Policy Address

266. The Government attaches great importance to Basic Law promotion and education. The Basic Law Promotion Steering Committee has been co-ordinating and overseeing the work in this area. Besides targeting the general public, the committee particularly focuses its attention on schools, major sectors and groups such as the industrial, commercial and professional sectors and civil service bodies, as well as overseas promotion.

267. The current-term Government has strengthened its efforts to promote the principle of “one country, two systems” and the Basic Law by organising seminars, talks and thematic exhibitions. Such activities enable people from different walks of life to gain a correct, comprehensive and in-depth understanding of the complete concept of “one country, two systems”, and deepen their understanding of the relationship between the Central Authorities and the HKSAR under the Basic Law. In addition, the current-term Government has stepped up efforts on Basic Law promotion and education for students and young people, providing a wide variety of learning packages for schools and organising extra-curricular activities.
