The director of the National Supervisory Commission is the head of the National Supervisory Commission, the highest state supervisory agency of China.

Under the current constitution, the director is appointed by and serves at the pleasure of the National People's Congress (NPC), the legislature. The incumbent procurator-general is Liu Jinguo, who took office on 11 March 2023.

History

The National Supervisory Commission was established in March 2018. Yang Xiaodu served as the first director.^[1]

Selection

According to the Organic Law of the National People's Congress (NPC), constitutionally China's highest organ of state power, the director is nominated by the NPC Presidium, the Congress's executive organ.^[2] However, the nomination is effectively made by the Chinese Communist Party, with the decisions being made among Party leaders.^[3] Although the Presidium could theoretically nominate multiple candidates for the director, leading the election to be competitive, it has always nominated a single candidate for the office.^[3]

After the nomination, the director is elected by the NPC, which also has the power to remove him and other state officers from their office. Elections and removals are decided by majority vote only in a NPC plenary session.^[4] The length of the director's term of office is the same as the NPC, which is five years, and the prosecutor general is restricted to two consecutive terms of office.^[4] The director is required to recite the constitutional oath of office before assuming office.^[3]
