The secretary-general is formally nominated by the Presidium of the NPC during a session and approved by the delegations of the NPC, though in reality is chosen within the ruling Chinese Communist Party (CCP).[1] The chairman, vice chairpersons and the secretary-general of the NPCSC collectively constitute the Council of Chairpersons.[2] The secretary-general oversees the administrative operations of the General Office of the Standing Committee.[3] The post is generally held concurrently by one of the vice chairpersons, and is assisted by one or more deputy secretaries-general.
