該罪行本可是有組織罪行)被定罪的人，是否曾經從有組織罪行中獲利，及(如該人曾如此獲利)為評計該人從有組織罪行的得益，可作出以下的假設，但如被告人(或在被告人已死的情況下，作為其代表的遺產代理人)能表明以他的情況來說任何該等假設屬不準確，則該等假設不能成立。 (由1995年第90號第7條代替)

(7) 在第8(1)(a)(ii)或(7A)條適用的情況下，在關於申請發出沒收令的任何法律程序中─

(a) 如被告人已死，則第(1B)款具有效力，猶如該款規定將根據第(1)款呈交的陳述書的副本送達被告人的遺產代理人一樣；

(b) 如被告人已潛逃，而且第8(3)(c)(i)(B)(I)或(7C)(b)(i)條對其並不適用，則本條具有效力，

(5) 保安局局長可藉憲報公告，修訂─

(a) 第(1)款指明的款額；
(b) 附表6。 (第IVA部由2000年第8號第2條增補)

(1) 如任何匯款代理人所僱用的人作出的某項作為，假若是由匯款代理人作出的，即屬第24C(4)條所訂罪行，則以下每人均屬犯該罪行，猶如他是匯款代理人而犯該罪行一樣，而每人均可處以就該罪行而訂明的刑罰─

(a)作出該項作為的人，但如他證明他已作出合理的努力避免該罪行發生，則不屬犯該罪行；
(b) 該名匯款代理人，除非他已採取合理步驟防止該罪行發生；及
(c)如作出該項作為的人的僱主是一個法團，則為該法團的每名董事、經理、秘書及其他相類的人員，以及本意是以任何該等身分行事的任何人，除非他已採取合理步驟防止該罪行發生。

除第(3)款另有規定外，就本條而言，如某人擔任董事職位(不論他的稱銜為何)，或如法團的董事是按照某人的指示或指令而行事的，則須將該人當作為有關法團的董事。
不得只因法團的董事按某人以專業身分給予的意見行事，而視該等董事是按照該人的指示或指令行事的。
(4) 如匯款代理人合夥的任何合夥人犯第24C(4)條所訂罪行，且證明該罪行是在該合夥的任何其他合夥人的同意或縱容下而犯的，或是可歸因於該名其他合夥人的疏忽的，則該名其他合夥人即屬犯同一罪行。

(5)本條適用於貨幣兌換商並就貨幣兌換商而適用，一如其適用於匯款代理人並就匯款代理人

而適用，猶如第(1)至(4)款中凡提述匯款代理人之處，均為對貨幣兌換商的提述一樣。 (第IVA部由2000年第8號第2條增補)

在符合第(6)款的規定下，凡獲授權人合理地懷疑某匯款代理人已犯本部所訂罪行(在本條中稱為“嫌疑罪行”(suspected offence))，他可連同所需的協助人員，進入內有該代理人的活動正在進行的任何處所，並可要求出示以及查閱該代理人的關於其進行的任何匯款交易的紀錄，或關於其作為匯款代理人的活動的紀錄，並且可就上述紀錄錄取筆記、複製副本或作出摘錄。
凡任何獲授權人已依據第(1)款進入內有某匯款代理人的活動正在進行的任何處所，如他合理地相信該代理人進行的任何匯款交易的紀錄或其作為匯款代理人的活動的紀錄，與嫌疑罪行有關，他可檢取該等紀錄。
根據第(2)款檢取的任何紀錄，須於檢取後在切實可行範圍內，盡快由檢取該等紀錄的獲授權人交付警務處處長或海關關長，或警務處處長或海關關長為此目的而指定的人。
凡自某匯款代理人處檢取的紀錄按照第(3)款交付警務處處長或海關關長，或警務處處長或海關關長為此目的而指定的人，而在交付後的6個月內沒有就與該等紀錄有關的嫌疑罪行提出檢控，則警務處處長、海關關長或該指定的人(視屬何情況而定)須自行或安排將該等紀錄歸還該代理人。

本條適用於貨幣兌換商並就貨幣兌換商而適用，一如其適用於匯款代理人並就匯款代理人而適用，猶如第(1)至(4)款中—

(a) 凡提述匯款代理人之處，均為對貨幣兌換商的提述一樣；
(b) 凡提述匯款交易之處，均為對兌換交易的提述一樣。

除非獲授權人依據根據第(7)款發出的手令行事，否則他不得就住宅處所行使他在第(1)款下的權力。
如裁判官根據經宣誓後所作的告發，信納有合理依據懷疑有關罪行已發生，他可發出手令授權獲授權人連同所需的協助人員，就有關的匯款代理人的活動正在進行的任何住宅處所，行使他在第(1)款下的權力。

(8)在本條中，“住宅處所”(domestic premises)指任何純粹作居住之用並構成獨立住戶單位的

處所或地方。 (第IVA部由2000年第8號第2條增補)

第Ⅴ部

雜項

(1) 除第25A條另有規定外，如有人知道或有合理理由相信任何財產全部或部分、直接或間接代表任何人從可公訴罪行的得益而仍處理該財產，即屬犯罪。

(2) 在檢控任何人犯第(1)款所訂的罪行的法律程序中，被告人可證明以下事情作為免責辯護─

(a) 他曾意圖就違反第(1)款的有關作為而向獲授權人披露第25A(1)條所述的知悉、懷疑或事宜；及
(b) 他未能按照第25A(2)條作出披露是有合理辯解的。

(3) 任何人犯第(1)款所訂的罪行─

為。 (1994年制定。由1995年第90號第22條代替)

(1) 凡任何人知道或懷疑任何財產是─

(a) 全部或部分、直接或間接代表任何人從可公訴罪行的得益；

(b) 曾在與可公訴罪行有關的情況下使用；或

(c) 擬在與可公訴罪行有關的情況下使用，該人須在合理範圍內盡快將該知悉或懷疑，連同上述知悉或懷疑所根據的任何事宜，向獲授權人披露。
(4): 如任何人在有關時間是受僱的，則凡該人是按其僱主所定下的程序向適當的人作出披露的，本條就該項披露具有效力的情況，一如就向獲授權人作出披露具有效力一般。

在，則該權利並不因第(9)款而受到影響。 (由2004年第21號第24條增補) (1994年制定。由1995年第90號第22條增補)

(1) 除第(2)款另有規定外，在任何民事或刑事法律程序中，不得迫使任何證人─

(a) 所檢控的是第25或25A條或本條所訂的罪行；或 (由1995年第90號第23條修訂)
(b) 法庭認為必須公開該項披露或某人為披露人，方能在各當事人之間秉行公正。

(3) 除第(4)、(5)及(6)款另有規定外，無論何人，均不得出版或廣播任何引致以下後果的資料─

(a) 公開或暗示有人曾經根據第25A(1)或(4)條作出披露；或 (由1995年第90號第23條修訂)

(b) 不包括為統計目的由政府出版或經政府批准而出版的資料。

(5) 第(3)款不適用於─

(a) 檢控披露人犯第25或25A條所訂的罪行的法律程序；或 (由1995年第90號第23條修訂)
(b) 審訊本條所訂的罪行的法律程序。

法庭或裁判官如信納如此做法有利於司法公正，可藉命令將第(3)款的規限免除至命令內指明的限度。

如有資料在違反第(3)款的情況下出版或廣播，以下各人都屬犯罪，經定罪後，可處第5級罰款及監禁6個月─

(a) (如果出版的資料是報章或期刊的一部分)報章或期刊的東主、編輯、出版人及發行人；

(9) 在本條中─ “出版”(publish) 指以文字出版； “廣播”(broadcast) 包括以無線電訊、電影、錄像帶或電視廣播。

(1994年制定。由1995年第90號第23條修訂) 附註：

具追溯力的修訂─見1998年第25號第2條

凡在區域法院或原訟法庭的法律程序中，有人就指明的罪行被定罪，本條即予適用。 (由1998年第25號第2條修訂)

(2) 控方可向法庭提供關於下述全部或任何事項的資料─ (由1995年第90號第24條修訂)

(a) 該人被如此定罪所據的作為直接或間接導致他人受損害的性質及程度；
(b)因該作為而對該人或任何其他人直接或間接帶來的利益或希望藉此帶來的利益(不論是否財務上的利益)的性質及程度；
(c) 該指明的罪行的普遍程度；
(d) 因最近發生的該指明的罪行而直接或間接導致社區受損害的性質及程度；
(e)因最近發生的該指明的罪行而對任何人直接或間接帶來的總利益(不論是否財務上的利益)的性質及程度。

(3) 只有可在刑事法律程序(包括就判刑而進行的法律程序)中接受納為證據的資料，才可根據第

款向法庭提供。
(4) 如控方提出請求，法庭須對在審訊時提出的證據或(如定罪是在承認控罪後作出的情況下)法庭在定罪前所所接受的事項，是否顯示該指明的罪行為有組織罪行，作出裁定。
控方不得根據第(4)款請求法庭作出裁定，除非控方已向有關的人發出通知，謂控方擬尋求獲得此裁定，及除非此通知是在該人上次就控罪作出回答之前或在法庭根據第(6)款所容許的較長時限之內發出的。
如某人已就某項指明的罪行認罪，而法庭在顧及控方獲通知謂被告人擬承認控罪的時間後，覺得容許控方有較長的時限以發出第(5)款規定的通知是有利於司法公正的，法庭可據此發出命令，並可為該目的而指明其認為在有關情況下屬合理的期間，而如有通知依據法庭根據本款所發命令而發出，法庭可容許被告人撤回承認控罪。
除非在法庭接獲根據第(5)款所須發出的通知後，被定罪的人已獲給予機會就有關事項陳詞，否則法庭不得根據第(4)款裁定其所犯的指明的罪行屬有組織罪行。

在根據第(4)款作出裁定時，如法庭裁定有關的指明的罪行因為與某三合會的活動有關連而屬有組織罪行，控方可就該等活動的性質及程度，以及該罪行如何與該等活動有關連，向法庭提供資料。
(9) 法庭可就第(8)款所提述的事項而收取及考慮其認為在有關的情況下是可靠的資料。

凡控方尋求根據本條就第(2)或(8)款所提述的任何事項向法庭提供資料，法庭須讓被定罪的人有機會就該資料的收取提出反對；如該等資料被法庭收取，法庭須讓該人有機會就同一事項提供資料。
(11) 除第(12)及(13)款另有規定外，凡法庭─
(a) 在無合理疑點的情況下信納該指明的罪行屬有組織罪行；或

(b) 在無合理疑點的情況下信納根據第(2)或(8)款提供的資料，或凡該等事項為被定罪的人所同意，則法庭就有關的指明的罪行對該人宣判刑罰時，須顧及該等事項，並可在其認為適合的情況下，就該罪行對該人宣判較會在沒有該事項時所宣判的為重的刑罰。

如有人根據第8條提出沒收令的申請，就第(11)款而言，法庭不得顧及該沒收令的申請所涉及的指明的罪行或有組織罪行的任何得益。

依據第(11)款所判處的刑罰不得超逾法律所容許的對該罪行的最高罰則。
本條的實施並不影響在任何人被判刑前，可向法庭提供的任何其他資料，或法庭在對任何

人的罪行判刑時，法庭須顧及或可顧及的任何其他資料。

(15) 對任何就本條生效日期前所犯的指明的罪行被定罪的人，本條並不適用。 (1994年制定)

(1)除第(4)款另有規定外，原訟法庭可應檢控官的申請，命令將公共機構所管有而又屬於第(3)款所述的任何物料，在原訟法庭指明的限期內，提交原訟法庭。

(2) 根據第(1)款發出命令的權力，可在以下情況下行使─

(b)可憑藉第14(2)條行使該等權力，及原訟法庭已經發出限制令或押記令，而該等命令未

曾撤銷，但如根據第(1)款發出命令的權力是單獨憑藉(b)段而可行使，則第14(3)條可為施行本條而予以引用，一如它可為施行第15及16條而予以引用。

(3) 第(1)款所指的物料，是─

(4): 除非原訟法庭覺得有關物料相當可能包含某些資料，而這些資料有助於原訟法庭行使第15至17條所賦予的權力，或有助於根據第15或17條或押記令而委任的接管人行使所獲賦予的權力，否則不得藉根據第(1)款發出的命令飭令提交任何物料。
(5): 原訟法庭可藉命令批准向該接管人披露根據第(1)款提交的任何物料，或物料的任何部分；但原訟法庭必須先給予該公共機構的人員合理機會向原訟法庭申述意見，方可根據本款發出命令。
(6): 依據第(5)款發出的命令而披露的物料，除命令內另有條件規限外，為接管人或原訟法庭履行本條例賦予的職能，可進一步披露。; (b) 原訟法庭覺得該物料相當可能與行使關於偵查指明的罪行的職能有關的，否則原訟法庭不得根據本款發出命令。
(8): 依據第(7)款發出的命令而披露的物料，除命令內另有條件規限外，為了與偵查指明的罪行有關的職能，可進一步披露。
(9): 縱使法規或其他方面規定有保密責任或對資料的披露有其他限制，仍可依據本條提交或披露物料。
(12): 行政長官可藉憲報公告，指明任何機構為本條所指的公共機構。 (由1999年第13號第3條修訂)

(1994年制定。由1998年第25號第2條修訂) [比照 1986 c. 32 s. 30 U.K.]

(3): 除第(3A)款另有規定外，在參與調查或檢控該罪行的任何人曾犯嚴重錯失的情況下，即使原訟法庭覺得假若該嚴重錯失沒有發生，偵查便會繼續，或法律程序便會提起或繼續，亦不得根據第(1)款命令作出賠償。

(3A) 在第(2)(a)及(3)款均不適用於第(1)(ba)款適用的任何情況。 (由1995年第90號第25條增補)

(4) 在不影響第(1)款的施行的情況下，凡─

(a) 任何人按照第25A(2)條就任何財產作出披露；

(b)由於該項披露，及為了對指明的罪行作出偵查或提起檢控，就該財產作出任何作為或不作為；及
