Her Majesty's Covernment and the Hong Kong Government keep the position regarding the application of International Labour Conventions in Hong Kong under active review. Completion of the Hong Kong Government's current legis- lative programme would make it possible for some Conventions at present applied with modifications to be applied in full and for other Conventions which are not yet applied to be applied with modifications. The Hong Kong Government are also currently examining further Conventions with a view to making improvements in subsequent legislative programmes.
