香港特区的“免费电视牌照争议”以特区政府一审败诉暂告一段落。香港高等法院基于“合法预期原则”而行使司法复核权,将这一源自英国行政法的法律原则在香港落实和巩固,打开了将行政裁量权置于更严格司法审查之下的通道。合法预期原则——尤其是实体性合法预期——仍在持续发展演化中,在相对人合法预期的认定、行政机关背离预期之自由度的司法权衡,以及基于个案正义的司法救济手段等方面仍未最终定形。因此,“免费电视牌照争议”结束之后,香港行政法的判例法发展仍值得密切关注。从趋势来看,香港司法机关应当也将会基于本地独特的分权体制与管治现状,采行一种审慎的司法审查模式来处理有关合法预期的案件。
Hong Kong SAR’s “Free TV License Controversy” Appears in the First Instance of SARS. The High Court of Hong Kong exercised the power of judicial review based on the principle of “lawful expectations” and implemented and consolidated this legal principle derived from the British administrative law in Hong Kong, opening the channel for placing administrative discretion under more stringent judicial review . The principle of lawful expectation - especially the substantive lawful expectation - is still evolving. In the face of the lawful expectation of the counterparty, the judiciary trade-off of the executive body’s deviation from the expected degree of freedom and the judicial remedy based on case justice Not final shape. Therefore, the development of case law in Hong Kong administrative law still deserves close attention after the “controversy over free television licenses” is over. From a trend perspective, the judiciary in Hong Kong should, based on the unique situation of decentralization and governance in Hong Kong, adopt a cautious mode of judicial review to handle cases of lawful expectations.
