China has established a comprehensive socialist legal system that governs all sectors of social life and provides a legal basis for the country's economic and social construction, top legislator Wu Bangguo said Monday.

As of 2010, a total of 236 national laws, more than 690 administrative regulations and more than 8,600 local laws and regulations have been enacted, said Wu, chairman of the Standing Committee of the National People's Congress (NPC).

These laws and regulations formed a multi-tier socialist legal system with Chinese characteristics, a significant achievement in the development of China's socialist legal system, he said at a seminar in Beijing. The transcript of his speech was put online on www.news.cn.

The seminar on the establishment of China's socialist legal system was hosted by the the NPC Standing Committee, and was attended by more than 400 legislators from both top and local legislatures, as well as government officials and scholars.
