Criminal procedure law is the basic law to regulate criminal procedure. China's current criminal procedure law was enacted in 1979 and revised in 1996 at the fourth session of the Eighth National People's Congress. Practice has proved that the criminal procedure system in China is scientific and reasonable on the whole. Since the revision of the Criminal Procedure Law 16, China's economy and society have developed rapidly, and new situations have emerged in criminal offences. In accordance with the requirements of the central authorities on deepening the reform of the judicial system and working mechanism, the Criminal Procedure Law should be revised and improved on the basis of carefully sorting out the deputies' motions, profoundly summing up practical experience and extensively soliciting opinions. Mainly reflected in the following aspects:
Amending the criminal procedure law is the need to further strengthen the punishment of crimes and protect the people. At present, there are many new situations and some problems that need to be solved urgently in punishing crimes. At the same time, the promotion of national democracy and legal system construction and the enhancement of people's legal concept put forward higher requirements for safeguarding judicial justice and safeguarding citizens' rights. The revision of the criminal procedure law is of great concern to all parties. Since this congress, 2,485 NPC deputies and 1 delegations have put forward 8 1 related proposals. The judiciary and other parties are also constantly proposing amendments to the Criminal Procedure Law. It is urgent to improve the criminal procedure, further ensure that the judicial organs punish crimes accurately and timely, and protect citizens' litigation rights and other legitimate rights.

Amending the criminal procedure law is the need to strengthen and innovate social management and maintain social harmony and stability. At present, China is in a period of social transformation and prominent contradictions, with high incidence of criminal cases, increased serious violent crimes and new changes in crime types and means, which pose a severe challenge to China's social management. Accurately punishing crimes through criminal proceedings and maintaining social order play an important and irreplaceable role in strengthening and innovating social management. It is of great significance for the country's long-term stability and people's life to amend the Criminal Procedure Law in time, focusing on ensuring public safety and resolving social contradictions, and solving outstanding problems that are strongly reflected by the people and affect social harmony and stability.
Amending the criminal procedure law is the need to deepen the reform of the judicial system and working mechanism. Deepening the reform of the judicial system and working mechanism is an important strategic deployment made by the central government from the height of developing socialist democratic politics and accelerating the construction of a socialist country ruled by law. To further standardize judicial behavior and promote the construction of a fair, efficient and authoritative socialist judicial system, it is necessary to speed up the improvement of the criminal procedure system. Amending the criminal procedure law is a concrete measure to implement the central government's requirements for deepening the reform of the judicial system and working mechanism.
