In order to comprehensively study and implement the spirit of the 20th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, since last year, the work of policies and regulations for veterans has achieved new results in improving the construction of policies and systems, continuously improving the ability to administer according to law, comprehensively improving the quality and efficiency of legal services, carrying out in-depth publicity and interpretation of policies and regulations, and continuously strengthening the application of theoretical research.
Legislation in key areas has been steadily advanced. Since last year, the Ministry of Veterans Affairs has focused on the problems that need to be solved urgently, accelerated the filling of legislative gaps, and woven a dense system of laws and regulations. Focus on promoting the formulation and revision of the "Regulations on the Placement of Retired Servicemen", "Regulations on Preferential Treatment for Military Pensions", "Regulations on the Praise of Martyrs", and "Regulations on the Promotion of Employment and Entrepreneurship of Retired Servicemen", revise and complete the "Measures for Public Sacrifices for Martyrs", and further improve policies and systems in areas such as ideology and politics, transfer and resettlement, education and training, employment and entrepreneurship, preferential treatment and pensions, praise of martyrs, protection of rights and interests, and service management.
The efficiency of administration according to law continues to improve. In order to implement the decision-making and deployment and fully perform the management and security functions of veterans, the Ministry of Veterans Affairs issued opinions on standardizing the formulation and management of administrative discretion benchmarks for veterans' work, guiding all localities to establish a benchmark system for administrative discretion in veterans' work, refining and quantifying the law enforcement standards of veterans' affairs departments in the specific administrative law enforcement process, and continuously improving the quality and efficiency of administrative law enforcement.
Formulate a list of internal Party regulations and national laws that leading cadres in the veterans' affairs system should be aware of, and include the Constitution in the learning content of the Party committee (Party group) theoretical study center group, as a compulsory course for leading cadres in on-the-job training and on-the-job training. Fully implement the review mechanism for the legality of administrative normative documents, strengthen the assessment of consistency with macro policies, and ensure the legality and effectiveness of administrative normative documents from the source.
The quality and efficiency of legal services have been continuously improved. Vigorously promote legal aid and legal services. Implement the "Opinions on Strengthening Legal Aid Work for Veterans", guiding all localities to accelerate the establishment of legal consultation windows, legal aid workstations, and contact points. Go to many places to carry out special research on the establishment of legal aid and legal service volunteer teams, organize and convene experience exchange meetings, select some provinces and cities for pilot projects, select a group of legal professionals who care about veterans and are familiar with the work of veterans, and form a volunteer legal aid team for veterans to provide free or preferential services for veterans. Carry out the first activity of "going to the grassroots level and going to the frontier" for veterans to provide legal services such as legal consultation, case analysis and guidance, litigation and legal policy lectures to some veterans and officers and soldiers in Tibet, so as to help the grassroots solve difficult legal problems and safeguard the legitimate rights and interests of veterans in accordance with the law.
The work of popularizing legal knowledge has been carried out extensively and deeply. Innovate forms of legal popularization and publicity, and set up legal publicity columns on the official WeChat account of the Ministry of Veterans Affairs and the "Set Sail Again" app, to widely carry out social legal popularization and expand the coverage of popular legal education. In the adaptability training, pre-job training, and employment and entrepreneurship training for veterans, make education on the rule of law a compulsory part of the curriculum. Guide all localities to train lecturers on the Law on the Protection of Veterans and "people who understand the law" for veterans. Give full play to the advantages of service centers (stations) for veterans with wide coverage and strong dissemination, and organize service centers (stations) for veterans at all levels to adopt methods such as setting up legal popularization publicity display racks, hanging propaganda posters, and distributing publicity leaflets, to continuously increase veterans' awareness of laws and regulations and recognition of the spirit of the rule of law.
The atmosphere of theoretical research is becoming stronger and stronger. Since last year, the Ministry of Veterans Affairs has vigorously promoted the construction of expert think tanks and actively played the role of "external brains". The second meeting of the Expert Advisory Committee of the Ministry of Veterans Affairs and the annual working meeting of the Veterans Affairs Research Base were held, and 32 well-known experts and scholars with high theoretical level or rich practical experience in the fields related to the work of veterans were appointed as the consulting experts of the new Ministry. Solidly carry out activities such as subject research, special tasks and collection of excellent research results, closely follow the needs of the situation and tasks, improve the relevant working mechanism, continuously release the effectiveness of expert information and political advice, and form a number of excellent research results.
This year, the Ministry of Veterans Affairs will promote scientific legislation, administration according to law, legal services, and legal popularization and publicity, and strive to improve the level of policy research, so as to provide strong legal guarantees and scientific decision-making support for the high-quality development of veterans' work. **:Rule of law**.
