#OMG: Three statements by the #hkgov in one night:
1) liaison office in hk is covered by #basiclaw article 22
2) a statement replaced, and removed anything related to article 22
3) liaison office in hk is set up by the central gov, not those “departments” mentioned in article 22

Earlier on Friday, the liaison office already rebuted, arguing the two agencies were not circumscribed by Article 22 of the #BasicLaw, which states no department directly under the central gov may interfere in local matters.
