After listening to the explanation and discussion, Xi Jinping delivered an important speech. He first said that in a few days it will be the 103rd anniversary of the founding of our party. On behalf of the Party Central Committee, I extend holiday greetings to all Communist Party members across the country!
Xi Jinping pointed out that since the 18th CPC National Congress, we have unswervingly promoted the comprehensive and strict governance of the Party, achieved a series of theoretical innovations, practical innovations, and institutional innovations, built a comprehensive and strict governance system for the Party, and opened up a new realm for the self-revolution of the century-old Party. At the same time, we must also see that the "four major tests" and "four dangers" faced by the Party will exist for a long time, and the comprehensive and strict governance of the Party will always be on the road, and the Party's self-revolution will always be on the road. The whole Party must always maintain the sobriety and determination of "taking the test", and take the improvement of the comprehensive and strict governance system of the Party as an effective way to continuously push forward the new great project of Party building in the new era.
Xi Jinping stressed the need to improve an organizational system that is connected from top to bottom and has strong execution. We must uphold the authority and centralized and unified leadership of the CPC Central Committee, improve the implementation mechanism of the CPC Central Committee's major decisions and arrangements, and ensure that the CPC Central Committee's orders are smooth and enforced. We must adhere to and improve the leadership system and organizational management system for party building work, form a work pattern of focusing on one level at a time, leading the lower levels at the same level, and strengthening the grassroots and strengthening the foundation, and promote the comprehensive improvement of party organizations at all levels and in all fields. We must vigorously promote party building to lead grassroots governance, continue to rectify weak and lax grassroots party organizations, and effectively improve the ability of grassroots party organizations to lead grassroots governance. We must explore ways to strengthen party building work in new economic organizations, new social organizations, and new employment groups, and innovate the setting and activities of party organizations. We must be good at using Internet technology and information technology to carry out party building work, and strive to achieve full offline and online coverage of party organizations and party work.
Xi Jinping pointed out that we need to improve the education system that consolidates the foundation, strengthens the mind and builds the soul. We must grasp the foundation of ideological construction, unremittingly promote the party's innovative theoretical arming, and persistently strengthen party spirit education. We must adhere to the combination of regular education and concentrated education, theoretical arming and practical application, strengthening party spirit and increasing skills, and improve and implement a long-term mechanism for learning to build the soul, increase wisdom, correct style and promote work. Taking the ongoing party discipline study and education as an opportunity, we should guide party members and cadres to integrate strengthening party spirit, strictly observing discipline and tempering style, integrate them into daily life and turn them into habits.
Xi Jinping stressed that it is necessary to improve the supervision system that is precise and effective and addresses both the symptoms and root causes. We must adhere to the principle of combining the Party's character, style and discipline with the treatment of illnesses and strengthening the body, improve the Party member management mechanism, improve the mechanism for strict management and supervision of cadres, improve the normalized mechanism for rectifying style and enforcing discipline, and improve the mechanism for promoting the work of not daring to be corrupt, not being able to be corrupt, and not wanting to be corrupt. Adhere to the combination of the Party's self-supervision and people's supervision, promote the coordination of various types of supervision, and improve the supervision system with unified leadership, comprehensive coverage, authority and efficiency of the Party. We must focus on political supervision, supervision of the leadership team, especially the "top leader", supervision of "three major and one important" matters, and supervision of key areas such as power concentration, capital intensiveness, and resource enrichment, so that privilege and corruption problems can be exposed.
Xi Jinping pointed out that we need to improve a scientific, complete, effective and practical system. We must strengthen system integration, make system construction compatible with the needs of party governance and party building, and match the various party constructions, and weave a cage of systems in all directions. We must deepen the reform of party regulations and systems, do a good job in top-level design, check for loopholes and fill gaps, improve quality and increase efficiency, face practical needs, timely elevate good experiences and practices into systems, focus on improving the execution of systems, and promote the in-depth development of comprehensive and strict party governance on the track of laws and regulations.
Xi Jinping stressed the need to improve a responsibility system with clear subjects and requirements. It is necessary to establish and improve a responsibility system in a hierarchical and classified manner to promote party organizations at all levels and the majority of party members and cadres to know their responsibilities, assume their responsibilities, and fulfill their responsibilities. It is necessary to clarify the main responsibility of the party committee for comprehensive and strict governance of the party, clarify the supervisory responsibility of discipline inspection committees at all levels, clarify the responsibility of the party committee secretary as the first person in charge, clarify the responsibility of the leadership team members for managing and governing the party, and clarify the specific responsibilities of party members and cadres. Improve a precise and scientific accountability mechanism, transmit pressure layer by layer, and promote the implementation of the responsibility for managing and governing the party with the main responsible parties, responsibility requirements, and assessment and accountability in place.
Xi Jinping finally pointed out that in order to improve the system of comprehensive and strict governance of the Party and deepen the comprehensive and strict governance of the Party, the comrades of the Political Bureau of the Central Committee must take the lead and be role models, be strict with themselves, shoulder their responsibilities, and manage their jurisdiction strictly, unite and lead the entire Party to govern the Party well and build a strong Party, and provide strong guarantees for comprehensively promoting the construction of a strong country and the great cause of national rejuvenation with Chinese-style modernization.
