要求撤更正指示上诉高庭 民主党申请公堂审理

去年12月14日,人力部援引《防止网络假信息和防止网络操纵法案》(POFMA),向民主党发布的三则贴文和文章发出更正指示。

由于要求人力部长撤回更正指示被驳回,民主党正式上诉高庭并定在本月16日审理。

民主党在昨日(13日)更新近况,指该党将向法官争取,让他们的上诉在公堂(open court)审理。

民主党在文告中指出,此案涉及公共利益,且《防假消息法》也广受在野党和公民社会的诟病,更何况外籍PMET课题亦牵动国人神经。

该党认为,有鉴于上述课题可能成为来届选举的热门议题,该党将向法官申请在公堂审理,让群众亦有机会旁听。

诚如英国枢密院司法委员会阿特金勋爵所言:“公开乃是司法精神之根本,是对执行力的最有力鞭策,也是所有防止不法行为的最可靠保证。”

本月6日,人力部表示“经过谨慎考量”,,认为民主党的申请没有充分理据,故此拒绝撤回指示。不过并未详细解释,民主党的申请为何理据不足。

民主党也不甘示弱回应,人力部也无法为他们的决定提出理据,并指该党提出申请时,已列出详细理由,包括人力部数据分析和该党贴文的对比。

人力部反驳本地PMET的就业率自2015年实则逐步增长;且并没有出现本地PMET裁员增加的趋势。

民主党则指出,该党文章指的是“失业”( “unemployment”),却被人力部误植为“裁员”(”retrenchment”),张冠李戴,该党却为此被人力部指控发布“虚假事实”。
