Delegations deliberate over nominees for central leadership

Delegations to the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China began to deliberate on Sunday over a proposed name list of nominees for candidacy for the members and alternate members of the 18th CPC Central Committee and members of the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection.

The list was submitted to the 38 delegations for consideration by the presidium of the 18th CPC National Congress.

Xi Jinping, secretary-general of the congress, briefed the presidium on the list on Saturday at the presidium's second meeting, at which it decided to submit the list to the delegations.
