This has sent an important signal that the report from the Zhejiang Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection and Supervision is of high quality | problem | report

The Zhejiang Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection and Supervision recently issued a notice on the investigation and punishment of violations of the central eight point regulations in June 2023, which has attracted people's attention.

This monthly report shows that disciplinary inspection and supervision organs at all levels in the province have investigated and dealt with 324 cases of formalism and bureaucracy, the vast majority of which were manifested as "irresponsible, inactive, disorderly, and false actions in fulfilling their duties, serving economic and social development, and ecological environment protection, seriously affecting high-quality development", reaching 272 cases, accounting for 84% of the total number of formalism and bureaucracy problems investigated and dealt with.

Since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, under the unified deployment of the central government, Zhejiang has reported monthly on the investigation and punishment of the "Four Winds" such as formalism, bureaucracy, hedonism, and extravagance. Observing recent reports, it can be found that "affecting high-quality development" has accounted for nearly 90% of formalism and bureaucracy issues.

What signal does the statement "seriously affect high-quality development" release?

one

What formalism and bureaucracy issues will affect high-quality development? How serious is it?

From the report, we can see the answer to this question: irresponsible, inaction, disorderly behavior, and false behavior.

"Not taking responsibility or taking action" is easy to understand. In short, it means that leading cadres are lazy and negligent in their governance, wanting to "lie on the merit book" and "serve as officials of peace.".

But as the saying goes, big development is difficult, small development is small, and not developing is the most difficult. Previously, a certain place had reported the issue of cadres not taking responsibility or taking action. Some of them do not attach importance to high-tech production projects, which dampens the investment enthusiasm of entrepreneurs; Some have been procrastinating and procrastinating in hundreds of communications with enterprises, resulting in long-term inability to start construction of projects; Some are afraid of making mistakes, afraid of taking responsibility, and are not proactive in their work, leading to the recovery of subsidy funds from superiors

Although the manifestations of these problems may vary, the ultimate outcome has seriously affected the high-quality development of the local area.

"Disorderly behavior", specifically manifested as arbitrary use of power.

For example, a public official in a certain place deliberately delayed the approval process, and went through the formalities for him after receiving Baijiu, milk and shopping cards from the operator. The consequences of using power for personal gain and infringing on the rights and interests of enterprises are the destruction of the local business environment, government service environment, approval environment, and other aspects. The damage to the business environment hinders the high-quality development of the economy.

Compared with inaction and disorderly behavior, false behavior is a new variant that has created a negative atmosphere in recent years and has stronger concealment.

This year, in the process of promoting food security and farmland protection in a certain city, relevant departments required towns and streets to complete the restoration of illegal land within two days, but there was no specific standard for rectification. Unrealistic job requirements and encountering leaders who are wholeheartedly catering to their superiors will only be a farce. After receiving instructions, a subordinate street directly dug up grass and found corn that had already been harvested from the fields to "plant" it, solving the problem of "non agriculturalization" of farmland. However, this approach neither increases arable land nor grows live corn, which is meaningless and laborious.

This kind of false action, called proactive action, is essentially inaction, which adds another layer of fraud to typical inaction, and the consequences and negative effects are even more terrifying.

The report of the 20th National Congress of the Communist Party of China pointed out that high-quality development is the primary task of comprehensively building a socialist modernized country. This requires leaders at all levels to strive to become professional cadres who can handle complex situations, solve practical problems, prevent and resolve risks, and promote high-quality development.

In this process, if cadres do not take responsibility, do not act, and lack execution and combat effectiveness, not only will they not be able to achieve success, but they will also cause trouble and harm. Therefore, investigating and punishing a group of cadres who affect high-quality development not only sends a signal of persistent efforts to address work style issues, but also demonstrates the determination to promote high-quality development.

One of the unique challenges that our big party must solve is how to always maintain a spirit of dedication and entrepreneurship.

One specific goal of the current thematic education is to take on practical responsibilities and promote development.

During a recent inspection in Jiangsu, General Secretary Xi Jinping emphasized that party organizations at all levels should educate and guide party members and cadres to implement the requirements of "emphasizing practice", adhere to the integration of learning and thinking, the unity of knowledge, trust and practice, and the orientation of correct work, strengthen the motivation of work, and form a joint force for work., To achieve tangible results in learning to promote work.

Promoting work through learning closely revolves around the primary task of high-quality development. In this process, there will inevitably be a large number of new problems that have never appeared before, encountering various difficulties and obstacles, and enduring many major tests such as high winds, waves, and even rough waves.

For Zhejiang, which aims to achieve common prosperity and provincial modernization in high-quality development, it is more likely to encounter some problems of early development, early development, and new development. The demand for cadres at all levels to take responsibility and strive for excellence is also more urgent.

On January 28th, the Zhejiang Provincial Party Committee's "New Year First Session" proposed to vigorously promote innovation, deepen reform, tackle difficulties, and improve opening up, while also putting forward requirements for the vast number of party members and cadres. The meeting emphasized that cadres should be the first to stimulate the innovation and creativity of the whole society, and cadres should be the first to lead the "ten thousand horses galloping" of high-quality development. They should gather a strong force of efficient cooperation, implementation, and overcoming difficulties, and promote innovation, reform, and opening up to achieve new substantive breakthroughs.

In this era, the ability and style issues that some cadres face become more prominent.

For example, some cadres lack the ability to handle complex situations, lack professional knowledge, and are at a loss in carrying out their work. A comrade from a certain marine functional department is an example. Due to insufficient professional knowledge reserves, this comrade is unaware of marine management affairs, and the supervision and management of the fishing port under his jurisdiction is chaotic and disorderly, with frequent problems.

For example, some cadres have insufficient experience, unclear thinking, and limited methods, making it difficult to break through the situation after working for a long time. In some development zones, there are problems such as "building nests to attract phoenixes without seeing them" and "only hearing thunder without seeing rain". Because cadres cannot do it, it has slowed down the pace of development.

The current changes in the world, the times, and history are unfolding in an unprecedented manner, placing higher demands on the ability of cadres to promote high-quality development. It forces them to find ways to improve their ability to serve high-quality development, which is also an important goal of regularly announcing the results of the "Four Winds" campaign.

Some cadres are clearly lacking in abilities and have no ability to panic, and have a bad attitude towards improving their work abilities. Some jobs have inertia thinking and path dependence, and are accustomed to waiting and relying on others for experience, relying on leadership for guidance, without innovative thinking and initiative; Some people scoff at theoretical learning and updating business knowledge, cannot afford the hardships of learning, cannot withstand the fatigue of work, neither willing to go to the grassroots nor willing to research work, lack ideological foundation, and work lacks grasp.

This kind of display ultimately stems from formalism and bureaucracy. It is better to hold accountable once than to mobilize a thousand times. Accurately holding accountable can deter and alert the whole situation. Only by allowing mediocre and lazy individuals to truly suffer, can an atmosphere of "clean and efficient work, clean and efficient work, and successful work" be created.

Motivating cadres to take on responsibilities in promoting high-quality development requires both negative punishment and incentive guidance.

General Secretary Xi Jinping pointed out: "it is necessary to distinguish the mistakes and mistakes made by cadres in promoting reform due to lack of experience and first trial from the violations of discipline and law that they knowingly commit; the mistakes and mistakes in exploratory experiments that have no clear restrictions on their superiors should be distinguished from the violations of discipline and law that still go their own way after being explicitly prohibited by their superiors. To distinguish unintentional negligence in order to promote development from violations of discipline and law for personal gain."

Zhejiang has made some explorations to implement the "three distinctions".

For example, in response to concerns among some cadres about the risks they may face after boldly taking on responsibilities and engaging in real conflicts, Zhejiang has explored and introduced policies related to reform, innovation, and fault tolerance. Data shows that since 2019, a total of 5952 party members and cadres and 180 party organizations in the province have clarified, investigated and dealt with 210 false accusations and 291 people.

Recently, the Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection and the Organization Department of the Provincial Party Committee jointly issued for the first time the "Implementation Measures for Deepening the Implementation of the" Three Distinctions "and Improving the Fault Tolerance and Error Correction Mechanism to Motivate Cadres to Take on Responsibility" in Zhejiang Province, clarifying the specific situation, scope of application, operating procedures, and responsibility implementation of fault tolerance and error correction.

For example, some leading cadres, in the process of promoting high-quality development and optimizing the business environment, break through conventions and conventions, boldly explore new mechanisms and models. If there are mistakes or mistakes, according to this implementation method, as long as they are within the bottom line of discipline and law, not knowingly committing the crime, not seeking personal gain, and not causing serious consequences, they can be fault-tolerant after being recognized.

On June 30th, the Zhejiang Provincial Party Committee held another commendation conference to encourage cadres to take on responsibilities, and commended the advanced models that have emerged among cadres on various fronts in the province.

Over the years, Zhejiang has commended more than 400 "responsible officials", more than 900 "responsible officials", 176 "civil servants satisfied by the people" and 111 "civil servant collectives satisfied by the people" in the province.

Among them, there are both government agencies and state-owned enterprises in universities; There are both economic departments and political and legal lines, as well as window units and people's livelihood fields; There are both department heads and county secretaries, as well as many township cadres. Although their work lines and fields are different, they share a common trait: they work hard in their respective positions and charge ahead in the main battlefield of high-quality development.

In the 2022 city and county elections, 22 provincial and municipal officials were appointed as good cadres and took up the positions of city level leadership and county party and government officials.

With the intensity of strict management and kindness, Party members and cadres should not only loosen their hands and feet, dress lightly, but also pay equal attention to diligence and integrity, and adhere to the right path. Only then can they further boost their spirit of "daring to act, daring to venture, daring to do, and daring to innovate", and become more and more brave in the race of high-quality development, achieving better results.
