Stipulations of amendment to the Criminal Law of the People’s Republic of China provide legal basis for judicial administrative organ, and lay the important foundation for penal execution system of reformation and perfection. It marks the establishment of community correction measures in our country. As the way of the execution of criminal punishment, the community correction more and more comes to the focus in our country, but it is still in preliminary build level. There are many problems that need to be detailed deeply and located exactly.
