Features: The "Administrative Penalty Law of the People's Republic of China," which was adopted by the Fourth Session of the Eighth National People's Congress on March 17, 1996, came into effect on October 1, 1996. The promulgation and implementation of the Administrative Penalty Law is a significant event in the process of democratic and legal development in China. It plays a crucial role in standardizing the establishment and implementation of administrative penalties, ensuring and supervising the effective administration of government agencies, safeguarding the public interest and social order, and protecting the legitimate rights and interests of citizens, legal persons, or other organizations. Seriously studying and grasping the basic spirit of the Administrative Penalty Law is the key to its implementation. Therefore, several of us from the government legal affairs institutions who had the privilege of participating in the research and drafting of the Administrative Penalty Law have compiled this "Interpretation of the Administrative Penalty Law" in the hope of providing assistance in learning, understanding, and mastering the Administrative Penalty Law.
