社会司法鉴定机构建设应坚持“公益性为主”原则

社会司法鉴定机构是为三类诉讼活动提供鉴定服务的公益性组织。准确把握其性质，有利于顺利进行司法鉴定体制改革，有重点地做好鉴定管理工作。目前，相当多的鉴定管理部门将社会司法鉴定机构定位为商业性服务机构，并按等价交换原则收取鉴定费用。这种做法是与司法鉴定活动的性质、鉴定结论的证据要求以及确保司法公正相矛盾的。根据我国现行法律和执法环境条件，并借鉴外国立法经验，社会司法鉴定机构建设应当坚持“公益性为主，盈利性为补充”的原则，并在机构结构与布局、鉴定收费、国家重点扶持等方面予以调整。

The Set-up of Non-governmental Judicial Expertise Units should be Based on the Interests of Public Welfare

The non-governmental judicial expertise units are public organizations that provide identification services for three certain litigant activities. To precisely understand the nature of these units can not only benefit the reform of judicial expertise system but also run a better administration on judicial identification.At present,many administrative units treat non-governmental judicial expertise units as commercial service organizations and agree them to charge a fee based on the equal-value exchange principle,which is inconsistent with the nature and the evidence-demanding principle of judicial identification.It is also incompatible with the legal justice.With reference to the current judicial situation in China and the legislation experience from abroad,the set-up of non-governmental judicial expertise units should primarily be public-welfare-oriented and secondarily profitable.In the meanwhile,the structure and charges of judicial expertise units should be properly adjusted.
