What is the necessity of e-government legislation?

China's information legislation has made considerable achievements: laws on intellectual property rights, information confidentiality and computer system security have been established, but it should be noted that the task of information legislation in China is still quite heavy, especially in government information resource management, information market regulation and privacy protection, and there are still many gaps, and there is no corresponding law to regulate them.

Over the past 20 years, China has successively promulgated laws and regulations such as Regulations on the Protection of Computer Software, Regulations on the Safety Protection of Computer Systems, Regulations on Telecommunications, Measures for the Administration of Internet Access Services, Decision on Maintaining Internet Security, and Electronic Signature Law. However, on the whole, the construction of legal norms of e-government in China still lags behind the development of e-government, and many matters that need legal norms have no corresponding legal norms, which are mainly manifested as: clarifying legal status and effectiveness. Is the legal status of e-government the same as that of tangible government? Does the network administrative act have the same legal effect as the traditional administrative act? Our country's laws have not made clear provisions on this positioning problem which is related to the fundamental nature of e-government. Therefore, the primary task of perfecting e-government legislation is to clearly define the legal status and effectiveness of e-government.

The birth and significance of modern information concept has brought people into a more brilliant era, which indicates the end of the mechanical era. The rapid development and wide application of information technology will inevitably lead to a series of new social relations and social problems as well as changes in the original social relations. It has become an objective need of social development to adjust various new social relations and contradictions formed by law. On the whole, China's information legislation is disorganized and programmatic, which is basically "treating the headache and treating the foot pain". Therefore, the primary task of China's information legislation is to make a series of analysis on the information legal system, make clear the various legal systems it should contain, thus forming the overall framework of information law, and gradually establishing and perfecting China's information legal system in a planned way.

Abstract: Obviously, there are still many gaps in China's information legislation, which need to be regulated by law. Understanding the changes brought by the information society requires the gradual legalization of e-government in China, and its necessity is beyond doubt. Understand the important role of e-government legislation in medium-sized cities in China's e-government construction. (
