Lawmakers’ thousands of proposals receive responses

In a significant development for China’s legislative framework, all 9,160 proposals submitted by national lawmakers earlier this year have been fully addressed, as announced at a recent work conference in Beijing. These suggestions were put forward by deputies during the third session of the 14th National People’s Congress (NPC), China’s highest legislative body, held in March. Following a thorough review, the proposals were distributed to 211 organizations for implementation, with all actions completed on schedule and feedback provided to the respective deputies. The top areas of focus included ‘science, education, health, and sports,’ ‘development planning and comprehensive economy-related matters,’ and ‘social and public affairs,’ which collectively accounted for nearly half of all suggestions. This achievement underscores the efficiency and responsiveness of China’s legislative process in addressing critical national issues.
