NPC Official on Abode Case in Hong Kong

A spokesman of the Commission of Legislative Affairs of the National People's Congress (NPC) Standing Committee Saturday expressed concern over an abode case judged in a court in the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region ( SAR).

The NPC Standing Committee offered explanations for some clauses in the Basic Law of the Hong Kong SAR on June 26, 1999, said the spokesman.

"We have noticed that since then courts in the Hong Kong SAR have emphasized several times that these explanations are binding on courts in the Hong Kong SAR in dealing with cases related to the right of abode in Hong Kong, have made some decisions according to the explanations," said the spokesman.

"However, the ruling by the Court of Final Appeal of the Hong Kong SAR Friday on the right of a abode case involving Chong Fung Yuen did not fully correspond with the explanations and we are deeply concerned about it," the spokesman said.
