Also, Matthew Cheung mentioned that the government will form a select committee by first quarter of 2013, which will include government officials, representative of labor unions and employers' associations, academics and community leaders, to investigate the related issues. He also said that it would "perhaps be unrealistic" to put forward a bill for standard working hours in the next one to two years.<ref>[http://www.scmp.com/news/hong-kong/article/1064321/city-digest-october-19-2012 City Digest, October 19,2012] SCMP, 2012-10-19</ref>
