The first session of 10th National Committee of the Chinese
People's Political Consultative Conference (CPPCC) adopted on
Friday a report by the Proposals Sub-Committee on the examination
of proposals received since the opening of the annual session.
By
the afternoon of March 9, according to the report, the annual
session had received a total of 3,668 proposals from 1,936 or 86.47
percent of the CPPCC National Committee members. After examination,
the report said, 3,448 proposals or 94 percent have been put on
record and the remaining 220 have been forwarded to related
departments for study or consultation as letters from CPPCC
members.
Of
the proposals put on record, 1,505 or 43.65 percent concern
economic matters, 966 or 28.02 percent concern the development of
science, education, culture, health and sports, and 977 or 28.33
percent were on political and legal affairs, personnel and the
united front work.
Although the proposals cover a wide range of issues, special
attention was focused on such hot spots as continuing to expand
domestic demand, promoting national economic growth, increasing the
income of farmers and the development of rural economy, improving
the social security system and expanding employment and
re-employment, and paying attention to environmental protection in
the drive for a sustainable development.
The report described the proposals as "high in quality, factual in
analysis and specific in recommendations".
