LI PO CHUN CHARITABLE TRUST FUND (AMENDMENT) BILL 1989

Clauses 1 to 4 were agreed to.

ROAD TRAFFIC (AMENDMENT) (NO. 2) BILL 1989

Clauses 1 and 2 were agreed to.

TELECOMMUNICATION (AMENDMET) BILL 1989

Clauses 1, 2 and 4 were agreed to.

Clause 3

MISS LEUNG: Sir I move that clause 3 be amended as set out under my name in the paper circulated to Members.

The amendment seeks to delete the term "unincorporated body" under the definition of corporation under new section 13A(1). This will avoid unnecessary legal complications as to whether the controls proposed under the scheme for unincorporated bodies will be as stringent as those for corporations and companies while not adversely affecting the implementation of the Bill.

None the less, we have also requested the Administration to consider in greater detail what specific provisions should be devised to cater for unincorporated bodies when it reviews all the existing broadcasting laws and consolidates them into an omnibus Ordinance.

With these reamrks, Sir, I beg to move.

Proposed amendment

Clause 3

That clause 3 be amended, in the new section 13A(1), in the definition of "corporation" by deleting "or an unincorporated body".
