District Council (First)
View on Wikipediafrom Wikipedia
The District Council (First) functional constituency (Chinese: 區議會（第一）功能界別), formerly called District Council until 2012, was a functional constituency in the elections for the Legislative Council of Hong Kong. Its electorate consists of all 431 directly elected members (excluding the 27 ex officio seats held by chairpersons of rural committees) of the 18 District Councils of Hong Kong. Along with Catering, it was created in 2000 to replace the Urban Council and Regional Council constituencies after the councils were abolished. This constituency was abolished in 2021.
