歷史科取消試題司法覆核被駁回 法官判詞斥教育局言論屬威嚇 不認為「強國」能被試題所傷
The compulsory question in this year’s Hong Kong Diploma of Secondary Education Examination (HKDSE) History paper asked candidates to comment on whether Japan brought more benefits than disadvantages to China between 1900 and 1945. The question sparked controversy and repeated public condemnation by the Education Bureau, after which the Hong Kong Examinations and Assessment Authority announced that it would cancel the question. A candidate sitting the History examination applied to the High Court for a judicial review, seeking to overturn the authority’s decision to disqualify the question. Justice Anderson Chow Ho-man said today that the Education Bureau’s public criticism almost certainly involved political factors and contained an intimidatory element, but the court could not confirm that the conduct amounted to an abuse of power. He ruled that the authority had not breached any procedures in making its decision, dismissed the candidate’s application and ordered the candidate to pay the authority’s legal costs.
今屆中學文憑試(DSE)歷史科必答題, 要求考生評論 1900 年至 1945 年間,「日本為中國帶來的利多於弊」。試題引起爭議及教育局多次公開譴責,考評局最終宣布取消有關試題。一名應屆歷史科考生早前入稟高等法院申請司法覆核, 要求推翻局方 DQ 試題的決定。法官高浩文今日指,教育局的公開批評幾乎確定有政治因素,有威嚇成份,但是法庭不能確認這種行為屬於濫權,而考評局在作出決定時沒有違反任何程序,故裁定考生敗訴,需向考評局支付訟費。

掛「光時」橫額遭警要求簽確認書 天水連線拒噤聲:繼續嗌
Tin Shui Wai Connection set up a street booth outside Kwai Chung Plaza in the afternoon. Nearly 30 police officers arrived and demanded that the group remove a banner bearing the words “Liberate Hong Kong, Revolution of Our Times”, saying it was suspected of violating the Hong Kong National Security Law. The officers at one point also attempted to seize the banner. They further asked members of Tin Shui Wai Connection to sign a “confirmation” stating that they had put up the banner, but the members refused. Yuen Long District Councillor Ng Kin-wai said Hong Kong people should absolutely not self-censor or silence themselves before any court ruling, and said he would not be intimidated and would “continue to shout and continue to call out”.

Today (1 July) marks the 23rd anniversary of Hong Kong’s return to Chinese sovereignty and is also the first such anniversary since the National Security Law for Hong Kong came into effect. Police had earlier objected to the July 1 march on grounds including the gathering restrictions, and the Civil Human Rights Front’s appeal to the Appeal Board on Public Meetings and Processions was rejected yesterday. Figo Chan, deputy convener of the Civil Human Rights Front, proceeded to organise the march in his personal capacity together with several pro-democracy figures. Clashes broke out in Causeway Bay, Tin Hau and Wan Chai, among other areas. Police fired tear gas and pepper rounds during the incidents, while water-cannon vehicles also fired water jets repeatedly. Police said on Facebook that, as of 10 p.m., about 370 people had been arrested. Among them, six men and four women were suspected of violating the National Security Law for Hong Kong after allegedly possessing printed materials including “Hong Kong independence” flags and “民族自強 香港獨立” slogans.
