English Subject Index to Ordinances
ENGLISH SUBJECT INDEX TO ORDINANCES
This English Index classifies the Ordinances published in the current Loose-leaf Edition of the Laws of Hong Kong (Issue 52) in accordance with their general
subject-matter. The Ordinances listed under a particular subject-heading have been selected on the basis of the legal subject to which they relate (for example,
INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY and TORT LAW) or the subject-matter indicated by either the long or short titles of those Ordinances (for example, DANGEROUS
GOODS and PARKS). Many Ordinances are listed under more than one subject-heading. Moreover, as this Index is arranged in alphabetical order, which makes
specific subjects easier to locate, more subject-headings are contained in this English Index than in the Chinese Subject Index. This Index is intended to serve only as
a general guide to readers. It does not purport to be a comprehensive index of every subject covered by each Ordinance.
