Draft amendment to CPPCC charter unveiled for discussion

A draft amendment to the charter of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference, the top political advisory body, was submitted for deliberation on Thursday at the ongoing session of the 13th CPPCC National Committee.

"New content includes the new important thinking, views, judgments and measures proposed at the 19th National Congress of the Communist Party of China," Zhang Qingli, vice-chairman of the CPPCC National Committee, said while briefing political advisers on the revision.

Major decisions and plans concerning the CPPCC's work made by the CPC Central Committee with Xi Jinping at the core since the 18th CPC National Congress, as well as the CPPCC's achievements in theoretical, practical and institutional innovation, are also planned to be added, he said.
