The report of the Supervisory Commission covered many important events in the anti-revision movement. Regarding the 6.12 mansion incident of CITIC Tower, the Supervisory Committee raised questions about this, "The question is whether it is necessary and appropriate to use tear gas in the circumstances." It is recommended that the police review the continued use of tear gas and evaluate the possibility of alternative solutions. The proposal also mentioned that if the police think it is necessary to terminate the rally, they should first discuss with the rally organizer and give sufficient time and instructions to allow the rally to leave along the escape route.
As for the 7.21 incident, the report quoted the police as saying that during the gathering of people in white in Fengyou North Street, they did not disperse because they did not "undermine social peace or criminal behavior." This incident led to the "police black collusion" accusation that the "rumor" was very popular, because the police did not have an early opportunity to clarify, making the accusation a slogan for future demonstrations. The IPCC report also mentioned that "8.31 killing people" was a rumor, but criticized the police, fire department, HA and MTR for their slow response, and delayed the rumor until 10 days later. They believed that if the police can first refute, it can prevent the rumor from being online. Emergence, as well as monthly "commemorative events" and demonstration conflicts.
Chief Executive Lin Zhengyue said that he would accept the report. There will be several incidents to be prioritized in the future, including the relationship between the police and the media, and the call sign arrangement for police officers to perform their duties. Cen Zijie rebuked the report for "supporting the police to come forward", saying that the content of the report is full of bias. Although there is no obvious analysis, the words have been carefully selected. Journalists, citizens, and firefighters have criticized, but they have not criticized the police, the chief executive Lin Zhengyue and the supervisor. The police will themselves. Legislator Lin Zhuoting criticized the report for distorting the facts and favoring the police, diluting the violence of the white man and the police's dereliction of duty. Later, he even tore the report of the IPCC as a reporter.
