NBS Solicits Public Opinion on Statistics Law Amendment

China's National Bureau of Statistics (NBS) issued a public notice Thursday calling for opinions about the revision of China's Statistics Law.

The move was made to respond to a national overhaul by China's legislature, the Standing Committee of the National People's Congress, of the enforcement of the Statistics Law enacted in 1983.

Statisticians and people from all walks of life are encouraged to join the discussion aiming to modify the country's statistics law in line with both the domestic reality and international practices.

The notice said that people can either e-mail the mailbox: pengyt@stats.gov.cn, or write to Peng Yongtao, director of the Policy and Regulation Department of the NBS.

Besides, a special discussion column will be opened at the China Information Daily.

Prizes will be awarded to those who have contributed valuable proposals and suggestions, according to the notice.

China's Statistics Law was first amended in 1996, after NBS director general Li Deshui criticized local authorities for inflating their gross domestic product growth. Since then the accuracy and validity of official statistics have become a hot topic across China and aroused a new round of law enforcement overhaul.
