Legal Measures to Address Mainland Births in Hong Kong
With the rising number of children born in Hong Kong whose parents are both not Hong Kong permanent residents, there seems to be a consensus that this source of "new blood" of Hong Kong's population must be stopped.

Chief Executive-elect Leung Chun-ying has already indicated that he will adopt legal measure instead of administrative measures to deal with the problem once and for all. However, different legal measures may give rise to different side effects or incur different social costs in solving the problem. There are now several proposals in the "market" put forward by different legal experts and politicians. What are the rationales behind each of the proposals? What may be the effects or costs of the proposals? How to choose among these different proposals?

Speakers in the Symposium will present their views on these questions. The Symposium aims to provide a platform of deliberation for different viewpoints hoping that a consensus could be reached as at least insights can be generated through the discussion.

Speakers include:
- Professor Johannes M. M. CHAN, S.C., Dean, Faculty of Law, HKU
- Professor Albert H. Y. CHEN, Chan Professor in Constitutional Law, Faculty of Law, HKU and Member of the Committee for the Basic Law
- Mr. Johnny MOK, S.C., Member of the Committee for the Basic Law
- Hon Alan Kah-kit LEONG, S.C., Member of the Legislative Council and Party Leader of the Civic Party
- Mr. Benny Y. T. TAI, Associate Professor, Faculty of Law, HKU

Moderator: Mr. Eric Cheung, Assistant Professor, Faculty of Law, HKU

Date: June 9, 2012 (Saturday)
Time: 9:30 am - 1:00 pm
Venue: Rayson Huang Theatre, The University of Hong Kong
Language: English
