海問律師事務所欣然宣布，本所香港辦公室合伙人劉洋律師獲香港特別行政區政府律政司司長林定國資深大律師委任為仲裁法改革工作小組成員。
Haiwen & Partners is pleased to announce that Mr. Edward Liu, Partner in the firm’s Hong Kong office, has been appointed by Mr. Paul Lam SC, Secretary for Justice of the Hong Kong SAR Government, as a member of the Working Group on Arbitration Law Reform.
該工作小組由律政司設立，旨在檢討《仲裁條例》（第609章），并就相關立法改革提出建議，以進一步完善香港的仲裁法律框架。本次改革工作是香港政府推動香港鞏固其作為國際仲裁樞紐地位的重要舉措之一。
The Working Group, established by the Department of Justice, is tasked with reviewing the Arbitration Ordinance (Cap. 609) and recommending legislative reforms to enhance and modernise Hong Kong’s arbitration framework. This initiative forms part of the Government’s broader efforts to reinforce Hong Kong’s position as a premier international arbitration hub.
該工作小組由七位成員組成，均為法律界的杰出代表，包括律政司司長（擔任主席）、副司長（擔任副主席）、一位終審法院常任法官、兩位英國御用大律師、香港國際仲裁中心秘書長以及劉洋律師。該委任反映了律政司對劉律師在國際仲裁領域的深厚專業知識、思想領導力，以及他在香港及區域法律政策發展方面的重要貢獻的高度認可。
The Working Group comprises a select and distinguished group of seven members, including the Secretary for Justice as Chairperson, the Deputy Secretary for Justice as Vice-Chairperson, a Permanent Judge of the Court of Final Appeal, two King’s Counsel, the Secretary-General of the Hong Kong International Arbitration Centre, and Mr. Liu. Thus, such appointment reflects the Department’s recognition of Mr. Liu’s deep expertise in international arbitration, his reputation for thought leadership, and his significant contributions to legal and policy development in Hong Kong and the region.
劉洋律師的任期為兩年，由2025年10月30日起至2027年10月29日止。
Mr. Liu’s appointment is for a term of two years, from 30 October 2025 to 29 October 2027
“能夠獲委任為這一重要工作小組的成員，我深感榮幸。”劉律師表示，“我期待與各位資深專家共同努力，為香港仲裁制度的未來發展貢獻力量，特別是在當前跨境爭議解決日益倚重創新與國際接軌的時代背景下。”
“It is a great honour to be appointed to this important Working Group,” said Mr. Liu. “I look forward to contributing to the ongoing development of Hong Kong’s arbitration regime, particularly at a time when innovation and international alignment are becoming increasingly important in cross-border dispute resolution.”
此次任命，不僅彰顯了海問在法律專業與公共事務領域持續追求卓越的承諾，也進一步印證了劉洋律師作為亞洲仲裁律師之一的地位，深受客戶、業界及機構的廣泛信賴。
This appointment highlights Haiwen’s continued commitment to legal excellence and public engagement, and affirms Mr. Liu’s standing as one of Asia’s leading arbitration practitioners, trusted by clients, peers, and institutions alike.
