THE 19th Communist Party of China Central Committee issued a communique at the end of its three-day third plenary session, which concluded yesterday.

Deeper reform of Party and state institutions is a profound evolution in modernizing China’s system and capacity for governance, it said.

Party and state institutions form an important part of the socialist system with Chinese characteristics and a significant guarantee for Party’s governance, it noted.

Led by the CPC, China established socialism as its basic system and gradually created the system for the function of Party and state institutions with Chinese characteristics after the founding of the People’s Republic of China in 1949, it read.

During the process of socialist construction and reform and opening up, the Party actively advanced the reform of Party and state institutions and gradually optimized and standardized their functions, it said.
