Currently, China has 306 laws in effect, more than 600 administrative and supervisory regulations, and over 14,000 local regulations, according to Mr Shen.

Other aims are to enhance legal institutions to improve people’s livelihoods and reinforce the legal guarantee for environmental protection, Mr Shen said.
Focusing on these aspects, China has enacted a series of key laws, including the Private Economy Promotion Law, the Anti-Foreign Sanctions Law, the Personal Information Protection Law, and the Yellow River Protection Law, according to Mr Shen.
