摘要
"菲佣居港权"终审判决外来家庭雇工无法依据《基本法》第24条第2款第四项申请永久居民身份。由于外来家庭雇工居住条件的高度受限制性,这类雇工被排除于《基本法》第24条第2款第四项的"通常居住",而法院认为对"通常居住"通过普通法方法即可得出结论,无需参考其他外部资料,不必提请人大常委会解释。这份判决着重使用了语境解释方法,权利导向的解释立场被削弱。该判决顺应香港"民意",却是对外来家庭雇工的"合法"歧视。
The final adjudication of 'Philippine Servants' Hong Kong Residency Right' rules that the Art.24 Section 2 Chapter 4 of Basic Lawis not available for the family employees from foreign countries and they shall not apply for permanent residency in Hong Kong. They are excluded from the 'permanent residency' by the article above because of the extreme restriction of their living condition. The Court thinks the 'permanent residency'can be concluded from the theory of Basic Lawand it is unnecessary to refer to other documents and resort to the interpretation by the Standing Committee. This adjudication mainly applied contextual interpretation which debilitates the interpretation position directed by right. It satisfied the 'will of Hong Kong civil people' but made 'legal' prejudice at the family employees from foreign countries.
