Yesterday afternoon, the Second Session of the 13th National People’s Congress held a press conference on "NPC supervision".

　　Yin Zhongqing, deputy director of the Financial and Economic Committee of the National People’s Congress, said at the press conference that this year, the National Bureau of Statistics began to conduct unified accounting of the regional GDP of various provinces, autonomous regions and municipalities, and "stopped" the practice of ranking the total GDP and speed of various places.

　　Administrative state-owned assets

　　The special report is to be considered this year.

　　At the meeting, a reporter asked, last year, the State Council reported the state-owned assets management to the National People’s Congress Standing Committee (NPCSC) for the first time, which was the first time that the state-owned assets were presented to the people of the whole country. What has the National People’s Congress done for this? What are you going to do this year?

　　In this regard, Zhu Mingchun, deputy director of the the National People’s Congress Standing Committee (NPCSC) Budget Working Committee, said, "the National People’s Congress Standing Committee (NPCSC) listened to and considered the State Council’s comprehensive report on the management of state-owned assets and the special report on the state-owned assets of financial enterprises at the meeting of the Standing Committee last October. This is the first time since the founding of New China that a full-caliber clear account has been submitted. The comprehensive report focuses on reflecting the overall situation, while the special report focuses more on the outstanding problems of state-owned assets of financial enterprises. This mode of combining comprehensive report and special report is the first in the National People’s Congress Standing Committee (NPCSC), and it is also carried out in the whole country in this way.

　　Zhu Mingchun also revealed that a "five-year work plan" for state-owned assets reporting has been formulated with relevant departments, and is now being submitted for approval according to procedures. "In the past five years, there will be a comprehensive report and a special report every year. Last year, financial state-owned assets were reported. This year, it is expected to carry out a special work report on administrative state-owned assets, and then there will be state-owned assets of non-financial enterprises and natural resources. Report, gradually expand to achieve full coverage, and truly do a good job in state-owned assets supervision." Zhu Mingchun said.

　　Revision of statistical method

　　Included in the legislative plan

　　In response to the problem of falsification of statistical data, Yin Zhongqing, deputy director of the NPC Financial and Economic Committee, said, "Last year, the National People’s Congress Standing Committee (NPCSC) launched a statistical law enforcement inspection. The NPC Financial and Economic Committee was divided into three groups and went to six provinces to conduct law enforcement inspections. At the same time, it also entrusted seven provinces, autonomous regions and municipalities to conduct self-inspections. Judging from the law enforcement inspection, various localities and departments also reflected that there are still some shortcomings and problems in the implementation of the statistical law, mainly in five aspects."

　　Yin Zhongqing said, for example, some places engage in comparison and competition, falsifying data at the source, making false reports, concealing reports and omitting reports. The standards, methods, caliber and data of departmental statistics are inconsistent, resulting in data fights, forming "data islands" and "data chimneys", and the sharing of statistical information is slow. In addition, the statistical system lags behind the needs of high-quality development in the new era. For some emerging problems, such as new technologies, new industries, new formats and new models, there is still a lack of accurate statistics.

　　In December last year, the National Bureau of Statistics submitted a report to the National People’s Congress Standing Committee (NPCSC) on the implementation of the inspection report on law enforcement of the National People’s Congress Standing Committee (NPCSC) Statistics Law and its deliberation opinions.

　　Judging from the rectification over the past six months, this law enforcement inspection has made positive progress in promoting the solution of outstanding problems.

　　For example, governments at various localities and levels have squeezed the moisture from some statistical data accumulated in previous years, especially through law enforcement inspection to urge governments at all levels to solve the problem of statistical data distortion, and solve the problems of concealment, omission, false report, false report, repeated report and late report from the system, so as to effectively improve the quality of statistical data and make it true and reliable.

　　Promote the reform of national economic accounting. Organize the implementation of unified accounting of regional GDP, which will be carried out nationwide from this year. The National Bureau of Statistics will conduct unified accounting of regional GDP of all provinces, autonomous regions and municipalities, stop ranking the total GDP and speed of all local regions, explore the preparation of national balance sheets, national balance sheets and natural resources balance sheets of all provinces, autonomous regions and municipalities, improve the assessment and evaluation mechanism, and promote the establishment of a correct outlook on political achievements.

　　In addition, promote the reform and abolition of laws and regulations. The revision of statistical law has been included in the 13th legislative plan of the National People’s Congress Standing Committee (NPCSC), and related work is progressing steadily. The formulation and revision of national census regulations, folk statistical investigation regulations and other supporting laws and regulations for statistical law are also being studied and promoted.

　　Implicit debt of local government

　　Steady and orderly "dissolve the stock"

　　At the scene, a reporter asked, what measures does the National People’s Congress take to supervise and prevent the hidden debts of local governments?

　　In this regard, Zhu Mingchun responded that the debts borrowed by local governments according to law have all been included in budget management and open and transparent, and the risks are controllable. "Implicit debts are indeed risky in some places, and one of the reasons is that this base is not particularly clear."

　　He said, in accordance with the unified arrangements of the CPC Central Committee, the hidden debts of local governments were thoroughly investigated last year, and the national data are still being counted, some of which need to be screened by the relevant departments in the State Council. Judging from the special investigation organized by the National People’s Congress Standing Committee (NPCSC) last year, the scale of implicit debt in some places is relatively large and the growth is relatively fast. In some places, the implicit debt is higher than the debt within the legal limit, and the risks in some places are still quite prominent.

　　"Last year, the CPC Central Committee and the State Council made important arrangements to prevent and resolve the hidden debt risks of local governments, which were actively implemented by governments at all levels, and the growth momentum of hidden debt was curbed, and the work of resolving the stock was also carried out in a safe and orderly manner."

　　Do a good job in the law on administrative sanctions and the law on supervisors

　　Preparatory work before deliberation

　　Since the establishment of the Judicial Committee on Supervision of the National People’s Congress, what work has been done in supervision?

　　In response to a reporter’s question, Xu Xianming, vice chairman of the NPC Supervisory and Judicial Committee, said, "The NPC Supervisory and Judicial Committee was established in March last year, and it has been exactly one year since this year.".

　　He said: over the past year, the Supervision and Judicial Committee has conducted investigations on the reform of the supervision system and the implementation of the supervision law, learned about the latest progress of the reform of the national supervision system and the implementation of the supervision law, and put forward opinions and suggestions on the work. Intervene in the legislative work such as the law on administrative sanctions and the law on supervisory officials in advance, and promote the improvement of the supporting laws of the supervisory law.

　　"The law on administrative sanctions and the law on supervisory officials, which are derived from the supervision law, are being formulated, and our committee has been involved in the formulation of these two laws in advance".

　　He revealed that this year, the legislative work of the law on administrative sanctions and the law on the Ombudsman will be promoted. "These two legislative items have been included in the legislative plan of the 13th the National People’s Congress Standing Committee (NPCSC), and our committee will continue to intervene in the drafting of these two laws in advance, and cooperate with the legislative bodies of the National Supervisory Commission (NSC) and the Standing Committee to make good preparations before deliberation."

　　In addition, it will assist the Standing Committee to carry out special investigations on the reform of the supervision system and the implementation of the supervision law. Focus on investigating new situations and new problems in the implementation of the supervision law.

　　In response to the question "What kind of consideration does the NPC have for the supervision of the supervisory organs in the next step", Xu Xianming responded that the supervision and supervision work of the NPC will be promoted in an orderly manner according to the provisions of the Constitution and the Supervision Law.
