The Standing Committee of the Ninth National People's Congress (NPC) had fulfilled its legislative and supervisory obligations under the Constitution in the past five years, top legislator Li Peng said here Saturday as the legislature approached the end of its term in March.

At the conclusion of the 31st session of the NPC Standing Committee, Li said, "In the past five years, the progress in various aspects of Standing Committee work has helped strengthen the democratic construction of the socialist legal system, promote the drive toward rule of law and guarantee the course of building socialism with Chinese characteristics."

Thanks to the unremitting efforts, a range of laws had been drawn up and a legal framework governing all aspects of political, social and economic life put in place.

Laws promulgated by the NPC and its Standing Committee, together with the administrative regulations issued by the State Council and laws by local People's Congresses, constituted the socialist legal system with Chinese characteristics with the Constitution as its core, he said.

The NPC Standing Committee considered supervision and legislation equally important, with its supervisory work focused on issues crucial to reform, development and stability, and publicconcerns, Li said.

Before its term ended in less than three months, the Ninth NPC Standing Committee would continue working conscientiously to fulfill its obligations under the Constitution and law, and make preparations for the first plenum of the 10th NPC, Li said.
