Henry C K Liu: Hong Kong appeal court in the dock
To strengthen the rule of law in the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region (HKSAR) and to prevent the use of the law for veiled geopolitical purposes, there is a need to limit the jurisdiction of the Hong Kong Court of Final Appeal (CFA) to legal issues; and to create a new Basic Law Constitutional Council in Beijing with exclusive jurisdiction over constitutional issues. The Standing Committee of the National People’s Congress (NPCSC) should amend the Basic Law, Hong Kong’s mini-constitution, to eliminate once and for all any ambiguity about Chinese sovereignty over Hong Kong.
