They were also told to display composure in terms of politics, discipline, morality and the resistance to corruption.

Departments and units of the State Council should appreciate the achievements made by the CPC over the past five years, and be fully aware of the historic tasks in hand.

The meeting of the Leading Party Members' Group of the 12th NPC Standing Committee was presided over by Zhang Dejiang, chairman of the NPC Standing Committee.

The meeting underlined the Party's leading position in all aspects and its role of overseeing all work and coordinating all parties, as well as the integration of the Party leadership, the position of the people as masters of the country, and the rule of law.

The NPC should firmly keep their work in the right political direction, and advance the system of the NPC with times, according to the meeting.
