The scientific legislation of the Winter Olympics will leave valuable institutional wealth for the future

*** As far as China's legal environment is concerned, the current situation facing the preparations for the Beijing Winter Olympic Games is obviously better than that when Beijing succeeded in its bid to host the Olympic Games in 2001. Liu Yan (distinguished expert of Legal Affairs Department of Beijing Winter Olympic Organizing Committee) The legislative work plan of Beijing Municipal Government for 2021 was published in mid May of that year, including legislative projects that fully reflect Beijing's characteristics and cooperate with the Winter Olympic Games and the winter Paralympic Games. Among them, the regulations of Beijing Municipality on the construction of barrier free environment shall enter into force on November 1, 2021, and the regulations of Beijing Municipality on the construction of language environment for international communication shall enter into force on January 1, 2022. The significance of the promulgation or revision of these two local regulations is not limited to the Beijing Winter Olympic Games and the winter Paralympic Games. Its focus is to implement the strategic positioning of the capital city and strengthen the construction of Beijing's "four centers". Generally speaking, China's laws and regulations can fully guarantee the preparation, operation and aftermath of the Winter Olympic Games. This is the mainstream, essence and most basic situation of the legal protection of the Winter Olympic Games. It has been fully explained to the IOC when bidding for the Winter Olympic Games and they fully understand it. It is indeed rare that special legislation is needed to solve the problems of the Winter Olympic Games, and there may be fewer legislative projects that only serve the Winter Olympic Games (neither including other purposes nor involving post competition matters). For the Beijing Winter Olympic Games, most of the laws and regulations formulated in preparation for the Beijing Olympic Games are of great significance for reference. As far as Beijing Winter Olympics legislation is concerned, relevant experts have long pointed out that innovative projects will not spring up, will not be dazzling and will not blossom everywhere. In view of the fact that Beijing had very mature legislative experience at the 2008 Olympic Games and left a very rich legislative heritage, relying on or counting on new legislation to solve the problems of the Beijing Winter Olympic Games is not the most operational idea. China's existing laws and regulations are sufficient to support the preparation and holding of the Winter Olympic Games. Even if a certain legislation of the Beijing Winter Olympic Games is launched, it should not only focus on the more than ten days of the Winter Olympic Games, but should make good provision design and other arrangements for the continued implementation after the closing, combine the protection of the Winter Olympic Games with the actual needs of the country and the reform, construction and development of Beijing, Tianjin and Hebei, and leave valuable institutional wealth for scientific development and long-term development. In the local legislative work of the Winter Olympic Games, we should learn from each other, but there is no need to copy, keep up, and force the same or equal. If necessary, relevant local legal work organs shall increase consultation and active coordination. (outlook new era)
