1. On 4 October 2004, some 48 hours before he was due to take his oath of office as a Legislative Councillor, the applicant came to this court seeking leave to apply for judicial review. He did so essentially to obtain a declaration that, in taking his oath, he would not be constrained by the form of words laid down in the Oaths and Declarations Ordinance, Cap.11, but would be entitled in law to swear an oath that made mention of certain political principles espoused by him.
