labor - No vote on labor law

The Standing Committee of the National People's Congress has decided yesterday not to vote on the controversal draft labor law, the China Daily reports. They have been discussing a second, amended draft after a first draft was submitted last December.
Xin Chunying, deputy director of NPC's Law Committee, yesterday said members agree that it is urgent to have a contract law to protect workers' rights as it is a matter of public interest and social stability.
