A decision of the Ninth Congress of the Workers' Party of Korea "On the Revision of the Rules of the Workers' Party of Korea" was adopted on February 22.
The decision is as follows:
The Ninth Congress of the Workers' Party of Korea deliberated on the Rules of the WPK which were revised to reflect the practical issues arising in further improving the features and leadership ability peculiar to our Party and putting the Party work and activities on a more regular and standardized basis.
Stipulated in the Rules of the WPK are the contents that the political, organizational, ideological, discipline and work-style building is held fast to as the permanent Party-building line, reflecting the consistent stand and will of the WPK to usher in a golden age of strengthening the whole Party with the five-point Party-building line in the new era as its ideo-theoretical guidelines.
The revised rules also clearly define the authority and work system of the central leadership bodies of the Party on the principle of thoroughly establishing the unified leadership system of the Party Central Committee over the Party building and activities as a whole and strengthening the centralist discipline.
Some contents of chapters and provisions in the Rules were revised in the direction of innovatively improving the Party work, including the consolidation of the Party ranks in a qualitative way and reinforcement of institutional mechanisms to maintain the scientific accuracy and impartiality in applying the Party discipline.
The current Congress decides to adopt the revised and supplemented Party rules as the Rules of the WPK, considering that they will play an important role in successfully fulfilling the fighting programme set forth at the Ninth Congress of the Party by helping further consolidate the organizational and ideological foundations of our Party and thoroughly ensuring its invincible leadership ability in a standardized way.
