It is the permanent body of the commission, and handles its day-to-day administrative operations.

History

In September 2000, the CCP Central Committee decided to establish a Central National Security Leading Group co-located with the Central Foreign Affairs Leading Group, with one organization and two names. Jiang Zemin, General Secretary of the CCP Central Committee, was appointed as the group leader, Qian Qichen, Vice Premier of the State Council, was appointed as the deputy group leader, and Liu Huaqiu, former Director of the State Council Foreign Affairs Office, was appointed as the Director of the Office of the Central Foreign Affairs Leading Group and the Office of the Central National Security Leading Group.
After the establishment of the Central National Security Commission and its Office in 2014, the Central Foreign Affairs Leading Group no longer retained the name of the Central National Security Leading Group. The Office of the Central Foreign Affairs Leading Group also no longer retained the name of the Central National Security Leading Group Office and was renamed the Office of the Central National Security Commission.
