North Korea's parliament to convene session to discuss constitutional amendment

The North Korean Supreme People's Assembly (SPA), the reclusive state's rubber-stamp parliament, will convene a new session on October 7 in Pyongyang to discuss matters related to a constitutional amendment, state media reported on Monday.

The last SPA meeting was held in January, and leader Kim Jong Un called for a constitutional amendment that would view South Korea as the "primary foe."

At that time, Kim said he had concluded that unification with the South was no longer possible.

Other issues, such as laws regarding the light industry and product quality supervision, will also be discussed, according to the Korean Central News Agency (KCNA).

The decision for the next meeting was made at Sunday's plenary meeting of the parliament's Standing Committee.

The North's parliament rarely meets and usually serves to approve decisions on issues such as governing structures and budgets created by the state's ruling Workers' Party, members of which form the vast majority of the assembly.
