SHENZHEN BAY PORT HONG KONG PORT AREA ORDINANCE - SECT 12

References to Hong Kong in future documents

(1) If a future document contains a reference to Hong Kong to describe the
territorial limit of a right or obligation (other than a pre-existing right or
obligation), then, unless the contrary intention appears, the territorial
limit of the right or obligation is to be construed as including the Hong Kong
Port Area.

(2) It is declared that the definition assigned by section 3 of the
Interpretation and General Clauses Ordinance ( Cap 1) to the expression
“document” does not include, for the purposes of this section, any
enactment, and for the avoidance of doubt, it is declared that any enactment
must be construed in accordance with section 5.

(3) This section does not apply to a court order.
