In practice, its role and powers are somewhat analogous to an advisory legislative upper house and there have been occasional proposals to formalise this role in the PRC Constitution. The Communist Party of China and the aligned "democratic parties" participate in the CPPCC. Besides political parties, CPPCC also invites of representatives from various sectors of society. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chinese_People's_Political_Consultative_Conference https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chinese_People's_Political_C...
