Reform of Party and Government Institutions and the System of Government Administration

Since the policy of reform and opening up was initiated, several rounds of institutional reform have been launched. Further reform measures were proposed in the report to the 19th CPC National Congress, including an integrated approach to reconfurating the structures of Party and government institutions, and rational assignment of clearly defined responsibilities among these institutions and their internal bodies. There should be better coordination in the use of various types of staffing resources. Efforts will be made to rationalize the governance structure, and improve the organic law for state institutions.

Transformation of government functions will be accompanied by moves to further streamline government and delegate powers, improve regulatory practices, and strengthen government credibility and effectiveness, with the aim of building a service-oriented government able to satisfy the needs of the people.

More power should be delegated to governments at and below the provincial level, and possibilities will be explored to merge or co-locate Party and government bodies with similar functions at the provincial, prefectural, and county levels. Reform of public institutions will continue, so as to ensure that they focus on serving the public good, without venturing into business activities, or being burdened with government functions. While government supervision remains indispensable, these institutions are responsible for their day-to-day operations.

The third plenary session of the 19th CPC Central Committee in February 2018 reviewed and approved the Decision of the CPC Central Committee on Deepening the Reform of Party and Government Institutions and the Plan for Deepening the Reform of Party and Government Institutions, marking a new step forward in this work.
