HKU SPACE's Advanced Diploma for Legal Executives (Graduate Level) direct pathway to the PCLL for students who start their law studies on HKU SPACE's  Certificate in Legal Studies has been officially approved by the Standing Committee on Legal Education and Training for direct entry to the PCLL .

This PCLL pathway for students who start their law studies on HKU SPACE's Certificate in Legal Studies was reported to the Legislative Council's panel on Administration of Justice and Legal Services by Hong Kong Government Deputy Solicitor General Jenny Fung at a meeting on 31 August 2021 (see 8:53-10:30 on video above).

The Legco panel meeting was attended by senior representatives from all three PCLL providers, The University of Hong Kong, The Chinese University of Hong Kong and City University of Hong Kong, who have all approved the Advanced Diploma for Legal Executives (Graduate Level) for direct entry to their PCLL programmes without any need to sit any of the extra PCLL Conversion Exams required of graduates of most other part-time law courses.

The meeting was addressed by HKU SPACE Associate Head of the College of Humanities and Law Danny Gittings who thanked Legco members for their support for the Advanced Diploma for Legal Executives (Graduate Level) and promised HKU SPACE would continue to work to increase opportunities for legal executives (at 20:49-22:40 on video below).
