The Internal and Judicial Affairs Committee of the 10th National People's congress (NPC) has proposed legislation regarding governing offenses against public order, said its chairman in Beijing Tuesday.

In line with the practice of Criminal Law,Law on Administrative Punishment, Law on Administrative Reconsideration and Administrative Procedure Law, it is necessary to make the new law based on the current regulation governing offenses against public order, said He Chunlin, who elaborated on the proposed legislation to top legislators at the fifth session of the 10th NPC Standing Committee.

He said the Ministry of Public Security has submitted the draft law to the State Council for deliberation and is working on the revision of the draft and his Committee is conducting a relevant investigation on it.

In the first session of the 10th NPC this March, 98 representatives raised four proposals calling for such legislation.

The regulations governing offenses against public order by the State Council took effect in 1957 and have experienced several revisions. It is the main reference for the Chinese public security authority to deal with ordinary public order cases.

China's first law on civil servants to debut

The Internal and Judicial Affairs Committee of the 10th National People's Congress (NPC) has proposed legislation regarding civil servants, said its chairman in Beijing Tuesday.

After a 10-year trial of the regulation on civil servants, it is time to draft China's first law on civil servants, said He Chunlin, who was at the fifth meeting of the 10th NPC Standing Committee to elaborate on the proposal to top legislators.

In the first session of the 10th NPC this March, nearly 200 representatives raised six proposals calling for such legislation.

He said his committee made the proposal after seriously deliberating the bills and conducting relevant investigations. His committee also received the written proposal from related governmental departments.

In January of 2001, China's Ministry of Personnel established a special working group responsible for drafting the law on civil servants jointly with other related departments. The almost completed draft law is now under revision by the related governmental departments.
