In Friday’s paper, there was a long article by the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection and National Supervisory Commission.

It’s interesting that this was published in the People’s Daily, the day the paper carried the report on the announcement of the theme of the Fifth Plenum of studying certain major issues concerning the persistent advancement of comprehensive and strict Party self-governance.

I left this out yesterday so that I could have the time for a deeper dive into it. Some key takeaways:

  • The article broadly talks about the long-term significance and centrality of Xi Jinping Thought on Party Building for discipline inspection work. It then interprets the core tenets of this thought for the CCDI and NSC’s work. That, in itself, tells us a bit about Xi’s position and control over the system. What’s striking, however, is the glorification of Xi in the article. For instance, it says that the thought is imbued with Xi’s “political wisdom, brilliance of thought, and personal charisma”; it contends that “all the achievements made in discipline inspection and supervision work in the new era” are owed to Xi and his thought; “the Two Establishments are the greatest certainty, the greatest source of confidence, and the greatest guarantee”; and that discipline inspection organs must “align themselves with General Secretary Xi Jinping’s lofty spiritual realm of ‘I will be selfless and will not fail the people’, his strong sense of mission and responsibility of ‘offending a thousand or hundred, but not failing the 1.4 billion’, and his fearless spirit expressed in ‘though there be thousands upon thousands of people, I shall go forward’...”

  • Second, in terms of work, the piece stresses the significance on focussing around the main tasks of the 15th FYP and the desire for greater central control “Supervision must closely revolve around General Secretary Xi Jinping’s important instructions and directives, around implementing the new development philosophy, promoting high-quality development, accelerating the establishment of a new development pattern, and other strategic deployments.”

  • Third, it’s significant how much the article stresses on the role of discipline inspection in maintaining political legitimacy for the Party. This is around anti-corruption and conduct as means to win the hearts of the people. The challenge, of course, is that none of these are new problems; they are structural for a Leninist Party-state system. But the solution that the Party seems to be offering is more of the same and perhaps at greater intensity: For instance, “the Party’s conduct is the Party’s image; it bears on whether people are won or lost, and on the Party’s life and death, survival and extinction”. Discipline inspection workers “must continue to prevent and rectify prominent problems of deviations in views on political achievements, closely monitor leading organs and leading cadres, resolutely correct such prominent problems as inaction stemming from waiting and watching as leadership transitions approach, and, after leadership transitions, the impatient pursuit of quick success by flipping pancakes or engaging in political achievement/vanity projects, and resolutely curb unhealthy practices such as falsifying statistical data.”

  • Fourth, on corruption, the article says that under Xi the entire Party has been carrying out an anti-corruption struggle “unprecedented in history. Its intensity has been greater than ever before, the results are evident for all to see, and it has successfully forged a Chinese path of anti-corruption under the centralized and unified leadership of the Party Central Committee…”; it warns that “corruption is the greatest risk, the greatest threat, and the greatest challenge our Party faces…” In other words, there will be no let up in this regard, with strict punishment on the anvil for “key problems, key sectors, and key targets.”

A great era gives birth to scientific thought; scientific thought guides innovative practice. Since the 18th Party Congress, the Party Central Committee with Comrade Xi Jinping at its core has upheld the principle that the Party must exercise self-governance and govern the Party with comprehensive and strict discipline. Focusing on the major question of the times of what kind of long-term governing Marxist party should be built and how to build such a long-term governing Marxist party, it has put forward a series of new concepts, new ideas, and new strategies, forming Xi Jinping Thought on Party Building. This is the Party-building component of Xi Jinping Thought on Socialism with Chinese Characteristics for a New Era, and is the summary of experience and theoretical sublimation of all of General Secretary Xi Jinping’s practice in leading Party building in the new era. This thought is broad and profound, rich in content, deep in its ideas, and rigorous in its system. The 14 Upholds profoundly grasp the intrinsic relationship between governing the Party, strengthening the Party, and strengthening the country and advancing national rejuvenation. They coordinate the Party’s leadership and Party building, uphold the organic unity of epistemology and methodology, and of the two-point theory and the theory of focusing on the key point (两点论和重点论). They clarify the fundamental principles while guiding practical application, integrating principle and application throughout. Each aspect contains rich theoretical exposition and clear practical requirements, and collectively encapsulates General Secretary Xi Jinping’s new concepts, new ideas, and new strategies on Party building in the new era that are of landmark and guiding significance.

This thought possesses a distinct theoretical character. It embodies firm ideals and convictions, a high degree of historical initiative, a clear problem orientation, a strong sense of mission and responsibility, deep feelings for the people, and a scientific method of thinking. It profoundly elucidates the fundamental question of what the CPC is and what it is to do. It is imbued with General Secretary Xi Jinping’s political wisdom, brilliance of thought, and personal charisma, and displays the political character, value pursuits, and spiritual bearing of contemporary Chinese Communists. This thought has a solid practical foundation and deep theoretical origins: it derives from the scientific theory of Marxism, is rooted in China’s fine traditional culture, and was nurtured in the great practice of comprehensive and strict Party self-governance in the new era; it is a major achievement of our Party’s advancement of theoretical innovation by upholding the ‘Two Integrations’, marking a new height in the understanding of the laws governing the building of a Marxist party. Xi Jinping Thought on Party Building makes a major original contribution to developing the Marxist doctrine of party building, provides the fundamental follow and action guide for deeply advancing the great new project of Party building in the new era, and holds major practical significance and long-term guiding significance for strengthening the Party and strengthening the country.

The discipline inspection and supervision organs were born because of the Party and fight for the Party; they are an important force in advancing the comprehensive and strict self-governance of the Party. All the achievements made in discipline inspection and supervision work in the new era fundamentally lie in General Secretary Xi Jinping’s navigation and helmsmanship, and in the scientific guidance of Xi Jinping Thought on Socialism with Chinese Characteristics for a New Era, and Xi Jinping’s Thought on Party Building in particular. On the new journey, promoting the high-quality development of discipline inspection and supervision work must always uphold the centralized and unified leadership of the Party Central Committee with Comrade Xi Jinping at its core, and uphold the guidance of Xi Jinping Thought on Socialism with Chinese Characteristics for a New Era, especially Xi Jinping Thought on Party Building. Discipline inspection and supervision organs at all levels and the broad ranks of discipline inspection and supervision cadres must more deeply comprehend the decisive significance of the Two Establishments, resolutely achieve the Two Safeguards, completely, accurately, and comprehensively study and implement Xi Jinping Thought on Party Building, profoundly grasp its essence and practical requirements, consciously use it to arm the mind, guide practice, and direct all discipline inspection and supervision work, unswervingly become firm believers in and loyal practitioners of Xi Jinping Thought on Party Building, fulfill with higher standards and more concrete measures the duties entrusted by the Party Constitution and the Constitution, firmly safeguard the Party’s unity and solidarity, firmly defend the Party’s advanced nature and purity, and provide a strong guarantee for comprehensively advancing the building of a strong country and the great cause of national rejuvenation through Chinese-style modernization.

纪检监察机关因党而生、为党而战,是推进全面从严治党的重要力量。新时代纪检监察工作取得的一切成绩,根本在于习近平总书记领航掌舵、在于习近平新时代中国特色社会主义思想特别是习近平党建思想科学指引。新征程上推动纪检监察工作高质量发展,必须始终坚持以习近平同志为核心的党中央集中统一领导,坚持以习近平新时代中国特色社会主义思想特别是习近平党建思想为指导。各级纪检监察机关和广大纪检监察干部要更加深刻领悟“两个确立”的决定性意义、坚决做到“两个维护”,完整、准确、全面学习贯彻习近平党建思想,深刻把握其精髓要义和实践要求,自觉用以武装头脑、指导实践、统领纪检监察一切工作,矢志不渝做习近平党建思想的坚定信仰者、忠实实践者,以更高标准、更实举措履行好党章和宪法赋予的职责,坚定维护党的团结统一,坚定捍卫党的先进性纯洁性,为以中国式现代化全面推进强国建设、民族复兴伟业提供坚强保障。

After this, the article makes 10 points:

First, focus on the Two Safeguards to strengthen political oversight, ensuring the Party’s overall leadership and the centralized, unified leadership of the Party Central Committee. Xi Jinping Thought on Party Building distinctly puts forward that ‘safeguarding/upholding the Party’s leadership is the most essential feature of socialism with Chinese characteristics,’ stresses ‘safeguarding/upholding the centralized, unified leadership of the Party Central Committee,’ and requires ‘taking the Party’s political building as the overarching principle’, so as to ensure that the whole Party stays highly consistent with the Party Central Committee with Comrade Xi Jinping at its core in political stance, political direction, political principles, and political path. History and practice have fully proved that the Party’s leadership is the fundamental foundation and lifeline of the Party and the country, and is what the interests and destiny of the people of all ethnic groups throughout the country depend upon; that upholding the centralized, unified leadership of the Party Central Committee is the highest principle of the Party’s leadership; and that the Two Establishments are the greatest certainty, the greatest source of confidence, and the greatest guarantee with which we respond to all uncertainties—on this question, at any time and under any circumstances, we must be clear-cut in our banner and firm in our stance. The discipline inspection and supervision organs are the Party’s loyal guardians and shoulder major missions and responsibilities in achieving the Two Safeguards. We must always resolutely safeguard/uphold the core position of General Secretary Xi Jinping in the Party Central Committee and in the whole Party, resolutely safeguard/uphold the authority and the centralized, unified leadership of the Party Central Committee with Comrade Xi Jinping at its core, earnestly implement the several regulations on strengthening and safeguarding the centralized, unified leadership of the Party Central Committee, strictly carry out the system of requesting instructions and reporting, and, through concrete action, embody loyalty to the Party, obedience to the Party’s command, and the fulfillment of duty for the Party. We must firmly grasp political oversight and deepen political inspection tours, drive Party organizations at all levels and Party members and cadres to continually raise their political judgment, political comprehension, and political execution, enhance the Four Consciousnesses, strengthen the Four Self-confidences, and achieve the Two Safeguards, frequently benchmark and check against the standard, correct deviations in a timely manner, and ensure that what the Party Central Committee advocates is resolutely responded to, what the Party Central Committee decides is resolutely carried out, and what the Party Central Committee forbids is resolutely not done. Supervision must closely revolve around General Secretary Xi Jinping’s important instructions and directives, around implementing the new development philosophy, promoting high-quality development, accelerating the establishment of a new development pattern, and other strategic deployments, strengthening supervision that is concrete, precise, and regularized, so as to ensure that the Party Central Committee’s major decisions and deployments are implemented fully and without discount. Political discipline and political rules must be strictly enforced, efforts must be focused on resolving the problem of the Seven Haves (七个有之), the Five Isms (五个主义) must be seriously rectified and corrected, the ‘two-faced people’ (两面人) who harbour divided loyalties and whose words and actions are inconsistent must be resolutely eliminated, political hidden dangers must be promptly removed, and the Party’s unity and solidarity must be consolidated. 一、聚焦“两个维护”强化政治监督,确保党的全面领导和党中央集中统一领导。习近平党建思想鲜明提出“坚持党的领导是中国特色社会主义最本质的特征”,强调“坚持党中央集中统一领导”,要求“坚持以党的政治建设为统领”,确保全党在政治立场、政治方向、政治原则、政治道路上同以习近平同志为核心的党中央保持高度一致。历史和实践充分证明,党的领导是党和国家的根本所在、命脉所在,是全国各族人民的利益所系、命运所系,坚持党中央集中统一领导是党的领导的最高原则,“两个确立”是我们应对一切不确定性的最大确定性、最大底气、最大保证,在这个问题上任何时候任何情况下都必须旗帜鲜明、立场坚定。纪检监察机关是党的忠诚卫士,在“两个维护”上肩负重大使命责任。要始终坚决维护习近平总书记党中央的核心、全党的核心地位,坚决维护以习近平同志为核心的党中央权威和集中统一领导,认真贯彻加强和维护党中央集中统一领导的若干规定,严格执行请示报告制度,以实际行动体现对党忠诚、听党指挥、为党尽责。要抓实政治监督、深化政治巡视,推动各级党组织和党员、干部不断提高政治判断力、政治领悟力、政治执行力,增强“四个意识”、坚定“四个自信”、做到“两个维护”,时常对标对表,及时校正偏差,做到党中央提倡的坚决响应,党中央决定的坚决照办,党中央禁止的坚决不做。要紧紧围绕习近平总书记重要指示批示,围绕贯彻新发展理念、推动高质量发展、加快构建新发展格局等战略部署,加强具体化、精准化、常态化监督,确保党中央重大决策部署不折不扣落到实处。要严明政治纪律和政治规矩,着力解决“七个有之”问题,严肃纠治“五个主义”,坚决清除心怀二志、言行不一的“两面人”,及时消除政治隐患,巩固党的团结统一.

Second, strengthen theoretical armament with the Party’s innovative theory, and always guarantee the correct direction of discipline inspection and supervision work. Xi Jinping’s Thought on Party Building clearly puts forward ‘upholding using the Party’s innovative theory to gather hearts and forge souls’ and ‘upholding the tempering of a strong Party spirit’, stresses attaching importance to building the Party ideologically and strengthening the Party through theory, and drives the whole Party to forge its soul through study, increase its wisdom through study, rectify its conduct through study, and promote its work through study; it defines the fundamental task of the Party’s ideological building, embodies the truth power of Marxism, and provides a powerful impetus to keeping the political direction on track, discerning matters of right and wrong, and striving and struggling with unswerving resolve. The more thorough the theoretical armament, the firmer the ideals and convictions, the deeper the ideological understanding, and the more conscious the practical action. Xi Jinping Thought on Party Building innovates while upholding integrity and develops while inheriting tradition. It comprehensively and profoundly explains the highest principle, strategic guideline, value pursuit, work layout, and methods and paths of Party building in the new era. It is a complete theoretical system that embodies the characteristics of the times, grasps objective laws, and is rich in creativity; it comprehensively and profoundly clarifies the highest principle, strategic guidelines, value pursuit, work layout, and methods and paths of Party building in the new era, and is a complete theoretical system that embodies the character of the times, grasps regularity, and is rich in creativity.

Discipline inspection and supervision organs must uphold the integration of study, reflection, and application, and the unity of knowledge, belief, and action. We must take the lead and set an example in studying and implementing Xi Jinping Thought on Party Building, and consciously implement it throughout the entire process and in every aspect of discipline inspection and supervision work. We must consciously regard Xi Jinping Thought on Party Building as a required course and a regular course in study and training, persist in reading the original works, studying the original texts, and comprehending the original principles, deeply understand the Marxist worldview and methodology embodied in this thought, master the standpoints, viewpoints, and methods that run through it, and resolve the fundamental issue of worldview, outlook on life, and values. We must regard tempering Party spirit as a lifelong task, be adept at drawing nourishment for Party spirit from the Party’s innovative theory, pay attention to tempering political character, accumulating political experience, and enhancing political sensitivity in the great furnace of political life within the Party, and continuously strengthen ideals and convictions, forge unwavering loyalty to the Party, cultivate deep feelings for the people, refine moral character, and maintain integrity and incorruptibility. We must strengthen systematic research, theoretical exposition, and popular dissemination, explaining its scientific system, rich connotations, essential substance, and practical requirements; tell well the stories of comprehensively governing the Party with strict discipline in the new era and of combating corruption; and promote the Party’s innovative theory to take deeper root in the hearts of the people. We must uphold applying what is learned and the unity of knowledge and action, consciously combine the study and implementation of Xi Jinping Thought on Party Building with all work relating to improving conduct, enforcing discipline, and combating corruption, consciously seek from it concepts, methods, and answers, further strengthen strategic thinking, historical thinking, dialectical thinking, systems thinking, innovative thinking, law-based thinking, and bottom-line thinking, and make work ideas and measures more scientific, more rigorous, and more effective.

二、加强党的创新理论武装,始终保证纪检监察工作正确方向。习近平党建思想鲜明提出“坚持用党的创新理论凝心铸魂”“坚持锤炼坚强党性”,强调注重思想建党、理论强党,推动全党以学铸魂、以学增智、以学正风、以学促干,明确了党的思想建设的根本任务,体现了马克思主义的真理力量,为我们把准政治方向、明辨大是大非、矢志拼搏奋斗提供了强大动力。理论武装越彻底,理想信念就越坚定,思想认识就越深刻,实践行动就越自觉。习近平党建思想在守正中创新、在继承中发展,全面深刻阐明新时代党的建设的最高原则、战略方针、价值追求、工作布局、方法路径,是体现时代性、把握规律性、富于创造性的完备理论体系。纪检监察机关要坚持学思用贯通、知信行统一,在学习贯彻习近平党建思想上带好头、作表率,自觉贯彻落实到纪检监察工作全过程各方面。要自觉把习近平党建思想作为学习培训的必修课常修课,坚持读原著、学原文、悟原理,深刻领悟这一思想所体现的马克思主义世界观和方法论,掌握贯穿其中的立场观点方法,解决好世界观、人生观、价值观这个总开关问题。要把锤炼党性作为终身课题,善于从党的创新理论中汲取党性滋养,注重在党内政治生活的大熔炉中锤炼政治品格、积累政治经验、增强政治敏锐性,不断坚定理想信念、铸牢对党忠诚、厚植为民情怀、纯正道德品质、保持清正廉洁。要加强体系化研究、学理化阐释、大众化传播,阐明其科学体系、丰富内涵、精神实质、实践要求,讲好新时代全面从严治党故事、反腐败故事,推动党的创新理论更加深入人心。要坚持学以致用、知行合一,自觉把学习贯彻习近平党建思想同正风肃纪反腐各项工作结合起来,自觉从中找理念、找方法、找答案,进一步增强战略思维、历史思维、辩证思维、系统思维、创新思维、法治思维、底线思维,把工作思路举措搞得更加科学、更加严密、更加有效.

Third, the sense of mission and responsibility around the central task and the overall situation, and persistently advance comprehensive and strict Party self-governance. Xi Jinping Thought on Party Building clearly puts forward ‘upholding comprehensive and strict Party self-governance’, clarifying the strategic guideline for Party building in the new era.

Since the 18th Party Congress, General Secretary Xi Jinping has, basing himself on our Party’s new historical positioning of governance in the new era, with the broad vision of surveying the rise and fall of political parties across the world, and taking the historical cyclical pattern of order and chaos, rise and decline as a mirror—has incorporated comprehensive and strict Party self-governance into the Four-Pronged Comprehensive Strategy, and profoundly clarified the decisive role of the great project of Party building among the Four Greats (四个伟大); this embodies the historical initiative of grasping the general trend of historical development and leading the way in opening up bright prospects for the development of the Party and the country, and embodies a high degree of responsibility toward the Party, the country, the nation, the people, and history.

Comprehensive and strict Party self-governance is the distinctive theme of Party building in the new era. It is imperative to uphold a strict tone, strict measures, and a strict atmosphere over a long term, and through the Party never changing its nature ensure that the red country never changes its colour.

The discipline inspection and supervision organs must comprehend and grasp Xi Jinping Thought on Party Building within the vivid practice of our Party’s governance of the country and its management and governance of the Party in the new era, consciously find the right positioning of their duties within the overall situation of the cause of the Party and the state and the overall picture of comprehensive and strict Party self-governance, take the Party’s original aspiration as their own heart and the Party’s mission as their life, focus all their wisdom and strength on realizing the Party’s central task, and clear obstacles and provide escort for realizing the goals and tasks of the 15th FYP period.

We must uphold a problem-oriented approach, deeply recognize that China’s development has entered a period in which strategic opportunities and risks and challenges coexist, with increasing uncertain and unpredictable factors; recognize that the Four Tests and Four Dangers facing the Party are long-term, complex, and severe; always maintain clarity and resolve in addressing the unique challenges of governing a large Party; simultaneously strengthen Party spirit, Party conduct, and Party discipline; integrate efforts to improve conduct, enforce discipline, and combat corruption; focus on resolving the outstanding problems most strongly reflected by the people and posing the greatest threat to the Party’s governing foundation; and comprehensively advance the Party’s self-purification, self-improvement, self-renewal, and self-enhancement.

We must implement the overall requirements for Party building in the new era, base themselves on their functions and responsibilities, strengthen systems thinking, and, in accordance with the requirements of comprehensive coverage of content, full coverage of targets, full-chain responsibilities, and full integration of institutions, promote the improvement of the organizational system, education system, supervision system, institutional system, and responsibility system for comprehensive and rigorous Party self-governance, so that they possess complete elements, comprehensive functions, scientific norms, and efficient operation.

三、围绕中心大局强化使命担当,持之以恒推进全面从严治党。习近平党建思想鲜明提出“坚持全面从严治党”,明确了新时代党的建设的战略方针。党的十八大以来,习近平总书记立足新时代我们党执政新的历史方位,以放眼世界政党兴衰的宏阔视野,以治乱兴衰历史周期率为镜鉴,把全面从严治党纳入“四个全面”战略布局,深刻阐明伟大工程在“四个伟大”中的决定性作用,体现了把握历史发展大势、引领开创党和国家发展光明前景的历史主动,体现了对党、对国家、对民族、对人民、对历史的高度负责。全面从严治党是新时代党的建设的鲜明主题,必须把严的基调、严的措施、严的氛围长期坚持下去,以党的永不变质确保红色江山永不变色。纪检监察机关要把习近平党建思想放在新时代我们党治国理政和管党治党的生动实践中来体悟把握,自觉在党和国家事业大局、全面从严治党全局中找准职责定位,以党的初心为本心、以党的使命为生命,把全部智慧和力量凝聚到实现党的中心任务上来,为实现“十五五”时期目标任务清障护航。要坚持问题导向,深刻认识我国发展进入战略机遇和风险挑战并存、不确定难预料因素增多的时期,党面临的“四大考验”“四种危险”是长期的、复杂的、严峻的,时刻保持解决大党独有难题的清醒和坚定,党性党风党纪一起抓,正风肃纪反腐相贯通,着力解决人民群众反映最强烈、对党的执政基础威胁最大的突出问题,全面推进党的自我净化、自我完善、自我革新、自我提高。要贯彻落实新时代党的建设总要求,立足职能职责,强化系统思维,按照内容全涵盖、对象全覆盖、责任全链条、制度全贯通要求,推动健全全面从严治党组织体系、教育体系、监管体系、制度体系、责任体系,做到要素齐全、功能完备、科学规范、运行高效.

Fourth, persevere in implementing the spirit of the Central Eight-Point Regulations, and promote the normalization and long-term institutionalization of work style building. Xi Jinping Thought on Party Building clearly puts forward ‘upholding the promotion of the normalization and long-term institutionalization of work style building’, emphasising that this is an effective way to maintain the Party’s flesh-and-blood ties with the people.

The Party’s conduct is the Party’s image; it bears on whether people are won or lost, and on the Party’s life and death, survival and extinction. The central Eight-Point Regulation is the Party Central Committee’s act of ‘moving the pole to establish trust’, and a long-term effective iron rule and hard yardstick. General Secretary Xi Jinping pointed out that there is no shortcut to implementing the spirit of the central Eight-Point Regulation—the key lies in the two words ‘regular’ and ‘long-term’: if they are not grasped regularly, relapses easily occur; if they are not grasped over the long term, conscious habits are hard to form.

Discipline inspection and supervision organs bear the important responsibility of assisting Party committees in strengthening Party conduct. We must make sustained and long-term efforts and polish the ‘golden business card’ of the Central Eight-Point Regulations to make it shine even brighter. We must strictly and earnestly rectify the Four Winds, persist in integrating work style building into daily work and making it a regular undertaking, deeply rectify and intensively remediate recurrent chronic ills such as eating and drinking in violation of regulations, accurately identify and promptly deal with the trends and manifestations of hidden and mutated forms, and seriously investigate and deal with and publicly report typical cases of those who do not restrain themselves or stop their hands and who flout discipline against the wind, thereby forming a powerful deterrent.

We must continue to prevent and rectify prominent problems of deviations in views on political achievements, closely monitor leading organs and leading cadres, resolutely correct such prominent problems as inaction stemming from waiting and watching as leadership transitions approach, and, after leadership transitions, the impatient pursuit of quick success by flipping pancakes or engaging in political achievement/vanity projects, and resolutely curb unhealthy practices such as falsifying statistical data. We must improve the long-term mechanism for conduct building, thoroughly implement the Opinions on Persevering in Implementing the Spirit of the Central Eight-Point Regulations and Promoting the Normalization and Long-term Institutionalization of Work Style Building, take regular study and education as the foundation, strengthen typical-case education from both positive and negative angles, take the joint investigation and joint treatment of misconduct and corruption as the means, drive investigation and treatment as one and rectifying and cultivating in tandem, resolutely break down privilege thinking and privilege behaviour, carry forward the Party’s glorious traditions and fine conduct, and prompt Party members and cadres to keep firmly in mind the ‘Three Musts’ and practice the ‘Three Stricts and Three Earnests’, so as to lead social conduct and popular morality with fine Party conduct.”

四、锲而不舍落实中央八项规定精神,推进作风建设常态化长效化。习近平党建思想鲜明提出“坚持推进作风建设常态化长效化”,强调这是保持党同人民群众血肉联系的有效途径。党的作风就是党的形象,关系人心向背,关系党的生死存亡,中央八项规定是党中央徙木立信之举,是长期有效的铁规矩、硬杠杠。习近平总书记指出,落实中央八项规定精神没有捷径,关键就在常、长二字,不经常抓容易出现反复,不长期抓难以形成自觉。纪检监察机关肩负协助党的委员会加强党风建设的重要职责,必须在常态长效上下功夫,把中央八项规定“金色名片”擦得更亮。要从严从实纠治“四风”,坚持把作风建设融入日常、抓在经常,对反复发作的违规吃喝等顽疾深入纠治、集中整治,对隐形变异的动向表现准确识别、及时处置,对不收敛不收手、顶风违纪的典型案件严肃查处、公开通报,形成强力震慑。要持续防范和纠治政绩观偏差突出问题,紧盯领导机关和领导干部,坚决纠治临近换届等待观望不作为,换届后急功近利“翻烧饼”、搞“政绩工程”等突出问题,狠刹统计造假等不正之风。要完善作风建设长效机制,深入贯彻关于锲而不舍落实中央八项规定精神推进作风建设常态化长效化的意见,以经常性学习教育为基础,强化正反两方面典型教育,以风腐同查同治为抓手,推动查治一体、纠树并举,坚决破除特权思想、特权行为,弘扬党的光荣传统和优良作风,促进党员、干部牢记“三个务必”、践行“三严三实”,以优良党风引领社风民风。

Fifth, comprehensively strengthen Party discipline building, and give full play to discipline’s roles of education and restraint and safeguarding and motivation. Xi Jinping Thought on Party Building clearly puts forward ‘upholding the governance of the entire Party with strict discipline’, emphasizing that this is the fundamental measure for comprehensive and strict Party self-governance.

Our Party is a Marxist party organized on the basis of revolutionary ideals and iron discipline; strict discipline is the Party’s fine tradition and political advantage. Discipline is the ‘measuring stick’ for managing and governing the Party, and also the standard and the guide by which Party members and cadres restrain their own conduct. The more complex the situation the Party faces and the more arduous the tasks it shoulders, the more it must strengthen discipline-building. The discipline inspection and supervision organs, as organs of oversight and of enforcing discipline and law, have an unshirkable responsibility in safeguarding the Party’s discipline. We must uphold combining regular education with concentrated education, provide instruction according to different levels and categories with precision, use the people and events around them as educational examples, and encourage Party members and cadres to engrave compliance with rules and discipline in their hearts. We must uphold the principle of putting discipline before everything else, adhere to the principle that Party discipline is stricter than state law, that discipline comes before the law, and that discipline enforcement and law enforcement are integrated, achieve that violations of discipline are surely investigated and enforcement of discipline is surely strict, earnestly safeguard the rigidity and seriousness of discipline, prevent the ‘broken-window effect’, and make discipline truly become an electrified high-voltage line. We must focus on strengthening political discipline and organizational discipline, thereby driving comprehensive and uncompromising strictness in integrity discipline, mass discipline, work discipline, and life discipline, and enhancing the political character, contemporary relevance, and targeted nature of discipline building. We must adhere to seeking truth from facts, strictly follow Party rules, Party discipline, and the law, accurately apply the Four Forms, correctly grasp policies and strategies, neither wrong the innocent nor letting the guilty escape, act objectively and impartially, and achieve the organic unity of political effects, disciplinary and legal effects, and social effects. We must uphold the principle of ‘learning from past mistakes to avoid future ones and curing the sickness to save the patient’, carry out thorough and meticulous ideological and political work, emphasize the integration of discipline, law, sentiment, and reason, seriously investigate and punish acts of false accusation and framing, deepen work to clear names and restore reputations, and guide Party members and cadres to forge ahead with determination and act proactively on the premise of observing rules and discipline.

五、全面加强党的纪律建设,综合发挥纪律教育约束、保障激励作用。习近平党建思想鲜明提出“坚持用严明的纪律管全党治全党”,强调这是全面从严治党的治本之策。我们党是靠革命理想和铁的纪律组织起来的马克思主义政党,纪律严明是党的优良传统和政治优势。纪律是管党治党的“戒尺”,也是党员、干部约束自身行为的标准和遵循。党面临的形势越复杂、肩负的任务越艰巨,越要加强纪律建设。纪检监察机关作为监督执纪执法机关,在维护党的纪律上责无旁贷。要坚持经常性教育与集中性教育相结合,分层分类、精准施教,用身边人身边事开展教育,促进党员、干部把遵规守纪刻印在心。坚持把纪律挺在前面,坚持纪严于法、纪在法前、执纪执法贯通,做到执纪必严、违纪必究,切实维护纪律刚性、严肃性,防止“破窗效应”,使纪律真正成为带电的高压线。重点强化政治纪律和组织纪律,带动廉洁纪律、群众纪律、工作纪律、生活纪律全面从严、一严到底,提高纪律建设的政治性、时代性、针对性。坚持实事求是、严格依规依纪依法,准确运用“四种形态”,正确把握政策策略,毋枉毋纵、客观公正,实现政治效果、纪法效果、社会效果有机统一。坚持惩前毖后、治病救人,做好深入细致的思想政治工作,注重纪法情理贯通融合,对诬告陷害行为严肃查处,深化澄清正名工作,引导党员、干部在遵规守纪前提下锐意进取、积极作为.

“Sixth, in an integrated way not daring to be corrupt, not being able to be corrupt, and not wanting to be corrupt, and firmly follow well the path of anti-corruption with Chinese characteristics. Xi Jinping Thought on Party Building clearly puts forward ‘upholding in an integrated manner not daring to be corrupt, not being able to be corrupt, and not wanting to be corrupt’, emphasising that this is an important strategy of comprehensive and strict Party self-governance and a basic guideline of the anti-corruption struggle. Since the 18th Party Congress, the Party Central Committee with Comrade Xi Jinping at its core has led the whole Party in carrying out an unprecedented anti-corruption struggle. The intensity has been unprecedented, the results are evident for all to see, and it has successfully forged a Chinese path of anti-corruption under the centralized and unified leadership of the Party Central Committee, one that addresses both the symptoms and the root causes and integrally advances advances in an integrated way not daring, not being able, and not wanting to be corrupt.

Since the 18th National Congress of the Party, the Party Central Committee with Comrade Xi Jinping at its core has led the entire Party in carrying out an anti-corruption struggle unprecedented in history. Its intensity has been greater than ever before, the results are evident for all to see, and it has successfully forged a Chinese path of anti-corruption under the centralized and unified leadership of the Party Central Committee, one that addresses both the symptoms and the root causes and integrally advances the efforts to make officials not dare to be corrupt, not be able to be corrupt, and not want to be corrupt.

Corruption is the greatest risk, the greatest threat, and the greatest challenge our Party faces; the fight against corruption is a major struggle that we cannot afford to lose and absolutely must not lose. At present, the situation of the anti-corruption struggle remains severe and complex, and the task of rooting out the soil and conditions that breed corruption remains arduous and heavy; we must maintain the sobriety and firmness that the fight against corruption is forever on the road, combat corruption and punish evil with a zero-tolerance attitude, deepen the addressing of both symptoms and root causes and systematic treatment, and resolutely fight well the tough battle, the protracted battle, and the total battle of the anti-corruption struggle.

General Secretary Xi Jinping profoundly pointed out that advancing in an integrated way not daring, not being able, and not wanting to be corrupt requires the three exerting force simultaneously, exerting force in the same direction, and exerting force in an integrated manner, fusing into one the powerful deterrent effectiveness of not daring to be corrupt, the rigid institutional constraints of not being able to be corrupt, and the ideological education advantage of not wanting to be corrupt.

We must adhere to strict punishment, focusing on key problems, key sectors, and key targets, thoroughly investigating new forms of corruption and hidden corruption, persist in investigating both bribe-taking and bribe-giving, intensify efforts in the governance of cross-border corruption and in pursuing fugitives and recovering illicit assets, and ensure that where there is corruption it must be opposed, where there is graft it must be punished, and that evil is eradicated completely. We must adhere to precise governance, effectively use cases to promote rectification and governance, and establish a closed-loop mechanism linking supervision, case handling, rectification, and governance. With intra-Party supervision as the leading force, we must promote the integration and coordination of all forms of supervision, and improve a supervision system that is under the Party’s unified leadership, provides comprehensive coverage, and is authoritative and highly efficient. We must adhere to effective prevention, emphasize targeted ‘drip irrigation’, enhance the relevance and effectiveness of building a culture of integrity in the new era, pay attention to the building of family, family education, and family values, and foster a sound social ethos of honouring integrity and rejecting corruption. We must adhere to integrated implementation, improve the anti-corruption work mechanism and the responsibility implementation mechanism, improve the normalized coordination and cooperation mechanism between discipline inspection and supervision organs and relevant departments under the unified leadership of Party committees, and promote integrated governance through whole-chain coordination. We must strengthen technology empowerment, accelerate the building of a digital discipline inspection and supervision system, emphasize the use of big data and other means to improve the effectiveness of supervision, discipline enforcement, and law enforcement, and promptly discover, accurately identify, and effectively address all types of corruption problems.

六、一体推进不敢腐不能腐不想腐,坚定走好中国特色反腐败之路。习近平党建思想鲜明提出“坚持一体推进不敢腐不能腐不想腐”,强调这是全面从严治党的重要方略和反腐败斗争的基本方针。党的十八大以来,以习近平同志为核心的党中央带领全党开展史无前例的反腐败斗争,力度之大前所未有,成效有目共睹,成功走出一条在党中央集中统一领导下,标本兼治、一体推进不敢腐不能腐不想腐的中国特色反腐败之路。腐败是我们党面临的最大风险、最大威胁、最大挑战,反腐败是一场输不起也决不能输的重大斗争。当前,反腐败斗争形势仍然严峻复杂,铲除腐败滋生土壤和条件任务仍然艰巨繁重,必须保持反腐败永远在路上的清醒坚定,以零容忍态度反腐惩恶,深化标本兼治、系统施治,坚决打好反腐败斗争攻坚战持久战总体战。习近平总书记深刻指出,一体推进不敢腐、不能腐、不想腐,必须三者同时发力、同向发力、综合发力,把不敢腐的强大震慑效能、不能腐的刚性制度约束、不想腐的思想教育优势融于一体。要坚持从严惩,对重点问题、重点领域、重点对象着重抓、着力查,深挖细查新型腐败和隐性腐败,坚持受贿行贿一起查,加大跨境腐败治理和追逃追赃力度,做到有腐必反、有贪必肃、除恶务尽。坚持精准治,抓实以案促改促治,形成监督、办案、整改、治理的闭环机制;以党内监督为主导,推动各类监督贯通协调,健全党统一领导、全面覆盖、权威高效的监督体系。坚持有效防,突出精准滴灌,增强新时代廉洁文化建设针对性有效性,注重家庭家教家风建设,营造崇廉拒腐的良好风尚。坚持一体抓,完善反腐败工作机制和责任落实机制,健全党委统一领导下纪检监察机关与各有关部门常态化协作配合机制,以全链条协作促进一体化治理。强化科技赋能,加快推进数字纪检监察体系建设,注重运用大数据等手段提高监督执纪执法效能,及时发现、准确识别、有效治理各类腐败问题.

Seventh, uphold enforcing discipline and law for the people, and continue to deepen the rectification of unhealthy tendencies and corruption problems around the masses. Xi Jinping Thought on Party Building always holds fast to the Party’s purpose, stance, and value orientation, clearly putting forward ‘upholding the original aspiration and keeping the mission firmly in mind’. It profoundly answers ‘who am I, whom am I for, on whom do I rely?’, taking the realization of the people’s yearning for a better life as the starting point and the ultimate goal of all work, fully manifesting the fundamental stance of putting the people first. Our Party’s powerful fight against corruption, its rectification of the Four Winds and cultivation of new, sound conduct, are in order to win the hearts of the Party and of the people. Only by always keeping firmly in mind that the country is the people and the people are the country, and by continuing to drive comprehensive and strict Party self-governance to extend to the primary level, can we forever obtain the wholehearted support of the people and consolidate the Party’s foundation of governance.

The discipline inspection and supervision organs must consciously practice the people-centered development philosophy and a correct view of performance and achievement, follow well the Party’s mass line in the new era, persist in resolutely guarding against and correcting whatever the people oppose and whatever the people detest, always take bringing benefit to the people as the greatest performance and achievement, and always take whether the people support it or not, approve of it or not, are happy with it or not, and agree to it or not as the fundamental standard for measuring the gains and losses of all work. We must persist in fighting for the people and ensuring that the masses can feel the results, further deepen concentrated rectification of unhealthy practices and corruption affecting the people, and strive to achieve comprehensive results in reshaping professional and sectoral conduct, improving grassroots governance, and benefiting the people. We must give prominence to rectifying chronic ills in people’s livelihood, coordinate the advancement of nationwide rectification projects and major practical initiatives concerning people’s livelihoods, resolutely punish ‘fly-like greed and ant-like corruption’, and work hard to resolve the urgent difficulties and worries that the masses are anxious and eager about. We must, with a long-term view, improve institutions and mechanisms, earnestly sum up experience and practices, continually raise the capacity and level of primary-level governance, and continue to enhance the people’s sense of gain, sense of happiness, and sense of security.

七、坚持执纪执法为民,持续深化整治群众身边不正之风和腐败问题。习近平党建思想始终坚守党的宗旨立场和价值取向,鲜明提出“坚持不忘初心、牢记使命”,深刻回答“我是谁、为了谁、依靠谁”,把实现人民群众对美好生活的向往作为一切工作的出发点和落脚点,充分彰显了人民至上的根本立场。我们党强力反腐,纠“四风”树新风,是为了赢得党心民心。只有始终牢记江山就是人民、人民就是江山,持续推动全面从严治党向基层延伸,才能永远得到人民群众衷心拥护、巩固党的执政根基。纪检监察机关要自觉践行以人民为中心的发展思想和正确政绩观,走好新时代党的群众路线,坚持人民群众反对什么、痛恨什么,就坚决防范和纠正什么,始终把为民造福作为最大政绩,始终把人民拥护不拥护、赞成不赞成、高兴不高兴、答应不答应作为衡量一切工作得失的根本标准。坚持为人民而战、让群众有感,进一步深化群众身边不正之风和腐败问题集中整治,力争取得行风重塑、基层善治、群众受益的综合性成果。突出重点整治民生顽疾,统筹推进全国性整治项目和重大民生实事,坚决惩治“蝇贪蚁腐”,着力解决群众急难愁盼问题。着眼长远健全制度机制,认真总结经验做法,不断提升基层治理能力和水平,持续增强人民群众的获得感、幸福感、安全感.

Eighth, the governance of power through institutions and the exercise of power in accordance with regulations, and more scientifically and effectively keep power confined within the cage of institutions. Xi Jinping Thought on Party Building clearly puts forward ‘upholding governing the Party through institutions and governing the Party according to regulations’, requiring the continuous improvement of the system of intra-Party regulations and institutions, enhancement of the implementation of institutions, and profoundly explaining the long-term and fundamental strategy of comprehensive and strict Party self-governance. Comprehensive and strict Party self-governance is strongly political and principled, and must be regulated by a scientific and complete set of institutions.

The essence of corruption is the abuse of power. Preventing and combating corruption requires strengthening the regulation and supervision of the allocation and operation of power, improving institutional mechanisms that unify the authorization, exercise, and restriction of power, and that are clear, transparent, and traceable, so as to ensure that power always operates on the correct track.

On the one hand, we must improve institutional provisions and prevent ‘using a cattle pen to confine a cat’ (牛栏关猫). The system for supervising power must be improved by focusing on key powers such as policy formulation, approval and regulation, and law enforcement and the administration of justice, strictly defining responsibilities and authority, and standardizing work procedures. We must integrally perform their responsibilities for formulating intra-Party regulations and supervisory regulations, combine the requirements of the Party Central Committee, the expectations of the people, practical needs, and fresh experience, promptly elevate effective practices and successful experience into institutional norms, and, in keeping with the times, establish, revise, abolish, and interpret institutions, so that institutional development corresponds to the needs of governing the Party and managing the Party and is coordinated with all aspects of Party building.

On the other hand, rigid constraints must be strengthened to prevent ‘using a paper cage to confine a tiger’ (纸笼禁虎). We must strengthen publicity and education on laws, regulations, and institutions, guide Party members and cadres to understand laws and discipline, understand rules, and know awe, enabling them to recognize that regulations and institutions are not only a ‘tightening spell’ (紧箍咒) but also a ‘protective talisman’ (护身符), and consciously oppose and resist hidden rules. We must strengthen supervision and inspection of the implementation of key laws, regulations, and institutions, seriously investigate and deal with those who ‘run red lights’ and ‘climb over barriers’, resolutely pursue the leadership responsibility of those who bear leadership responsibility, and ensure that institutions are fully implemented.

八、强化制度治权、依规用权,更加科学有效地把权力关进制度笼子。习近平党建思想鲜明提出“坚持制度治党、依规治党”,要求不断完善党内法规制度体系,提高制度执行力,深刻阐明全面从严治党的长远和根本之策。全面从严治党政治性、原则性强,必须有一套科学完备的制度来规范。腐败的本质是权力滥用。防治腐败问题必须加强对权力配置、运行的规范和监督,健全授权用权制权相统一、清晰透明可追溯的制度机制,保证权力始终在正确轨道上运行。一方面,要完善制度规定,防止“牛栏关猫”。健全权力监督制度,抓住政策制定、审批监管、执法司法等关键权力,严格职责权限、规范工作程序。一体履行党内法规和监察法规制定职责,把党中央要求、群众期盼、实际需要、新鲜经验结合起来,及时将行之有效的好做法好经验上升为制度规范,与时俱进立改废释,使制度建设与管党治党需要相适应、与党的各项建设相配套。另一方面,要增强刚性约束,防止“纸笼禁虎”。加强法规制度宣传教育,引导党员、干部懂法纪、明规矩、知敬畏,认识到法规制度既是“紧箍咒”,更是“护身符”,自觉反对和抵制潜规则。加强重点法规制度执行情况的监督检查,对“闯红灯”“翻栅栏”的严肃查处,对负领导责任的坚决追究,确保制度执行到位.

Ninth, earnestly perform the responsibility for supervision and the duty to assist, and promote the improvement of the responsibility system for comprehensive and strict Party self-governance. Xi Jinping Thought on Party Building clearly puts forward ‘upholding the implementation of the political responsibility for governing the Party and managing the Party,’ emphasising that the responsibility for governing the Party and managing the Party is the most fundamental political responsibility. It clarifies the ‘bull’s nose’ that must be firmly grasped in comprehensive and strict Party self-governance, providing powerful guidance for Party organizations at all levels and the broad ranks of Party members and cadres to know their responsibilities, undertake their responsibilities, and fulfill their responsibilities.

The responsibility for managing and governing the Party includes primary responsibility, oversight responsibility, the responsibility of the ‘first responsible person’, ‘one post, dual responsibilities’, and so on, which form a complete chain of responsibility; we must improve a responsibility system with clear subjects and clear requirements.

The discipline inspection and supervision organs, as the organs dedicated to intra-Party oversight and state supervision, must consciously align themselves with General Secretary Xi Jinping’s lofty spiritual realm of ‘I will be selfless and will not fail the people’, his strong sense of mission and responsibility of ‘offending a thousand or hundred, but not failing the 1.4 billion’, and his fearless spirit expressed in ‘though there be thousands upon thousands of people, I shall go forward’; be selfless and fearless, dare to struggle, go through fire and water for the interests of the Party and the people without hesitation, and unswervingly carry comprehensive and strict Party self-governance and the anti-corruption struggle through to the end.

We must resolutely shoulder the supervisory responsibility, earnestly perform their duties of supervision, discipline enforcement, and accountability, as well as supervision, investigation, and disposition, continuously strengthen disciplinary supervision, supervisory oversight, resident-office supervision, and inspection supervision, and ensure that they neither fail to perform their duties nor exceed their authority. We must earnestly assist the Party committees in advancing comprehensive and strict Party self-governance, urge the implementation of primary responsibility, the responsibility of the ‘first responsible person,’ the ‘one post, dual responsibilities’ of members of leadership teams, and the supervisory responsibility of functional departments, drive the formation of a responsibility structure for managing and governing the Party in which each bears its own responsibility and which is unified and coordinated, and consolidate and develop the sound situation of the whole Party pitching in and grasping together. We must uphold the principle that failure to fulfill responsibility must be investigated and accountability must be strict, focus on problems such as lax and ineffective implementation of comprehensive and strict Party self-governance, accurately and properly use the powerful instrument of accountability, transmit pressure level by level, and ensure that responsibilities are fulfilled so as to promote the full implementation of the tasks of governing the Party and managing the Party.”

九、认真履行监督责任和协助职责,推动健全全面从严治党责任体系。习近平党建思想鲜明提出“坚持落实管党治党政治责任”,强调管党治党责任是最根本的政治责任,明确全面从严治党需要牢牢牵住的“牛鼻子”,为各级党组织和广大党员、干部知责、担责、履责提供有力指引。管党治党责任有主体责任、监督责任、第一责任人责任、“一岗双责”等,构成一个完整的责任链条,必须健全主体明确、要求清晰的责任体系。纪检监察机关作为党内监督和国家监察专责机关,要自觉向习近平总书记“我将无我、不负人民”的崇高精神境界、“得罪千百人、不负十四亿”的强烈使命担当和“虽千万人、吾往矣”的大无畏气概看齐,无私无畏、敢于斗争,为了党和人民的利益赴汤蹈火、在所不辞,坚定不移把全面从严治党和反腐败斗争进行到底。要坚决扛起监督责任,认真履行监督执纪问责、监督调查处置职责,持续强化纪律监督、监察监督、派驻监督、巡视监督,做到不缺位不越位。要认真协助党委(党组)推进全面从严治党,督促落实主体责任、第一责任人责任、领导班子成员“一岗双责”、职能部门监管责任,推动形成各负其责、统一协调的管党治党责任格局,巩固发展全党动手一起抓的良好局面。要坚持失责必问、问责必严,聚焦全面从严治党抓得不严不实等问题,准确规范用好问责利器,层层传导压力,以责任到位推动管党治党任务落实到位。

“Tenth, strengthen the standardized, law-based, and regularized building of discipline inspection and supervision work, and forge an iron army that is politically steadfast, highly capable, has excellent work style, and is incorruptible. Xi Jinping Thought on Party Building clearly puts forward ‘upholding the improvement of an organizational system that is vertically connected and forceful in execution’ and ‘upholding the building of a high-quality cadre contingent capable of shouldering the heavy responsibility of national rejuvenation’. It emphasizes thoroughly implementing the Party’s organizational line for the new era, upholding the principle that the Party manages cadres, implementing the good-cadre standards for the new era, clarifies where the Party’s advantages lie and where its strength lies, and answers the key questions concerning the cause of the Party and the state.

For the Party’s leadership and the various tasks of managing and governing the Party to be implemented to the letter, the Party’s organizations must be strong and powerful and run smoothly, and Party members and cadres must be of hard caliber and high ability.

General Secretary Xi Jinping has always placed high trust in and high hopes on the discipline inspection and supervision contingent, has profoundly expounded the important positioning of the discipline inspection and supervision organs, has put forward the important requirement of the Four Excellences for the contingent of discipline inspection and supervision cadres, and has stressed that they must always keep firmly in mind what it is they do, entrusting them with major responsibility and a glorious mission.

We must combine the study and implementation of Xi Jinping Thought on Party Building with the ‘Year of Action for the Standardization, Law-based Development, and Regularization of Discipline Inspection and Supervision Work’ campaign, earnestly implement the Opinions on Strengthening the Building of the Discipline Inspection and Supervision Contingent in the New Era, continually strengthen ideological tempering, political seasoning, practical honing, and professional training, and drive the building of the iron army to a new level. We must continue to deepen the reform of the discipline inspection and supervision system, improve the allocation of functions, institutional setup, and staffing, prudently carry out pilot programs for the re-dispatch of supervisory bodies, strengthen the coordinated use of the capacities of internal organs and resident supervisory offices, and promote the better development of organizational advantages. We must strengthen the distinct orientation of vigorously grasping the primary level, tilt more resources and forces toward the primary-level front line, strengthen guidance to lower levels, strengthen support and safeguards, deepen the reform of primary-level oversight systems and mechanisms, and, in accordance with local conditions, deepen work mechanisms such as district (zonal) collaboration. Organize political training, professional training, and practical combat training according to different levels and categories; place emphasis on discovering cadres, cultivating cadres, and tempering cadres through actual combat and practice; and gradually form a talent cultivation mechanism that combines training and combat with the characteristics of discipline inspection and supervision work. Uphold the combination of strict management and genuine care; optimize the selection, cultivation, management, and use of cadres; improve internal power restriction mechanisms and management and supervision systems; strengthen the positive incentive system for discipline inspection and supervision; ensure that one’s own conduct is upright, one’s own integrity is maintained, and one’s own capabilities are strong; properly resolve the question of ‘who supervises the discipline inspection commission’; resolutely prevent and address the problem of ‘darkness under the lamp’; and strive to forge an iron contingent of discipline inspection and supervision that is loyal, clean, responsible, dares to struggle, and is skilled at struggle, so that General Secretary Xi Jinping and the Party Central Committee can feel reassured, and the people can be satisfied.”

十、加强纪检监察工作规范化法治化正规化建设,打造政治过硬、能力过硬、作风过硬、廉洁过硬的铁军队伍。习近平党建思想鲜明提出“坚持健全上下贯通、执行有力的组织体系”“坚持建设堪当民族复兴重任的高素质干部队伍”,强调深入贯彻新时代党的组织路线,坚持党管干部原则,贯彻新时代好干部标准,明确了党的优势所在、力量所在,回答了关系党和国家事业的关键性问题。党的领导、管党治党各项工作要落到实处,党的组织必须坚强有力、顺畅运转,党员、干部必须素质过硬、本领高强。习近平总书记对纪检监察队伍始终高度信任、寄予厚望,深刻阐述纪检监察机关的重要定位,对纪检监察干部队伍提出“四个过硬”重要要求,强调要始终牢记自己是干什么的,赋予重大责任和光荣使命。要把学习贯彻习近平党建思想同“纪检监察工作规范化法治化正规化建设年”行动结合起来,认真落实加强新时代纪检监察队伍建设的意见,不断强化思想淬炼、政治历练、实践锻炼、专业训练,推动铁军建设再上新台阶。要持续深化纪检监察体制改革,完善职能配置、机构设置、力量配备,稳妥开展监察再派出试点,加强机关和派驻机构力量统筹使用,推动更好发挥组织优势。强化大抓基层的鲜明导向,将更多资源力量向基层一线倾斜,加强对下指导,强化支持保障,深化基层监督体制机制改革,因地制宜深化片区协作等工作机制。分级分类组织政治培训、业务培训、实战实训,注重在实战实践中发现干部、培养干部、锻炼干部,逐步形成有纪检监察特色的战训结合人才培养机制。坚持严管厚爱结合,优化干部选育管用,完善内部权力制约机制和管理监督体系,健全纪检监察正向激励体系,确保自身正、自身廉、自身硬,解决好“谁来监督纪委”问题,坚决防治“灯下黑”,努力锻造忠诚干净担当、敢于善于斗争的纪检监察铁军,让习近平总书记和党中央放心,让人民群众满意。
