Mr Andrew LEUNG will address the Council on the "Hong Kong Special Administrative Region Independent Commission Against Corruption Annual Report 2014". Independent Commission Against Corruption Hong Kong Special Administrative Region Annual Report 2014 MR ANDREW LEUNG (in Cantonese): President, as a member of the Advisory Committee on Corruption, I hereby brief Members on the Independent Commission Against Corruption Hong Kong Special Administrative Region Annual Report 2014 tabled in the Council today on behalf of the Independent Commission Against Corruption (ICAC). The year 2014 marked the ICAC's 40th anniversary. Over the past four decades, the ICAC has strived persistently to eradicate corruption rigorously through a three-pronged strategy of investigation, corruption prevention and 13476 LEGISLATIVE COUNCIL ─ 24 June 2015 community education. At the same time, it has established rules to eliminate any chances of corruption and reached out to the communities to promote a culture of probity. The achievements of the ICAC over these 40 years are there for all to see. The ICAC has successfully turned Hong Kong from a city once plagued by graft into an internationally recognized model of success in combating corruption. As far as investigation is concerned, the ICAC received 2 362 corruption complaints (excluding election-related complaints) in 2014, representing a drop of 11% compared with last year. Of these, the number of complaints related to the private sector was the greatest which accounted for 63%; the number of complaints against government departments ranked second and accounted for 30%; and complaints against public bodies, which were smallest in number, accounted for only 7%. Despite a drop in the number of complaints, corruption in Hong Kong is still well under control and the investigation work of the ICAC has enhanced in both quantity and quality. In 2014, 223 persons were prosecuted, representing an increase of 3%; the person-based conviction rate was 85%, which was an increase of seven percentage points and the sum total of custodial sentences of three years or above was more than doubled when compared with the figures of last year. Besides, the results of an opinion survey showed that only 1.5% of the respondents had actually come across corruption in the past 12 months. This percentage was far lower than some developed countries. In December last year, a former Chief Secretary for Administration and three prominent businessmen were found guilty of charges of corruption and misconduct. The case shows that the anti-corruption system in Hong Kong is highly effective and that the ICAC would discharge its law-enforcement duties fearlessly and impartially regardless of the background, status and position of the persons involved. In relation to corruption prevention, the ICAC has considered corruption risks and responded to the development of society and public concern. It has actively assisted government departments, public bodies and private organizations to enhance their internal controls, so as to plug loopholes that may give rise to corrupt malpractices, dereliction of duty and abuses of power. LEGISLATIVE COUNCIL ─ 24 June 2015 13477 In 2014, the ICAC completed 68 assignment studies on the systems, practices and procedures of public bodies. In addition, advice on corruption prevention was provided on 526 occasions for government departments and public bodies before new legislations, policies and procedures were promulgated or major projects were launched.

  • Reviewing and Evaluating the Direct Elections to the Legislative Council and the Transformation of Political Parties in Hong Kong, 1991-2016
    Journal of US-China Public Administration, August 2016, Vol. 13, No. 8, 499-517 doi: 10.17265/1548-6591/2016.08.001 D DAVID PUBLISHING Reviewing and Evaluating the Direct Elections to the Legislative Council and the Transformation of Political Parties in Hong Kong, 1991-2016 Chung Fun Steven Hung The Education University of Hong Kong, Hong Kong After direct elections were instituted in Hong Kong, politicization inevitably followed democratization. This paper intends to evaluate how political parties’ politics happened in Hong Kong’s recent history. The research was conducted through historical comparative analysis, with the context of Hong Kong during the sovereignty transition and the interim period of democratization being crucial. For the implementation of “one country, two systems”, political democratization was hindered and distinct political scenarios of Hong Kong’s transformation were made. The democratic forces had no alternative but to seek more radicalized politics, which caused a decisive fragmentation of the local political parties where the establishment camp was inevitable and the democratic blocs were split into many more small groups individually. It is harmful. It is not conducive to unity and for the common interests of the publics. This paper explores and evaluates the political history of Hong Kong and the ways in which the limited democratization hinders the progress of Hong Kong’s transformation. Keywords: election politics, historical comparative, ruling, democratization The democratizing element of the Hong Kong political system was bounded within the Legislative Council under the principle of the separation of powers of the three governing branches, Executive, Legislative, and Judicial. Popular elections for the Hong Kong legislature were introduced and implemented for 25 years (1991-2016) and there were eight terms of general elections for the Legislative Council.

  • Hong Kong's Endgame and the Rule of Law (Ii): the Battle Over "The People" and the Business Community in the Transition to Chinese Rule
    HONG KONG'S ENDGAME AND THE RULE OF LAW (II): THE BATTLE OVER "THE PEOPLE" AND THE BUSINESS COMMUNITY IN THE TRANSITION TO CHINESE RULE JACQUES DELISLE* & KEVIN P. LANE- 1. INTRODUCTION Transitional Hong Kong's endgame formally came to a close with the territory's reversion to Chinese rule on July 1, 1997. How- ever, a legal and institutional order and a "rule of law" for Chi- nese-ruled Hong Kong remain works in progress. They will surely bear the mark of the conflicts that dominated the final years pre- ceding Hong Kong's legal transition from British colony to Chinese Special Administrative Region ("S.A.R."). Those endgame conflicts reflected a struggle among adherents to rival conceptions of a rule of law and a set of laws and institutions that would be adequate and acceptable for Hong Kong. They unfolded in large part through battles over the attitudes and allegiance of "the Hong Kong people" and Hong Kong's business community. Hong Kong's Endgame and the Rule of Law (I): The Struggle over Institutions and Values in the Transition to Chinese Rule ("Endgame I") focused on the first aspect of this story. It examined the political struggle among members of two coherent, but not monolithic, camps, each bound together by a distinct vision of law and sover- t Special Series Reprint: Originally printed in 18 U.
