Butterworths Hong Kong Discrimination Law Handbook is a detailed work of reference on the Sex Discrimination Ordinance (Cap 480), Disability Discrimination Ordinance (Cap 487), Family Status Discrimination Ordinance (Cap 527) and Race Discrimination Ordinance (Cap 602). This Handbook reproduces the text of the Ordinances together with all relevant subsidiary legislation as currently in force along with section-by-section annotations and examines significant judicial decisions and rules of the court. The annotations provide definitions of words and phrases, discussions on practical aspects and contentious issues with reference to each section, and other authoritative materials.
This series has been cited with authority in over a hundred court cases in the Hong Kong Court of First Instance, the Court of Appeal and the Court of Final Appeal. This Handbook is an invaluable source of information for practitioners, legal advisers, students, and anyone interested in the laws governing discrimination in Hong Kong.
