It is necessary to adhere to the concept of systematic concepts, make overall planning and compilation, and comprehensively improve laws, administrative regulations, supervision regulations, and local regulations.

We must strengthen the Party's centralized leadership over legislative work and improve the legislative framework featuring guidance from Party committees, the leading role played by people's congresses, support from the government, and participation by all parties. We should better align decision making for reform and development with legislative decision making, both improving the rule of law through further reform and ensuring reform and innovation in all fields through better rule of law, so as to provide a legal basis for national development and major reforms. We need to advance the rule of law in domestic and foreign affairs in a coordinated manner, balance development and security imperatives, and develop a system of laws for extraterritorial application. We need to use legal means to meet challenges, forestall risks, and safeguard national sovereignty, security, and development interests. Applying Systems Thinking, We Should Enact, Revise, Repel, Interpret, and Codify Laws in a coordinated way and take comprehensive steps to improve the system of laws, administrative regulations, supervisory regulations, and local regulations.

The National People's Congress and its Standing Committee are national legislature.

They should step up legislation in key and emerging sectors and concerning China's international related activities. With a focus on imbuing legislation with core socialist values, they should work to perfect the legal systems that are urgently needed for national governance and are necessary for meeting the People's Growing NEEDS for a Better Life.
