［2023年5月30日］
行政會議今日通過5間巴士公司加價申請，全部低於申請加幅，將於6月18日實施。
各間巴士營運公司於扣除隧道費基金後，九巴加幅為3.9%；龍運巴士升幅4.2%；城巴機場線升幅4.2%；新巴城巴市區線升4.9%；嶼巴則整體平均加幅7.0%。
當局表示，實施新收費後市民需多付的車費由$0.5至$1，加幅溫和。
交諮會表示認同政府一如以往採取審慎的態度處理專營巴士營辦商的加價申請，在全盤考慮一籃子因素後作出決定。交諮會主席張仁良表示歡迎政府把關，將加幅控制在較溫和的水平，盡量減低對市民的影響，同時維持專營巴士營辦商的財政可持續性。交諮會亦認同政府繼續通過多管齊下的方式，鼓勵及協助專營巴士營辦商開源節流，繼續優化巴士服務網絡，以提升營運效益，並協助營辦商進一步開拓非票務收入，以紓緩加價壓力。
In response to the Executive Council's decision to approve fare increase applications from franchised bus operators today (May 30), the Chairman of the Transport Advisory Committee (TAC), Professor Stephen Cheung, said the TAC appreciated that the Government has handled the fare increase applications from franchised bus operators in a prudent manner as it has always been, taking into account a basket of factors before arriving at the decision.
Professor Cheung said, "The TAC welcomes the Government's exercising its gatekeeper role, setting the rates of fare increase to a relatively mild level to minimise the impact on the public while maintaining the financial sustainability of the franchised bus operators. The TAC also agrees that the Government should continue to adopt a multipronged approach to encourage and assist franchised bus operators in raising revenue and reducing expenditure, and continue its efforts in enhancing bus service networks to improve operational efficiency, and assist operators to further expand sources of non-fare box revenue, so as to alleviate the pressure for fare increases."
