general principles

  The Communist Party of China (CPC) is the vanguard of the working class in China, the people of Chinese and the Chinese nation, the leading core of Socialism with Chinese characteristics’s cause, representing the development requirements of China’s advanced productive forces, the direction of China’s advanced culture and the fundamental interests of the overwhelming majority of the people in China. The highest ideal and ultimate goal of the party is to realize communism.

  The Communist Party of China (CPC) took Marxism–Leninism, Mao Zedong Thought, Deng Xiaoping Theory, Theory of Three Represents, Scientific Outlook on Development and the Supreme Leader’s New Era Socialism with Chinese characteristics Thought as his guide to action.

  Marxism–Leninism has revealed the law of the historical development of human society, and its basic principle is correct and has great vitality. The highest ideal of communism pursued by the Communist Party of China (CPC) people can only be realized on the basis of full development and high development of socialist society. The development and perfection of the socialist system is a long historical process. Adhering to the basic principles of Marxism–Leninism and taking the road suitable for China’s national conditions voluntarily chosen by the people of China, China’s socialist cause will surely win the final victory.

  The Communist Party of China (CPC) people, with Comrade Mao Zedong as the main representative, combined Marxism–Leninism’s basic principles with the concrete practice of the China Revolution and founded Mao Zedong Thought. Mao Zedong Thought is the application and development of Marxism–Leninism in China, the correct theoretical principle and experience summary of China’s revolution and construction that has been proved by practice, and the crystallization of the Communist Party of China (CPC)’s collective wisdom. Under the guidance of Mao Zedong Thought, the Communist Party of China (CPC) led the people of all ethnic groups throughout the country. After a long-term revolutionary struggle against imperialism, feudalism and bureaucratic capitalism, he won the victory of the new-democratic revolution and established People’s Republic of China (PRC) under the people’s democratic dictatorship. After the founding of New China, the socialist transformation was successfully carried out, the transition from new democracy to socialism was completed, the basic socialist system was established, and the socialist economy, politics and culture were developed.

  Since the Third Plenary Session of the Eleventh Central Committee, the Communist Party of China (CPC) people, with Comrade Deng Xiaoping as the main representative, have summed up the positive and negative experiences since the founding of New China, emancipated their minds, sought truth from facts, realized the shift of the work center of the whole party to economic construction, implemented reform and opening up, opened up a new era of socialist development, gradually formed the line, principles and policies for building Socialism with Chinese characteristics, clarified the basic problems of building socialism, consolidating and developing socialism in China, and founded Deng Xiaoping Theory. Deng Xiaoping Theory is the product of the combination of Marxism–Leninism’s basic principles with the practice of contemporary China and the characteristics of the times. It is the inheritance and development of Mao Zedong Thought under the new historical conditions, the new stage of the development of Marxism in China, the Marxism of contemporary China, and the crystallization of the Communist Party of China (CPC)’s collective wisdom, which guides the continuous progress of China’s socialist modernization.

  Since the Fourth Plenary Session of the 13th Central Committee, the Communist Party of China (CPC) people, with Comrade Jiang Zemin as the main representative, have deepened their understanding of what socialism is, how to build socialism, what kind of party to build and how to build the party, accumulated new valuable experience in managing the party and the country, and formed Theory of Three Represents. Theory of Three Represents is the inheritance and development of Marxism–Leninism, Mao Zedong Thought and Deng Xiaoping Theory, which reflects the new requirements of the development and changes of the contemporary world and China for the work of the party and the state. It is a powerful theoretical weapon to strengthen and improve party building and promote the self-improvement and development of socialism in China. It is the crystallization of the Communist Party of China (CPC)’s collective wisdom and the guiding ideology that the party must adhere to for a long time. Always achieving "Theory of Three Represents" is the foundation of our party, the foundation of its governance and the source of its strength.

  Since the 16th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, the Communist Party of China (CPC) people, with Comrade Hu Jintao as the main representative, have adhered to the guidance of Deng Xiaoping Theory and Theory of Three Represents, deeply understood and answered major questions such as what kind of development and how to achieve it under the new situation, and formed a people-oriented, comprehensive, coordinated and sustainable development Scientific Outlook on Development. Scientific Outlook on Development is a scientific theory that is in the same strain as Marxism–Leninism, Mao Zedong Thought, Deng Xiaoping Theory and Theory of Three Represents and keeps pace with the times. It is a concentrated expression of Marxist world outlook and methodology on development, a major achievement of China Marxism, a crystallization of the Communist Party of China (CPC)’s collective wisdom, and a guiding ideology that must be adhered to for a long time in developing Socialism with Chinese characteristics.

  Since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, the Communist Party of China (CPC) people, with the Supreme Leader as the main representative, have followed the development of the times, systematically answered the important issue of what kind of Socialism with Chinese characteristics and how to uphold and develop Socialism with Chinese characteristics in the new era from the combination of theory and practice, and founded the Socialism with Chinese characteristics Thought of the Supreme Leader in the new era. Socialism with Chinese characteristics Thought of the Supreme Leader in the New Era is the inheritance and development of Marxism–Leninism, Mao Zedong Thought, Deng Xiaoping Theory, Theory of Three Represents and Scientific Outlook on Development, the latest achievement of Marxism in China, the crystallization of the practical experience and collective wisdom of the Party and the people, an important part of Socialism with Chinese characteristics’s theoretical system, and an action guide for the whole party and the people to realize the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation, which must be adhered to and continuously developed for a long time. Under the guidance of the Supreme Leader’s Socialism with Chinese characteristics Thought in the New Era, the Communist Party of China (CPC) led the people of all ethnic groups in China, took charge of great struggles, great projects, great undertakings and great dreams, and pushed Socialism with Chinese characteristics into a new era.

  The fundamental reasons for all the achievements and progress we have made since the reform and opening up can be summed up as follows: opening up the road of Socialism with Chinese characteristics, forming the system of Socialism with Chinese characteristics theory, establishing the system of Socialism with Chinese characteristics, and developing Socialism with Chinese characteristics culture. All comrades in the Party should cherish, persist in and constantly develop this road, this theoretical system, this system and this culture that the Party has worked hard to create, hold high the great banner of Socialism with Chinese characteristics, strengthen road confidence, theoretical confidence, institutional confidence and cultural confidence, implement the Party’s basic theory, basic line and general plan, and realize "two hundred years" for the three historical tasks of promoting modernization, reunifying the motherland, safeguarding world peace and promoting common development.

  Our country is in and will be in the primary stage of socialism for a long time. This is an insurmountable historical stage of building socialist modernization in China, which was originally economically and culturally backward, and it will take hundreds of years. China’s socialist construction must proceed from China’s national conditions and take the road of Socialism with Chinese characteristics. At the present stage, the main contradiction in our society is the contradiction between the people’s growing need for a better life and the unbalanced development. Due to domestic factors and international influence, class struggle still exists for a long time in a certain range, and may intensify under certain conditions, but it is no longer the main contradiction. The fundamental task of China’s socialist construction is to further emancipate, develop and gradually realize socialist modernization, and to this end, reform the relations of production and the aspects and links in the superstructure that are not suitable for the development of productive forces. We must adhere to and improve the basic economic system with public ownership as the mainstay and various forms of ownership developing together, and the distribution system with distribution according to work as the mainstay and multiple modes of distribution coexisting, encourage some regions and some people to get rich first, gradually eliminate poverty and achieve common prosperity, continuously meet the people’s growing needs for a better life and promote their all-round development on the basis of production development and social wealth growth. Development is the top priority of our party in governing and rejuvenating the country. We must adhere to the people-centered development concept and the development concept of innovation, coordination, green, openness and sharing. All work should be conducive to developing the productive forces of socialist society, enhancing the comprehensive national strength of socialist countries,It is conducive to improving people’s living standards. As the general starting point and test standard, we should respect labor, knowledge, talents and creation, so that development is for the people, development depends on the people and development results are shared by the people. Entering the new century, China has entered a new development stage of building a well-off society in an all-round way and accelerating socialist modernization. We must promote economic construction, political construction, cultural construction, social construction and ecological civilization construction in an all-round way in accordance with the "five in one" overall layout and "four comprehensive" strategic layout of Socialism with Chinese characteristics’s cause, and coordinate and promote the building of a well-off society in an all-round way, comprehensively deepen reform, comprehensively govern the country according to law and strictly manage the party in an all-round way. In the new century and era, the strategic goal of economic and social development is to build a well-off society in an all-round way by the centenary of the founding of the party; By the centenary of the founding of New China, we will have built a socialist modernization power in an all-round way.

  First, adhere to the party’s basic line. The whole party should use Deng Xiaoping Theory, Theory of Three Represents, Scientific Outlook on Development, the Supreme Leader’s New Era Socialism with Chinese characteristics Thought and the Party’s basic line to unify their thinking and actions, and unswervingly stick to it for a long time. We must unify reform and opening up with the Four Cardinal Principles, fully implement the Party’s basic line, oppose all "left" and right erroneous tendencies, and be wary of the right, but mainly prevent "left". Strengthen the construction of leading bodies at all levels, train and select good cadres needed by the party and the people, train and bring up millions of successors to the socialist cause, and ensure the implementation of the party’s basic theory, line and general plan organizationally.

  Second, persist in emancipating the mind, seeking truth from facts, advancing with the times and being pragmatic. The party’s ideological line is to proceed from reality, integrate theory with practice, seek truth from facts, test truth and develop truth in practice. The whole Party must adhere to this ideological line, actively explore, boldly experiment, blaze new trails, creatively carry out work, constantly study new situations, sum up new experiences, solve new problems, enrich and develop Marxism in practice, and promote Marxism in China.

  Third, persist in serving the people wholeheartedly. Apart from the interests of the working class and the overwhelming majority of the people, the Party has no special interests of its own. At all times, the Party puts the interests of the masses first, shares weal and woe with the masses, maintains the closest ties, insists that power is used by the people, affection is tied to the people, and benefits are sought for the people, and does not allow any party member to be divorced from the masses and be above them. The greatest political advantage of our party is to keep close contact with the masses, and the greatest danger after the party is in power is to be divorced from the masses. The party’s style of work and the relationship between the party and the people are issues that affect the life and death of the party. The Party implements the mass line in its own work, doing everything for the masses, relying on the masses, coming from the masses and going to the masses, and turning the Party’s correct ideas into the conscious actions of the masses.

  Fourth, adhere to democratic centralism. Democratic centralism is a combination of centralism on the basis of democracy and democracy under the guidance of centralism. It is not only the party’s fundamental organizational principle, but also the application of the mass line in the party’s life. We must give full play to inner-party democracy, respect party member’s dominant position, safeguard party member’s democratic rights, and give full play to the enthusiasm and creativity of party organizations at all levels and party member. We must implement correct centralization, firmly establish political consciousness, overall situation consciousness, core consciousness and conformity consciousness, firmly safeguard the authority and centralized and unified leadership of the CPC Central Committee with the supreme leader as the core, ensure the unity and unity of the whole party and the unity of actions, and ensure the rapid and effective implementation of the party’s decisions. Strengthen and standardize the political life within the party, enhance the political nature, times, principles and militancy of the political life within the party, develop a positive and healthy political culture within the party, and create a good political ecology with a clean atmosphere. The Party correctly carries out criticism and self-criticism in its own political life, struggles ideologically on the issue of principle, upholds the truth and corrects mistakes. Strive to create a political situation that is both centralized and democratic, disciplined and free, with a unified will and a happy and lively individual.

  Fifth, adhere to the strict management of the party. Strictly administering the party in an all-round way is always on the road. Under the new situation, the test of governance, reform and opening up, market economy and external environment faced by the party is long-term, complex and severe, and the danger of mental slack, lack of ability, separation from the masses and negative corruption is more acute in front of the whole party. Strict standards and strict measures should run through the whole process and all aspects of managing the party. Adhere to the rule of the party, treat both the symptoms and the root causes, persist in putting discipline ahead, strengthen organizational discipline, and everyone is equal before the party’s discipline. Strengthen the main responsibility and supervision responsibility of managing the party, strengthen the supervision of the party’s leading organs and leading cadres in party member, especially leading cadres, and constantly improve the inner-party supervision system. We will further promote the building of a clean and honest party style and the fight against corruption, punish corruption with a zero-tolerance attitude, and build an effective mechanism that does not dare to rot, cannot rot, and does not want to rot.

  The Communist Party of China (CPC)’s leadership is the most essential feature of Socialism with Chinese characteristics and the greatest advantage of the Socialism with Chinese characteristics system. Party, government, military and civilian studies, east, west, north and south, the party is the leader of everything. The Party should adapt to the requirements of reform, opening up and socialist modernization, adhere to scientific, democratic and legal governance, and strengthen and improve its leadership.

The party must strengthen its leadership over trade unions, communist youth leagues, women’s federations and other mass organizations, so that they can maintain and enhance their political, advanced and mass nature and give full play to their roles.

Pay attention to the employment of key groups | Multi-policy job recruitment is inclined to college students

CCTV News:Employment is the biggest livelihood of the people. Recently, the State Council issued the "14th Five-Year Plan for Employment Promotion", which defined seven key tasks of China’s employment work during the 14th Five-Year Plan period, among which "improving the employment support system for key groups and enhancing employment security capacity" will become the focus of future employment work.

Since the beginning of this year, a series of policies have been issued from the central government to the local government, and key groups, including college graduates, migrant workers, retired soldiers and people out of poverty, have been regarded as the top priority of current employment.

In Henan Province, there are more than 700,000 college graduates this year, ranking first in the country. Coupled with the dual effects of epidemic and disaster, the employment situation is very severe. Shortly after Zhang Yonggang, a college student, was assigned to the street office, she gained a new identity — — Volunteers for epidemic prevention and control.

This year, in order to stabilize the employment of college students, Henan Province has once again expanded the scale of "three supports and one support", and many college students like Zhang Yong have been recruited to grass-roots posts to engage in supporting doctors, teaching and supporting agriculture. At present, the government has introduced 13 measures to solve this year’s graduates’ employment through such measures as enterprises absorbing 300,000 people, recruiting 200,000 people for policy posts, starting their own businesses and flexibly employing 150,000 people.

In Hebei, in order to ensure that college students can stay and use well at the grassroots level, the government has also launched a green card for talents, providing public rental housing and various subsidies and preferential policies.

Yuan Hongzhi, Director of Civil Service Bureau of Hebei Province:Take out 30% of the county and township job plans & mdash; 50% of the special positions recruit college graduates, and encourage and guide college graduates to make contributions at the grassroots level; In the way of examination, the township position is put forward separately, which makes the civil servants employed at the grassroots level more grounded and homesick.

For college students who have not yet achieved employment after graduation season, various places are also innovating. In Qingdao, the government set up a "public service platform for youth internship and training", which attracted more than 700 high-quality enterprises to provide internship positions for fresh college students and build a "buffer zone" for employment. Wu Xiaoshuang, who hasn’t found a job since graduation, found a trainee position through the platform last month.

At present, 12,000 college students have found internship positions since the platform was launched, and the city has granted 1.134 million yuan in employment internship subsidies to college students.

Experts pointed out that entering the third quarter is the peak period for college graduates to apply for jobs in the workplace. Since the second half of the year, with a series of measures, including encouraging small and medium-sized enterprises to absorb employment, encouraging college students to work at the grassroots level, and encouraging self-employment, the employment of college graduates will remain generally stable.

Mo Rong, Vice President of China Academy of Labor and Social Security:In the second half of the year, I think it is more important to do a good job of the measures that have been introduced. For example, for college graduates, it is necessary to put their employment and employment services after they leave school in place.

General Office of the State Council on in-depth rectification of illegal activities

Notice of the special action of sewage enterprises to protect people’s health and environmental protection

Guo Ban Fa [2005] No.34

People’s governments of all provinces, autonomous regions and municipalities directly under the Central Government, ministries and commissions and institutions directly under the State Council:

In recent years, with the rapid development of China’s economy, environmental problems have become increasingly prominent, and the phenomenon of illegal sewage discharge by enterprises has been repeatedly banned, and incidents that seriously endanger people’s production and life have occurred from time to time. Since 2003, the General Administration of Environmental Protection, the Development and Reform Commission, the Ministry of Supervision, the Ministry of Justice, the State Administration for Industry and Commerce, and the General Administration of Safety Supervision (hereinafter referred to as the six departments of the State Council) have organized and carried out the "Special Action for Remediation of Illegal Pollutant Discharge Enterprises to Protect People’s Health and Environmental Protection" (hereinafter referred to as the "Special Action for Environmental Protection"), and achieved certain results. The year 2005 is the third and crucial year to carry out special environmental protection actions. In order to implement the spirit of the central forum on population, resources and environment work, with the consent of the State Council, the relevant issues concerning the in-depth development of special environmental protection actions are hereby notified as follows:

First, fully understand the importance of carrying out special environmental protection actions.

In recent years, environmental problems such as drinking water source pollution, atmospheric dust pollution and excessive urban noise have seriously endangered people’s physical and mental health and normal life, and have become the focus of petitions and complaints from some local people and an important factor affecting social stability. It is an important measure for Deng Xiaoping Theory and Theory of Three Represents to carry out special environmental protection actions and effectively solve the pollution problems related to people’s vital interests, fully implement Scientific Outlook on Development and build a harmonious socialist society. Relevant departments of the State Council and local people’s governments at all levels should fully understand the importance and urgency of carrying out special environmental protection actions from the height of people-oriented and governing for the people, and pay close attention to this work.

Two, highlight the key points of rectification, clear objectives.

To carry out special environmental protection actions, we should aim at improving environmental quality and ensuring people’s health, focus on solving environmental problems that are strongly reflected by the masses and affect social stability, and intensify environmental law enforcement as a means to focus on rectifying illegal sewage discharge by enterprises, strive to curb pollution rebound and earnestly safeguard people’s interests.

The key points of the environmental protection special action are: first, outstanding problems such as urban noise disturbing people, air pollution, drinking water source pollution and abnormal operation of sewage treatment plants; Second, the illegal examination and approval of steel, electrolytic aluminum, cement, calcium carbide, coking, ferroalloy and other industries and the illegal construction in nature reserves; Third, there are illegal sewage discharge problems in key river basins and regions such as Huaihe River Basin, Taihu Lake Basin, Three Gorges Reservoir Area, South-to-North Water Transfer Project and the border areas of Shanxi, Inner Mongolia, Shaanxi and Ningxia.

The specific objectives of the environmental protection special action are to raise the emission rate of key supervision enterprises to more than 90%, the qualified rate of environmental protection "three simultaneities" system to more than 90%, the wrong practices of grass-roots governments in violation of national environmental protection laws and regulations are basically corrected, and the environmental pollution problems repeatedly complained by the masses are basically solved.

Three, take comprehensive measures to seriously investigate and deal with environmental violations.

(1) listing and supervising outstanding environmental issues. It is necessary to take major environmental pollution problems that are strongly reflected by the masses and affect social stability as key investigation matters, supervise and supervise, implement responsibilities, follow up and supervise, and ensure that investigations are in place, rectification is in place, and accountability is in place. The matters listed for supervision and the handling results shall be announced to the public and accepted by the masses. Six departments in the State Council have been listed to supervise the industrial pollution control in Huaihe River Basin, Taihu Lake Basin and the border areas of Shanxi, Inner Mongolia, Shaanxi and Ningxia. The people’s governments of all provinces, autonomous regions and municipalities directly under the Central Government shall focus on listing and supervising the problems of environmental pollution and illegal sewage disposal that have been repeatedly complained by the masses within their administrative areas for a long time, and the solution of the listed and supervised problems shall be regarded as an important part of the government’s environmental protection target responsibility system.

(two) vigorously punish illegal sewage enterprises. It is necessary to comprehensively use legal, economic, administrative and other means, increase the punishment of illegal sewage enterprises, and resolutely curb acts that do not comply with the law. Construction projects that fail to pass the environmental impact assessment shall be ordered to stop construction or stop production, and environmental impact assessment shall be conducted within a time limit. Sewage enterprises that fail to implement the "three simultaneities" system of environmental protection and have no pollution prevention facilities shall be ordered to stop production and punished according to law. Those who use pollution prevention facilities abnormally and discharge pollutants exceeding the discharge standards shall be ordered to make corrections and be punished according to law. Enterprises that fail to meet the discharge standards stably for a long time shall be ordered to treat within a time limit, and enterprises that seriously pollute the environment shall be limited in production; Fails to complete the task of governance, shall be ordered to stop production or shut down. The production line that has not been eliminated on schedule shall be ordered to stop production or shut down.

Illegal construction projects in drinking water sources and nature reserves shall be ordered to stop construction and dismantle. Sewage treatment plants that can not operate normally and exceed the standard for sewage discharge shall be ordered to be treated within a time limit.

(3) Seriously investigate the administrative responsibility of environmental protection. We must conscientiously implement the spirit of the National Conference on Rectification of Work, conduct special inspections on the implementation of environmental protection laws and regulations by local people’s governments at all levels and their relevant departments, and resolutely correct outstanding problems that harm the rights and interests of the masses. In violation of environmental protection laws and regulations, major decision-making mistakes have occurred, resulting in serious environmental pollution; Failing to investigate and deal with environmental violations, or even shielding and conniving at illegal sewage enterprises, resulting in the problem that the masses have strongly reflected has not been solved for a long time; Responsible persons and relevant personnel of governments and departments who do not exercise their functions and powers according to law and cause serious consequences should be investigated for responsibility according to law and discipline.

(four) gradually establish a long-term mechanism to rectify illegal sewage enterprises. It is necessary to establish and improve the environmental supervision system of state supervision, local supervision and unit responsibility, and establish a comprehensive governance mechanism that combines legal, economic and administrative means; Establish and improve the target responsibility system and accountability system for environmental protection. The Ministry of Supervision and the State Environmental Protection Administration should formulate measures to investigate the administrative responsibility for violating environmental protection laws and regulations, carry out environmental law enforcement efficiency supervision, and improve the level of law enforcement; Establish and improve the restraint mechanism of environmental protection enterprises and the public supervision mechanism, and implement the system of rewarding and reporting environmental protection; Strengthen the capacity building of environmental law enforcement and establish an investment mechanism to ensure environmental law enforcement.

Fourth, strengthen leadership and implement responsibilities

(1) Strengthening the responsibilities of local governments. The people’s governments of all provinces, autonomous regions and municipalities directly under the Central Government should put the in-depth development of environmental protection special actions on the important agenda, and responsible comrades in charge of the government should take the lead in setting up a leading group for environmental protection special actions, earnestly strengthen organizational leadership, establish a working system, formulate specific implementation plans, mobilize and deploy extensively, and comprehensively carry out rectification. Local people’s governments at all levels should conduct a comprehensive inventory of the pollution discharge of enterprises within their respective administrative areas, carefully analyze the main factors affecting environmental quality, sort out outstanding environmental problems involving the vital interests of the masses, put forward key problems that need to be solved in special environmental protection actions, clarify the responsible persons and responsible units, and solve them within a time limit.

(2) Strengthen departmental cooperation. The six departments in the State Council should take the lead and carefully organize special environmental protection actions. It is necessary to formulate a work plan, clarify tasks, implement responsibilities, and strengthen supervision and inspection. It is necessary to strengthen coordination and cooperation among departments, establish a system of regular consultation and joint handling of cases and a system of handing over, transferring and moving environmental violations to jointly crack down on environmental violations. The development and reform department should supervise the elimination of backward production capacity, technology and products; The supervisory organ shall investigate the administrative responsibilities of the responsible persons and relevant personnel of the government and departments who violate environmental protection laws and regulations according to law and discipline; Judicial organs should increase publicity and legal aid for environmental protection; The industrial and commercial departments should cancel and revoke the business license of enterprises that have been closed down according to law in a timely manner; Safety supervision departments should strengthen the supervision of dangerous chemicals.

(3) Establish an assessment system. The six departments of the State Council should formulate assessment methods for special environmental protection actions, and assess the environmental protection actions carried out by the people’s governments of provinces, autonomous regions and municipalities directly under the Central Government from the aspects of organization and leadership, case supervision, pollution rebound control and environmental law enforcement capacity building, so as to effectively ensure the effectiveness of special environmental protection actions. The people’s governments of all provinces, autonomous regions and municipalities directly under the Central Government should implement all the work of special environmental protection actions to grass-roots governments step by step, and bring them into the assessment scope of environmental protection target responsibility system, and earnestly organize their implementation.

(4) Strengthen social publicity and supervision. To give full play to the role of public participation and social supervision, it is necessary to publish the list of major polluters, the list of illegal polluters, the investigation and handling of typical environmental violations and the progress of special environmental protection actions to protect the people’s right to know and supervise. Give full play to the role of the "12369" environmental hotline, unblock complaint channels, and actively encourage the masses to participate extensively. It is necessary to formulate and implement a publicity plan for special environmental protection actions, actively organize news media to follow up reports, make full use of television, radio, newspapers, the Internet and other media, increase the publicity of environmental protection laws and regulations, and create a good atmosphere for mass participation and supervision.

The people’s governments of all provinces, autonomous regions and municipalities directly under the Central Government shall, before the end of November 2005, submit a summary of the work of carrying out special environmental protection actions to the State Environmental Protection Administration, which shall, jointly with relevant departments, make a comprehensive summary and report it to the State Council.
