Chief Executive John Lee on Tuesday said the government will seriously consider bringing in a specific law to ban "storm chasing". This comes after several people were arrested last week on suspicion of child neglect for allegedly taking children to coastlines to watch the waves as Super Typhoon Ragasa hit Hong Kong. Speaking to reporters ahead of the weekly Executive Council meeting, Lee described storm chasing as “irresponsible” behaviour that poses unnecessary risks to those taking part, as well as to rescue workers in the case of an accident. “The police have held people responsible for chasing winds and waves during the typhoon, arresting four individuals... This demonstrates that the government holds people accountable for acts of irresponsibility that endanger lives,” he said. “I understand that there is public support for legal measures against storm chasers. The government will conduct a comprehensive review, and the Security Bureau will carry out a study.” The CE also said that the government and community worked closely together to minimise the damage caused by Ragasa, allowing normality to be restored the day after the typhoon departed. Lee added that he has asked the steering committee on handling extreme weather to conduct a comprehensive review of their experience, to see what aspects of prevention and response can be further improved.
