More Grass-Root Delegates
Share

The Communist Party of China (CPC) will include more delegates from the grass-roots level, including migrant workers, at the Party's 18th National Congress slated for 2012.

The minimum proportion of grass-roots delegates attending the event will be 32 percent, 2 percentage points higher than at the previous congress in 2007, said a statement released by the Organization Department of the CPC Central Committee on November 2.

The maximum proportion of leaders and cadres will be 68 percent. Worker delegates must take up 10 percent of the total delegates and they should be made up of those from public and private enterprises in industrial and service sectors, the statement said.

Among the worker delegates, migrant workers will take a proper proportion, according to the statement.

The 18th CPC National Congress will be held in Beijing in the second half of 2012. The congress typically convenes once every five years.
