我国个人所得税工薪所得减除标准立法听证会于今日上午在北京举行，这是立法法规定听证制度以来全国人大常委会立法中的第一次听证会。请看报道：

The legislative hearing is on the adjustment of personal income tax deduction criterion and is held by the Law Committee of the National People's Congress (NPC), the Commission of Legislative Affairs of the NPC Standing Committee and the NPC Financial and Economic Committee. Since the convention of the legislative hearing was announced on Aug. 28, the NPC Standing Committee has received 4,982 applications for attending the hearing from all over the country.

文中的hearing为“听证会、意见听取会”的意思。to hold a hearing into sth. 意为“就某事举行意见听取会”。

为期一天的听证会将就把现行个人所得税工薪所得的减除标准从800元提高到1500元是否合适听取各方面的意见。

ps:这是N年前的事了
