*******************************************************************
     ​The Secretary for Justice, Mr Paul Lam, SC, continued his visit to Beijing today (April 24), calling on the Supreme People's Procuratorate (SPP) and visiting the Asian Infrastructure Investment Bank (AIIB) to explore development opportunities for Hong Kong's legal services.
      
     In the morning, Mr Lam called on the SPP, where he met with the Prosecutor-General of the SPP, Mr Ying Yong. Mr Lam first expressed his gratitude to the SPP for supporting Hong Kong in hosting the 15th China-ASEAN Prosecutors-General Conference last year. Both sides also exchanged views on issues of mutual concern, including arranging training and exchanges on foreign-related legal issues and the common law system for Mainland prosecutors, as well as co-organising capacity-building programmes.
      
     Mr Lam and officials in his entourage then visited the AIIB and met with the President of the AIIB, Ms Zou Jiayi, to learn about the progress of the AIIB's office establishment in Hong Kong and to explore opportunities for exchanges and collaboration between the AIIB and Hong Kong's legal sector, and for further choosing Hong Kong's legal services.
      
     Accompanying Mr Lam on the visit were the Director of Public Prosecutions, Ms Maggie Yang, the Law Officer (International Law), Dr James Ding, and government counsel.
      
     Mr Lam concluded his visit to Beijing and returned to Hong Kong in the afternoon.
