全國人大及其常委會制定的法律，確立了國家經(jīng)濟(jì)建設(shè)、政治建設(shè)、文化建設(shè)、社會建設(shè)以及生態(tài)文明建設(shè)各個方面重要的基本的法律制度，構(gòu)成了中國特色社會主義法律體系的主干，也為行政法規(guī)、地方性法規(guī)的制定提供了重要依據(jù)。
行政法規(guī)是中國特色社會主義法律體系的重要組成部分。國務(wù)院根據(jù)憲法和法律，制定行政法規(guī)。這是國務(wù)院履行憲法和法律賦予的職責(zé)的重要形式。行政法規(guī)可以就執(zhí)行法律的規(guī)定和履行國務(wù)院行政管理職權(quán)的事項作出規(guī)定，同時對應(yīng)當(dāng)由全國人大及其常委會制定法律的事項，國務(wù)院可以根據(jù)全國人大及其常委會的授權(quán)決定先制定行政法規(guī)。行政法規(guī)在中國特色社會主義法律體系中具有重要地位，是將法律規(guī)定的相關(guān)制度具體化，是對法律的細(xì)化和補充。
國務(wù)院適應(yīng)經(jīng)濟(jì)社會發(fā)展和行政管理的實際需要，按照法定權(quán)限和法定程序制定了大量行政法規(guī)，包括行政管理的各個領(lǐng)域，涉及國家經(jīng)濟(jì)、政治、文化、社會事務(wù)等各個方面，對于實施憲法和法律，保障改革開放和社會主義現(xiàn)代化建設(shè)，促進(jìn)經(jīng)濟(jì)社會全面協(xié)調(diào)可持續(xù)發(fā)展，推進(jìn)各級人民政府依法行政，發(fā)揮了重要作用。
地方性法規(guī)是中國特色社會主義法律體系的又一重要組成部分。根據(jù)憲法和法律，省、自治區(qū)、直轄市和較大的市的人大及其常委會可以制定地方性法規(guī)。這是人民依法參與國家事務(wù)管理、促進(jìn)地方經(jīng)濟(jì)社會發(fā)展的重要途徑和形式。省、自治區(qū)、直轄市的人大及其常委會根據(jù)本行政區(qū)域的具體情況和實際需要，在不同憲法、法律、行政法規(guī)相抵觸的前提下，可以制定地方性法規(guī)。較大的市的人大及其常委會根據(jù)本市的具體情況和實際需要，在不同憲法、法律、行政法規(guī)和本省、自治區(qū)的地方性法規(guī)相抵觸的前提下，可以制定地方性法規(guī)，報省、自治區(qū)的人大常委會批準(zhǔn)后施行。民族自治地方的人民代表大會有權(quán)依照當(dāng)?shù)孛褡宓恼?、?jīng)濟(jì)和文化特點，制定自治條例和單行條例；自治條例和單行條例可以對法律和行政法規(guī)的規(guī)定作出變通規(guī)定，但不得違背法律和行政法規(guī)的基本原則，不得對憲法和民族區(qū)域自治法的規(guī)定以及其他法律、行政法規(guī)專門就民族自治地方所作的規(guī)定作出變通規(guī)定；自治區(qū)的自治條例和單行條例報全國人大常委會批準(zhǔn)后生效，自治州、自治縣的自治條例和單行條例報省、自治區(qū)、直轄市的人大常委會批準(zhǔn)后生效。經(jīng)濟(jì)特區(qū)所在地的省、市的人大及其常委會根據(jù)全國人大及其常委會的授權(quán)決定，可以根據(jù)經(jīng)濟(jì)特區(qū)的具體情況和實際需要，遵循憲法的規(guī)定以及法律、行政法規(guī)的基本原則，制定法規(guī)，在經(jīng)濟(jì)特區(qū)范圍內(nèi)實施。地方性法規(guī)可以就執(zhí)行法律、行政法規(guī)的規(guī)定和屬于地方性事務(wù)的事項作出規(guī)定，同時除只能由全國人大及其常委會制定法律的事項外，對其他事項國家尚未制定法律或者行政法規(guī)的，可以先制定地方性法規(guī)。地方性法規(guī)在中國特色社會主義法律體系中同樣具有重要地位，是對法律、行政法規(guī)的細(xì)化和補充，是國家立法的延伸和完善，為國家立法積累了有益經(jīng)驗。
The State Council, in accordance with the actual needs of socioeconomic development and administrative work, has enacted - within its statutory power limits and conforming to legal procedures - a large number of administrative regulations which cover all areas of administration, concerning the nation's economic, political, cultural and social matters. They play an important role in the implementation of the Constitution and laws, the guaranteeing of the reform and opening up and socialist modernization, the promotion of comprehensive, balanced and sustainable economic and social development and the advancement of administration in accordance with law of the people's governments at all levels.
Local regulations are another important component of the socialist system of laws with Chinese characteristics. The people's congresses and their standing committees of the provinces, autonomous regions, municipalities directly under the central government, and the larger cities may, in accordance with the Constitution and laws, formulate local regulations, which is an important channel and form of the people's participation in the administration of state affairs and promotion of local economic and social development by law. The people's congresses and their standing committees of the provinces, autonomous regions and municipalities directly under the central government may, in the light of the specific local conditions and actual needs, formulate local regulations, provided that they do not contradict the Constitution, the laws and the administrative regulations. The people's congresses and their standing committees of the larger cities may, in the light of the specific local conditions and actual needs, formulate local regulations, provided that they do not contradict the Constitution, laws, administrative regulations and local regulations of their respective provinces or autonomous regions. Moreover, they shall submit such regulations to the standing committees of the people's congresses of the provinces or autonomous regions for approval before implementation. The people's congresses of the ethnic autonomous areas have the power to formulate autonomous regulations and separate regulations on the basis of the political, economic and cultural characteristics of the local ethnic group(s). Where certain provisions of the laws and administrative regulations are concerned, adaptation may be made in autonomous regulations and separate regulations, but such adaptation may not contradict the basic principles of the laws and administrative regulations. However, no adaptation may be made to the provisions of the Constitution and the Law on Regional Ethnic Autonomy, or the provisions in other laws and administrative regulations that are specially formulated to govern the ethnic autonomous areas. The autonomous regulations and separate regulations of the autonomous regions shall be submitted to the Standing Committee of the NPC for approval before they go into effect. The autonomous regulations and separate regulations of the autonomous prefectures or counties shall be submitted to the standing committees of the people's congresses of the relevant provinces, autonomous regions or municipalities directly under the central government for approval before they go into effect. The people's congresses and their standing committees of the provinces and cities where special economic zones are located may, upon authorization by the NPC and its Standing Committee and in the light of specific local conditions and actual needs, formulate regulations in accordance with provisions of the Constitution and basic principles of the laws and administrative regulations, and enforce them within the limits of the special economic zones. Local regulations may be formulated to govern matters requiring the formulation of rules to implement the provisions of laws and administrative regulations, and matters pertaining to local affairs. Except for matters governed by laws exclusively formulated by the NPC and its Standing Committee, local regulations can also be made on other matters which are not yet covered by existing laws and administrative regulations. The local regulations also occupy an important position in the socialist system of laws with Chinese characteristics. They elaborate and supplement the laws and administrative regulations, extend and improve national legislation and accumulate useful experience for national legislation.
