Offences under ss.23 and 25 of the Employment Ordinance are continuing offences from the expiry of the seven-day statutory payment period until payment is made; accordingly informations based on such continuing breaches are not necessarily time-barred by s.26 of the Magistrates Ordinance if the breach continued up to the laying of the information, and the magistrate's contrary ruling was incorrect.
