On September 13, 1955, the Twenty-first Session of the Standing Committee of the National People's Congress passed a resolution to establish the Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region, thereby dissolving Xinjiang Province and adopting the administrative territory of the former Xinjiang Province. In 1956, the inaugural People's Congress of the Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region was convened.
In July 1979, the Second Session of the 5th National People's Congress enacted the "Resolution on the Amendment of Certain Provisions of the Constitution of the People's Republic of China", which mandated that "local people's congresses at all levels above the county and the county level shall establish standing committees, which shall serve as the permanent organs of the people's congresses at their respective levels." From August 26, 1979, to September 5, 1979, the Second Session of the Fifth People's Congress of the Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region was held to elect the Standing Committee of the Fifth People's Congress of the Autonomous Region. On September 7, 1979, the inaugural meeting of the Standing Committee was held, during which the establishment of the offices for the Standing Committee of the People's Congress of the Autonomous Region was resolved.
