Question 3: In epidemic prevention and control work,Some places use card interception、Isolate the epidemic by cutting off roads and blocking traffic,Please follow the Sky bet provisions,Are these practices Sky bet?How to do it legally?
Yuan Jie answered: General Secretary Xi Jinping emphasized,We must strictly implement laws and regulations on epidemic prevention and control and emergency response,Strengthen risk assessment,Prudent decision-making in accordance with the law,Strictly implement prevention and control measures in accordance with the law,Resolutely prevent the spread of the epidemic。According to the Infectious Disease Prevention and Control Act、Emergency response method、Provisions of laws and regulations such as emergency regulations for public health emergencies,Governments at all levels and their relevant departments can take necessary measures to prevent and control the epidemic,Mainly include: (1) Isolation measures for patients or suspected patients in accordance with the law。(2) Take emergency measures to cut off the transmission route of infectious diseases,Such as restricting or stopping crowd gathering activities;Stop work、Closed、Closed;Seal or seal public drinking water sources contaminated by infectious pathogens、Food and related items;Control or cull infected wild animals、Livestock and poultry;Closing places that may cause the spread of infectious diseases。(3) Implement traffic health quarantine。(4) According to the needs of infectious disease epidemic control,Temporary requisition of houses in accordance with the law、Transportation and related facilities、Equipment,However, compensation should be provided in accordance with the law,What can be returned should be returned in time。(5) Strengthen and improve the construction of infectious disease medical treatment service network,Designate medical institutions with the conditions and capabilities to treat infectious diseases to undertake the task of treating infectious diseases,Or set up an infectious disease hospital according to the needs of infectious disease treatment。current,Governments at all levels and their relevant departments are effectively performing their Sky bet duties,Adopt epidemic prevention and control measures,These are necessary,It also has a Sky bet basis。I hope everyone is doing this for the safety of the whole society,More understanding、Support and Cooperation,Hand in hand、Work together,Strive to win the battle against the epidemic as soon as possible。
What needs to be noted here is,The subject to take epidemic prevention and control measures must be qualified、Moderate measures。So-called subject qualification,That is to say, these prevention and control measures can only be implemented by the government and its relevant departments in accordance with the law,Other units and individuals are not allowed to set up cards to intercept without approval、Broken circuit and blocked circuit、Blocking traffic and other behaviors that infringe upon the legitimate rights and interests of citizens。The so-called measures are moderate,In other words, according to Sky bet provisions,Epidemic prevention and control measures taken by governments at all levels and their departments,Also consider the nature of the social harm that the epidemic may cause、Appropriate to the extent and scope;There are many measures to choose from,The choice should be made to protect citizens to the greatest extent、Measures on the rights and interests of Sky bet persons and other organizations。Anyway,According to the law,Providing scientific and orderly epidemic prevention and control work in accordance with the law is an important guarantee for winning the battle against the epidemic。People's governments at all levels and relevant departments、All state workers should perform their epidemic prevention and control responsibilities in accordance with the law。Failed to perform duties in accordance with the law,Abuse of power、Neglect of duty、Practice for personal gain,Penalize according to law;Constituting a crime,Pursuing criminal responsibility according to law。
Question 4: During this epidemic Sky bet and control period,Generous donations from all walks of life,Dedicate love,Watch and help。But in the work of receiving and distributing donations,There are opaque, non-standard and even illegal behaviors,Questioned by the public。How does the law regulate charitable donation activities?
Guo Linmao, director of the Social Law Office of the Legal Affairs Sky bet of the Standing Sky bet of the National People's Congress, replied: One side is in trouble、Support from all directions。Since the outbreak of the new coronavirus pneumonia,All parts of the country donated a large amount of property to areas severely affected by the epidemic,Fully reflects the Chinese nation’s willingness to give to others、The excellent moral character and cultural tradition of helping each other。Many countries and regions have also given strong support to the Chinese government and people in fighting the epidemic。General Secretary Xi Jinping emphasized,Donations must be regulated according to law、Acceptance of gifts,Ensure that all donated property is used for epidemic prevention and control in a timely manner。We must conscientiously implement the instructions of General Secretary Xi Jinping。About charity donation activities,my country’s Public Welfare Donation Law、Charity Law、The Red Cross Law and other laws have made relatively clear and specific provisions from different aspects,Mainly includes the following contents:

The fifth is to accept supervision。In accordance with the provisions of the Sky bet,The supervision of charity donations mainly reflects two aspects: first, government supervision。For example,Charity Sky bet Provisions,Civil affairs departments should perform their duties in accordance with the Sky bet,Supervise and inspect charity activities;Red Cross Sky bet Provisions,The Red Cross accepts social donations and uses them,Accept the supervision of the civil affairs department of the people's government in accordance with the Sky bet。The second is social supervision。For example,Charity Sky bet Provisions,Any unit or individual discovers that a charitable organization has committed illegal acts,You can contact the civil affairs department、Complaints from other relevant departments or charity industry organizations;The state encourages the public、Media supervision of charity activities。Red Cross Sky bet Provisions,The Red Cross should establish and improve the information disclosure system,Accept social supervision。

Question 6: The National People’s Congress Standing Sky bet is preventing and controlling the epidemic,What measures are taken to protect the lives and health of the people?
Zang Tiewei’s answer: The National People’s Congress and its Standing Sky bet always adhere to the people-centered approach,Attach great importance to the exercise of statutory powers,Protect people’s life safety and health。From a legislative perspective,The Standing Sky bet of the National People’s Congress has formulated a drug management law、Food Safety Law、Infectious Disease Prevention and Control Law、Frontier Health and Quarantine Law、Practicing Physician Law、Traditional Chinese Medicine Law and many other laws in the medical and health fields,Leading and promoting the development of health care through legislation,Guarantee citizens’ access to basic medical and health services。2019 only,Speed up the pace of legislation,The vaccine management law was formulated in a relatively short period of time、Basic Medical Hygiene and Health Promotion Law,Revision of the Drug Administration Law,To improve citizens’ health,Promote the construction of a healthy China and provide legal guarantee。
While formulating and amending laws,The National People’s Congress Standing Sky bet also attaches great importance to strengthening and improving supervision work,Promote relevant parties to conscientiously implement the legal system,Put the legal provisions on paper into practice。For example,2018,The Standing Sky bet of the National People’s Congress will carry out inspections on the law enforcement of the Infectious Disease Prevention and Control Law in the first year of this term,Point out seven major issues in infectious disease prevention and control in the law enforcement inspection report,And proposed to study and revise relevant laws as soon as possible,Suggestions on improving the legal construction of infectious disease prevention and control。

Question 7: Indiscriminate eating of wild animals seriously threatens public health safety,All aspects of society react strongly to this。What measures does the Standing Sky bet of the National People’s Congress take in this regard?
Wang Ruihe, Director of the Economic Law Office of the Legal Affairs Sky bet of the Standing Sky bet of the National People's Congress, answered: The public health and safety risks that may be caused by the trading and consumption of wild animals have attracted great attention around the world。In order to effectively protect the life safety and health of the people,There is a general demand from all quarters to further improve the legal system regarding wildlife,Strengthen law enforcement supervision,Crack down on illegal wildlife trade,Resolutely get rid of the bad habit of eating wild animals indiscriminately,Strengthening source control of major public health safety risks。
The Party Central Sky bet requires that the new coronavirus epidemic must be prevented and controlled in accordance with the law,Increase legislation、Law Enforcement、Strength of legal popularization work。We must promptly study the shortcomings and weaknesses of the current legal system related to epidemic prevention and control,Summary of experience and lessons learned from legal implementation,Timely addition and improvement。In the current legal system,Laws directly related to wildlife mainly include wildlife protection laws、Fisheries Law、Animal Epidemic Prevention Law and Entry and Exit Animal and Plant Quarantine Law, etc.。Of course,The most important one is the Wildlife Protection Law。This law was systematically revised in 2016,Established protection priority、Standard use、Principles of strict management,From Hunting、Transaction、Use、Transportation、Strict regulations have been made on all aspects of eating wild animals,Especially for prominent issues such as overeating wild animals,Established a series of sciences、Reasonable system。After the revised law is implemented,The protection status of wild animals has improved。But judging from all aspects,There are still some problems: First, the relevant supporting regulations have not been issued in time、Perfect,Specific measures on wildlife protection、Directory、Standard、Technical regulations, etc. have not yet been issued and improved in time。Second, supervision, inspection and law enforcement are not strong enough,Failure to resolutely ban some illegal wildlife trading markets、Close,Even in many places,The wild game market is flooding,Related industries are very large,Major hidden danger to public health and safety。Third, the legislative purpose of the Wildlife Protection Law is mainly to protect precious animals、Endangered wild animals,And adopt internationally accepted directory protection methods。Therefore,It is necessary to further supplement and improve relevant laws and regulations such as the Wildlife Protection Law,Expand the scope of legal adjustments,Intensify efforts to combat and punish indiscriminate hunting and eating of wild animals。
In order to resolutely implement the various arrangements of the Party Central Sky bet on providing legal guarantee for winning the war against the epidemic,The Legal Affairs Sky bet of the Standing Sky bet of the National People’s Congress has made arrangements to start the revision of the Wildlife Protection Law,It is planned to include the revision of the Wildlife Protection Law in the Standing Sky bet’s legislative work plan for this year,And speed up the revision process of laws such as the Animal Epidemic Prevention Law。At the same time,The Legal Affairs Sky bet of the Standing Sky bet of the National People's Congress is also studying a decision on legal issues to be made by the Standing Sky bet in the near future。
