保安局局长邓炳强有关深圳排洪：所以我哋香港警务处呢系喺排洪之前45分钟系接获深圳当局通知将会排洪，我哋警务处亦都随即通知有关政府部门……系采取一啲适当嘅措施，系包括一啲戒备嘅措施同埋一啲撤离嘅措施嘅。我知道市民可能担心因为深圳水库排洪而令到香港水浸，事实上深圳水库嘅排洪无论对深圳同香港嚟讲呢，都系属于一啲安全保障嘅措施嚟嘅，亦都系喺一个，我哋一个原定嘅计划之中嘅。事实上受影响嘅陆区亦都冇一个严重嘅严重嘅水浸情况出现。而多个地区出现一啲水浸情况呢，似乎同深圳排洪呢，都系冇一个直接关系嘅。
政务司司长陈国基有关“五百年一遇”：For this heavy rain, it was really really so big, as mentioned by our colleague, it was once-in-500-years, so it’s so big and so sudden, and the predictability is so low, so that’s why we cannot to act as (in the case of) the former typhoon Solar that we can’t do announcement very early beforehand.
