BEIJING, Oct. 19 (Xinhua) -- China has drawn up some new regulations for the 2008 Olympic Games as supplements for the law, Liu Jingmin, executive vice president of the Beijing Organizing Committee for the 2008 Olympic Games, said here Friday.

"The existing legal system meets the requirement of the Games on the whole, so we just draw up some regulations," said Liu on the sidelines of the 17th National Congress of the Communist Party of China (CPC).

"Regulations on Reporting Activities in China by Foreign Journalists during the Beijing Olympic Games and the Preparatory Period" went into effect at the beginning of this year, giving foreign journalists more freedom in reporting in China.

China has also enacted regulations to protect the use of Olympic signs and the intellectual property rights of Olympic products, Liu said.

There are also local regulations in some parts of China, he said.
