HONG KONG: Hong Kong schools should not provide reading material that violates a new national security law unless they use it to"positively teach" students about the issue, the city's Education Bureau said on Monday .
The Education Bureau, in a statement sent to Reuters, said schools were the gatekeepers for their teaching resources and school management and teachers should review"all teaching materials, including books". A Reuters visit to one public library showed books discussing Hong Kong independence, which is anathema to Beijing, were still available.
