Beijing, December 22 (Xinhua) — Legislative work on China's draft environmental code is moving forward. On Monday, the revised draft code was submitted for third reading at the current session of the Standing Committee of the National People's Congress.

The revised draft improves provisions regarding the organization and management of burning straw, fallen leaves, etc., and introduces regulatory measures to address the difficult problems of dumping and transporting solid waste between various provincial-level administrative units in the country.

The draft clarifies that in emergency situations where wild animals pose a threat to personal safety, measures taken that result in harm to animals do not entail legal liability.

In addition, the revised draft includes corresponding amendments to the procedural order for compensation for environmental damage. -0-
