The Hong Kong Special Administrative Region Government's fourth report under the Convention against Torture & Other Cruel, Inhuman or Degrading Treatment or Punishment is now available on the Constitutional & Mainland Affairs Bureau’s website.

The Hong Kong SAR Government said today its report constitutes part of the report submitted by the People's Republic of China under the convention.

The report sets out the progress made up until May 2024 in implementing the convention, after the Hong Kong SAR's submission of its previous report to the United Nations Committee against Torture in June 2013.

It also responds to the committee’s concluding observations following a meeting on the previous report in November 2015.

The report will be discussed by the committee at a future meeting.
