环境保护问责机制研究

Accountability Mechanisms of the Environmental Protection

环境的公益性决定了政府应当对环境负责。为此,各国法律均规定了政府的环境责任。2006年2月20日,监察部、原国家环保总局发布了我国首个环境问责规定。然而,由于环境保护责任的缺失以及问责机制的不健全,环境问责的有关规定并未发挥其应有的作用。目前,我国的环境问责主要是风暴式的,随意性大,势必出现问责结果的不公。环境问责制不是一项单一的制度,它包括问责的依据和条件、问责的主体和对象、问责的方式(内容)和程序等一系列配套制度。

The public of the environment determines that government should be responsible for the environment.So many countries＇ laws have ruled the governments＇ environmental responsibility.On February,20,2006,the Ministry of Supervision,the former State Environmental Protection Administration of China issued the first rules about the environmental accountability.However,due to lack of environmental responsibility and inadequate accountability mechanisms,the relevant provisions of the environment accountability is not to perform their proper functions.At present,China＇s environmental accountability is mainly the storm-style and arbitrary,which are bound to appear unfair results.The environment accountability mechanism is not a single system which includes a series of supporting systems such as the basis and conditions of accountability,the subject and object of the accountability,the contents and procedures and so on.
