Reform decision legally practicable: SJ

(September 02, 2014)

The National People’s Congress Standing Committee’s decision on Hong Kong’s constitutional development is legally practicable, Secretary of Justice Rimsky Yuen says.
 
He made the statement to the media today after attending NPCSC Deputy Secretary-General Li Fei’s meeting with the Bar Association and the Law Society to discuss the legal issues on the reform decision.
 
Noting that people have different political opinions on the decision, Mr Yuen said from the legal perspective, it is reasonable and practicable.
 
He urged the community to continue to discuss it and seek consensus to push forward Hong Kong's constitutional development.
