On Meritorious Service of the Unite in Unit Crimes

The 1997 Criminal Law has stipulated that the unit can be subject of the crime as the individual but it does not specify the problem concerning the penalty measure,like the measurement of meritorious service of the unit and its influence on the shouldering of responsibility.The meritorious service of the unit is always compared with the voluntary surrender of the unit,or the meritorious service of the individual.However,the previous studies do not provide adequate answers to the following four questions,first,whether special provision concerning meritorious service is needed.Second,whether is it possible to have meritorious service in the practice.Third,how to the responsibility of the unit which has performed meritorious service.Fourth,how to distinguish the meritorious service performed by the unit from that performed by the individual.
