Judicial system should enforce the Constitution

Improving the judicial system according to the rule of law should include better enforcement of the Constitution, access by lawyers to judge and prosecutor posts, and independent handling of disputes, judicial experts said on Thursday.

"The life and energy of the Constitution should be embodied in its implementation, and its enforcement also represents its authority and power," said Ying Songnian, professor of law with the China University of Political Science and Law.

"Therefore, the first step to fulfill the rule of law lies in developing work in accordance with the Constitution. Upholding the Constitution is also the premise of respecting and protecting human rights."
