SHA continues to hold briefing sessions on improvements to electoral system of Hong Kong (with photos/video)
******************************************************************************************
     The Secretary for Home Affairs, Mr Caspar Tsui, today (April 8) held five briefing sessions and met with representatives of the New Territories Association of Societies, the Hong Kong Island Federation, as well as representatives of District Fight Crime Committees, District Fire Safety Committees and Area Committees of Eastern District, Tai Po District, North District and Kwai Tsing District to brief them on the amended Annex I to the Basic Law on Method for the Selection of the Chief Executive of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region (HKSAR) and Annex II to the Basic Law on Method for the Formation of the Legislative Council of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region and its Voting Procedures as approved by the Standing Committee of the National People's Congress, and listen to their opinions.
 
     Mr Tsui said "patriots administering Hong Kong" is a natural and essential condition for the successful and faithful implementation of "one country, two systems". Through improving the electoral system of the HKSAR, this principle can be fully implemented with institutional safeguards and the overall interests of Hong Kong's society can be effectively safeguarded, which are conducive to the stable development of Hong Kong's democracy.
 
     He appealed to the attendees to fully support and co-operate with the Government in the work of improving the electoral system, and said that he will continue to extensively explain the matters to the public such that various sectors of the community will have a better understanding on the improvements to the electoral system and will recognise the necessity and urgency of them.
