Chinese legislators will review draft amendments to the Legislation Law at the upcoming annual full session of the country's top legislature, a spokeswoman said Wednesday.

Fu Ying, a spokeswoman for the Third Session of the 12th National People's Congress (NPC), made the remarks at a press conference.

It is the first time that draft revisions to this law, which regulates the process of creating national laws, government regulations and local laws and defines legislative powers in the country, are discussed by NPC deputies at a full session of the national legislative body.

The annual parliamentary session is to open Thursday morning.
