Chapter 591: Standing Committee Decision (2)

"Administering according to law and establishing a government under the rule of law is a task that the central authorities have repeatedly emphasized and attached great importance to, and it is also a guiding principle of strategic significance put forward to adapt to the economic and social development environment since the reform and opening up, which is not only beneficial to social development at the present stage, but also a major event for the benefit of future generations. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 After Qi Tianxiang stabilized his mood, he said slowly: "To achieve such a goal and reduce the software and hardware environment that hinders economic and social development, the first task is to improve the work efficiency of administrative law enforcement agencies, reduce the negative impact of bloated and redundant institutions on administrative organs, strengthen the efficient, clean, capable and pragmatic government system, and provide the necessary guarantee for administration according to law and the establishment of a rule of law government." ā€

Qi Tianxiang said slowly, as if he was also aware of the pale and powerless nature of his words, for these people sitting in this conference room, these high-sounding truths are not only talked about by everyone, but also on their lips almost every day, and they have become the content that must be said every time they speak. If you talk too much, it will undoubtedly be like nonsense, not only will it have no practical effect, but it will also have a negative effect because it is boring.

"The provincial government is composed of 43 departments and administrative organs, not including the temporarily established institutions and units, and the total number of administrative personnel is 6,362, which does not include the personnel of the second-level units and institutions, not to mention the personnel of the educational, medical, cultural, radio and television and other self-supporting public institutions, as well as the units and personnel stationed at the grassroots level in the prefectures and cities. If all these personnel are taken together, the total number of personnel in administrative institutions under the management of the provincial government is 32,715. This should be an accurate figure that can be trusted. Before Qi Tianxiang's words fell, it caused an uproar in the conference room, which Qi Tianxiang could predict, so he paused for a moment, and then said: "Supporting the personnel of these administrative and public institutions, although there are also branches and expenditures, or self-collection and self-support, etc., just looking at the use and expenditure of administrative funds, the annual salary and capitation office expenses will reach more than 1.6 billion yuan, and if you add the financial funds consumed by various expenses, the total amount will reach 4.6 percent of the net financial income. The gross number accounts for about 10 percent. ā€

Qi Tianxiang said this series of numbers without thinking, and did not look at everyone's stunned eyes, but turned to Lin Dongsheng and said seriously: "This is the situation at the provincial level, although it is overwhelming, but at present, there will be no problems, and it is still much better than the grassroots level." In some remote and economically backward counties, cities, and districts, financial support has become a major matter, and ensuring wages and operations has become a top priority for the localities, and in order to cope with the ever-expanding consumption of personnel, many localities have to rely on bank loans or issue local bonds to raise funds, and even government compounds have been mortgaged to banks. After the abolition of the agricultural tax, a wide variety of fees and charges were introduced, such as air control fees, population movement management fees, and rural environment improvement fees, with the aim of increasing government revenues. This has not only increased the burden on the peasants again, but also increased the scale of the three chaos in disguise, which has done a lot of harm! ā€

Lin Dongsheng listened to Qi Tianxiang's narration and knew that what he said was the truth, and many situations were more serious than what he said, but at this moment, he didn't want to interject to interrupt Qi Tianxiang's narration, but nodded gently, looked at Qi Tianxiang intently, and waited for him to continue to express his thoughts.

"That is, in view of the problems at the grassroots level, the provincial government is determined to start from itself, take the lead in demonstration, carry out institutional reform and personnel streamlining work, start from improving the government structure and administrative management system, eliminate unnecessary units and personnel that do not belong to the scope of government functions, merge and adjust the administrative functions of overlapping and similar functions, standardize the scope and field of law enforcement, and truly set up institutions and management authority in accordance with the laws of the market economy, so as to reduce the burden on society." Qi Tianxiang confidently explained his assumptions, and still said unhurriedly: "This is also to provide a reference and reference idea for all cities to use, so as to achieve good results from the top to the bottom, so as to fundamentally make substantive work for the establishment of an efficient rule of law government." ā€

As Qi Tianxiang spoke, he paused again, looked around at everyone and said: "The focus and starting point of this institutional reform is to straighten out the management organs, strip off the administrative institutions that do not belong to the government administrative management system, as well as the state-owned enterprises and institutions similar to the management of public institutions, so that the government management functions can truly be transformed into administration according to law, management according to regulations, and the establishment of a market economy pattern of small government and large services in the true sense." ā€

"In fact, this is not our province in the unusual, change the management system of public institutions, and divest market-oriented and enterprise-oriented public institutions, but also the basic idea of the central government for the reform of the administrative management system, but also encourage and advocate. We are just carrying out the work of taking the lead and experimenting, and if we synchronize with the central authorities' policy decisions, we will be better able to obtain strong support and specific policy guidance from the central authorities. Qi Tianxiang slowly explained the idea of the plan, and then added: "The field and scope involved in the plan are also determined for this idea, focusing on the transformation and stripping of public institutions, so that public institutions can be administrative, and establish a service system that conforms to the laws of the market. Relatively speaking, it is still mild, generally controllable, and it is a classified policy, and a long transition period is limited, which will not cause excessive shocks and will not have too much impact on government administrative work. ā€

"Comrade Tianxiang has said so much, I think we should all understand it! Even if you can't figure it out for the time being, you can understand his good intentions and ideas through his narration! Lin Dongsheng heard Qi Tianxiang say that the effect, and understood that his words were basically finished, so he took the words and looked around at everyone with a slight seriousness and said: "In the first year of the establishment of the new provincial government, it did not hold the defects or stick to the rules, but boldly innovated and reformed the system and mechanism. ā€

Lin Dongsheng's voice was not high, but it was full of majesty and solemnity, echoing for a long time in the silent conference room, which also fully showed the prestige of the secretary of the provincial party committee, and the speed of speech was slow, as if to highlight the weight of the words. Seeing that everyone was listening attentively, Lin Dongsheng then said solemnly: "The problem that Comrade Tianxiang mentioned about the bloated provincial government agencies and the overstaffing of people, especially the situation of overstretched finances at the grassroots level and the chaotic situation of fees, among our Standing Committee members here, especially those who have worked at the grassroots level and have done government management work, are very clear, needless to say, we also know what the situation is at the grassroots level now, and what is the most urgent and urgent problem to be solved. ā€

Lin Dongsheng completely controlled the emotions in the conference room and also controlled the rhythm of the meeting, which is what he is very confident and satisfied with. As the leader of a large economic province, so many years of career experience, especially his step by step from the grassroots to such a high position, he involuntarily formed a strong character, as well as an almost arbitrary work style, and full of optimism and confidence in his own ideas and feelings, very unwilling to change himself for some things.

Even when he was in the team with Zhao Haonan, he did not have too much humility in the position of governor, which made the relationship between the provincial government and the provincial party committee tense for a while, and there were also many rumors that the secretary of the provincial party committee and the provincial governor were back-to-back, which aroused great concern from the central government. Although it is not as serious as the legend, according to the overall deployment of the central government and the overall consideration of the economic development of Hohai Province, the central government decisively adjusted the leadership of Hohai Province, and Lin Dongsheng was finally able to achieve positive results and become the secretary of the provincial party committee.

From the adjustment and deployment of the central government, with Lin Dongsheng's political sense and experience, it is not difficult to perceive the central government's accommodation to him, and after joining the provincial party committee, Lin Dongsheng has also become more tactful, especially for the so-called financial innovation of the successor governor Chen Nengliang, who is almost nonsense, he also adopts a tolerant and indulgent attitude. After all, it is the work of the provincial government, after all, Chen Nengliang has the identity of the central financial department, everything he does is only a requirement for political performance, and it can only be a short-term behavior, and the purpose is still a gorgeous turn after gilding. Lin Dongsheng didn't want to entangle with him too much, his eyes went further, and he put it on the ideal candidate who could better control the overall situation of the province's economic work after Chen Nengliang tossed it.

Since when he has identified Qi Tianxiang's ability and potential, Lin Dongsheng can't say very clearly. As the former governor's son-in-law, Lin Dongsheng was not interested in Qi Tianxiang's way of doing things at the beginning, and even had some disdain, but due to the different departments he was in, Lin Dongsheng didn't pay much attention to what Qi Tianxiang did. After all, it was the old governor's arrangement, and I can understand his good intentions.

Paying attention to and being interested in Qi Tianxiang was when Qi Tianxiang was the full-time deputy leader of the provincial deep reform team. Originally, this arrangement was a foreshadowing for Qi Tianxiang to enter the circle of the Standing Committee in advance, which has obvious implications, because in essence, the full-time deputy leader himself has pressed all the Standing Committee members and vice governors behind, which indirectly shows that Qi Tianxiang already has the reality of the Standing Committee of the Provincial Party Committee.

This is a big gift from Zhao Haonan to Yan Bonian, and he can see it clearly in his eyes. Qi Tianxiang was promoted from a member of the Standing Committee of the Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection and director of the Political Research Office to the secretary of the Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection. If there is no strong political performance and actual performance to support, it will not only be difficult to convince the public, but also make the upward path difficult.
