Should those who can't find money be rewarded?

Personally, I think it should be rewarded.

The Regulations on the Management of Lost Articles in Guangzhou (Draft for Comment) drafted by Guangzhou Public Security Bureau quietly appeared on the website of "Guangzhou Golden Shield" and the official website of Guangdong Provincial Public Security Bureau on February 10, and will be open to the public for comments 10. Among them, the article 10 (1) states that "individuals who fail to collect money can be rewarded according to 10% of the value of their property", which has aroused widespread concern after being reported and amplified by local media.

Another provision corresponding to the above is that when the owner takes back the lost property, he can voluntarily reward the unit or individual who has not recovered the money according to the amount of 10% of the value of the lost property. If there is no owner, this reward will be paid after the auction.

The spokesperson of the Public Security Management Detachment of Guangzhou Public Security Bureau, who is responsible for issuing the regulation, believes that the regulation actually exists in the Measures for the Administration of Lost Articles in Guangzhou, which was implemented for nearly 30 years and abolished at the end of last year, but it is usually rarely concerned and rarely implemented in practice; This time, we will continue to introduce and strengthen, mainly to strengthen the management of the city's money-collecting items, safeguard the rights and interests of money-collecting people, and commend the excellent quality of money-collecting.

The Regulations also emphasize that anyone who actively, misappropriates, occupies or intentionally damages the lost property, once verified, shall bear corresponding legal responsibilities in addition to returning the original property or compensating for economic losses.

As soon as the "Regulations" were published, it was not clear whether to reward 10% after finding money, which caused widespread controversy.

The finder shall have the right to claim compensation.

In practical work, the finder should first take good care of the articles and call Weibo to find the owner. If they can't be contacted, it will take some time and energy to hand them over to the public security organs, and he should enjoy the right to claim compensation. In reality, taxi drivers are the group with the largest number of passengers, and they have many suggestions. If the law can reward and affirm passengers, it will be very beneficial to both sides.

The law on the payment of property by owners has long been stipulated

"10% Money-Picking Award" is actually the local "detailed rules for implementation" of People's Republic of China (PRC) Property Law. Article 1 12 of the Property Law stipulates: "When the right holder receives the lost property, he shall pay the finder or the relevant department the necessary expenses for keeping the lost property." Obviously, it is legal for the owner to pay the fee to the picker. However, the Property Law does not stipulate the proportion as "10%" as Guangzhou did this time.

In addition, finding valuables and handing them over to the public security organs is also a courageous act, which should be rewarded in addition to honor.

"Paying for money" conforms to the requirements of the development of the times. Under the condition of market economy, people's ideological and moral qualities are uneven, so it is unrealistic to rely entirely on the power of morality or public opinion to maintain the righteous act of finding money. Even developed countries have similar laws. For example, in Germany, discoverers are generally paid 5%. Japan is higher, and the delivery person can get less than 20%.

The reward method can be more perfect. For example, if the value of lost property is 65,438+00%, an upper limit should be set to prevent the reward from becoming invalid. People with special professional convenience, such as security guards, patrolmen, taxi drivers, etc. , should be appropriately reduced their reward ratio; It is stipulated that owners with special difficulties do not need to give 10% as a reward, such as working hard to raise funds for treating diseases, repaying debts and paying tuition fees.

"10% discount" is an insult to morality. If the finder accepts the bonus, the nature will be completely changed.
