The CCP's Central Military Commission is also elected by the
Central Committee and exercises authority over the military through
the General Political Department of the People's Liberation Army
(PLA). Since 1982 the party Central Military Commission has had a
counterpart organization in the state Central Military Commission
(see The National People's Congress
, this ch.). In fact, the
leadership of both bodies is identical. Nevertheless, because the
party Central Military Commission reports directly to the powerful
Central Committee, it is the authoritative body in matters of
military policy
(see Military Organization
, ch. 14).
