Hong Kong's Home and Youth Affairs Bureau said it is studying alternatives to proposals that would have limited proxy votes and restricted attendance at owners' meetings to relatives, after homeowners resisted the measures during a month-long public consultation.
The bureau set out the consultation findings in a paper submitted to the Legislative Council on November 3, 2026. The amendments to the Buildings Management Ordinance form part of proposed reforms drawn up after the Wang Fuk Court fire in Tai Po.
The report did not give the number of responses to the consultation, the alternatives under consideration, or a timetable for revised proposals.
