Top Legislature Active in Law Enforcement Supervision

The Standing Committee of China's National People's Congress (NPC) is playing an active role in supervising the implementation of the nation's laws, an official with the NPC said in Beijing Tuesday.

Since 1992, supervision of law enforcement has become routine work for the NPC Standing Committee, China's top legislature. In the past five years, the Ninth NPC Standing Committee has examined the implementation of 22 laws, the official said.

The supervision concentrates on the laws of key interest to the central task of the state and Chinese Communist Party and the life of the people, as well as the issues the government is striving to deal with.

For example, the Standing Committee of the Eighth NPC supervised the implementation of Agricultural Law for four years in a row, the present Ninth NPC Standing Committee has made two more inspections on the execution of the same law.

Supervisors and inspectors normally work out reports which assess the implementation of relevant laws, analyze existing problems and reasons, and offer improving suggestion.

Officials from law-enforcement bodies are required to attend the Standing Committee's discussions about inspection reports and answer questions from legislators.
