The Central Commission for Discipline Inspection has issued its first centralized notice
The report shows that the Second Plenary Session of the 20th Central Commission for Discipline Inspection has made arrangements to strengthen work style construction, emphasizing the need to focus on rectifying formalism and bureaucracy. Recently, the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection and the National Supervisory Commission publicly reported ten typical problems of formalism and bureaucracy that have increased the burden on grassroots levels.
The ten typical problems are: the problem of repeatedly forwarding documents and copying the content of higher-level documents by the Baicheng Municipal Government Office in Jilin Province; The formulation of documents by the Benxi City Federation of Trade Unions in Liaoning Province is detached from reality and involves multiple layers of escalation; The Medical Insurance Bureau of Pinghu City, Zhejiang Province has simplified the methods and methods in improving the settlement rate of electronic medical insurance vouchers, resulting in the problem of medical institutions inflating outpatient departments and false brushing of orders; The market supervision and administration bureau of Jiaxiang County, Shandong Province, has violated regulations by transferring and distributing fees to the public through arbitrary use of power; The Outdoor Advertising Setting Management Office of the Macheng City Urban Management Law Enforcement Bureau in Hubei Province violated regulations by requiring communities to vote during online evaluations; The maintenance service center of municipal public facilities in Chenzhou City, Hunan Province, faces problems of inaction, slow action, and disorderly behavior in government services; The Planning and Natural Resources Bureau of Shuangliu District, Chengdu City, Sichuan Province is promoting the simplification of illegal land use rectification, and Yixin Street is engaging in formalism in the rectification process; The agricultural ecological environment and resource protection station in Bijie City, Guizhou Province, has caused excessive leaving of traces; The Yongshan County Government Service Management Bureau in Yunnan Province issued unrealistic task indicators during the promotion and application of the "One Mobile Service"; The settlement and electronic banking department of Industrial and Commercial Bank of China Guangdong Shaoguan Branch requires duplicate data submission.
Shangguanhe noted that this is the first time that the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection has concentrated on reporting typical issues of formalism and bureaucracy that have increased the burden on grassroots levels. Among them, in the issue of repeated forwarding and copying of superior documents by the Baicheng Municipal Government Office in Jilin Province, it was reported that in August 2020, the Baicheng Municipal Government Office forwarded the documents issued by the Jilin Provincial Department of Civil Affairs at the city and county levels to each county. In 2021, the work plan for the construction of urban farmland protection forest system and the implementation plan for the rectification of feedback issues from routine land inspections, which were formulated and issued, have a duplication rate of over 80% with the content of the documents issued by the General Office of the Jilin Provincial Government. The person in charge of the office of the Baicheng Municipal Government has been organized and dealt with.
The notice also pointed out that formalism and bureaucracy are the great enemies of the Party and the people, and they are the "stumbling blocks" that hinder the smooth progress of the great historical cause of building a strong country and national rejuvenation. We must always adhere to a problem oriented approach, deepen the expansion and rectification of formalism to reduce the burden on grassroots work, and inspire cadres to forge ahead with full spirit and fighting spirit in the new era and new journey.
Timely report and expose typical cases to form a strong deterrent
Rectifying formalism and bureaucracy to reduce the burden on the grassroots is an important task specially deployed and promoted by the Party Central Committee for five consecutive years. Under the strong leadership of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China, various regions and departments have continuously made efforts to solve a number of prominent problems and curb some unhealthy practices. At the same time, some formalistic and bureaucratic issues continue to persist, with old problems becoming invisible and new problems emerging from time to time.
The China Discipline Inspection and Supervision Daily published a comment today titled "Deepening and Expanding Formalism to Reduce Burden at the Grassroots", which pointed out that from the situation of this report, some have repeatedly forwarded documents and copied the content of higher-level documents, some have formulated documents that are detached from reality and layered, some arbitrarily use their power to illegally transfer and distribute fees to the masses, some do not act slowly or recklessly in government services, some are caused by "trace ideology" to increase the burden on the grassroots, and some have issued unrealistic task indicators... This once again shows that rectifying formalism and bureaucracy to reduce burden at the grassroots level is not a one-time achievement, and it is necessary to maintain perseverance, courage, and a resolute attitude, persistently grasp it, hammer after hammer, and hammer after hammer. Continuously increase work efforts to better benefit grassroots cadres and the masses through the results of load reduction.
The comments point out that party organizations at all levels should regard the rectification of formalism and bureaucracy as a major political task to reduce the burden on the grassroots, and place it in an important position to grasp. In accordance with the requirements of the Party Central Committee, they should carefully search for any formalism and bureaucracy that increase the burden on the grassroots, and not avoid or dodge them. Targeted rectification and practical rectification should be carried out. The leading organs should thoroughly examine the problems that are manifested at the grassroots level and rooted at the top, take the initiative to rectify and take the lead in rectification, resolutely prevent bureaucracy from giving rise to formalism, and resolutely prevent formalism from opposing formalism.
The comments point out that reality shows that formalism, which increases the burden on grassroots, has different manifestations in different regions, fields, and levels, and must be accurately detected, targeted and effectively addressed. Disciplinary inspection and supervision organs should strengthen investigation and research, closely monitor old and new situations that increase the burden on grassroots, remind and correct early signs of tendencies, seriously deal with violations and disciplinary actions, timely report and expose typical cases, and form a strong deterrent.
