Fifth, increasing the level of the rule of law in community-level governance. We need to strengthen the community-level institutions for the rule of law; strengthen the competence of community-level rule-of-law workers; establish rule-of-law work mechanisms with the focus of the work and main efforts shifted closer to the community; improve rule-of-law infrastructure and equipment at the community level; and encourage rule-of-law officials to work at the community level.

Sixth, intensifying our efforts to practice law-based, strict governance of the military. (1) The Party’s absolute leadership is at the heart of and fundamental to law-based governance of the armed forces. We need to make innovations in and develop the theory and practice of lawbased governance of the military, build a sound Chinese-style rule-of-law system in the military, and increase the level of the rule of law in the development of national defense and the armed forces. (2) We need to adhere to actively and steadily advancing the reform of national defense and the armed forces on the track of the rule of law, deepen the reform in the leadership, the structure of forces, and the policies and systems of the armed forces, and speed up the improvement and development of the socialist military system with Chinese characteristics. (3) We need to improve the system of military laws and regulations that meet the requirements of modern army building and operations, strictly regulate the authority and procedures for military laws and regulations, and include all military normative documents in the scope of the review. (4) We must intensify the enforcement of military statutes and regulations, clearly define responsibilities for it, improve the system relating to it as well as the mechanisms for ensuring supervision over it, implement a strict accountability system, and drive forward with the law-based governance of the military. (5) We need to improve the legal affairs system within the military and set up sound institutions for this work in leading military bodies. We need to establish a system of legal advisors on military affairs, provide legal advisors for leading military bodies at all levels, and improve the system for legal consultation on major military decisions and operations. We need to reform the system of military discipline inspection and supervision. (6) We need to increase the understanding and mastery of the rule of law among military officers and enlisted personnel. We need to intensify theoretical research on the rule of law in the military.
