The Seventeenth National Congress of the Communist Party of China (CPC) has
examined and approved the Report on the Work of the Central Commission for
Discipline Inspection. It fully affirms the work of the Central Commission for
Discipline Inspection.
The congress holds that under the firm and effective leadership of the CPC
Central Committee, the whole Party and the entire society have worked together
and achieved obvious results in improving the Party's style of work, upholding
integrity and combating corruption.
The congress urges the Central Commission and local commissions for
discipline inspection at all levels to hold high the great banner of socialism
with Chinese characteristics, follow the guidance of Deng Xiaoping Theory and
the important thought of Three Represents, thoroughly apply the Scientific
Outlook on Development, perform all their functions and duties specified in the
CPC Constitution, uphold Party discipline and the principle that the Party is
strict with its members, and intensify their efforts to improve the Party's
style of work, uphold integrity and combat corruption. Party committees at all
levels must continue to strengthen their leadership over discipline inspection,
attach greater importance to combating corruption and upholding integrity, take
a clear stand against corruption, and pursue the principle of fighting
corruption in a comprehensive way, addressing both its symptoms and root cause
and combining punishment with prevention with the emphasis on prevention. They
must step up efforts to improve the Party's style of work with the focus on
maintaining close ties between the Party and the people, and enhance their
capacity to fight corruption and uphold integrity with the focus on improving
the institutions for punishing and preventing corruption. While resolutely
cracking down on corruption, Party committees at all levels must work harder to
remove its root cause, take preventive measures, and improve relevant
institutions; extend the work to curb corruption at the source to more areas;
and promote scientific development and social harmony, so as to provide an
effective guarantee for implementing the major policy decisions and strategic
arrangements made at this congress.
