Hong Kong’s top court on Tuesday upheld three earlier rulings that favoured granting public housing and inheritance rights to married same-sex couples, citing equality provisions in the city’s mini-constitution. The unanimous ruling by Hong Kong’s Court of Final Appeal is the latest legal victory for the city’s LGBTQ+ community since 2023. Judges Andrew Cheung, Robert Ribeiro, Joseph Fok, Johnson Lam and Frank Stock said in a written ruling they rejected the government’s arguments that same-sex and opposite sex couples were not comparable in terms of their rights to public housing.
