Details

Judicial Review in Hong Kong – Third Edition traces and analyses the development of judicial review since the earliest days of the supervisory jurisdiction in Hong Kong, including key developments since the previous edition in 2014. The proliferation of challenges in areas such as planning and environment, financial regulation, and competition raises novel issues, which are examined in detail. An earlier edition of this work has been cited with approval by the Court. It will be a valuable source for judges and judicial officers, practitioners, and academics alike. This edition endeavours to state the law as at March 2025.
