The Hong Kong Broadcasting Authority (Chinese: 廣播事務管理局 or 廣管局) was an organisation responsible for licensing and regulating the broadcasting industry in Hong Kong. It was formed in 1987. The organisation is authorised to investigate complaints made regarding programmes, issue warnings and fines, or even suspend the license of the radio or television station.
Since April 2012, Hong Kong Broadcasting Authority, along with Television and Entertainment Licensing Authority and Office of the Telecommunications Authority was merged to form the Communications Authority.
