Background
Because prosecution records in Hong Kong are not computerised, and since the Summary Offences Ordinance encompasses some 40 minor nuisance offences, it has not been possible within the
time available to provide details of how many people in Hong Kong have been charged under the Ordinance in the past five years. The information sought can only be made available by an
exhaustive manual analysis of each police district's records
entailing the redeployment of personnel from normal policing
duties.
