Later this year, China's top legislature will review an anti-corruption report for the first time after a similar report was deliberated 24 years ago, according to the 2013 work plan issued Friday.

The review is also included in the work report of the 11th National People's Congress (NPC) Standing Committee, which was delivered last month by Wu Bangguo, the country's top legislator until he retired last month amid the leadership transition, at the annual parliamentary session.

Prosecutor-general Cao Jianming told media in March that the anti-corruption report will be examined in October, which shows that the parliament will attach great importance to the fight against job-related crimes and address public concern.

In 1989, the top legislature read a similar report on anti-corruption situation then, which was submitted by the Supreme People's Procuratorate.

The Chairmen's Council of the NPC Standing Committee adopted this year's legislative and supervisory plans last week.
