The Court held the NPCSC Interpretation was valid, binding and retrospective; applying BL104, the ODO and the Interpretation the appellant’s conduct objectively failed the Exact Form and Content and Solemnity requirements and thus amounted to declining or neglecting to take the LegCo oath; the consequence is immediate disqualification and no right to retake the oath; the appeal is dismissed.
