The Minister for Asia and the Pacific raised this issue with Hong Kong Chief Secretary Matthew Cheung during his visit to Hong Kong on 11 November. He sought an explanation for the visa refusal, but did not receive one. In the absence of an explanation from the authorities we can only conclude that this move is politically motivated.

We remain very concerned by the Hong Kong authorities’ unprecedented rejection of a visa for senior British journalist Victor Mallet. In the absence of an explanation from the authorities we can only conclude that this move is politically motivated. We believe this undermines Hong Kong’s freedom of speech and freedom of the press, both guaranteed by the Joint Declaration, and the Basic Law, and increases the pressure on the ‘One Country, Two Systems’ framework.
