NPC enhances supervision

Compared with previous years, more stress was put on the supervisory role of the National People's Congress in the work report delivered by Zhang Dejiang, chairman of the NPC Standing Committee.

Supervisory power is one of the most important functions granted by the Constitution to the country's top legislature, and how to exercise such power not only relates to the implementation of the Constitution and the law, but more importantly determines the vitality of the country's people's congress system.

The NPC Standing Committee has strengthened its supervision over enforcement of the country's laws and introduced more innovations in this regard, signaling a shift in approach to this role.
