When attending a radio program, the Hong Kong Financial Secretary Paul Chan said that there is a consensus in the community that the "$2 Scheme" is not financially viable in the long run if no adjustment is made, while pledging that a concessionary fare of $2 to people aged 65 or above will definitely not be abolished. The new Budget of the HKSAR government will be released on 26 February. The government administration is now pooling different views and examining how the policy can be adjusted, among which is to allow public transport operators to provide concessions to the elderly on their own, said Chan.
