Section 16 of the British Nationality Act 1981 provides that a person born outside the British overseas territories after commencement of that Act will be a British overseas territories citizen in certain circumstances, including where at the time of birth his father or mother is a British overseas territories citizen and is serving outside the British overseas territories in service designated by the Secretary of State, recruitment for that service having taken place in a British overseas territory. Various types of service are designated for the purposes of this provision by the British Dependent Territories Citizenship (Designated Service) Order 1982.
This Order amends that Order so as to remove from the types of service so designated, service for the Hong Kong Tourist Association and the Hong Kong Trade Development Council.
