A member of the National People's Congress Standing Committee, Tam Yiu-chung said he doesn't believe Beijing will tighten its policies towards Hong Kong as a result of the recent anti-extradition protests.

Speaking on an RTHK radio programme, Tam said he doesn't believe the central government will change its policy just because of just one issue.

He added that he believes Beijing understands that under the One Country, Two Systems policy, people are bound to have different opinions and views on different issues.

He condemned the storming in of the Legislative Council by protesters on Monday.

He said young people are free to express their dissatisfaction with the government, but they must consider the method used.
