Strengthening Party Discipline

China.org.cnUpdated: July 11, 2019


Strengthening Party Discipline

Party organizations at all levels and all members must obey Party rules and regulations. Discipline is vital to the unity of the Party, and provides a basis for realizing the Party’s objectives.

The CPC is a Marxist party informed by revolutionary ideals and iron discipline. Discipline enforcement is therefore pivotal to improving governance within the Party.

At the second plenary session of the 18th CPC Central Commission for Discipline Inspection in January 2013, Xi Jinping called for strengthening Party discipline. The issue of discipline was included in an overall plan for Party development for a new era at the 19th CPC National Congress, and this was an innovative, important part of the Party building initiative.

Discipline must be enforced at both political and organizational levels, to help promote integrity and ethical behavior in interactions with the public, in the performance of official duties, and in daily life.

Training on the importance of discipline will be expanded; rules and regulations improved; and discipline enforcement strengthened. Criticism and self-criticism continue to be a valuable tool for identifying and addressing transgressions and preventing their future occurrence. Oversight and enforcement will be stepped up, and disciplinary or legal action will be taken whenever necessary, including oral warnings, written censure, demotions and prosecutions.

Efforts will be made to identify problems early and correct them while they are nascent. Party organizations with the power to supervise officials will be given corresponding power to take disciplinary action as called for, and accountability for overseeing discipline compliance will be tightened up on, so as to ensure that Party members and officials hold discipline in awe, do not cross the line, and become used to working and living under oversight and constraints.

党的纪律建设

党的纪律是党的各级组织和全体党员必须遵守的行为规则,是维护党的团结统一、完成党的任务的保证。中国共产党是靠革命理想和铁的纪律组织起来的马克思主义政党,纪律严明是党的光荣传统和独特优势,加强纪律建设是全面从严治党的治本之策。2013年1月,在十八届中央纪委二次全会上,习近平明确提出“加强党的纪律建设”。中共十九大把纪律建设纳入新时代党的建设总体布局,是关于党建的重要理论和实践创新。加强党的纪律建设,必须把纪律挺在前面,坚持纪严于法、纪在法前,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、生活纪律严起来。必须加强纪律教育,制定完善纪律规定,强化纪律执行,坚持开展批评和自我批评,坚持惩前毖后、治病救人,运用监督执纪“四种形态”,抓早抓小、防微杜渐。必须赋予有干部管理权限的党组相应纪律处分权限,强化监督执纪问责,让党员、干部知敬畏、存戒惧、守底线,习惯在受监督和约束的环境中工作生活。
