Top legislature prioritizes constitutional enforcement among tasks

Ensuring the full enforcement of the Constitution will be one of the main tasks of the top legislature this year, according to a draft work report unveiled on Monday.
"Remaining committed to upholding law-based governance in Hong Kong and Macao, we will work to safeguard constitutional order in the two special administrative regions as stipulated in China's Constitution and the basic laws, refine the system for interpreting the basic laws by the NPC Standing Committee, and establish a sound legal system and effective enforcement mechanisms at the national level for safeguarding national security in the two regions," said the draft annual work report of the Standing Committee of the National People's Congress.
"We will maintain our principles and policies on work related to Taiwan, uphold the one-China principle, resolutely oppose and restrict separatist forces seeking 'Taiwan independence', and promote the peaceful development of cross-Straits relations on the basis of the 1992 Consensus," it said.
Other works to be done in this sector include: to better interpret the Constitution, to make progress in constitutional compliance inspection, and to promote public awareness of the Constitution.
