| Abstract | The Government's long awaited environmental impact assessment legislation was enacted in February 1997. Twenty years after legislation was first suggested in Hong Kong it is now becoming a reality. The legislation, perhaps more than any other lately introduced by the government pertaining to the environment, will have a significant effect on qualifying developments. In the article, the author looks at the background, the new procedures and the consequences for developers. |
