The Liberal Party leader yesterday challenged acting Chief Executive Donald Tsang Yam-kuen to express his views on the West Kowloon cultural hub and other key issues.
James Tien Pei-chun, who last week ruled himself out of the chief executive race said: 'Mr Tsang has never expressed his stance on important policy issues, such as the single-developer approach in the West Kowloon project.'
Speaking on an RTHK programme, Mr Tien also maintained his earlier criticism of Mr Tsang's role in overseeing the development of the site.
In December, he launched a rare attack on Mr Tsang, saying he could be sticking to the single-developer option for the project in exchange for tycoons' support in a possible bid for chief executive. Mr Tsang, who is considered a frontrunner for the job, has yet to declare he will run.
When asked whether he stood by his earlier comment, Mr Tien said: 'I don't think my view has changed.'
But he added: 'The main issue now is that a few months ago, the single-developer approach was Mr Tung [Chee-hwa's] business, but now it is different ... he [Mr Tsang] has never told citizens of his views on important policy issues.'
