THE fifth session of the 12th Shanghai Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference (CPPCC) kicked off this morning.
The city's political advisory body will discuss key topics including the city’s building of a global technology and innovation hub, deepening reform of the Shanghai Free Trade Zone, and the overall city's planning by the year 2040, serving its annual consultancy role towards the municipal government.
The session will run through Thursday.
“The CPPCC Shanghai committee will strive to enhance its efficiency to handle proposals from members, and help Shanghai to implement policies to fulfill the task of the city’s 13th Five-Year Plan (2016-20),” Wu Zhiming, the committee’s chairman, said at the opening of the session held in the Shanghai Expo Center today.
Last year, the committee conducted 260 special surveys and held 220 meetings to facilitate implementation of the 13th Five-Year Plan, according to a separate files released during the meeting.
A total of 892 proposals ranging from promoting senior care services to big data strategies were submitted last year, said Cai Wei, the committee’s vice chairman.
Among them, 838 proposals were submitted to relevant government departments, and 652 of them have been solved. The rest are still being handled, he said.
The meeting this year will also select new committee members for the next round of term of service.
The Shanghai People’s Congress (SPC), the city’s legislative body, will hold its opening ceremony of the annual session tomorrow.
The annual conferences of the CPPCC Shanghai committee and the SPC are often referred to as the “Two Sessions.”
