On Monday's Backchat: A minimum size for newly built apartments; and China’s latest space mission.
The Development Secretary, Michael Wong, says a new requirement may be introduced to ensure that newly built private apartments are at least 210 square feet in area.
The aim would be to prevent developers from building ever-smaller studio flats, or nano-flats, as they are known.
A study on flat sizes will be launched soon and the new measure could be introduced as soon as next year.
Mr Wong says it's part of a plan to give residents a chance to have more living space, or "living bigger" in "Hong Kong 2030+". 
After 9.15am, we’ll be looking at China’s latest mission to the space station which is still under construction.
