行政诉讼不适用调解,但《行政诉讼法》并没有禁止行政诉讼和解。行政裁量是行政诉讼和解的规范基础。基于实践的需要,可以在不修改《行政诉讼法》前提下,通过法律解释的方法,借用《民事诉讼法》的相关规定以支持行政诉讼和解,并使之成为其合法性的法律依据。 Administrative proceedings do not apply mediation, but “Administrative Procedure Law” does not prohibit reconciliation of administrative proceedings. Administrative discretion is the normative basis of reconciliation of administrative litigation. Based on the needs of practice, we can borrow the relevant provisions of the Civil Procedural Law to support the settlement of administrative litigation and make it the legal basis for its legitimacy, without changing the Administrative Procedure Law.
