Question: During the Hong Kong local elections, the Chief Executive may appoint up to how many members to each council?

<P0-S0> The Fifth Legislative Council of Hong Kong is the former meeting of the legislative branch of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region Government. <P0-S1>  The membership of the LegCo is based on the 2012 election. <P0-S2>  The term of the session is from 1 October 2012 to 30 September 2016, during the term in office of the Chief Executive Leung Chun-ying. <P0-S3>  Due to the new arrangements agreed in a contentious LegCo vote in 2010, the session consists of the new total of 70 seats in LegCo, ten more than previously, with 35 members elected in geographical constituencies through direct elections, and 35 members in functional constituencies, in which five District Council (Second) functional constituency seats each represent all 18 District Councils of Hong Kong voted for by all resident voters in Hong Kong (who did not have a vote in any other functional constituency). <P0-S4>  The Democratic Alliance for the Betterment and Progress of Hong Kong remained the largest party while the pan-democrats secured the one-third crucial minority. <P0-S5>  Notable new members of the LegCo members include Gary Fan from the new established party Neo Democrats and first openly gay councillor, People Power's Ray Chan Chi-chuen. <SEP> <P1-S0> The 2012 Hong Kong Chief Executive election was held on 25 March 2012 to select the Chief Executive of Hong Kong (CE), the highest office in the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region (HKSAR), by a 1,193-member Election Committee (EC) to replace the incumbent Chief Executive. <P1-S1>  Won by the former non-official convenor of the Executive Council of Hong Kong Leung Chun-ying, the election was the most competitive as it was the first election with more than one pro-Beijing candidate since the 1996 election. <SEP> <P2-S0> The Chief Executive of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region is the head and representative of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region and head of the Government of Hong Kong. <P2-S1>  The position was created to replace the Governor of Hong Kong, the representative of the Monarch of the United Kingdom during British rule. <P2-S2>  The office, stipulated by the Hong Kong Basic Law, formally came into being on 1 July 1997 when the sovereignty of Hong Kong was transferred from the United Kingdom to the People's Republic of China. <SEP> <P3-S0> The Hong Kong local elections () are elections in Hong Kong for the members of District Councils (District Boards before 1997). <P3-S1>  First held in 1982, the elections are held at 4-year intervals when the 18 district councils, totalling 412 elected members (as at 2011, up from 405 elected members in 2007) require renewal. <P3-S2>  The last election was on 22 November 2015. <P3-S3>  The elections are conducted by simple plurality, with an average constituency having a population of around 17,000 people. <P3-S4>  The Chief Executive may appoint up to a prescribed number of members to each council, totalling 102. <P3-S5>  The councils range from 11 to 37 elected members, depending on that district's population. <P3-S6>  The councils in the New Territories also have 27 "ex officio" members who are chairpersons of rural committees.
