香港大學校務委員會早前否決法律學院前院長陳文敏出任港大副校長的任命，有聲稱是當晚會議、校委李國章發言時的錄音昨在電台曝光。錄音內容除指陳文敏沒有博士學位，又質疑有政黨熱心地支持陳文敏出任副校長，是想在港大安插「黨委書記」。錄音至少獲3名校委證實內容屬實，港大已就事件報警求助，警方將案件列求警協助案處理，由西區重案組跟進。至於李國章則指自己光明正大，鬼祟偷錄者人格有問題。
港大校委會在上月29日會議上，以8票贊成、12票反對，否決陳文敏任命，商業電台昨日播出3段錄音，聲稱是李國章當晚在會上的發言。首段錄音中，李國章指陳文敏當時擔任法律學院院長是由學院推選，也只因他是好人(nice guy)，又申報堂弟李國能有份推薦陳文敏，「堂弟也認為他是一個非常非常好的人」 (And my cousin has already said he's a very very nice guy)。之後一段錄音，李國章更指，陳文敏沒有博士、醫學博士或法學博士等較高等學歷，質疑若由陳文敏負責教授晉升的職責，能否有一個誠實獨立的客觀意見。
對陳文敏感到不安
在第三段錄音中，李國章又否認受到中聯辦或特首壓力(I'd like to say very categorically I have not been under any pressure)。他又提及有指「左報」如《文匯報》、《大公報》以百計的文章打擊作為候選人的陳文敏，但他「坦言」，自己及相信大部分香港人不會看這兩份報章。相反，他認為有政黨非常有組織及落力地推舉陳文敏，用恐嚇、用阻撓校委會、成立關注組、及用司法覆核等等手段，他反問這些政黨為何如此支持陳文敏，他們是否想如內地大學一樣，在港大有位「黨委書記」，「他們當陳文敏是黨委書記，想將他放在這裏做黨委書記？」(Do they want a 黨委書記at HKU? Is he a 黨委書記, is he put in here as a黨委書記?)，因此他對陳文敏這位候選人感到非常不舒服及不安(all these things made me feel very uncomfortable and very uneasy with this candidate)。
當晚會議後召開記者會並披露部分校委意見的校務委員、學生會會長馮敬恩表示，錄音與他當晚記錄的李國章發言內容吻合，另外兩名校委張祺忠及紀文鳳亦證實錄音為會議內容，其中張祺忠指「如果有校委抵唔住，要講出嚟都無計，無可厚非」，而校委廖長江則不能確定錄音是否屬實，但認為有關行為不道德及低俗。

卑鄙手段不會令他感尷尬
李國章回應時指自己未聽過錄音，未能評論內容是否真實，又批評錄音者曾經簽署保密協議也可以反口，質疑這些人的誠信及人格有問題。李國章表示自己光明正大，所說的均有道理及正確，即使有人鬼鬼祟祟偷錄，他都不介意，又指公開錄音是有人用卑鄙手段要令他尷尬，但他並無因此感到尷尬。至於，他早前批評披露會議內容的馮敬恩為「大話精」，但錄音內容與馮敬恩所說的吻合，李國章則指是針對馮敬恩違反保密協議，並非針對他引述的內容。

梁智鴻對事件感震驚
對於錄音曝光，港大校委會主席梁智鴻直言感到震驚，並予以強烈譴責。他稱，若證實有關錄音於會上偷錄，是絕對不可接受，因做法違反校委會保密制，亦侵犯校委的私隱，但他未有證實李國章有否質疑陳文敏是政黨安插的「黨委書記」。梁智鴻昨午再發聲明指，港大將盡全力調查事件，並就有關行為報警求助，目前正尋求法律意見，考慮其他可行的法律行動。教育局昨晚亦發聲明對事件予以強烈譴責。

陳文敏：無稽之談
涉事主角之一的陳文敏則指，李國章的批評是無稽之談，在任命一事上，他從未和任何政黨商討，又指對方說法毫無事實根據，亦反映說話者的無知，毫不尊重遴選委員會的嚴謹程序。港大校友關注組召集人葉建源指「黨委書記」的言論好荒謬、匪夷所思，又指副校長的任命是根據學術成就提名，但因校委會多番阻撓陳文敏的任命，校友才會有極大回響，而校友涉及不同階層的獨立人士，故根本不存在安插「黨委書記」的說法。

律師：保密協議不等於法律
對於校委會就錄音外洩一事報警求助，大律師陸偉雄指，校方將錄音外洩一事交由警方調查，便由警方深入調查有否刑事成分，若有便立案拉人。不過，陸偉雄提出，保密協議不等於法律，故違反協議不算犯法，而錄音、偷錄等本身亦不是犯法行為，惟交由警方處理。不過他理解校方報警是無可厚非，也算是一種姿態，以免日後有人變本加厲。

好人論：
//Mr. Chairman,
when I came on the scene, I thought this would be a very straightforward matter. The Vice-Chancellor makes a recommendation, and we rubber-stamp it, and that’s deemed a fact. However, I do have some worries that I feel I should articulate, the Dean, the Vice-Chancellor, in those days, were elected by the Faculty. So all you have to do is to be a nice guy to everyone, and I think Johannes Chan is a very nice guy. And at this point, I’d like to declare my interest; there was one of the referees which is my cousin. And my cousin has already said he’s a very very nice guy.
無博士學位論：
So from that point of view, I have no worry in that he is dean, my main worry on academic side was that he has no higher degree equal to a PhD or an MD or LLD, now you may say in law is not necessary. Well, if it is not necessary, why is such a degree there in the first place? And when you look at the other referee professors, they all got LLDs. Therefore, either he hasn’t tried or he is too busy or he doesn’t think it is important, but if that’s the case he will be devaluated maybe of the lecturers, professors who have got PhDs, who have gone through the rigours of academic pursuits. Now, can you, can someone be in charge of promotion of another person who actually has not gone through the same rigours as that other person and give an honest independent objective view? And I would put my question here is that, I do have my doubt about this.
「黨委書記」論：
The second thing I’d like to bring up is that, we’ve been said that we’ve been under a lot of pressure from the liaison office, from the Chief Executive, and I’d like to say very categorically I have not been under any pressure. It has been said that the left-wing press, 文匯報、大公報 have been running hundreds of articles against this candidate. And quite honestly, I don’t read 文匯報 or 大公報, and I think most people in Hong Kong do not read 文匯報 or 大公報. Relatively most people take a negative view, the more they say about something, the more we feel anti whatever they say.
However, on the other side, it’s that the political parties are very well organized, very well informed, very well…how would I say… very keen to push this candidate by, as Leonie said, by intimidation, by failing our council meeting, by having concern groups and all these threatening JRs and everything. But I just wonder why is these political parties so keen on this candidate, is it, you know, in the Mainland university, they have 黨委書記. Do they want a 黨委書記 at Hong Kong U? Is he a 黨委書記, is he put in here as a 黨委書記? So I don’t know, forgetting about the politics, all these things made me feel very uncomfortable and very uneasy with this candidate. Thank you.//
