Chapter 350: Refuge

The Standing Committee held a short meeting in the morning, and mainly studied two topics: one was the punishment of the Zhenyu lead-zinc mine for stealing state mineral deposits, and the other was the appointment and dismissal of Luo Xiong, Li Yi, and Wang Lei.

On the issue of the Zhenyu lead-zinc mine, the Standing Committee voted and passed two resolutions: first, in the name of the county government, it made a report to the Min'an Municipal Government, the Municipal Land Bureau, and the Provincial Department of Land and Resources, listing in detail the serious problems of the Zhenyu lead-zinc mine, such as stealing national minerals and polluting the surrounding environment, and requesting the higher-level government and land departments not to issue mining licenses to the mine; Second, the county public security bureau will file a case and investigate Ouyang Zhi and others on suspicion of stealing national mineral resources and tax evasion, and after finding relevant evidence, they will immediately take criminal detention measures against them, and severely punish them in accordance with relevant laws and regulations.

On the issue of the appointment and dismissal of Luo Xiong and others, the Standing Committee meeting decided to nominate Luo Xiong as political commissar of the county public security bureau and Li Yi and Wang Lei as deputy directors of the county public security bureau, and to submit the nomination to the Min'an City Public Security Bureau for comments in accordance with organizational procedures. Until the arrival of the new chief of public security, Luo Xiong continued to serve as acting chief.

When voting on the above resolution, Zhong Yin and Yang Jianglong, secretary of the Political and Legal Committee, both voted against. On the issue of the Zhenyu lead-zinc mine, Zhong Yin also said with emotion: Three months ago, the standing committee of the county party committee had voted to approve the Zhenyu lead-zinc mine to apply for a mining license, but now it has gone back on its word and demanded that the higher-level government and land department refuse to issue this certificate. The Standing Committee of the county party committee, as the highest decision-making body in Beishan County, since it made that decision at the beginning, even a piece of had to be swallowed hard, how could there be such a reason to overturn the old resolution with a new resolution? If this report is sent up, what will the municipal committee think of us? What will the land department think of us?

Ye Ming refuted his viewpoint on the spot, saying that the greatest merit of our party and government is not that we do not make mistakes, but that we can correct them in a timely manner after making mistakes. Now facts have proved that the Standing Committee made a big mistake in approving the Zhenyu lead-zinc mine to apply for a mining license. If Zhenyu lead-zinc mine obtains the mining right, it will not only cause environmental problems, but also have huge safety risks. Now that we know this is a big mistake, why can't we correct it in time?

Zhong Yin was speechless by Ye Ming's refutation, puffing out his cheeks and no longer speaking, but still insisted on voting against the vote......

After the meeting, Ye Ming had just walked into the secretary's office, and Song Zheming, secretary of the Political and Legal Committee of the Municipal Party Committee, unexpectedly appeared at the door of his office.

Ye Ming hurriedly invited Song Zheming into the office, personally made him a cup of tea, and then sat side by side on the sofa with him, waiting for him to speak.

Song Zheming slowly took a sip of tea, then raised his eyes to look at Ye Ming, and asked, "Xiao Ye, did you just hold a standing committee to study and deal with the problem of Zhenyu's lead-zinc mine?" ”

Ye Ming quickly glanced at him in a little surprise, nodded and said, "That's right, we did study this topic just now. ”

"What are the results of the study?"

"First, in the name of the county government, report to the higher authorities and request that the mining license for the Zhenyu lead-zinc mine not be issued; Second, the public security organs will file a case against Ouyang Zhi, the owner of the lead-zinc mine, and several other responsible persons, and investigate them for the crimes of stealing state mineral resources and tax evasion in accordance with the law. ”

Song Zheming's fingers unconsciously circled the teacup, and after a few strokes, he raised his head to look at Ye Ming, and said slowly: "Xiao Ye, on the issue of Zhenyu lead-zinc mine, I suggest you be cautious. First of all, the report on the mining license of Zhenyu Lead-Zinc Mine was originally approved by your county, and now the municipal government has also approved it, and it will be reported to the Department of Land and Resources immediately. If this mining license is issued, you will have a large mining enterprise in Beishan, which will be very beneficial to the economic development and financial revenue growth of your poor county. These problems can be avoided and solved, right?

"Secondly, you are ready to punish Ouyang Zhi and others for the crime of stealing national mineral resources and tax evasion, as a higher-level political and legal organ, we think it is inappropriate to do so. In our opinion, Zhenyu lead-zinc mine has handled the "Prospecting License", and they have drilled wells and prospected within the geographical scope specified in the "Prospecting License", during which some minerals were mined and sold, which is in line with the national policies and regulations on mineral exploration, and is not in violation of laws and regulations, and is not linked to the crime of stealing national mineral resources.

"As for tax evasion, as far as I know, Zhenyu Lead-Zinc Mine has not applied for a tax registration certificate, and the national and local taxation authorities in your county have not required them to apply for a certificate. If you want to be held accountable, first of all, there is a serious problem of dereliction of duty due to the inaction of your tax authorities. Although enterprises are also responsible, this is caused by the inaction of the tax authorities, and I think it is a bit inappropriate to pursue the crime of tax evasion. ”

Ye Ming didn't expect Song Zheming to use such a crooked theory to defend the Zhenyu lead-zinc mine, and couldn't help but be surprised, and couldn't help but refute: "Secretary Song, after our investigation, although the mine of Zhenyu lead-zinc mine is within the geographical range specified in the "Prospecting License", the extension direction of this mine is the lead-zinc ore deposit under Jiguanling. According to the law enforcement officers of the Land Bureau, their prospecting roadway drove more than 600 meters to the northwest and entered the location of the proven lead-zinc deposits, far beyond the exploration scope stipulated in the "Prospecting License". It can be seen that the Zhenyu lead-zinc mine did not want to prospect for ore from the beginning, but stole the minerals at the foot of Jiguanling Mountain in the name of prospecting.

In addition, on the issue of tax evasion, although Zhenyu Lead-Zinc Mine has not applied for a tax registration certificate, according to the judicial interpretation of the Ministry of Public Security, a taxpayer who has not handled a tax registration certificate can also constitute the subject of tax evasion, and as long as the taxpayer has tax evasion, he should be investigated for judicial responsibility in accordance with relevant laws and regulations. Zhenyu lead-zinc mine mined and sold a large number of lead-zinc ore products in a period of up to two years, and the operating income was huge, but it did not declare and pay relevant taxes in accordance with the law, which is an obvious tax evasion and should be severely punished. As for the responsibility of the tax authorities you mentioned, we will also seriously pursue the responsibility after verification, but that is another matter, and it is not possible to stop pursuing the crime of tax evasion because the tax authorities have dereliction of duty, what do you think? ”

Song Zheming's face suddenly fell, and he asked, "So, the two suggestions I just made, you are ready to take none of them, right?" ”

Ye Ming nodded very firmly and said: "Yes, we handled the problem of Zhenyu lead-zinc mine in accordance with laws and regulations, and I hope to get the strong support of Secretary Song and the Municipal Legal Committee!" ”

Song Zheming stood up, and said with a blushing face: "Xiao Ye, since you are so stubborn, I won't bother to say more." By the way, let me tell you one thing: the Municipal Public Security Bureau has determined the candidates for the director and political commissar of the Beishan Public Security Bureau, and submitted them to the Political and Legal Committee of the Municipal Party Committee. The candidate for director is Comrade Lin Shan, director of the Propaganda Department of the Municipal Public Security Bureau, and the candidate for political commissar is Comrade Li Da, executive deputy director of the Yanshan County Public Security Bureau. Luo Xiong, the political commissar candidate submitted by your county party committee, has been rejected by the city public security bureau. ”
