Following extensive public consultation, the draft outline of the 15th Five-Year Plan (2026-2030) for national economic and social development will be submitted to the upcoming session of the National People's Congress (NPC) for review, approval and subsequent implementation, a spokesperson for the session said on Wednesday.

Lou Qinjian, spokesperson for the fourth session of the 14th NPC, made the remarks when briefing the press on the NPC session scheduled to run from March 5 to 12.

Responding to a question from China Media Group, Lou stated that this process will turn the Party's propositions into national will and a joint action of the people through legal procedures.

The session will also review the draft law on national development planning, which aims to codify proven practices into law, thereby better leveraging the strategic guiding role of national development plans, the spokesperson added.
