The Standing Committee of the National People’s Congress announced today (November 11) that it has made a decision on the membership of the Hong Kong Legislative Council because it promotes or supports the "Hong Kong independence" claim, refuses to recognize the state's ownership and exercise of sovereignty over Hong Kong, and seeks foreign or foreign forces to interfere in the affairs of the SAR. Acts, once recognized in accordance with the law, immediately lose the qualifications of members of the Legislative Council.
The Hong Kong Government immediately announced that in the Legislative Council elections scheduled for September this year, the current legislators Yang Yueqiao, Guo Rongkeng, Guo Jiaqi, and Liang Jichang, who were ruled to be invalid in the nomination, immediately lost their qualifications as members of the Legislative Council.
The Standing Committee of the National People's Congress mentioned in its decision that the motion was proposed at the request of the chief executive.
Chief Executive Carrie Lam Cheng Yuet-ngor met with reporters at the government headquarters at 2:30 pm to explain the relevant decisions.
Carrie Lam pointed out that the Standing Committee of the National People's Congress has the power to interpret the Basic Law and make decisions in accordance with the law, which have legal effect.
She pointed out that when the National People's Congress interpreted Article 104 of the Basic Law in 2016, it clearly stipulated that violations of the oath will still be subject to the regulations.

[14:49] Chief Executive Carrie Lam Cheng Yuet-ngor stated that the Standing Committee of the National People’s Congress passed a decision on the qualifications of the legislature after deliberation. She must reiterate that the National People’s Congress is the highest authority in China and the Standing Committee of the National People’s Congress is a permanent body of the National People’s Congress and has the right to When Hong Kong encounters constitutional issues in the implementation of the Basic Law, it shall deal with it in accordance with the law, and make a decision in accordance with the law, and the decision shall have legal power.
Lam Cheng said that this time the NPC is based on the membership qualifications after the extension, and the government cannot decide on the issue, but must be dealt with at the constitutional level.
She pointed out that logically speaking, those who do not meet the election requirements and are ruled that the nomination are invalid are naturally not eligible to serve as members.
