Major Progress in NPC's Supervisory Work: Li Peng

The 9th NPC Standing Committee has attached equal importance to both supervisory and legislative work and made much progress, said Li Peng, chairman of the 9th NPC Standing Committee, in Beijing Monday.

"Over the past five years," he said in his report on the work of the 9th NPC Standing Committee to the ongoing first session of the 10th NPC Monday morning, "the NPC Standing Committee has checked the enforcement of 22 laws and legal decisions, and heard and deliberated 40 special work reports by the State Council, the Supreme People's Court and the Supreme People's Procuratorate."

Checking up on law enforcement and hearing and deliberating work reports of the State Council and the Supreme Court and procuratorate are the two basic ways for the NPC Standing Committee to exercise supervision, Li noted.

The check up on the enforcement of the agriculture law and the criminal procedure law have helped promote the development of agriculture and rural economy and discovered a number of common problems and typical cases, he added.

Apart from hearing and deliberating the central government's budget and audit reports and the State reports on plans at the annual NPC full sessions, the 9th NPC Standing Committee also heard and deliberated a number of additional reports submitted by the State Council concerning the country's reform, opening up and economic development, said Li.

The Standing Committee has also intensified efforts to monitor the central government's budget implementation and economic work, and make regular analysis of the country's economic situation, he added.

The NPC Standing Committee has always focused its supervisory work on major issues relating to reform, development and stability, as well as issues of great public concern, said Li.

The NPC Standing Committee has also made its supervisory activities part of its efforts to improve the existing laws, he said.
