On Legislation of Administrative Procedure

Administrative law is an organic combination of both the law of administrative entities and the law of administrative procedure. As breach of the law of administrative entities, failure to discharge the obligations provided for by procedure should also take the corresponding legal responsibility. Of all the elements of administrative procedure, steps and manners take the form of space while the sequence and time limit take the form of time. Administrative procedure reflects certain principles and is executed under certain systems. The Constitution of our country has provided the basic foundation for legislation of administrative procedure, enactment of the Law of Administrative Litigation has greatly promoted the process, the Law of Legislation and the Law of Administrative Reconsideration have stipulated many concrete procedures, and the Law of Administrative Punishment, in particular, has opened up new land in legislation in our country by absorbing the procedure of evidentiary hearing into legislation. It can be safely predicted that the first decade of this century must be a prosperous time for legislation of administrative procedure.
