The Supreme People's Court (SPC) and the Supreme People's Procuratorate (SPP) released their second batch of typical cases in administrative public interest litigation at a joint press conference on Dec 30.
Following the positive feedback to the first batch released in December 2023, the second batch of seven cases maintains the style of the first and showcases the performance of people's courts and procuratorates in handling cases of administrative public interest litigation and effectively upholding judicial authority.
The newly released cases cover various areas, including workplace safety, protection of State-owned asset, food safety, preservation of cultural relics, barrier-free environment construction, protection of minors and personal information protection. The cases highlight the positive role of administrative public interest litigation in promoting law-based administration by administrative agencies, safeguarding public interests and advancing modernization in national governance.
At the conference, heads of relevant departments from the SPC and the SPP emphasized that, moving forward, courts and procuratorates will remain committed to their constitutional roles as national judicial and legal supervisory organs. Through law-based duty performance, effective collaboration and pragmatic efforts, courts and procuratorates will promote the high-quality development of administrative public interest litigation, ensuring that judicial organs play a supportive and proactive role in national governance, according to the press conference.
