The HKSAR Government all along has strictly followed the established

and legal principles established by the Court. The HKSAR Government will
conduct regular and timely review of each detention case in accordance
with the prevailing mechanisms to determine whether an individual should

the results of the review with justifications, and conduct an interview
with the person concerned to explain the relevant situation.
