Public Consultation on HK Anti-Spam Bill

First published: January 2006

Hong Kong’s Secretary for Commerce, Industry and Technology (SCIT), John Tsang, has announced the start of public consultation on the "Unsolicited Electronic Messages Bill".

Key features of the Government’s approach are the adoption of an opt-out regime, extra-territoriality for messages with a “Hong Kong connection”, and a central “do not call register” that would not cover email.

Please make your opinions known to the Commerce, Industry and Technology Bureau.
