong Kong, the &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Policy Address&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; ({{zh-t|施政報告}}) is the constitutionally mandated annual address delivered by the [[Chief Executive of Hong Kong|Chief Executive]]. The practice of giving annual Policy Addresses is mandated under Article 64 of the [[Hong Kong Basic Law|Basic Law]], which requires the government to &amp;quot;present regular Policy Addresses to the [[Legislative Council of Hong Kong|[Legislative] Council]]&amp;quot;.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{Cite web |title=Basic Law - Basic Law - Chapter IV (EN) |url=https://www.basiclaw.gov.hk/en/basiclaw/chapter4.html |access-date=2024-10-12 |website=www.basiclaw.gov.hk}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Chief Executive can decide in which month of the year to deliver the annual Policy Address. From 1997 to 2001, [[Tung Chee-hwa]] delivered Policy Addresses in October as the Legislative Council reconvened.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{Cite web |title=1997 Policy Address |url=https://www.policyaddress.gov.hk/pa97/english/light_e.htm |access-date=2024-10-12 |website=www.policyaddress.gov.hk}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; From 2002 to 2005, Tung changed the month of delivering Policy Addresses to January.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{Cite web |title=policy address-archives |url=https://www.policyaddress.gov.hk/05-06/eng/archives.htm |access-date=2024-10-12 |website=www.policyaddress.gov.hk}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; [[Donald Tsang]] delivered Policy Addresses in Octobers.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite news |date=2 August 2012 |title=政務司司長會見傳媒談話全文 |url=http://www.info.gov.hk/gia/general/201208/02/P201208020473.htm |work=Hong Kong Government}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; [[Leung Chun-ying]] delivered Policy Addresses in January.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{Cite web |title=Policy Address available to public on Wednesday |url=https://www.info.gov.hk/gia/general/201301/14/P201301140394.htm |access-date=2024-10-12 |website=www.info.gov.hk}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; [[Carrie Lam]] delivered Policy Addresses in October.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{Cite web |title=Hong Kong Economic and Trade Office, Berlin |url=https://www.hketoberlin.gov.hk/en/newsletter/2017/1101.html |access-date=2024-10-12 |website=Hong Kong Economic and Trade Office, Berlin |language=en}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; John Lee delivers Policy Addresses in October.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{Cite web |title=CE to deliver Policy Address on Oct 16 |url=https://www.chinadailyhk.com/hk/article/593074 |access-date=2024-10-12 |website=chinadailyhk |language=en}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Within 14 days after the delivery of the address, the Chairman of the House Committee of the Legislative Council will move a Motion of Thanks, similar to Address in Reply motions in other legislatures, and members of the Council debate the Policy Address.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{Cite web |title=No.12 POLICY ADDRESS AND CHIEF EXECUTIVE’S QUESTION AND ANSWER SESSIONS |url=https://www.legco.gov.hk/en/education/understand/brief/factsheet12.html |access-date=2024-10-12 |website=Legislative Council of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; Many people see the Policy Address as a useful way to predict how the Chief Executive will operate.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{Cite web |date=2024-10-12 |title=Exclusive {{!}} Hong Kong leader to deliver third policy address, how will it differ this time? |url=https://www.scmp.com/news/hong-kong/hong-kong-economy/article/3282085/hong-kongs-john-lee-set-deliver-his-third-policy-address-how-will-it-differ-first-2 |access-date=2024-10-12 |website=South China Morning Post |language=en}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Historically, the annual address was first introduced in 1972 by Governor Sir [[Murray MacLehose]] during the [[British Hong Kong|British rule of Hong Kong]]. It was called the &amp;quot;Address by the Governor&amp;quot; and was modelled after the [[State Opening of Parliament|Queen&amp;#039;s address]] in the United Kingdom. It aimed to strengthen communications with Hong Kong residents after the [[1967 Hong Kong riots]].&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite web |last=馮 |first=巧欣 |date=2016-01-11 |title= |script-title=zh:【01百科】6個關鍵詞 施政報告33年演化簡史 |trans-title=【01 Encyclopaedia】 6 key terms and a simple history of the policy address&amp;#039; evolution over 33 years |url=http://www.hk01.com/%E6%B8%AF%E8%81%9E/863/-01%E7%99%BE%E7%A7%91-6%E5%80%8B%E9%97%9C%E9%8D%B5%E8%A9%9E-%E6%96%BD%E6%94%BF%E5%A0%B1%E5%91%8A33%E5%B9%B4%E6%BC%94%E5%8C%96%E7%B0%A1%E5%8F%B2 |work=[[HK01]]}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
