China's top advisory body will wrap up its annual full session in Beijing this afternoon after discussing state issues of common concern and a report on the work of the advisory body.

More than 2,100 advisors from across the country have attended the Fifth Session of the 10th National Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference, which opened on March 3.

The CPPCC members have heard and discussed a report on government work by Premier Wen Jiabao, reports on the work of the Supreme People's Court and the Supreme People's Procuratorate, and the drafts of a property right law and corporate income tax law.

The advisors also discussed a work report submitted by the Standing Committee of the CPPCC National Committee, and put forward numerous proposals. The advisors attended three plenary meetings that focused on the economy, social and cultural development, and political construction.

Founded in 1949, the CPPCC National Committee serves as a think tank for the government and for the country's legislative and judicial organs. Delegates include members of the Communist Party of China, non-Communist parties of China and people with no party affiliations.
