The Credentials Committee of the Standing Committee of the National People's Congress is a commission of the Standing Committee of the National People's Congress (NPCSC), the permanent body of China's top legislature.
History
The National People's Congress established a Credentials Committee in 1954. As the Committee was a temporary institution, it was unable to review the qualifications of representatives in time, leading to the establishment of the permanent Credentials Committee of the NPCSC in March 1983.[1]
Functions
The committee examines the qualifications of deputies elected to the National People's Congress.[2] The Deputies Affairs Commission is responsible for the specific work of the Credentials Committee.[3]
Structure
The committee has its own general office.[2]
