The Equal Opportunities Commission (EOC) notes that the Sexualities Research Programme at The Chinese University of Hong Kong has released the findings of a telephone survey titled “Public Attitudes towards LGBT+ Legal Rights in Hong Kong 2019/20” today (7 January 2020).

“The EOC commends the professional effort put up by the Sexualities Research Programme at The Chinese University of Hong Kong in conducting the study and producing the report,” said Mr Ricky CHU Man-kin, Chairperson of the EOC. “The report is informative and sheds new insights into the public attitudes towards legal rights and protection of LGBTI individuals in Hong Kong. It will certainly provide valuable reference for the EOC. We would study the issues raised in the report in our assessment of discrimination issues in the relevant areas in future.”
