Previous reports had put the number at 25.

Mr Tung said 15 would disappear in their entirety and 11 in part. Following the sub-group's meeting on Friday, member Tam Yiu-chung said 16 would be fully repealed and nine partially.

The Preparatory Committee Secretariat has not published an official list.

Mr Tung's spokesman insisted the number obtained by Mr Tung was correct.
