The Ordinance regulates incorporated and unincorporated associations of persons (broadly defined as "societies") and requires registrations (unless regulated under a different ordinance or otherwise exempted). In other words, it prohibits informal or secret societies and poses limits to freedom of association. It also prohibits triad societies and modern successor gangs. The legislative history of the Societies Ordinance is similar to the Public Order Ordinance. They were gradually relaxed, up to the 1992 when they were brought in line with international human rights standards by the outgoing government and the second last Legislative Council (1992–1995). Upon Hong Kong handover, the human rights amendments in the 1990s were reverted by the NPCSC of China. History Colonial period The Societies Ordinance was first introduced in 1911, replacing the ...
