China's top legislature inspects implementation of Statistics Law

GUIYANG - China's top legislature inspected the implementation of the Statistics Law in Northeast China's Heilongjiang province and Southwest China's Guizhou province from Monday to Saturday.
Chen Zhu, vice-chairman of the National People's Congress (NPC) Standing Committee, who headed an inspection team, stressed the importance of statistics in the cause of the Communist Party of China and the country, and called for better implementation of the Statistics Law.
He stressed tackling prominent problems in the work of statistics, ensuring supervision over law enforcement and creating a sound environment for the work of statistics to make it better serve economic and social development.
The tour was part of a round of inspections on Statistics Law implementation in 13 provincial-level regions, which will run until the end of May.
The inspection teams examined the major measures governments at all levels and their departments have taken to carry out reform in the management of statistics, implement the law, and ensure the authenticity and accuracy of statistical data.
The law was enacted in 1983 and revised in 2009. This has been the first nationwide inspection on the Statistics Law implementation since the revision.
