The year 2013 was a new starting point for China’s deepening reforms. Comprehensively complementary reforms need to go hand in hand with the building of a comprehensive rule of law regime.Therefore，the legislation in 2013 was primarily focused on the following areas：leading the reforms of the administrative system，advancing the transformation in the patterns of economic development，enhancing social welfare safeguard and social administration，encouraging science and technology innovations and cultural developments，enhancing the regulation of ecological environment and urban safety. In doing so，the new legislative developments not only spearheaded the relevant reforms，but also made substantial progress in the protection of rights and the enhancement of legislative quality and effectiveness. Legislative work in the future still needs to keep engaged with the real-time needs of the reform and development and the social realities，and prudently and steadily play a leading institutional role.
