The Legislative Council, which has been extended for no less than one year, kicked off today (14). It was decided that the democrats who stayed behind in the parliament had already launched a "number-pointing" offensive and counted at least five quorums in the morning.
The originally scheduled "policy address" was postponed, and the first day of the resumption of the Legislative Council was changed to consider four bills that were not processed in the previous year.
The Labour Party Zhang Chaoxiong stated that today’s parliament is in violation of the Basic Law, and he said he should not continue to speak here. “It’s too much to be forced to do business.” Legislative Council Chairman Liang Junyan immediately said that if the parliament is deemed illegal, you can leave. In this debate, the establishment was applauded.
During the meeting, the pro-democracy party repeatedly asked for the number of people to be calculated. Xie Weiquan criticized the construction, survey, urban planning, and garden realms. If the Panminist continues to stay and receive remuneration, he should do practical things. The Chairman, however, continues to condone the police "abusing power."
Zhang Chaoxiong: Members have the responsibility to question the "policy address" Liang Junyan asks why he obstructed last year
The Legislative Council considered the Statutory Law (Miscellaneous Provisions) Bill 2019 this morning. In order to expedite the handling of civil cases, especially non-refoulement claims, the Judiciary proposes to amend part of the judicial review permit procedures in the Court of Appeal in the High Court Ordinance. Three judges can be replaced by two judges to handle the procedure.
Zhang Chaoxiong said in his speech that there are three "nots" in today's meeting. The first is that he should not still be speaking in Parliament. He pointed out that the Basic Law stipulates that the term of office of members is four years. The current legislative council has long ended. The current parliament is "illegal." "Unconstitutional", "enterprise is compelled to do so," and questioned the government's postponement of elections because of fear of losing.
Chairman Liang Junyan retorted, if you think this council is illegal, please leave, you don't need to debate here, there is institutional clap support.
Zhang Chaoxiong continued to speak, saying that the second "should not" is that today’s meeting was originally scheduled to publish the "policy address". Members are also responsible for questioning. Liang Junyan retorted that he had postponed the "policy address" to explain in a circular and asked Zhang Ruo. I remember that Members have a constitutional responsibility to listen to the "Policy Address". Why did the democrats obstruct the publication of the report last year.
Zhang Chaoxiong argued that he was hospitalized last year due to a herniated intervertebral disc, without any hindrance, causing an uproar among the members present.
Zhang Chaoxiong also pointed out that the third should not be in response to the epidemic. The parliament should discuss matters that are beneficial to people's livelihood and society, and the "statutory law" should not be reviewed first in terms of priority.
He also criticized that the "policy address" was suddenly removed, reflecting that the Legislative Council is no longer a Hong Kong parliament, and the chief executive is no longer the chief executive of Hong Kong people.
Xie Weiquan urges the collection of rewards to do practical things
Xie Weiquan reprimanded the democrats for "speaking people do not speak for themselves." The past year wasted 7 months in electing the chairman of the meeting, and a large number of non-controversial bills could not be passed. This is the behavior that really affects people's livelihood.
During Xie Weiquan's speech, Xu Zhifeng, the Democratic Party, twice proposed an algorithm to determine the number of people. Xie later suggested that if the Panmin stayed in the parliament and received remuneration, he would use his time to do practical things instead of playing the clock.
Lin Cheuk Ting immediately criticized Tse Weiquan, as the vice chairman of the IPCC, for not doing a good job of monitoring. "You Xie Weiquan is duty-bound!"
