To help people better understand the essences of the newly revised statistical law of China, this paper explains the main contents and rules established in the new statistical law of China. By comparison with the former Statistical Law, we focus on 7 aspects as follows： preventing power from intervening in statistics; strengthening the administrative authority of the statistical institutions; promoting the statistical administrative behaviors; strengthening the statistical accountability of governments at all levels; reinforcing the confidentiality rules; improving the mechanism of statistical information sharing; introducing the international statistical rules and standards. This paper shows that the newly revised Statistical Law of China embodies the principle of law-based administration, and it is a new milestone in the process of the statistical legislation in China. The new statistical law could potentially ensure the data quality and promote the government credibility.
