Foundational Principles of the Hong Kong National Security Law and the Institutions Established《香港國安法》的基本原則及其設⽴的機構

《香港國家安全法》是一部極為特殊的法律。 雖然不是在香港特區制定,但完全是針對香港的“特別情形”而制定,力求實現頗具“香港特色”的目標。 這部法律包含不少“中國內地”法律概念,但決不能簡單移植或挪用內地刑法或刑事程序方面的理論、方法與標準,而是應該在尊重立法意圖的前提下,盡力與香港特區既有的法律制度形成協調與配合的關係,在維護國家安全與保障基本權利之間取得平衡。 本次講座將會著重介紹國安法的特殊之處,以及在執行或司法裁判之中值得注意的一些問題。
The Hong Kong National Security Law is an exceptionally distinctive legislation. Although not enacted within the Hong Kong SAR, it has been specifically tailored to address Hong Kong’s “unique circumstances” and aims to achieve objectives with “Hong Kong characteristics”. This law incorporates numerous “Mainland China” legal concepts, but it is essential not to merely transplant or misapply the theories, methods, and standards of mainland criminal law or criminal procedure. Instead, we should strive to maintain consistency and collaboration with the existing laws of the Hong Kong SAR while respecting the legislative intent, and striking a balance between safeguarding national security and protecting fundamental rights. This lecture will focus on the unique aspects of the Hong Kong National Security Law and discuss pertinent issues to consider in its implementation and judicial adjudication.
