Improve and improve the way and governance of township governance

As the most basic first-level political organization in China, townships and towns, as the implementers of the party's line, principles and policies in rural areas, face the great process of how to improve and perfect the way of governing and enhance the ability to control in the process of scientific governance, democratic governance, and legal governance. Question. Our department set up a special research group to conduct a survey for more than one month on this topic, and actively explore ways to improve and improve the township governance style and enhance the township regulation and control, and form this research report.

First, the status quo of township regulation

In a narrow sense, township regulation and control refers to the power and ability of townships to regulate and control within townships, department stations, and village-level organizations. It is manifested in influence, appeal, and coordination. In a broad sense, the township regulation should also include the service capabilities of townships and towns, townships, villages, and village-level organizations, which are characterized by affinity, cohesion, and centripetal force.

Weak control ability

As the main body of regulation, the township party committee and government have weak overall adjustment ability at this stage.

1. Party and government operations are not standardized. First, the party and government are not divided. The phenomenon of the township party and government joint meeting replacing the party committee and the township head office meeting is more common. Second, the party and government are not harmonious. Some township party committee secretaries have a weak sense of democratic decision-making and are accustomed to engaging in "one-word hall"; some township heads think that administrative affairs management implements the head responsibility system and does not accept the opinions of party committees in certain major government decisions.

2. The cadre team is not suitable. First, the lack of individual work ability. New contradictions and new problems in rural work require township cadres to adjust their new thinking in a timely manner and pay attention to new methods to solve them. Second, the overall work efficiency is not high. Third, some cadres lacked dynamism and their style was not true.

Weak regulation of financial resources

The necessary financial resources are an important guarantee for the township regulation and control. As far as Yongjia County is concerned, the financial foundation of townships is quite weak. First, the funds available for township finance are seriously insufficient. The financial base of mountainous townships is very weak. Although the financial resources of Yanjiang Township are relatively sufficient, the available financial resources for regulating and controlling are quite limited. Second, the pressure on deficits and liabilities is high. By the end of 2004, there were still 9 mountain towns and towns that did not completely eliminate deficits and liabilities, accounting for 24% of the county's towns and villages. The consumption deficits and liabilities of mountainous towns and villages totaled more than 7 million yuan. Third, the management supervision and control mechanism is not perfect. There are many loopholes in the internal financial management system of townships.

Lack of effective means of regulation

From the actual situation, townships and towns have weaker effective control over internal, departmental, and village-level organizations, and there is still a big gap between the regulatory effects and regulatory targets. First, the internal control of townships is weak. Some deputies do not obey the leadership of the position, some general cadres do not obey the collective leadership, the subordinate institutional departments can not perform their duties well, human resources are not effectively integrated, and work efficiency is low. Second, it is difficult to regulate the department stations. The county-level departments are in the township and township stations, and the townships and towns are difficult to coordinate. Third, the regulation of village-level organizations is too weak. The implementation of collective decision-making in townships and towns has become more difficult to operate in some specific tasks, such as planning for childbearing work, key project policy treatment, village-level elections, especially village committee elections.

Second, countermeasures and recommendations

In accordance with the requirements of the 16th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, the township government should gradually move toward a limited government, from a management-oriented government to a service-oriented government, and strengthen the functions of public management and public services. To improve and improve the township ruling style and strengthen the township regulation and control, we should adhere to the principle of "doing something and doing something wrong", focusing on standardizing the township public management function, strengthening the township public service capacity, clarifying the township function, perfecting the laws and regulations, and improving the operation. The mechanism will strengthen self-construction and achieve the goal of “small government, big society, big service, and big security”.

Improve the ability to govern

1. Optimize the team structure and improve the teamwork. The first is to appropriately expand the number of positions and reduce the number of leadership positions. The second is a reasonable match. The selection of cadres should pay attention to the complementarity of knowledge, professional matching and personality compatibility.

2. Clarify the division of responsibilities, standardize the discussion, decision, and itinerary. The first is to scientifically define the party and government responsibilities. Adhere to and improve the permanent system of township party congresses, expand intra-party democracy, and firmly establish the leading core position of township party committees. The second is to strengthen the supervision function of the NPC. By exerting the supervision of the work of the People's Congress on the government, and promoting the standard operation of the government's work, it will effectively alleviate the tense pressure of the formation of party and government. The third is to further improve and implement the rules of the township party committee government.

3. Strengthen the construction of cadres and improve the overall quality of cadres. The first is to strengthen education and training. The second is to strengthen supervision and management. The third is to improve and improve the incentive mechanism for cadres.

Transforming township functions

1. Clarify the principle of setting up township functions. The first is the principle of seeking truth from facts. Functions that towns and towns do not have the ability to exercise should be excluded. The second is the principle of reunification of powers. In order to fully perform its functions, it must have the corresponding powers and financial powers. The third is the principle of classification setting.

2. Determine the content of township functions. According to the above principles, township functions are defined as two basic categories and additional functions.

As far as Yongjia County is concerned, mountainous towns and towns should ensure the fulfillment of basic functions. Industrial towns, towns, and tourism resources are relatively rich. Townships can be given additional functions depending on the situation.

3. Ensure that township functions are exercised in place. First, do not "misplace". It is necessary to fully consider the actual affordability of townships and towns, and should not use the "one-vote veto" in the implementation of work. It is necessary to respect the relative independence and independence of towns and villages, mobilize the initiative and enthusiasm of township work, and finally achieve the goal of “pragmatic and efficient”. The second is to not be "absent". We will thoroughly reform the administrative management system of "only on the top not only", and we must do both "only" and "only".

Straighten out the relationship

1. Reasonably set up the station institution. The first is to adjust the decentralization. The second is to streamline and withdraw. The third is an orderly diversion.

2. Strengthen the supervision and management of township and town stations. The first is to establish a regular review system for party representatives and deputies to the people's congress. The second is to establish a system of personnel appointment and dismissal.

3. Improve and improve the communication and coordination mechanism between townships and stations. The first is to establish and improve a notification system for major work issues. The second is to explore the establishment of a coordinated conference system for townships and stations.

Improve rural relations

1. Adhere to the party's leadership in the countryside and establish a virtuous and dynamic village-level organization working mechanism. First, strengthen the construction of the village party branch and enhance the party's influence, cohesiveness and appeal in the countryside. The second is to support and help the village committee to perform its duties according to law, and effectively improve the village committee's self-management, self-education and self-service capabilities. The third is to further standardize the working rules of village-level organizations.

2. Adhere to the leadership and guidance, and build a coordinated and orderly rural linkage pattern. The first is to correctly understand and grasp the connection and difference between leadership and guidance, unify thinking, and form synergy. The second is to actively cultivate and develop rural professional economic cooperation organizations and various social intermediary service organizations. The third is to explore the establishment of an early warning mechanism for rural areas to respond to emergencies and catastrophic events. The fourth is to establish and improve the incentive mechanism for village cadres. The fifth is to establish and improve a long-term service mechanism that connects the people and facilitates the people and the people.

3. Combine the actual situation and do a good job of retreating the village.

Sound financial system

1. Classification establish a scientific and standardized mode of distribution of financial benefits, and increase the available financial resources of township finance.

2. Establish an effective township financial risk prevention mechanism to ensure the smooth operation of township finance.

3. Reform township financial institutions and strengthen the management and supervision of township finance.
