Frank Ching of HK Observers: The BLCC's draft constitution is an important document and should have an English version even if it has nothing to do with the British Government.
Statement issued by four labour and community groups - HK Forum, Association for Democracy and Justice, Christian Industrial Committee and the Federation of Civil
Service Unions: The
BLCC's draft constitution does not clearly spell out powers of the BLCC and as a result there is a danger that the BLCC may become subordinate to the drafting committee.
Drafting committee member Rev. Peter Kwong (in an interview with Ta Kung Pao): Democratic consultation will help ensure that the BLCC members will be fully
representative.
