Government doctors' pay claim

In 2002, Leung was named first plaintiff in a suit brought by 165 public hospital doctors against the Hospital Authority for remuneration for working on rest days and public holidays and for overtime work. The Court of First Instance ruled they be compensated for loss of rest days and public holidays but dismissed their overtime claim. The Hospital Authority then offered compensation of HK$600 million to the 4,000 doctors affected.[3][4]
