Section 22 of the Securities and Futures Ordinance (Cap 571) is constitutional and operates to bar civil liability claims against The Stock Exchange of Hong Kong and persons acting on its behalf for acts or omissions done in good faith; the plaintiff failed to plead or adduce evidence of bad faith sufficient to found an arguable claim against SEHK or Ms Chan, therefore the pleadings against them are struck out and the claims dismissed; related interlocutory applications against SEHK and Ms Chan are dismissed and costs follow the event.
