2023-06-26
The third meeting of the Standing Committee of the 14th National People's Congress will be held in Beijing from June 26th to 28th. Why should we formulate a patriotic education law, and how can the draft law on Accessibility construction further provide living convenience for the elderly and the disabled? On the 25th, Zang Tiewei, spokesman of the Legislative Affairs Committee of the Standing Committee of the National People's Congress, introduced some draft laws to be submitted to this Standing Committee meeting for deliberation. Formulating the Patriotic Education Law: Promoting and Ensuring Patriotic Education in the New Era through the Rule of Law. At this Standing Committee meeting, the draft of the Patriotic Education Law will be submitted for initial review. The formulation of the Patriotic Education Law, the implementation of constitutional provisions, and the promotion and protection of patriotic education in the new era through the rule of law are of great and far-reaching significance for inspiring national spirit, rallying people's strength, promoting the construction of a strong country, and promoting national rejuvenation. He introduced that the draft of the Patriotic Education Law deeply summarizes the practical experience of patriotic education in the new era, focuses on maintaining national unity and national unity, and regards the realization of the Chinese Dream of the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation as a distinct theme. The legislation on patriotic education will stipulate the connotation, goals, guiding ideology, and overall requirements of patriotic education, the leadership system, working principles, and educational content of patriotic education, as well as the support and guarantee measures for patriotic education. Draft law on Accessibility construction: the draft law on Accessibility construction will be submitted to the Standing Committee for three times for consideration, focusing on responding to and solving the outstanding problems reflected by the elderly, the disabled and other groups. "The legislation on the construction of Accessibility has a direct bearing on the rights and interests of the disabled and the elderly, and social attention is high." Zang Tiewei said that the Standing Committee of the National People's Congress not only focuses on improving the relevant systems and mechanisms from the top-level design, but also pays special attention to responding to and solving the outstanding problems reflected by the elderly, the disabled and other groups. For example, in response to social concerns about the font size of product manuals and the lack of Braille versions, the third draft has been further revised to improve the provision of accessible format labels and manuals for product manufacturers and operators, and to clarify the need to facilitate identification and use by people with disabilities and the elderly. According to various opinions, the third review of the draft also includes provisions on encouraging the writing and publication of braille and low vision versions of teaching materials; Expand the scope of venues providing accessible facilities, equipment, and services to museums, cultural centers, science and technology centers, and other venues. Revision of the Administrative Reconsideration Law: The revised draft of the Administrative Reconsideration Law will be submitted to the Standing Committee for second deliberation, allowing the people to "find the right person" as soon as possible. According to Zang Tiewei, in 2020, China carried out administrative reconsideration system reform. In accordance with the reform requirements, the revised draft adjusted the jurisdiction of administrative reconsideration, organically integrating the dispersed administrative reconsideration responsibilities in various departments, allowing the people to "find the right door" in the first time, and facilitating citizens, legal persons, and other organizations to apply for administrative reconsideration; The unified exercise of administrative review responsibilities by local people's governments at all levels facilitates the optimization of administrative review resource allocation, the organic integration of dispersed responsibilities, and the shift of focus, and the resolution of conflicts at the grassroots and embryonic levels. The second review of the draft includes the addition of "promoting the construction of a rule of law government" in the legislative purpose and the principle of fulfilling the duties of administrative review organs
