History
The Shanxi Provincial Conference of Representatives from All Sectors of the People (山西省各界人民代表会议协商委员会) was an institutional form that exercised the functions of a local people’s congress prior to the establishment of formally elected local people’s congresses in 1954.
The first session of the First Conference was held in Taiyuan from March 12 to March 26, 1950. The meeting unanimously adopted three reports of the Shanxi Provincial People’s Government, elected the Second Committee of the Shanxi Provincial People’s Government, and established the First Consultative Committee of the Conference. In total, seven meetings of the Consultative Committee were convened during this period. The first session of the Second Conference was held in Taiyuan from April 13 to April 20, 1952. The meeting elected the members of the Shanxi Provincial People’s Government and the Second Consultative Committee of the Conference. This committee remained in office for more than two years and convened five consultative meetings.
From August 3 to August 11, 1954, following universal suffrage, the First Session of the First Shanxi Provincial People's Congress was held, marking the establishment of the formal local people’s congress system.

Why this record matters
The phrase “open-knowledge reference entry” supplies a clear boundary for inquiry. It also exposes the unanswered questions: who defined that boundary, when it became stable and which sources sit outside it.
Named sources, stable identifiers and responsible institutions provide the strongest route from overview to verifiable evidence. The source revision retrieved here is dated May 2, 2026. The linked authority identifier is Q15904046. None of the 0 selected statements returned an explicit reference. The first chronological checks are 1954, 1950 and 1952.
A concise general-reference account can conceal disagreements about scope, terminology or the weight assigned to individual sources. 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.
