BEIJING, Oct. 29 -- The Third Plenary Session of the 18th Communist Party of China (CPC) Central Committee will be held between Nov. 9 and 12 in Beijing, according to a CPC Central Committee Political Bureau statement on Tuesday.
The announcement was made after political bureau members held a meeting presided over by Xi Jinping, general secretary of the CPC Central Committee, to study how to "comprehensively deepen reforms."
During the meeting, they listened to a report about opinions solicited within and outside the Party on a draft decision of the CPC Central Committee on major issues concerning comprehensively deepening reforms.
The draft decision will be submitted for review at the third session.
Reform and opening-up is a "great revolution" by the Chinese people under the CPC's leadership in the new era. Deepening reforms requires the improvement and development of socialism with Chinese characteristics, according to the statement.
The CPC's leadership must be strengthened and improved, giving full play to the Party's core role that exercises overall leadership and coordinates all efforts to ensure the success of the reforms, the statement said.
