culture

The full National People's Congress (全国人大) only meets once a year, so its Standing Committee acts as the working legislature year-round — drafting laws, interpreting the constitution, and approving treaties.

usage

Almost always shortened in news and speech to 全国人大常委会 (Quánguó Réndà Chángwěihuì). The full form appears mainly in formal documents.
