Last updated: January 12, 2021
- This page is based on the 13th NPC Standing Committee’s five-year legislative plan (“Five-Year Plan”) and its special public health legislative plan (“Special Plan”).
- Three types of legislative projects are listed in the tables below:
- all numbered projects in the two Plans: Categories I and II projects in the Five-Year Plan, and Category I projects in the Special Plan;
- any Category III project in the Five-Year Plan that has been submitted for review; and
- any other bill that the 13th NPC or its Standing Committee passed after two or more reviews (i.e., “unlisted projects”).
- All legislative projects are organized into two groups: “new laws” and “amendments & revisions.” Within each group, Category I, Category II, Category III, and unlisted projects form separate subgroups. Category I projects in the two Plans are not listed separately, but are given separate notations.
- Within each subgroup, completed projects (▲) are listed first, followed by pending projects (▲) and then projects that have yet to be submitted for deliberation. Projects on which the State Council has solicited public comments are each marked with a blue triangle (▲).
- We have created a bill page for each completed and pending project, and will do so for other projects in due course. On the bill pages, votes are listed in the order of yea – abstention – nay.
