BEIJING -- A total of 13,718 people have submitted 114,574 pieces of opinions on the draft civil code to China's national legislature, an official with the Standing Committee of the National People's Congress (NPC) said Wednesday.
The opinions were collected from Dec. 28, 2019 to Jan. 26 via the NPC website or by mail.
The opinions include clarifying the identification criterion for members of rural collective economic organizations, clarifying the ownership of garages and parking spaces in residential communities and improving the system of the right of habitation, according to Yue Zhongming, spokesperson for the Legislative Affairs Commission of the NPC Standing Committee.
