Leave to apply for judicial review is to be granted only if the applicant's case is reasonably arguable; the court found no reasonably arguable case based solely on s6(a) DDO aided by the Code or legislative correspondence, but found that claims under s6(b) DDO and constitutional provisions (Basic Law art 25 and ICCPR art 26 read with Basic Law art 136) could be reasonably arguable on the facts before the court; consequently the court will permit amendment of the pleadings and further submissions and evidence before deciding on leave.
