Chinese lawmakers are considering tougher penalties for those who steal the identities of others to enroll in a school or college.
The draft amendment to the nation s Education Law was presented on Monday to the lawmakers for the second reading at the ongoing session of the Standing Committee of the National People s Congress.
The draft stipulates that such impostors will be barred from relevant national examinations for two to five years, instead of one to three years in the first reading.
