Rule of Law Crucial to Sustainable Development
The management of State affairs in accordance with the law is crucial to social development and implementing the sustainable development strategy in China, China's top legislator Li Peng said in Beijing yesterday.

Li, member of the Standing Committee of the Political Bureau of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China and Chairman of the Standing Committee of the National People's Congress, was speaking at a meeting in commemoration of the 30th anniversary of the United Nations Human Environment Conference and the 10th anniversary of the United Nations Environment and Development Conference.

Li said that a legal system on sustainable development had basically taken shape in China. By the end of 2001, China had a law on population and family planning, six laws on environmental protection, 13 laws on the administration of natural resources, 30 laws on disaster prevention and relief, as well as more than 100 administrative regulations in these fields.

He called on the people to monitor the implementation of these laws to achieve sustainable development in China.
