Study On The Exercise Of Administrative Punishment By Township People’s Governments

Article 24 of the newly revised Administrative Punishment Law in2021 gives the township people’s government a certain range of administrative punishment power,which provides a legal basis for grassroots administrative law enforcement,and is conducive to strengthening the people-oriented law enforcement concept,realizing the law-based and refined grassroots governance and promoting the rationalization of the main body system of administrative law enforcement.Delegating the power of administrative punishment to the township people’s government is the vertical allocation of administrative enforcement power,which should meet the corresponding conditions.However,the conditions and standards of empowerment cannot be accurately understood when the law sets the conditions of administrative punishment by the township people’s government in principle and generality.At the same time,in the process of grassroots law enforcement system reform,the administrative law enforcement of the township people’s government has problems such as insufficient capacity,weak coordination and imperfect law enforcement supervision system.It is of great practical significance to study and solve these problems to improve the efficiency of grassroots governance and ensure the effectiveness of grassroots law enforcement system reform.Therefore,this paper is divided into four parts: the first part,from the basic theory of the township people’s government to exercise the power of administrative punishment,in the principle of the consistency of power and responsibility and the existing normative system,realize that the township people’s government to exercise the power of administrative punishment has the basis of legitimacy;Combined with the theory of the generation and transfer of administrative power,it is clear that the power of administrative punishment given to the township people’s government is the vertical configuration of administrative enforcement power.From the perspective of the rule of law,understand the significance of giving the township people’s government the power of administrative punishment to grass-roots governance.The second part interprets article 24 of the Administrative Punishment Law,and further details the conditions for the township people’s government to exercise the power of administrative punishment from the aspects of delegating the main body,undertaking the main body and empowering the scope.The third part,the analysis of the practice of the township people’s government law enforcement problems,and summed up the excellent experience of reform.The fourth part,from the law enforcement ability,coordinated law enforcement and supervision system,put forward suggestions for improvement.
