From Congestion To Travel Cost Vulnerability " Redemption "

The problem of work style is related to public and private issues. It is related to public funds and public power. Public money is surnamed the public. One minute or two can not be spent in disorder. In modern society, the budget is the financial support for the operation of public power and the main source of public expenditure and public expenditure. Central and local governments regulate and strengthen the management of travel expenses and block loopholes in the system, which can help to strengthen budgetary management and supervision, and strictly control public expenditure and public spending. Only by leveraging the levers of the budget system, let the public know and supervise the dynamics and direction of the government's "pocketbook", can we firmly grasp the throat of public expenditure and public expenditure, and maximize the containment of public spending and waste, so as to firmly grasp the "throat" of public funds and public power, so that public funds can not be spent one minute or two, and public power can not be used in private.

The administrative measures for the travel expenses of the municipal Party and government organs and public institutions in Guangzhou have been officially promulgated and implemented recently, stipulate that the officers of the section and below shall not take the plane in principle, because they need to take strict control of their flights on a business trip or on a business trip. According to the "measures", on the premise of not affecting public affairs and ensuring safety, the traveling personnel choose the appropriate means of transport according to the principles of economy, safety and convenience, and ride on the prescribed level, and claim for reimbursement.

"Officers in the section and below do not take the plane in principle", "at the provincial level and the equivalent duty personnel can take the plane and the safety of the first class". These regulations objectively highlight the differences in the treatment of traveler at different levels, and have aroused some discussions on the Internet. In January last year, the Ministry of Finance issued a revised regulation on the travel expenses of central and state organs, which stipulates that ministerial officials can travel first class on a business trip. The bureau level and the following personnel are required to fly in economy class, and the transportation cost is 80 yuan per person per day. Subsequently, the "local edition" was formulated in accordance with the standards of the central state organs. Beijing, Shanghai, Tianjin, Chongqing and other places have issued the regulations on travel expenses management. Compared with this, the Guangzhou version of the "measures" has been more meticulous and more rigorous in terms of specific standards. Some of these Provisions are reiterated to the original regulations, some are made according to the changes or intensification according to the circumstances, and these regulations must be strictly implemented. The central and local authorities' management of travel expenses will be more and more standardized.

For public activities and the resulting consumption of public funds, what is most impressive is the "three public" funds, such as going abroad for public service, the purchase and operation of official vehicles, the official hospitality, strengthening the opening of "three public funds" and the supervision of "three public" consumption. In November last year, the central government issued the "Regulations on party and government organs to fight against waste in strict economy", which lists several major public expenditure items such as domestic travel and temporary travel abroad, official reception, official vehicles, conference activities, office space and other major public expenditure items. Here is a new idea to strengthen budgetary supervision. "Three powers" should include domestic travel for business.

Specifically, there are still some complicated situations, mainly in China. Travel expenses There is a need to demarcate the boundaries between the official hospitality and the official hospitality. The central government has promulgated the "Regulations on the management of domestic official reception of Party and government organs", which regulates the reception scope and standards of public service units (including accommodation, meals, transportation, etc.) and the related expenses; and the travel expenses management regulations stipulate that the intercity transportation expenses, accommodation fees, meals allowance and municipal transportation expenses that public servants take on business trips can be returned. Unit reimbursement At least, there is a possibility of cross arrangement or duplication of reimbursement on the three items of accommodation, meals and transportation expenses. A thorough system design must be carried out to tighten the space of the "edge ball" for business personnel through closer cohesion and restriction measures, and to enhance the public's supervision of official travel and official reception activities through a wider and higher level of information disclosure, so as to prevent them from being prevented. Business traveler Eat up and down, make profits at both ends.

The regulation of official travel expenses is the same for the supervision of official expenses, such as going abroad, fees, bus purchase and operation fees, official reception fees, meeting fees and office expenses. Doing these jobs is not only to implement the eight provisions of the Central Committee, consolidate the results of opposing the "four winds", but also to promote strict economy and oppose waste standardization and institutionalization. In fact, China's current laws and regulations do not lack the regulations to oppose waste. According to the provisions of the criminal law and relevant laws, some of the acts of eating and drinking wastefully and wasteful spending in public expenditure and public expenditure can be identified as having the property of encroaching on financial funds or occupying the property of this single property, so that they can infringe upon property or corruption. To promote austerity and oppose wasteful work, we need to combine strict law enforcement with deepening budget reform, ensure that the NPC carries out strict professional examination of the government budget, implement strong supervision, protect the public's right to know, participate in and supervise the government's budget, promote the establishment of an open, transparent, standardized and complete budgetary system, bring all revenues and expenditures of the government into the budget, and all government expenditures must be budgeted beforehand. Once the budget is passed by the NPC, it becomes a rigid law, any department and personnel must strictly abide by it, and violators must strictly investigate their responsibilities and make them pay a heavy price.
