targeted.
We provided advice and suggestions on the formulation and
implementation of the 14th Five-Year Plan. During the formulation process, we

organized 35 deliberations in the form of Standing Committee meetings,
videoconferences, and meetings to assess developments. After the Fifth

Plenary Session of the 19th CPC Central Committee, we convened Standing
Committee meetings in a timely manner to study the recommendations for the
14th Five-Year Plan and continued to offer comments and suggestions on its

implementation.
We also offered advice on how to secure a decisive victory in the battle

against poverty. We organized 71 inspections and research tours, all focused
on consolidating and building on the achievements in poverty alleviation so as

to promote rural revitalization, and on improving medical and healthcare
services in rural areas.

We carried out duties with regard to coordinating Covid-19 response with
economic and social development. Through our work platform, we conducted
surveys among all National Committee members in the form of questionnaires

to seek their views on how to improve the mechanisms for responding to major
epidemics, the public health services system, and the emergency response

system. We also gave full play to the role of consultative seminars as well as
channels for handling proposals and reporting on social conditions and public

sentiment. On this basis, we submitted over 3,500 reports, opinions, and
suggestions for the consideration of the CPC Central Committee when making

decisions and advancing their implementation.
3. Improving the quality of consultation to better fulfill the CPPCC’s role as a
specialized consultative institution

We worked continuously to diversify the forms of consultation, improve
consultation procedures, and increase our capacity for consultation. We put in

place an improved structure of consultation and deliberation in which plenary
sessions of the National Committee play the leading role, subject-specific

meetings of the Standing Committee and special consultative meetings play an
important part, and consultative seminars are part of regular procedures.
