The Department of Justice of the Government of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region announced the establishment of the "Rule of Law Education Steering Committee" on the 2nd to strengthen the rule of law education and training in Hong Kong in an all-round way. The establishment of the "Rule of Law Education Steering Committee" is a key measure promoted by the Department of Justice in the 2022 policy address. The Committee, chaired by the Secretary for Justice, Lin Dingguo, and composed of the Director of the relevant policy bureaux of the SAR Government, representatives of the judicial and legal circles and the law school, provides advice and assistance to the Secretary for Justice in promoting the strategy and projects of rule of law education, and promotes cooperation between government departments and relevant non-governmental organizations. The Committee will provide advice and assistance to the upcoming "Rule of Law Education Leader Training Program" of the Department of Justice. The plan aims to train "trainers" at different levels of the community and improve their ability to promote consistent and correct information about the rule of law to the public. The training focuses on the concept of rule of law, covering the Constitution, the Basic Law, the National Security Law of Hong Kong, and the general legal system of Hong Kong. Lin Dingguo said that in order to consolidate the confidence of all sectors of society in the legal and judicial system, it is necessary to make the public correctly understand and understand the common law system and the rule of law system of Hong Kong under the "one country, two systems" through the intensive work of rule of law education. He looked forward to working actively with the members of the committee to implement the "rule of law education leader training plan", and expected the "trainers" to go into the community to promote the rule of law in the second half of this year, so that the public can consciously become the guardian of the rule of law, and jointly tell the story of the rule of law in Hong Kong.
