CCTV.com reports (Xinwen Lianbo): The 19th meeting of the Standing Committee of the 14th National Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference concluded in Beijing on the afternoon of November 4. Wang Huning, a member of the Standing Committee of the Political Bureau of the CPC Central Committee and chairman of the CPPCC National Committee, presided over the closing meeting and delivered a speech. He said that the fifth plenary session of the 20th CPC Central Committee's examination of the issue of persistently advancing full and rigorous Party self-governance was a major decision made by the CPC Central Committee with Comrade Xi Jinping at its core, based on its understanding of the historical position of the development of the Party's and the country's undertakings and with an eye to the overall picture of Chinese modernization. The CPPCC must treat the in-depth study and implementation of the spirit of the fifth plenary session of the 20th CPC Central Committee as a major political task, effectively align its thinking and actions with the spirit of General Secretary Xi Jinping's important speech and the plenary session's arrangements, gain a deeper understanding of the decisive significance of the “Two Establishes,” and resolutely uphold the “Two Upholds.” Efforts must be made to study, understand and implement the spirit of the session comprehensively; deeply understand the importance and urgency of persistently advancing full and rigorous Party self-governance; understand the great achievements of full and rigorous Party self-governance in the new era; understand that Xi Jinping's thought on Party building is the fundamental guide for advancing the great new project of Party building in the new era; understand the guiding thought and important principles for persistently advancing full and rigorous Party self-governance; understand its strategic tasks and major measures; and understand that persistently advancing full and rigorous Party self-governance requires fulfilling the political responsibility for managing and governing the Party. The spirit of the plenary session must be consciously used to unify thinking, will and action.

Wang Huning said that the spirit of the fifth plenary session of the 20th CPC Central Committee must be implemented in light of the CPPCC's actual circumstances. It must unswervingly uphold the overall leadership of the Communist Party of China and the centralized, unified leadership of the CPC Central Committee; persist in using Xi Jinping Thought on Socialism with Chinese Characteristics for a New Era to build unity and shape convictions; apply strict standards to building the ranks of CPPCC members and staff of its administrative bodies; and strengthen work conduct in a comprehensive and rigorous manner. Party consciousness, Party conduct and Party discipline must be addressed together, and efforts to improve conduct, enforce discipline and fight corruption must be integrated. An atmosphere of strictness, upright conduct and a spirit of getting things done must be firmly established and sustained over the long term, providing a strong guarantee for the CPPCC to carry out its work on the “four forms of cohesion.” Preparing for the 21st CPC National Congress and studying, publicizing and implementing its spirit must be made the main theme of the CPPCC National Committee's work in 2027, with next year's work carefully planned around the central tasks of the Party and the country.

By vote, the meeting adopted a decision that Comrade Shen Changyu would no longer serve as a standing committee member of the 14th CPPCC National Committee and accepting his resignation as a member; a decision removing Wang Ning from his positions as a standing committee member of the 14th CPPCC National Committee and vice chairperson of its Foreign Affairs Committee and revoking his membership; and a decision revoking the memberships of Zhang Jianming, Yu Yanhong and Wang Tongzhou in the 14th CPPCC National Committee.
