The court held that 'substantial experience in the law' in s.6(6A) must mean substantial experience in Hong Kong or English law and legal practice; the appellant's Canadian practice and his Hong Kong lecturing/internal advisory roles did not demonstrate the required experience in Hong Kong or UK law and practice, so the Law Society lawfully refused an unconditional practising certificate and properly imposed the two-year restriction.
