The Hong Kong (Appeal to Privy Council) (Amendment) Order 1980
The Rules regulating appeals from Hong Kong to the Privy Council confer a right of appeal from any final judgment where the matter in dispute or claim amounts to $50,000 or upwards. This Order increases that amount to $200,000. It also increases the maximum security that may be required from an appellant for the due prosecution of an appeal and for any costs awarded against him, from $30,000 to $100,000.
