<p>The record turnout for the Hong Kong Legislative Council elections held in September,
and the wide range of parties now represented in the Legislative Council, reflect

working constructively with the government, to ensure that Hong Kong remains a dynamic
economy and that the rights and freedoms guaranteed under ‘One Country, Two Systems’
are protected. The Government’s most recent assessment of the political and human
rights situation in Hong Kong is set out in the Foreign Secretary’s Six-Monthly Report
on Hong Kong to the House of 12 October (<a href="https://www.gov.uk/government/world-location-news/six-monthly-report-to-parliament-on-hong-kong-january-june-2016"
