Official data showed China's economy expanded 6.9 percent year-on-year in 2017, marking the first acceleration in the annual growth pace in seven years and well above the official target of around 6.5 percent.

In the past year, China has delivered improved economic growth, fiscal revenues, corporate profits as well as new growth momentum, which laid a good foundation for future development, Li said.

He said authorities must have a sense of urgency to ensure a good start to the year.

The draft version of the government work report, which will be delivered at the National People's Congress in March, will be distributed to government departments and local governments to solicit opinion, according to a decision made on Monday's meeting.
