HKGCC Circular - 2011 Election Committee Subsector Elections

Dear Member,

Upon the request of Registration and Electoral Office, we hereby notify you that the Election Committee Subsector Elections will be held on 11 December 2011.

According to section 30(1)(a) of the Schedule to the Chief Executive Election Ordinance (Cap. 569), a person/body will be disqualified from voting at an election of a subsector if he/the body has ceased to be eligible to be registered as a voter in the subsector.  In addition, according to section 16(1)(a) of the Elections (Corrupt and Illegal Conduct) Ordinance (Cap. 554), a person engages in corrupt conduct at an election if he votes at the election knowing that he is not entitled to do so.  He is liable on conviction to a fine of up to $500,000 and to imprisonment for a maximum of 7 years.

In this connection, if you have ceased to be eligible for registration as a voter for the subsector for which you are currently registered, you must not vote at the 2011 Election Committee Subsector Elections.

Yours sincerely,

Christina Lau
