The Court refused certification because the questions were not reasonably arguable: properly construed s17(c) LC(PP)O applies to members, LegCo can by statute confer penal jurisdiction on the courts over members for conduct covered by s17(c), s3 does not protect conduct falling within s17(c), and these provisions are constitutional and consistent with separation of powers and the non-intervention principle.
