The members of China's top advisory body, the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference (CPPCC) National Committee, has been active in performing their duties and making proposals on state affairs over the past year, CPPCC National Committee Chairman Jia Qinglin said in Beijing Thursday.
In his report on the work of the committee's Standing Committee, delivered at the Third Session of the 10th CPPCC National Committee that opened in Beijing Thursday, Jia said that the National Committee received 4,478 proposals from its members and participating units over the past year, and transferred 4,263 of them to the relevant departments of the National People's Congress, the top legislature, and the government.
The proposals on promoting the development of the non-state economic sector were taken by the central authorities and were absorbed in a major document of the State Council, or China's cabinet, issued recently for the development of the non-state economy, said Jia.
The outcome of researches done by various special sub-committees for making China's future development plans also became important reference of policy makers, Jia acknowledged.
Jia said the CPPCC has a regular channel to convey important opinions and suggestions to the Communist Party of China (CPC) Central Committee, the State Council and relevant departments.
The CPPCC organized 30 groups of 750 National Committee members who made inspection tours of various localities across the country for study of major issues in economic and social development. The inspection groups then provided 26 study reports to the central authorities as references for policy making, said Jia.
Last year, he said, the CPPCC National Committee also worked hard to promote the unity and cooperation among all political parties, people's organizations and personages from all ethnicities and all walks of life.
