十二屆全國人大四次會議共收到議案462件

Lawmakers have filed 462 motions to the secretariat of the fourth session of the 12th National People's Congress (NPC), an official said Sunday.

一名官員上週日表示，在十二屆全國人大四次會議期間，代表共向大會祕書處提交了462件議案

According to Kong Ping, an official with the secretariat, 442 concerned legislation for issues such as the market economy, cultural reform, anti-corruption, environment and law enforcement. The remaining motions were about the NPC supervision and other resolutions.

會議祕書處官員孔平表示，其中442件議案涉及市場經濟、文化改革、反腐、環境以及法律實施等方面的立法問題。其餘議案主要圍繞人大監督及其他議題。

Last year, 522 motions were filed. Since NPC deputies were first tasked with raising motions at the annual session in 1983, the number increased sharply from 61 in that year to a peak of 1,374 in 2004. It has remained around 500 since 2005.

去年，祕書處共收到議案522件。自從全國人大代表在1983年的年度會議上首次負責籌集議案開始，這一數字迅速增長，從當年的61件案例迅速上升到2004年的1374件，這一數字也是歷史最高。自2005年以來，這一數字維持在500件左右。

"The quality of motions this year is fairly good. About 68 percent of them have been informed by surveys, inspections or interviews," Kong said.

孔平稱："本屆大會代表提出的議案總體質量較高，約68%的議案是通過調研、視察或走訪的方式形成的。"

Motions from NPC deputies can be legally binding if they are adopted. The secretariat also received around 8,600 proposals from NPC deputies, which are less formal and will not be legally binding.

如果這些人大代表提出的議案被採納，那麼它們都將會具有法律約束力。大會祕書處還收到了來自人大代表的8600多條代表建議。這些建議相對來說就不那麼正式且不具有法律約束力。

The deadline for submitting motions and suggestions was midnight Friday.

代表提交議案和建議的截止日期是週五凌晨0點。
