Submitted to the national energy board, the national energy board audit summary submitted to the State Council for consideration.

In July 7th, the reporter was informed that the four major frameworks for the construction of the new coal law system have been initially set up, involving 22 regulations, especially to increase the entry threshold for coal mining. However, some details need to be further finalized, which has left some difficulties for the implementation of the new coal law.

New coal law

Four major frameworks initially set

Although the revision of the coal law has been shelved temporarily due to the energy law, it has been in a state of readiness.

In July 7th, an authoritative expert member of the coal law revision group revealed to reporters: "with the final draft of the energy law is about to be finalized, the revision of the" coal law "is speeding up. At present, the four major frameworks for the construction of the new coal law system have been initially set up, involving 22 laws and regulations, and some details need to be further finalized.

It is reported that the revised draft can be submitted to the State Energy Bureau as soon as possible, and submitted to the State Council for consideration after the national energy board has been reviewed and summarized.

"The four major frameworks mainly include legislation on coal planning and resource management, legislation on coal production and production, coal mine safety and protection of miners' rights and interests, and environmental protection legislation."

The authoritative expert told reporters.

According to the reporter, the new coal law will strengthen the first.

"At the same time, the new"

Stranded five years behind the twists and turns

However, the revision of the coal law can be described as twists and turns.

In March 14, 2005, the NDRC issued a notice that the revision of the coal law has been officially launched. This is the first revision since the implementation of the coal law in 1996.

In those days, the revision of the coal law had been made easier.

In January 2006, 15 ministries and commissions, including the NDRC, the Legislative Affairs Office of the State Council and the Ministry of finance, set up an inter departmental drafting Working Group on the energy law.

The drafting of the energy law has dragged down the revision of the coal law, and the energy law as the parent law should be the reference of the "coal law" of the son law.

An expert from China coal pportation and Marketing Association told reporters.

According to the latest news,

Re planning access threshold

However, the most notable thing is that the new coal law will focus on redefining the qualification of coal resources exploration and mining and improving the access conditions for development.

The current "coal law" stipulates that the operation of coal is licensed, but at the same time, it advocates the right of coal users to purchase coal directly from coal mining enterprises, leading to the fact that everyone in China can buy and sell coal at present.

"This led to chaos in the ranks of coal middlemen, which further aggravated the chaos in the order of coal mining."

Guo Yuntao, director of China Coal Industry Development Research Center, pointed out.

The reporter learned that the new coal law will improve the access conditions for coal resources development and standardize the order of coal resources development. The key is to formulate a series of relevant regulations, improve the management system of bidding, project evaluation, design review, project approval, etc., and strengthen the qualification management of coal charcoal construction projects, and standardize the market order of coal construction projects.

Although the coal law is coming soon, some specific details of the four legal frameworks and 22 statutes have not yet been finalized, such as raising the specific standards for coal mining admittance, and how to deal with the existing illegal coal mines once the new standards have been promulgated.

Guo Yuntao pointed out that when the current coal law was formulated, the coal industry was directly managed by the Ministry of coal. After the Ministry of coal was revoked, the local administrative departments were subsequently revoked. Now the management rights of various places to the coal enterprises belong to the economic and Trade Commission, some belong to the NDRC, the whole management has weakened, and the resources are privately exploited.

Han Ying, Deputy Minister of the former coal ministry, told reporters that the implementation of the current coal law is inadequate. Some regulations are basically empty paper. The revised coal law should clearly stipulate the specific supervision and supervision departments, and strengthen accountability so that the new law can be more operable.

"At the same time, there should be supporting reforms in related mechanisms to be implemented."

Han Ying said.
