The Appeal Committee held that s7 of the RFREO does not interfere with the right to hold opinions (Article 16(1)); the provision restricts only a mode of expression and therefore engages freedom of expression which Ng Kung Siu correctly held can be justified under Article 16(3) by reference to ordre public; there was no material change in circumstances or error of law warranting departure from Ng Kung Siu; applications for leave were dismissed and costs ordered against the applicants.
