The Regulation System for the Use of Natural Resources

This system regulates the use of all natural resources within the territorial space for the purposes of daily life, work and eco-environmental conservation. Whoever owns them must develop the natural resources in line with relevant rules, and cannot change the purpose arbitrarily.

The 18th CPC Central Committee, at its third plenary session in 2013, decided to improve this system. The Regulations on the Use of the Natural Ecological Space, issued by the Ministry of Land and Resources in March 2017, set requirements regarding use control, conservation, restoration, implementation, monitoring and assessment in line with the principles of prioritizing the eco-environment, regional coordination, classification of natural resources, and concerted efforts of all sectors. 

This regulation system is an important component of the system of institutions for building an eco-civilization. It is an institutional structure for promoting green development.

自然資源用途管制制度

自然資源用途管制制度，即國家對國土空間內的自然資源按照生活空間、生產空間、生態(tài)空間等用途或功能進行監(jiān)管，表明一定國土空間里自然資源無論所有者是誰，都要按照用途管制規(guī)則進行開發(fā)，不能隨意改變用途。

2013年11月，中共十八屆三中全會通過《中共中央關于全面深化改革若干重大問題的決定》，提出要健全自然資源用途管制制度。2017年3月，國土資源部印發(fā)《自然生態(tài)空間用途管制辦法（試行）》，堅持生態(tài)優(yōu)先、區(qū)域統(tǒng)籌、分級分類、協(xié)同共治的原則，在自然生態(tài)空間用途管控、維護修復、實施保障、監(jiān)測評估等方面作出要求。自然資源用途管制制度是中國生態(tài)文明制度體系的重要組成部分，是促進綠色發(fā)展的一項重要制度安排。
