Source-derived summary

The Central Institutional Organization Commission, sometimes synonymous with the State Commission for Public Sector Reform, is an agency of the Central Committee of the Chinese Communist Party with full jurisdiction also over the State Council of China as well as lower and local government bodies. It is led by the Premier of the State Council and closely tied to the Organization Department of the Chinese Communist Party.

History

During its history, the Commission changed name several times between the establishment of the People's Republic of China and the adoption of its current name and functions in 1991.

Functions

The commission oversees institutional reforms and staffing structures of the CCP Center and the State Council. The commission's functions include making policy on administrative reform, central reorganization plans, personnel establishment, quotas, wages, and administrative regulations for State institutions. Its authority was enhanced after the Ministry of Personnel was abolished. There is also the State Commission Office for Public Sector Reform, which serves as its executive organ.

Editorial analysis

Why this record matters

“Central Institutional Organization Commission” is worth following because a concise public description often conceals a longer documentary argument. Here, Central, Institutional and Organization provides the most credible route into that argument.

Evidence profile

Named sources, stable identifiers and responsible institutions provide the strongest route from overview to verifiable evidence. The source revision retrieved here is dated Aug 8, 2026. The linked authority identifier is Q11022626. 1 of 1 selected statements include explicit references; 0 carry qualifiers and 0 use preferred rank. The first chronological checks are 1991.

Critical limits

The absence of detail may reflect summary conventions rather than a lack of surviving documentation. The lead is largely declarative, so disagreement and counter-evidence require a deliberate search beyond the opening account. Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.
