BEIJING -- Leading Party members of the top legislature met on Friday to study and discuss plans to implement the guiding principles from the third plenary session of the 20th Communist Party of China (CPC) Central Committee.

The meeting of the leading Party members group of the Standing Committee of the National People's Congress (NPC) was presided over by the group's secretary, Zhao Leji, who is also a member of the Standing Committee of the Political Bureau of the CPC Central Committee and chairman of the NPC Standing Committee.

The Friday meeting said the plenum was a gathering of significant importance, held during a critical period in China's endeavors to build a great country and move toward national rejuvenation on all fronts through Chinese modernization.

The Resolution of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China on Further Deepening Reform Comprehensively to Advance Chinese Modernization, which was adopted at the CPC plenum, sets overall plans and settles key issues concerning future reforms, and will serve as a guiding document for further reforms, the meeting said.

The thorough study and implementation of the plenum's guiding principles will be a major political task for some time to come, the meeting also noted.

National legislators are urged to carefully study the plenum's guiding principles, grasp the essentials, and faithfully implement the legislative and supervisory tasks and measures determined at the plenum.
