  • The Fifth Legislative Council of Hong Kong was the fifth meeting of the legislative branch of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region Government. The membership of the LegCo is based on the 2012 election. The term of the session is from 1 October 2012 to 30 September 2016, during the term in office of the Chief Executive Leung Chun-ying. Due to the new arrangements agreed in a contentious LegCo vote in 2010, the session consists of the new total of 70 seats in LegCo, ten more than previously, with 35 members elected in geographical constituencies through direct elections, and 35 members in functional constituencies, in which five District Council (Second) functional constituency seats each represent all 18 District councils of Hong Kong voted for by all resident voters in Hong Kong (who did not have a vote in any other functional constituency). The Democratic Alliance for the Betterment and Progress of Hong Kong remained the largest party while the pan-democrats secured the one-third crucial minority. Notable new members of the LegCo members include Gary Fan from the new established party Neo Democrats and first openly gay councillor, People Power's Ray Chan Chi-chuen. (en)
  • 立法會是香港的立法機構，亦是香港的一院制議會。第五屆立法會共有70個議席，經2012年9月9日的選舉產生。當中，地區直選和功能界別分別選舉35位議員。70名議員的任期為四年，由2012年10月1日至2016年9月30日。本屆立法會是自回歸後第二屆立法會以來首次沒有香港島補選的一屆，但新界東地區直選議員湯家驊於2015年10月1日辭職，新界東補選於2016年2月28日舉行，維持第二屆立法會以來每屆立法會皆須進行地區直選補選。 (zh)
