农民工讨薪能不能申请法律援助?遭受家庭暴力能不能申请法律援助?哪些人可以申请法律援助?怎样申请法律援助……这一切的疑问现在都能在《重庆市法律援助条例修订草案》中找到答案。
《法制日报》记者近日从重庆市四届人大常委会第六次会议获悉，《重庆市法律援助条例修订草案》首次提请审议，修订草案扩大了法律援助的范围，适当调整了法律援助的经济困难标准，同时进一步补充完善了援助程序，并从制度层面对法律援助案件质量作了相应规定。
此外，修订草案还明确农民工、残疾人、未成年人、老年人、妇女等合法权益遭受侵害时，可以申请法律援助。见义勇为主张民事权利、交通事故、医疗纠纷请求赔偿等也可申请法律援助。
法律援助范围扩大
《重庆市法律援助条例》自2004年9月1日起实施，至今已近十年之久。现行条例曾经在保障公民享受法律服务权利，维护社会公平正义方面发挥了积极作用，但随着经济社会的发展，现行条例已不能适应新形势需要。
修订草案依据法律和有关政策规定，对法律援助范围、经济困难标准、援助程序等进行了调整。
在法律援助范围上，修订草案按照民事(经济困难)、民事(非困难)、刑事(经济困难)、刑事(通知辩护)等四个方面，对法律援助的范围进行了全面系统的规定。

法律援助程序完善

修订草案对法律援助申请人作了补充和完善，明确规定，申请法律援助，由当事人向法律援助机构提出；被羁押的犯罪嫌疑人、被告人、服刑人员和强制隔离戒毒人员申请法律援助的，可以由其法定代理人、近亲属代为申请。
法律援助应该到哪儿去申请呢?
修订草案规定，申请法律援助的事项属于诉讼事项的，向有管辖权的人民法院所在地的法律援助机构提出；属于侦查或者审查起诉阶段刑事案件的，向办理案件的公安机关或者人民检察院所在地的法律援助机构提出。申请法律援助的事项属于非诉讼法律事务的，向有权处理机关所在地、申请人住所地或者所请求人住所地的法律援助机构提出。申请人对法律援助机构无法确定的，可以请求市司法行政部门确定。
修订草案对申请援助的材料也作了规定，规定申请法律援助需要提交法律援助申请表、身份证明、经济困难证明以及其他与申请援助事项有关的案件材料。
修订草案规定，法律援助机构收到法律援助申请后，应当进行审查，并在七个工作日内作出准予或者不予法律援助的决定，并书面通知申请人；申请材料不全或者不符合要求的，应当一次性告知申请人应当补交的材料，对证件、证明材料需要核实的，应当在五个工作日内核实。申请补充材料和法律援助机构核实证件、证明材料的时间不计入审查时限。
