THE BASIC LAW COMMITTEE
- The Basic Law provides that there shall be a Committee on
the Basic Law which the Standing Committee is required to
consult before giving an intrepretation of the Law. The Basic Law Committee cannot bind the Standing Committee of
the NPC, which is the organ under the PRC constitution
charged with interpretation of the Constitution and statues. But there is considerable provision for consultation and
advice.
