Chief Executive John Lee said on Tuesday that carrying out reforms together is among the themes of this year's Policy Address, which he will deliver on Wednesday morning.

He said the cover of the blueprint's hard copy will be in green again, because this reflects the sustainability of government policies.

Lee added that the colour can also mean harmony, vitality and prosperity.

"I know that everybody's very keen to know about the content of the Policy Address. The theme of the Policy Address is we will reform for enhancing development and building our future together," he told reporters ahead of the weekly Executive Council meeting.

The CE added that there will be a supplement in place of a document on policies implemented in the past couple of years, which he hopes people don't overlook.

Lee's predecessor, Carrie Lam, introduced supplements for her blueprint in 2019.

Meanwhile, Lee said new amendments that Beijing and local officials signed as part of the Closer Economic Partnership Arrangement (CEPA) last week didn't come easy, as he once again thanked the central government for making it happen.

He said the idea to amend the agreements, which cover various service industries, was led by the Ministry of Commerce and was backed by the Hong Kong and Macau Affairs Office.
