2022 Hong Kong Election Committee (constituency) by-election

A by-election was held for the Election Committee constituency in the Legislative Council of Hong Kong on 18 December 2022 after resignation of four Legislative Councillors appointed to the new government led by Chief Executive John Lee Ka-chiu.

The four incumbents, Alice Mak,[1] Horace Cheung,[2] Nelson Lam,[3] and Dong Sun[4] resigned on 19 June 2022 after they were appointed as principal officials of the new government led by John Lee.

[19] Shang admitted the late submission, while Wong repeatedly denied to comment on the possible penalties.

Chan Wing-kwong received the most votes,[7] succeeding party colleague Horace Cheung.

Media reported the Chinese Government did not "bless" (or support in secret) any candidates in this election, and the defeat was the show of dismay by the business groups over FTU's staunch pro-labour stance.
