Chief Executive John Lee says the key performance indicators proposed in his recent policy address show the government is committed to delivering results and will not work behind closed doors.

Speaking on RTHK's Overview Policy show to be aired on Wednesday evening, the CE said there are 110 such indicators after officials put forward their thoughts as they prepared the policy blueprint together.

"We are not afraid of difficulties, we are not conservative. We want to let people know we hope to really deliver, and we are telling you what we want to deliver. We are committed," Lee said.

The indicators, covering areas like housing supply and social welfare, can help authorities improve their work, he added.

Lee also said that a planned Chief Executive's Policy Unit will serve a much different role from that of the Executive Council.

"I would want to listen to the Executive Council's opinion before passing a law provision, but the Chief Executive's Policy Unit will be able to [touch upon] things with no boundaries."

For example, he said, the new policy unit should possess global perspectives and tell him what to pay attention to amid changing international circumstances.

Lee said the new unit and Exco will complement each other.
