History
On September 1, 1965, the first session of the first People's Congress of the Tibet Autonomous Region was held, and the Tibet Autonomous Region was formally established. According to the Constitution and Local Organization Law at that time, there was no permanent organ of the People's Congress of the first-level administrative region.[2] In July 1979, the Second Session of the Fifth National People's Congress adopted the "Resolution on Amending Certain Provisions of the Constitution of the People's Republic of China". On August 14, 1979, the Second Session of the Third People's Congress of the Tibet Autonomous Region elected the Standing Committee of the Autonomous Region People's Congress, which was the first provincial-level administrative region standing committee established by the People's Republic of China.[3][4]
