Section 27(1A)(a) must be read in light of the Hong Kong meaning of "practised as a barrister" as reflected in the Hong Kong Bar Code 1983, which excludes employed barristers; changes in the English Bar Code do not alter the statutory requirement; therefore the applicant who was an employed barrister in the UK did not satisfy s.27(1A)(a) and his application for admission must be refused.
