Chinese authorities provided updates on last year's legislative and political advisory proposals during a high-level press briefing at the State Council Information Office on February 27, 2026. Senior officials from four major ministries detailed implementation progress of recommendations raised during 2025's National People's Congress (NPC) and Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference (CPPCC) sessions.
Pan Xiaodong, Secretary General of the Ministry of Science and Technology, emphasized technological innovation as a core driver of recent policy developments. 'We've operationalized 78% of tech-related proposals through our national R&D programs,' he stated, highlighting advancements in artificial intelligence and quantum computing infrastructure.
Cross-Ministry Coordination
The Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Affairs reported completing 92% of rural revitalization proposals under Director General Tao Huaiying's leadership, including new grain security mechanisms and livestock disease prevention systems. Commerce Vice Minister Yan Dong revealed a 15% year-on-year increase in cross-border e-commerce volumes following trade facilitation proposals.
Market Regulation Advances
State Administration for Market Regulation Vice Minister Deng Zhiyong announced standardized quality control frameworks now covering 85% of consumer goods categories. 'Our updated anti-monopoly guidelines directly respond to last year's market reform suggestions,' Deng noted during the Q&A session.
Officials confirmed remaining proposals are undergoing feasibility assessments, with implementation timelines to be published before the 2026 NPC session. The coordinated response demonstrates China's structured approach to translating public representatives' input into actionable policies.
