The Chief Secretary for Administration, Matthew Cheung, says the government is observing, and not monitoring, legislators. Last Tuesday, the Democratic Party's Ted Hui grabbed a female Security Bureau official's phone in the Legislative Council, sparking controversy, not only over his actions, but also over the way the government was keeping an eye on legislators.
Cheung says the work helps to ensure a quorum and means meetings run more smoothly. He said legislators were not disturbed and their privacy was not invaded. In a letter to the Legislative Council chairman, he called for all officers to be protected.
The Democratic Party has suspended Hui's membership and he faces censure by Legco and the possible loss of his seat.
