中共十七大胜利闭幕不久,十届全国人大常委会第三十次会议便通过了对《律师法》新的修订。因其具有强化律师职业使命及社会责任、新增律师执业权利及职业保护等可喜的进步,笔者在与广大同仁共感欣慰、振奋的同时,作为全国、省、地(市)三级律师协会常务理事会的成员,又清楚地看到了其对律师协会职责的补充、完善。 Shortly after the successful conclusion of the 17th CPC National Congress, the 30th Session of the Tenth NPC Standing Committee passed a new amendment to the Lawyers Law. Due to its gratifying progress in lawyer’s professional mission and social responsibility, the addition of lawyer’s practice rights and professional protection, the author is very pleased and excited by the majority of colleagues. At the same time, as the executive director of the Bar Association of China, the province and the prefecture (city) Members of the council also clearly saw their complement and improvement of the bar association’s duties.
