Reflection About The System Of Relative-concentrated Administrative Punishment Right In City Management

The implementation of System of Relative-Concentrated Administrative Punishment Right has a deep effect to the work of city administration. In March, 1996, Eighth NPC 4th meeting has passed "the Administrative Punishment Act", which made a clear definition about the acquisition, holding and use of the administrative punishment rights of China's administrative authority. From October, 1997, many cities of China began the experimental work of the System of Relative-Concentrated Administrative Punishment Right in the city administration and administrative enforcement. Much attention is given to the implementation of the system from the academic and other fields of the society. There are two kinds of feedback. Some people advocate it as a reforming innovation of system of administrative management, administrative law-enforcement and administrative punishment and think the system has a great significance. Others have discussed the illegal presence and irrationality of Relative-Concentrated Administrative Punishment Right from the legitimacy of the constitution.This paper uses the practice of Soochow Industrial Park's city administration and administrative enforcement as the typical examples. From analyzing the problems encountered and the accumulated experience of the local law-enforcement departments, the paper reveals the advantages and defects of the Relative-Concentrated Administrative Punishment Right, points out the problems that the system may encounter with the development of the society and cities and finally proposes appropriate measures.
