海南省检察环境公益诉讼现状及其优化路径

A Review of the Current Situation of the Prosecution of Environmental Public Interest Litigation in Hainan Province and Its Optimization

检察环境公益诉讼对于保护生态环境、促进可持续发展、落实政府责任、维护公众权益以及增强法治意识具有重要意义。以海南省为例,构建具有海南特色、系统完整的检察环境公益诉讼制度,是践行“两山”理论的前提,是海南自贸港“绿色崛起”过程中不能回避的一个重要议题。然而,通过检视海南省检察环境公益诉讼的司法现状发现,目前存在检察机关职能定位偏差、诉前程序制度的疏漏、诉讼程序规则的体系圆融困境等问题,建议从明确检察院以监督职能为主的职能定位、注重发挥公益诉讼诉前程序之独立价值、完善诉讼程序规则圆融体系等方面入手加以解决。

The Prosecution of environmental public interest litigation is significant for protecting the ecological environment,promoting sustainable development,implementing government responsibility,safeguarding public rights,and enhancing legal consciousness.Taking Hainan Province as an example,the establishment of a distinctive and comprehensive prosecution of environmental public interest litigation system is a prerequisite for practicing the theory of“Two Mountains”,and is also an important issue that cannot be ignored in the process of the“green development”of Hainan Free Trade Port.However,through an examination of the judicial status quo of the prosecution of environmental public interest litigation in Hainan Province,it is found that there are current issues such as deviations in the functional positioning of procuratorial organs,oversights in the procedural systems of pre-litigation procedural systems,and challenges in the harmonization of litigation procedural rules.It is recommended to address these issues by clarifying the primary role of procuratorial organs in supervision,emphasizing the independent value of pre-litigation procedures in public interest litigation,and improving the harmonization of the system of procedural rules of litigation.
