North Korea will hold a major parliamentary meeting later this month.

The North’s Korean Central News Agency(KCNA) said Thursday that the Presidium of the Supreme People’s Assembly(SPA) will convene the fourth session of the 13th assembly on June 29.

During the event, the North Korean authorities are expected to reorganize major governing bodies, including the National Defense Commission(NDC), and carry out a reshuffle of major posts at the foreign ministry and other government agencies. 

The session is also likely to lay the administrative groundwork necessary for a five-year economic development plan.

So far, the North has customarily convened an SPA session to approve the changes in government policies. SPA is largely considered as a rubber-stamp organization for the North Korean dictatorship. 

North Korean leader Kim Jong-un, who was named the first secretary of the North’s ruling Workers’ Party on April 11 2012, convened a SPA session two days later, where he assumed a newly-created post of the first chairman of the NDC. 

North Korean watchers speculate that this title could be changed during the upcoming session in an effort to lend further support to his one-man leadership.
