司法機構選定兩終院上訴案下月試行網上直播 可重看但不准使用
The Judiciary announced today (22nd) that it had selected two Court of Final Appeal appeal cases, scheduled for 10 and 16 January next year, for a trial of live-streaming court proceedings online to test the technical feasibility of the arrangements. The public will be able to watch live streams of the two selected cases on the Court of Final Appeal website. The website will subsequently retain the videos for two to three days to facilitate rewatching, but the Judiciary stressed that members of the public, including the media, must not record or use any part of the live streams for any purpose.
司法機構今日(22日)宣布,已選定兩宗明年1月10及16日的終審法院上訴案件,試行在網上現場直播法庭程序,測試現場直播安排的技術可行性。公眾屆時可在終審法院網站觀看該兩宗選定案件的網上直播,網站之後亦會保存影片保存兩至三天以方便重看,但強調公眾包括傳媒不得錄製或使用現場直播片段作任何用途。

《法庭線 The Witness》周一(5 月 16 日)將正式運作。
Regardless of whether times are good or bad, court proceedings concern the public interest and are worthy of being documented. The public also has the right to know how trials and verdicts affect their own rights. To fill a gap in court reporting, a group of former court reporters founded the new media outlet The Witness, hoping to continue safeguarding the public’s right to know through faithful recording and reporting from the courts.
不論時代好壞,法庭審訊都攸關公眾利益,過程值得記錄,公眾亦有權知道審訊過程與裁決對自身權利的影響。為了填補法庭報道的空白,一群前法庭記者創立新媒體《法庭線 The Witness》,盼繼續透過在法庭忠實記錄和報道,保障公眾知情權。

【47 人案】法庭轉播系統開庭前有畫無聲 記者不滿 吳靄儀:不應限制轉播
On the third day of the 47 Defendants Case, the bail hearing continued with television broadcast only. Before the formal hearing began, the television broadcast system in Court 2, where reporters and family members were observing, briefly showed pictures without any sound, prompting dissatisfaction among reporters. Barrister Audrey Eu entered Court 2 and said the arrangement was inappropriate. She said that if the media and public could not enter the main courtroom to observe the proceedings, the sound of the broadcast system should not be restricted, adding that “they wouldn’t do this even in the High Court.”
47 案第三日提堂,保釋聆訊繼續只有電視轉播。在正式開庭之前,在記者及家屬旁聽的第二庭內,電視轉播系統一度只有畫面,沒有任何聲音,引起記者不滿。大律師吳靄儀一度進入第二庭,表示做法不妥,她指如傳媒及公眾不能進入正庭旁聽,則不應限制轉播系統的聲音,並指「喺 High Court(高等法院)都唔會咁」。
