Civil Servants Required to Take Oath; Patrick Nip Says They Must Mind Conduct Outside Work
政府將於7月1日起,要求新入職公務員宣誓擁護《基本法》及效忠香港特別行政區,現職公務員亦要分階段宣誓及簽署文件。公務員事務局局長聶德權今日出席立法會公務員及資助機構員工事務委員會時指,公務員在工餘時間亦必須注意言行,「唔會話係你返工嘅時候就有呢樣嘢,放咗工嘅時間就不受影響,你始終都係有公務員呢個身份。」
Starting on 1 July, the Government will require newly recruited civil servants to swear allegiance to the Basic Law and the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region. Serving civil servants will also be required to take the oath and sign documents in phases. Speaking today at a meeting of the Legislative Council Panel on Public Service and Subvented Sector Employees, Secretary for the Civil Service Patrick Nip Tak-kuen said civil servants must also pay attention to their words and conduct outside working hours. “It won’t be that this applies when you are at work, but after work you are unaffected; you still have the identity of a civil servant.”

The pro-democracy camp will hold a two-day Legislative Council primary election starting tomorrow. The Police Cyber Security and Technology Crime Investigation Bureau searched the Hong Kong Public Opinion Research Institute’s office tonight under a warrant and seized computers and documents. Chung Kim-wah, the institute’s deputy chief executive, arrived at the office that evening and said the police search would not affect the primary, stressing that the computers taken were part of a routine investigation and unrelated to the primary.
