  • Sentencing Conference Held by DOJ *********************************
    Sentencing conference held by DOJ ********************************* The Prosecutions Division of the Department of Justice today (January 15) held the Sentencing Conference 2012, which was attended by more than 80 participants, including members of the judiciary, prosecutors, criminal law practitioners and scholars. Entitled "A New Sentencing Regime for Hong Kong?", the conference was the first of its kind organised by the Department of Justice to stimulate discussion on the pros and cons of establishing a sentencing council in Hong Kong and reflect upon the existing sentencing regime with reference to the experience of the Victorian Sentencing Advisory Council. In delivering the welcoming address, the Director of Public Prosecutions, Mr Kevin Zervos, SC, said: "In the pursuit of upholding the rule of law and in serving the interests of justice and the community, a prosecutor must always act fairly and properly. The fundamental task of a prosecutor is to be a minister of justice." He also emphasised the need to protect the public bearing in mind the important public dimension of sentencing and the need to maintain public confidence and support in our criminal justice system. The keynote speaker at the conference was the Dean of Law at the University of Monash, Professor Arie Freiberg, a leading expert on sentencing law in Australia. He is also the Chairman of the Victorian Sentencing Advisory Council. After giving a presentation on the experience of the Victorian Sentencing Advisory Council, Professor Freiberg, together with Mr Clive Grossman, SC, Dr Gerard McCoy, SC, Mr Keith Yeung, SC, Mr Stephen Hung and Professor Simon Young, participated in the panel discussion with Mr Zervos, SC, as the moderator.

  • Hong Kong Bar Association Circular No
    Hong Kong Bar Association Circular No. 245/19 To : All Members & Mess Members of the Bar Association From : Jonathan Chang – Honorary Secretary Date : 3 December 2019 PRACTICE NOTE : NEW PRACTICE WHERE FLAGRANT INCOMPETENCE IS ADVANCED AS A GROUND OF APPEAL Members’ attention is drawn to the Court of Appeal judgment in HKSAR v Apelete [2019] HKCA 1189 whereby a new practice is imposed by the Court where flagrant incompetence of legal representative(s) at trial is advanced as a ground of appeal: 1. An appellate counsel has a duty to satisfy himself that the ground is properly arguable, i.e. there is a palpably sound basis for such allegations to be made, failing which such allegations must never be advanced: see also HKSAR v Li Xiaoxiang (2018) 21 HKCFAR 272 at [31]. 2. In making that assessment, the appellate counsel must look for independent and objective evidence to support the complaint and, save where there are good and compelling reasons not to do so, make full and proper enquiries of the previous legal representatives at trial in relation to the complaint before articulating it as a ground of appeal. The appellate counsel must then add an appropriate certificate in the grounds of appeal that he has complied with this duty when relying on such a ground. 3. Further, a signed waiver of LPP from the applicant in respect of the trial legal representatives and an affirmation in support of the complaint must be filed at the same time as the ground of appeal. 4. If subsequent material comes to light casting doubt on the applicant’s claims, there is a continuing duty on the appellate counsel to evaluate the propriety of the grounds of the complaint.

    Hong Kong’s disaffected youths – Is the criticism warranted? December 7, 2016 Jacinta Keast Sixtus ‘Baggio’ Leung and Yau Wai-ching, two young legislators from the localist Youngspiration party, have been barred from Hong Kong’s legislative council (LegCo). Never has China’s National People’s Congress (NPC) jumped to an interpretation on a matter in Hong Kong without a prior request from the local government or courts. This comes after the pair modified their oaths, including enunciating the word ‘China’ as ‘Cheena’ (支那), a derogatory term used by the Japanese in World War II, using expletives to refer to the People’s Republic of China, and waving around blue ‘Hong Kong is not China’ banners at their swearing in. Commentators, including those from the pan-democratic side of the legislature, have called their behaviour infantile, ignorant and thuggish, and have demanded ‘that the hooligans be locked up’. But is this criticism warranted? A growing tide of anti-Mainlander vitriol has been building in Hong Kong since it was handed back to the People’s Republic of China in 1997 under a special constitution termed The Basic Law. In theory, the constitution gave Hong Kong special privileges the Mainland did not enjoy—a policy called ‘One Country, Two Systems’. But in practice, more and more Hong Kong residents feel that the long arm of Beijing’s soft power is extending over the territory. The Occupy movement and later the 2014 Umbrella Revolution began once it was revealed that the Chinese government would be pre-screening candidates for the 2017 Hong Kong Chief Executive election, the election for Hong Kong’s top official.

    H. Res. 422 In the House of Representatives, U. S., November 1, 2017. Whereas the People’s Republic of China assumed the exercise of sovereignty over the Hong Kong Special Administra- tive Region 20 years ago, on July 1, 1997; Whereas the Joint Declaration between the Government of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and the Govern- ment of the People’s Republic of China on the Question of the Hong Kong (in this resolution referred to as the ‘‘Joint Declaration’’) required China’s National People’s Congress (NPC) to pass the ‘‘Basic Law of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region of the People’s Re- public of China’’ (in this resolution referred to as the ‘‘Basic Law’’) consistent with the obligations contained in the Joint Declaration, which was approved by the NPC on April 4, 1990; Whereas relations between the United States and Hong Kong are fundamentally based upon the continued maintenance of the ‘‘one country, two systems’’ policy stipulated in the United States-Hong Kong Policy Act of 1992 (Public Law 102–383; 22 U.S.C. 5701 et seq.) and established by the Joint Declaration; Whereas under the ‘‘one country, two systems’’ policy estab- lished by the Joint Declaration, Hong Kong ‘‘will enjoy a high degree of autonomy except in foreign and defense 2 affairs’’ and ‘‘will be vested with executive, legislative and independent judicial power including that of final adju- dication’’; Whereas Hong Kong’s autonomy under the ‘‘one country, two systems’’ policy, as demonstrated by its highly developed rule of law, independent judiciary,

    Hong Kong * Page 1 of 9 Published on Freedom House (https://freedomhouse.org) Home > Hong Kong * Hong Kong * Country: Hong Kong * Year: 2018 Freedom Status: Partly Free Political Rights: 5 Civil Liberties: 2 Aggregate Score: 59 Freedom Rating: 3.5 Overview: The people of Hong Kong, a special administrative region of China, have traditionally enjoyed substantial civil liberties and the rule of law under their local constitution, the Basic Law. However, the chief executive and half of the Legislative Council are chosen through indirect electoral systems that favor pro-Beijing interests, and the territory’s freedoms and autonomy have come under threat in recent years due to growing political and economic pressure from the mainland. Trend Arrow: Hong Kong received a downward trend arrow due to the expulsion of four prodemocracy lawmakers from the legislature, jail sentences against protest leaders, and other apparent efforts by pro-Beijing authorities to stamp out a movement calling for local self- determination.

Was the current head of government or other chief national authority elected through free and fair elections? 0 / 4 Under 2010 electoral reforms, the chief executive, who serves a five-year term, is chosen by a 1,200-member election committee. Some 200,000 “functional constituency” voters—representatives of elite business and social sectors, many with close Beijing ties—elect 900 of the committee’s members, and the remaining 300 consist of Legco members, Hong Kong delegates to China’s National People’s Congress (NPC), religious representatives, and Hong Kong members of the Chinese People’s Political Consultative Conference (CPPCC), a Chinese government advisory body.
