香港回归以来立法会议事规则的状况

为了纪念香港回归20周年,本刊编辑部邀请香港大学的陈弘毅教授组织了这个笔谈。陈弘毅教授指出,基本法在过去20年的实施总体上是成功的,但"一国两制"中"两制"的差异在有些方面引致某些不同意见的出现,是正常的。香港特区立法会前法律顾问马耀添讨论了香港立法会《议事规则》的演变,指出《议事规则》必须因时制宜、与时并进。罗沛然大律师回顾了香港法院如何构建关于《基本法》的判例体系,以及香港终审法院与全国人大常委会之间的互动,并指出"一国"原则可见于香港特别行政区的司法实践。傅华伶教授探讨了香港和内地的司法协助的发展,并指出更紧密的合作是不可避免的历史趋势,香港需要积极主动地配合。

To commemorate the 20 th anniversary of the Hong Kong'return, Hong Kong and Macao Journal invited Professor Albert H.Y. Chen of the University of Hong Kong to organise this forum. Professor Chen points out that generally speaking, the Basic Law has been successfully implemented in the last two decades. There were occasional tensions and controversies due to the difference between the'Two systems'in'One Country, Two Systems', which were natural and inevitable. Jimmy Ma, former Legal Advisor to the Hong Kong Legislative Council, discusses the evolution of the Rules of Procedure of Leg Co and the powers of the Leg Co President. He points out that the Rules of Procedure should develop in accordance with changing circumstances. Barrister P.Y. Lo explains how the Hong Kong courts have developed a body of case law concerning the Basic Law, and discusses the interaction between the Hong Kong Court of Final Appeal and the NPC Standing Committee. He points out that the'One Country'principle is evident in the judicial practice of the Hong Kong SAR. Finally, Professor Fu Hualing analyses the development of judicial cooperation between Hong Kong and China's Mainland. He points out that there is a historical trend towards closer cooperation in which Hong Kong should play an active role.
