Database of Hong Kong ordinances, subsidiary legislation and constitutional instruments in Chinese and English, maintained by the Hong Kong Department of Justice. Has current and historical consolidated legislation from 30 June 1997 onwards, together with original legislation - as published in the Gazette - from 2000 onwards. Official verified pdf versions are gradually being uploaded and will eventually supersede the looseleaf Laws of Hong Kong. The Constitution of the People's Republic of China (PRC), the Basic Law of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region and PRC laws that apply in Hong Kong are found under 'Others' in the Chapter Number Index. Hong Kong bills are also available, as published in Legal Supplement 3 and Supplement 6 to the Gazette. There are basic and advanced search facilities and the laws can be browsed by title, subject, year or chapter number. Bilingual legal glossaries and information about the drafting of legislation are provided on the Useful Information page. The e-Legislation website was launched in February 2017 and replaces the old Bilingual Laws Information System (BLIS).
