湿地与人类生存发展息息相关，具有涵养水源、净化水质、维护生物多样性、蓄洪防旱、调节气候和储碳固碳等多种重要的生态功能，被誉为“地球之肾”和“物种基因库”。根据2023年度监督工作计划，全国人大常委会组织开展了湿地保护法执法检查。此次执法检查紧扣法律规定开展监督，认真检查法定职责的履行、法律责任的落实、法律执行质效等情况，推动The protection and restoration of wetlands should develop with high quality on the track of rule of law。
The report describes the results of the implementation of the Wetland Protection Law. All localities and departments conscientiously implement the Wetland Protection Law, accurately grasp the legislative purpose, practice the legislative principles of protection priority, strict management, systematic governance, scientific restoration, and rational utilization, strictly implement various legal systems, maintain the ecological functions and biodiversity of wetlands, effectively ensure ecological security, promote harmonious coexistence between man and nature, and continuously improve the awareness of wetland protection in the whole society. It is embodied in the following aspects:
Implement wetland protection responsibilities in accordance with law. All localities and departments attach great importance to actively implementing statutory duties, improve working mechanisms, strengthen assessment and evaluation, increase investment, and gradually improve supporting system standards.
Actively implement the legal system. Implement hierarchical management of wetlands, and initially establish a classification and management system for nationally important wetlands, provincial-level important wetlands and general wetlands according to ecological location, area, and importance of maintaining ecological functions and biodiversity. The relevant departments of the State Council have established a wetland resources investigation and evaluation system, basically figured out the quality, pattern, function and changes of wetland ecosystems nationwide, clarified the scope of full-caliber wetlands, carried out dynamic monitoring of the ecological status of internationally important wetlands every year and issued a white paper on the ecological status of wetlands of international importance in China, established a wetland field scientific observation and research station, real-time monitoring and information management platform, set up wetland bird diversity monitoring sample areas in 270 counties, and initially established a wetland investigation and monitoring system.
Strengthen the protection, restoration and rational use of wetlands. All localities and departments should strengthen the implementation of laws, properly handle the relationship between wetland protection and restoration and rational utilization, and explore mechanisms for realizing the value of wetland ecological products.
Strengthen law enforcement, supervision and judicial safeguards for wetland protection. Strengthen law enforcement and supervision, strengthen inspections and case handling, continue to carry out special actions, carry out investigation and rectification of illegal encroachment on national wetland parks and other nature reserves, and strictly crack down on illegal and illegal destruction of wetlands in accordance with law. Give full play to the function of judicial protection, courts and procuratorates across the country conscientiously perform their functions, strengthen the construction of judicial specialization and specialization in wetland protection, publish judicial policies and judicial interpretations, guiding cases and typical cases on wetland protection, and standardize judicial acts in wetland protection; set up environmental protection courts and procuratorial workstations in important wetlands, hire professionals to serve as jurors and enforcement supervisors, establish a "procurator + forest chief, river chief" mechanism, and strengthen the connection between execution and civil practice. Connect with the lawsuits, and increase the intensity of hearing environmental resources cases involving wetlands.
Increase the publicity and popularization of laws and the intensity of international cooperation and exchanges. All localities and departments make full use of "Environment Day", "National Ecological Day", "World Wetland Day", "International Day of Biological Diversity" and "Bird Love Week" to strengthen legal publicity and popularization, hold forums on the implementation of the Wetland Protection Law, compile legal interpretations, organize and carry out multi-level and multi-form legal popularization activities and policy interpretations, widely publicize and interpret the Wetland Protection Law, and promote the Wetland Protection Law to the people's side and hearts.
The report pointed out the main problems in the implementation of the Wetland Protection Law: the joint force of protecting wetlands according to law needs to be improved. The local coordination mechanism is not perfect, and the pattern of pluralistic co-governance has not really formed; supporting laws and regulations and standards need to be improved, some urgently needed supporting laws and regulations have not yet been promulgated, the revision of local wetland protection regulations is lagging behind, and departmental rules need to be improved; there are still gaps in the implementation of the legal system, and the inspection finds that the implementation of the wetland protection law and system needs to be improved, and the implementation of some systems needs to be strengthened; the funds and scientific and technological guarantees for wetland protection and restoration are insufficient; and the level of wetland protection and supervision capacity needs to be improved.
The report recommends that all localities and departments should deeply study and implement Xi Jinping Thought on Ecological Civilization and Xi Jinping Thought on Rule of Law, conscientiously implement the spirit of the National Conference on Ecological Environmental Protection, and comprehensively and effectively implement the Wetland Protection Law from the perspective of harmonious coexistence between man and nature. It is necessary to strengthen overall planning and coordination and strictly implement statutory duties; strictly enforce the law and administer justice to ensure the rigidity and authority of the law; strengthen support and guarantees, and comprehensively improve the level of wetland protection and restoration; improve supporting laws and regulations and weave a dense legal network for wetland protection; and carry out in-depth publicity and education to promote the formation of a good pattern of pluralism and co-governance.

A report on the people's courts' environmental resources adjudication work is submitted for deliberation
Deepen the reform of environmental resources adjudication systems and mechanisms
Wei Zhezhe, reporter of this newspaper
On October 21, at the sixth meeting of the Standing Committee of the 14th National People's Congress, Zhang Jun, president of the Supreme People's Court, made a report on the environmental resources trial work of the people's courts.
In the new era, the main contradiction in our society has been transformed into a contradiction between the people's growing need for a better life and unbalanced and inadequate development, and the people's need for a beautiful ecological environment has become an important aspect of this contradiction.
人民法院坚决贯彻落实党中央关于推进生态文明建设重大决策部署，积极回应人民群众新期待，Deepen the reform of environmental resources adjudication systems and mechanisms，大力加强专业审判队伍建设，依法公正高效审理各类环境资源案件，为推进美丽中国建设作出积极贡献。
From January 2018 to September 2023, people's courts at all levels concluded a total of 1.47 million first-instance cases of various types of environmental resources, including 186,000 criminal cases, 983,000 civil cases, 278,000 administrative cases, and 23,000 environmental public interest litigation cases brought by different entities. From 2018 to 2022, the number of first-instance environmental resources cases accepted increased by 76.7% compared with the previous five years.
Persist in serving the overall situation, and truly give play to the role of judicial protection of environmental resources. It concluded 42,000 first-instance cases involving environmental pollution, 1.16 million first-instance cases involving natural resources, 189,000 first-instance cases involving biological resources and ecosystems, and 511 first-instance cases involving carbon market transactions... Give full play to the role of judicial protection of environmental resources with strict and fair justice, serve to fight the battle against pollution, green and low-carbon transformation of development methods, continuously improve the stability of ecosystem diversity, and actively and steadily promote carbon peaking and carbon neutrality.
In June 2014, the Supreme People's Court established the Environmental Resources Tribunal to handle relevant cases and supervise and guide the environmental resources trial work of courts nationwide. Up to now, 30 higher courts and XPCC branches have established environmental resources tribunals, and there are 2,813 special environmental resources trial institutions and organizations nationwide. The Supreme People's Court and the environmental resources adjudication bodies of local courts at all levels actively explore the "three-in-one" of criminal, civil, and administrative adjudication functions related to environmental resources, and promote the coordination of criminal prosecution with civil compensation and administrative performance in accordance with law.
Promote normative guidance, and strive to improve the norms for the application of law in environmental resources cases. According to the report, since 2018, 14 judicial interpretations on environmental resources have been formulated and revised, 14 normative documents have been issued, 40 thematic guiding cases have been released, and 24 batches of 278 typical cases have been released.
The report points out that in recent years, the environmental resources trial work has achieved obvious results, but compared with the requirements of the Party Central Committee and the expectations of the people, and compared with the heavier tasks proposed by the 20th National Congress of the Communist Party of China to promote the construction of a beautiful China, there is still a big gap: collaborative governance needs to be further deepened, the construction of judicial auxiliary mechanisms must be further strengthened, the construction of specialization needs to be further deepened, and the ability and quality must be further improved.
The report recommends standardizing and detailing the management, use and supervision mechanisms of funds related to ecological and environmental compensation, ensuring the effective use of funds and the timely restoration of the ecological environment; promoting the optimization and improvement of environmental judicial appraisal work, standardizing the construction of environmental forensic appraisal mechanisms and the management of fees for appraisal and assessment industries; further improving the construction of relevant legal systems, and continuously consolidating the foundation of the rule of law for environmental resource protection.
A report on the people's procuratorate's procuratorial work on ecological environment and resource protection is submitted for deliberation
Promote the improvement of the quality and efficiency of environmental resources law enforcement and justice
Zhang Xuan, reporter of this newspaper
On October 21, at the sixth meeting of the Standing Committee of the 14th National People's Congress, Ying Yong, chief procurator of the Supreme People's Procuratorate, delivered a report on the people's procuratorate's procuratorial work on ecological environment and resource protection.
From 2018 to June this year, procuratorial organs across the country handled 823,000 environmental resource cases of various kinds. Among them, from 2018 to 2022, 65,000 cases of environmental resources crimes were accepted, reviewed and arrested, an increase of 55.7% over the previous five years; 210,000 cases were accepted, reviewed and prosecuted, an increase of 94.2% over the previous five years; 63,000 civil administrative procuratorial supervision cases of environmental resources were handled, an average annual increase of 54.5%; and 395,000 public interest lawsuits in the field of ecological environment and resource protection were filed, an average annual increase of 12.5%.
Procuratorial organs adhere to a strict tone and punish environmental resource crimes in accordance with the law. From 2018 to June this year, 43,000 people were accepted for environmental pollution crimes. Among them, 2022 is 31.7% lower than in 2018. With continued severe punishment, such crimes are on the decline.
"From 2018 to June this year, the procuratorate faithfully performed its sacred duty as a 'public interest representative', handling 388,000 administrative public interest lawsuits and 59,000 civil public interest lawsuits in the field of ecological environment and resource protection. "The report shows that the procuratorial organs issued 326,000 pre-litigation procuratorial suggestions to administrative organs, and the administrative organs responded with a rectification rate of 99.3%, and the vast majority of public interest damage problems were resolved before litigation. For exemplary cases that cannot be solved before litigation, it insists on reflecting the judicial value of the confirmation of "litigation", and 25,000 lawsuits have been initiated, and 22,000 cases have been concluded by the courts, 99.8% of which have been supported by judgments.
检察机关加强诉讼监督，Promote the improvement of the quality and efficiency of environmental resources law enforcement and justice。刑事诉讼监督中，2018年至今年6月，对认为应立案而未立案的环境资源案件，督促公安机关立案9543件。民事诉讼监督中，重点加强土地承包经营权转让合同纠纷、采矿权转让合同纠纷、环境污染责任纠纷等民事诉讼监督，引导民事主体节约资源、保护环境。行政诉讼监督中，针对土地行政处罚决定执行难，部署行政非诉执行专项监督，监督怠于申请强制执行、不规范执行等案件3.2万件，涉土地35.2万亩。
Procuratorial organs adhere to the integration of the upper and lower levels, internal and external linkage, take the initiative to report to local party committees and people's congresses on environmental resources procuratorial work, deepen cross-departmental coordination and linkage between law enforcement and justice, improve the mechanism for procuratorial organs to perform their duties as a whole, and improve the social support work mechanism, and work together to play a "combined fist" of coordinated protection.
The report points out that although positive progress has been made in the procuratorial work of ecological environment and resource protection in recent years, there are still many problems and difficulties: the quality and efficiency of services for "high-quality development and high-level protection" need to be improved, the role of legal supervision functions is not fully played, the implementation of the collaborative protection system and mechanism is not in place, the grassroots ecological environment and resource protection procuratorial team is relatively weak, and the procuratorial public interest litigation system needs to be further improved.
The report recommends accelerating the compilation of the ecological and environmental code, solving the problem of fragmentation of legislation in the field of ecological environmental protection, and providing a fuller basis for environmental resources law enforcement and justice; accelerating the advancement of special legislation on procuratorial public interest litigation, making systematic provisions on the positioning, scope, procedures, and supporting safeguards of procuratorial public interest litigation; further promoting the improvement of mechanisms for linking environmental resources administrative law enforcement and criminal justice, improving standards and procedures for transferring cases, and promoting the seamless connection between administrative punishment and criminal punishment.
