China's top legislature appointed new justice and labour and social security ministers on Friday.

The Standing Committee of the National People's Congress (NPC) appointed Wu Aiying as Justice Minister, taking over from Zhang Fusen, while Tian Chengping replaced Zheng Silin to become Minister of Labour and Social Security.

Wu, former vice-minister of justice, became the only female minister in the Chinese cabinet after Vice-Premier Wu Yi left the post of Health Minister in April.

Tian was former secretary of the Shanxi provincial committee of the Communist Party of China (CPC).

Both the new ministers - predecessors, Zheng and Zhang, had reached retirement and were relieved of their positions.

Zhang Baoshun, former governor of the Shanxi provincial government, has been appointed to fill Tian's old post of Secretary of the Shanxi Provincial Committee of the CPC.

Also at the 16th meeting of the 10th NPC Standing Committee, which closed on Friday, treaties on criminal judicial assistance with Brazil and Latvia, and an extradition treaty with the Philippines, were approved.

The treaty on criminal judicial assistance between China and Brazil was signed by Chinese Foreign Minister Li Zhaoxing in Beijing in May last year.

The treaty between China and Latvia was signed by Vice-Foreign Minister Dai Bingguo in Beijing in April last year.

The extradition treaty was signed by then Chinese Foreign Minister Tang Jiaxuan in Beijing in 2001.

According to Chinese law, a treaty concerning foreign affairs does not take effect until it secures the approval of the NPC or its Standing Committee.

In another development, a draft of the property law will be made available soon to invite advice from members of the public, the Standing Committee meeting decided on Friday.

The draft will be further amended and resubmitted to the NPC Standing Committee meeting in October and December for further discussion.

If all goes to plan, the final version of the draft law will be submitted to the annual session of the NPC for approval next year.

However, submission of the draft to the annual session next year still depends on approval from the Standing Committee at the end of this year, said Wang Shengming, vice-director of the Commission of Legislative Affairs of the NPC Standing Committee.

"Overseas citizens and enterprises in China will be protected by the law the same as their Chinese counterparts," he told a press conference on Friday after the closure of the Standing Committee meeting.
