3.我們已審視及考慮於不同司法管轄區下的一地兩檢安排。所有這樣的安排均要求東道國把車站的一個區域的主權轉移至毗鄰的國家,以使毗鄰國家的官員行使他們的權力。

4. 然而,我們認為該共識並不符合現行的《基本法》。原因如下:

$ R$ V# I2 P  b8 s  ?2 itvb now,tvbnow,bttvb《基本法》第18條禁止地法律於香港實施,而中華人民共和國移民和海關法例或法規無法通過《基本法》附件三引入香港。《基本法》第154條訂明該權力是屬於香港自治範圍的。公仔箱論壇3 R8 |6 @7 A' H& f* L

因此,令共識符合《基本法》的唯一方法是修改《基本法》第18和22條,例如訂立例外情況,容許香港特別行政區政府在指定領土内不引用《基本法》,以便地官員於香港特別行政區之行使中華人民共和國移民、海關及關法例

7.不論其經濟及交通運輸效益,高鐵項目既已耗用850億港元的納人公帑,法政匯思理解一地兩檢的安排問題必須得到解決。我們現正探討除了讓地執法人員來港執法以外,是否有其他法律上可行的辦法可達至相同的目的,並將會適時發表研究結果。

1. On 21st November 2015, Secretary for Justice, Rimsky Yuen, and Secretary for Transport and Housing, Anthony Cheung, met with Hong Kong and Macao Affairs Office officials in Beijing to discuss the legal framework regarding the co-location arrangement (“Co-location Arrangement”) at Hong Kong section of Guangzhou-Shenzhen-Hong Kong Express Rail Link (“Express Rail Link”).

2. The Secretary for Justice confirmed after the meeting that parties had reached a consensus to enable a Co-Location Arrangement, and which would allow Mainland officials to exercise powers under PRC laws within the Hong Kong SAR (“Consensus”).  As with the same meeting on 20th May 2015, the Secretary for Justice did not elaborate on details of the Consensus but suggested that such measures will be consistent with the Basic Law.  The Secretary for Justice said that Hong Kong and Mainland Chinese officials will discuss the issues again in more detail early in 2016.

3. We have reviewed and considered various forms of Co-Location Arrangements in different jurisdictions.  All such arrangements require the host states to transfer sovereignty in an area of the station to the adjoining state, for the adjoining state's officials to exercise their powers.
" B; N9 ]* i; R' D0 s" M4 p5 n. n3 `6 y7 I
4. However, we consider that the Consensus will be inconsistent with the Basic Law as currently implemented.  This is because:. \9 o; j" ]  R4 _7 n  l
Article 18 HKBL prohibits the exercise of mainland law in Hong Kong and PRC Immigration and Customs laws or regulations cannot be introduced through Annex III as these powers are expressly within Hong Kong's autonomy under Article 154 HKBL.   j8 Y1 o5 _4 p
Thus, the only way any Consensus can be made to conform with the Basic Law would be to have Articles 18 and 22 HKBL amended, such as to carve out exceptions to enable the Hong Kong SAR Government to disapply the Basic Law to designated territories so as to enable Mainland officials to exercise PRC Laws on immigration, customs and excise within the Hong Kong SAR.- {6 d4 y3 s4 f. |

' \5 u% n% j$ I- n5.39.217.765. As lawyers, we appreciate that no constitutional text is immutable to change or amendment.  The Basic Law itself is described by our Courts as a living instrument.  However, when changes are to be made to a constitution, especially when these changes concern the transfer of jurisdictional power and the application of foreign law, such changes must require serious justification and stringent scrutiny. 8 O' W, L2 d: V& l) _

To amend the Basic Law for the purpose of shaving a few minutes off travel time is in our view, wholly unnecessary and completely devoid of common sense.  Similarly and in addition, any attempt at implementing any Consensus that involves any twisting or contorting of the clear text and structure of the Basic Law would cause immense harm to the credibility of the Basic Law as Hong Kong’s constitutional document, as well as the rule of law.

7. Having incurred over HK$85 billion of tax-payer money to construct the Express Rail Link, irrespective of the economic or logistical merits of this project, the Progressive Lawyers Group recognize that the issue of Co-Location Arrangement will have to be resolved. We are currently exploring whether there can be legal alternatives to Mainland officials exercising powers in Hong Kong that can substantially achieve the same objectives, and will make our conclusions public at an appropriate time."
