This authoritative work is the essential reference source for all concerned with Hong Kong’s constitutional order created under the Basic Law.
In the 13 years since the passing of sovereignty, a large body of public law has developed. These cases have shaped the interpretation of the Basic Law’s articles and in turn the ways in which a wide range of legislative provisions are interpreted.
Hong Kong Basic Law Annotations and Commentary represents a watershed in terms of how the Basic Law will be cited and referred to, as a pre-eminent annotated work to stand beside Hong Kong Civil Procedure: The White Book.
