八、健全全过程人民民主制度体系

VIII. Advancing Whole-Process People’s Democracy

发展全过程人民民主是中国式现代化的本质要求。必须坚定不移走中国特色社会主义政治发展道路，坚持和完善我国根本政治制度、基本政治制度、重要政治制度，丰富各层级民主形式，把人民当家作主具体、现实体现到国家政治生活和社会生活各方面。

Developing whole-process people’s democracy is integral to Chinese modernization. We must firmly stay on the path of socialist political advancement with Chinese characteristics and uphold and improve our country’s foundational, basic, and important political systems. We will develop diverse forms of democracy at all levels and ensure that the principle of the people running the country is manifested in concrete and visible ways in all aspects of China’s political and social activities.

（29）加强人民当家作主制度建设。坚持好、完善好、运行好人民代表大会制度。健全人大对行政机关、监察机关、审判机关、检察机关监督制度，完善监督法及其实施机制，强化人大预算决算审查监督和国有资产管理、政府债务管理监督。健全人大议事规则和论证、评估、评议、听证制度。丰富人大代表联系人民群众的内容和形式。健全吸纳民意、汇集民智工作机制。发挥工会、共青团、妇联等群团组织联系服务群众的桥梁纽带作用。

(29) Strengthening the institutions through which the people run the country

We must uphold, improve, and implement the system of people’s congresses to good effect. We will improve the systems under which the people’s congresses conduct oversight of the administrative, supervisory, adjudicatory, and procuratorial organs, refine the Law on the Oversight by the Standing Committees of People’s Congresses at All Levels and the mechanisms for its implementation, and strengthen the examination and oversight of government budgets and final accounts by people’s congresses as well as their oversight of state-owned asset and government debt management. We will improve the rules of procedure for people’s congresses and their debate, assessment, discussion, and hearing systems. We will see that deputies to people’s congresses reach out to the public on a greater variety of issues and in more diverse ways and enhance the working mechanisms for drawing on public opinion and pooling the wisdom of the people. The roles of people’s organizations, such as trade unions, Chinese Communist Youth League organizations, and women’s federations, will be brought into play in connecting with and serving the people.
