HKSAR Government reports to Central Authorities on recent work of Government
******************************************************************************
The HKSAR Government fully, faithfully and resolutely implements the principle of "one country, two systems" in accordance with the Constitution and the Basic Law. The Chief Executive, Mr John Lee, maintains effective communication with the Central Authorities on the work of the Government of the HKSAR in performing his duties as the Chief Executive, with a view to enabling the Central Authorities to comprehensively understand and grasp the actual situation of Hong Kong, and ensuring the successful implementation of the principles of "one country, two systems", "Hong Kong people administering Hong Kong" and a high degree of autonomy in the HKSAR.
The current term of District Councils will expire by the end of this year. Under the Chief Executive's instructions, the Home and Youth Affairs Bureau and the Constitutional and Mainland Affairs Bureau have commenced a review on district administration to ensure that future arrangements will be in conformity with the Basic Law, in adherence to the principle of "patriots administering Hong Kong", and conducive to enhancing governance efficacy at the district level. The concerned bureaux of the HKSAR Government will continue the relevant review, and announce details in due course.
