Hong Kong Moves Towards Open Access to Authenticated Legal Information

---

Abstract:
Hong Kong SAR (Special Administrative Region)’s legal system has retained its common law
system developed during its colonial days under UK rule. The combination of legislative law
and judge made law has been made available online in various commercial, academic and
government sources. Government sources though to date for legislation are not “official”
but recent developments by the Department of Justice aim to address this issue and this paper
will outline the various Government sources of Hong Kong law online and this new
development towards authentication of online legislation.
Part I outlines the bilingual legal system of Hong Kong and its sources of law. Part II
describes the various sources in which legislation and court judgments are available. Part
III discusses the recent Government initiative in moving towards digital authentication.

Keywords: Open access, Authenticated legal information, Digital authentication, Hong Kong, Bilingual
