Enforcement of water pollution prevention, control law to be examined

BEIJING, Dec. 28 (Xinhuanet) -- The Standing Committee of the 10th National People's Congress (NPC) will examine the enforcement of the law on water pollution prevention and control again in 2006, after a slew of water pollution accidents occurred in 2005.

move accords with the 2006 law enforcement examination plan,which was approved by a chairman and vice-chairpersons meeting of the 10th NPC Standing Committee earlier this month.

official with the 10th NPC Standing Committee said that in 2005, the legislature dispatched a group to examine the enforcement of water pollution prevention and control laws and draw a conclusion that China's water pollution situation remained serious.

in 2006, the 10th NPC Standing Committee will continue to examine the law's enforcement so as to curb the frequency of the water pollution accidents, the official said.
