This paper is to start with the position and responsibility of the State Security Council,analyzing its definition and position in China, and its differences and relations from other national security departments. Based on the reasons of power, citizen and authority, to explain the State Security Council, as a new national institutions, must be regulation by law. Furthermore, this paper is to learn from the legal regulation of the America, Russia, Japan and other country’s state security council, and to combine with the practical circumstances in our country, proposing some reasonable suggestions, from the amendment of Constitution and Law-making, about the State Security Council being regulation.
