Thus, the Standing Committee made positive contributions to strengthening socialist democracy and the socialist rule of law, finishing building a moderately prosperous society in all respects, and realizing the Chinese Dream of the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation.

一、统筹部署十二届全国人大常委会工作

1. We made comprehensive arrangements for the Standing Committee of the Twelfth NPC.

党的十八大对新的时代条件下坚持和发展中国特色社会主义作出全面部署。党的十八大以来，以习近平同志为总书记的党中央，围绕改革发展稳定、内政外交国防、治党治国治军，提出许多新思想新观点新论断新要求，为党和国家事业进一步发展指明了方向。十二届全国人大常委会紧紧围绕党和国家工作大局，在深刻分析人大工作新形势新任务的基础上，提出了本届常委会工作的总体思路、基本要求和主要任务，努力为全面深化改革、促进社会主义民主法治建设提供有力保障。

The Eighteenth National Party Congress drew up a comprehensive plan for adhering to and developing socialism with Chinese characteristics under the new conditions of the times. The Party Central Committee with Comrade Xi Jinping as General Secretary has charted the course for making progress in the Party and country’s cause since the conclusion of the congress by putting forward many new ideas, viewpoints, judgments and requirements centered on reform, development and stability; on domestic affairs, foreign relations and national defense; and on running the Party, country and armed forces. Bearing the overall work of the Party and country firmly in mind, the Standing Committee of the Twelfth NPC set forth the general thinking, basic requirements and main tasks for its work on the basis of a thorough analysis of the new circumstances and tasks of the NPC’s work, and provided powerful guarantees for comprehensively deepening reform and promoting the development of socialist democracy and the socialist rule of law.

We upheld the people’s principal position in the country; made people’s democracy more widespread, granted it more fully, and developed it further; and supported and ensured the exercise of state power by the people through people’s congresses. We unwaveringly adhered to the system of people’s congresses and developed it as required by the times, constantly enriched its practicality and suitability to the times, and got the system of people’s congresses to fully play its role as China’s fundamental political system.

The NPC and its Standing Committee stays in the forefront of developing socialist democracy and the socialist rule of law, and shoulders important responsibility in the course of comprehensively promoting law-based governance. Therefore, we should view steadfastly running the country in accordance with the law and safeguarding the authority of the Constitution and laws as important tasks of the NPC and its Standing Committee.

–We drew up a legislative plan and developed and improved the socialist system of laws with Chinese characteristics. Legislation is a prerequisite and foundation for the rule of law. We drew up a legislative plan for the Standing Committee of the Twelfth NPC based on a comprehensive analysis of the new circumstances and requirements for our legislative work after the establishment of the socialist system of laws with Chinese characteristics, and on a careful review of bills and proposals put forward by NPC deputies, in-depth investigations and studies, and repeated discussions and consultations. In addition, we promptly held a meeting on legislative work to determine the targets, tasks and requirements of the legislative work for the current term and the steps for fulfilling them. We stressed the need to be guided by the theoretical system of socialism with Chinese characteristics, proceed from China’s conditions and realities, put people first, pass legislation for the benefit of the people, and further the implementation of the Constitution through well-developed laws. We also stressed the need to make laws scientifically and democratically, and constantly improve the socialist system of laws with Chinese characteristics.
