Tanya Chan

On 9 April 2019, at West Kowloon Court, she and 8 other were found guilty (public nuisance, inciting) over their role in the 2014 Hong Kong protests.

On 10 June 2019, Chan was handed a sentence of eight months suspended for two years after the court was told that she would require radiotherapy treatment and will experience double vision for six months. Her brain tumour was found benign, but had not been completely removed, and needed further therapy. The court also considered her record of public service.

In the 2012 legislative election, she stood as the second candidate in Kenneth Chan's list in Hong Kong Island, in an attempt to boost Civic Party's votes and seats. Although Kenneth Chan was elected, she lost re-election under the party-list proportional representation system. In the 2016 legislative election, she was returned to the Legislative Council, succeeding outgoing Kenneth Chan's seat.

Until 2011, she was a member of Central and Western District Council.

In January 2010, Chan and other four lawmakers, Albert Chan, Alan Leong, Leung Kwok-hung and Wong Yuk-man resigned from LegCo, forcing a by-election, which they would treat as a "de facto referendum" to press the Chinese Government into allowing universal suffrage in Hong Kong. On 16 May 2010, she was re-elected as a lawmaker in the by-election.

In the 2008 LegCo elections, Chan was elected into, and became a member of, the Hong Kong Legislative Council to represent Hong Kong Island, along with Civic Party leader Audrey Eu.

Tanya Chan (Chinese: 陳淑莊 ; born 14 September 1971 in Hong Kong) is a Legislative Councillor representing Hong Kong Island. She is a founding member of the Civic Party.
