Under the background of epidemic situation, seek to improve the financial integration of the Yangtze River Delta

　　——Recommendation by NPC Representative Huang Zhengren, Director of Ningbo Institute of Materials, Chinese Academy of Sciences

【Representatives and Duties】　

　　Under the epidemic, the busyness of Huang Zhengren, deputy of the National People's Congress and director of the Ningbo Institute of Materials Technology and Engineering, and the colleagues of the Chinese Academy of Sciences is full of the feeling of fighting-the urgently developed goggles anti-fog film can guarantee no fog for 6 hours , Which provides great convenience for medical staff; panoramic cameras and automated temperature detection devices for dense crowds are quickly placed in public places around the world; rapid viral RNA extraction and detection technology is urgently operated in various laboratories ...

　　During the sit-in, Huang Zhengren ’s thinking shifted from anti-epidemic to farther economic development: "In 2018, the regional integration of the Yangtze River Delta rose to a national strategy. At that time, I thought that The budget management mechanism, tax revenue distribution and other fiscal and taxation systems should provide policy support for the co-construction and sharing of basic public services in the region, thereby forming a new mechanism for the integration and high-quality development of the Yangtze River Delta. Now, the collaborative cooperation that has just rejuvenated because of the new crown pneumonia The epidemic has brought new challenges; how should this path continue in the future? "

　　Huang Zhengren saw the problems in fiscal coordination under the epidemic situation. "Current data shows that in the first quarter, the GDP of Jiangsu, Zhejiang, Shanghai, and Anhui declined by 5%, 5.6%, 6.7%, and 6.5%, respectively. The impact of the epidemic on economic growth and corporate profitability will further affect the narrow fiscal space. However, stable growth and stable employment require a positive fiscal policy. This is a contradiction. The epidemic has a profound impact on the Yangtze River Delta. "

　　Even in the same richest region in China, the financial levels of the three provinces and cities in the Yangtze River Delta vary. "The difference in basic public service funds is obvious, the difference in social security payment level is obvious, the difference in financial revenue scale and its source is obvious, and the difference in scale of administrative charges is obvious." In Huang Zhengren's view, these will lead to significant differences in public services, while It will also make it difficult for any party who bears the cost of cooperation in the integration process to obtain corresponding benefits compensation. He believes that this is the key to the difficulty of deep cooperation in the region at this stage. "Especially in the context of the epidemic situation, the cities cannot timely allocate funds and resources based on differences in economic structure and public services, and cannot meet the needs of materials and funds."

　　"The coordinated financial development in the Yangtze River Delta region requires more reasonable and efficient countermeasures." By investigating the fiscal differences and impacts of the Yangtze River Delta region in the context of the epidemic situation, Huang Zhengren proposed the feasibility of constructing a coordinated financial budget management mechanism: The reform of the budget management mechanism of the three provinces and one city in the Yangtze River Delta, the establishment of a horizontal transfer payment system to promote the integration and high-quality development of the Yangtze River Delta, and the establishment of an optimized tax collection and management coordination mechanism have been established in three aspects. "

　　In Huang Zhengren ’s thinking, to achieve these practical measures that can be implemented to ensure that the budget transparency can be improved by unifying the regional budget performance evaluation standards and methods in the Yangtze River Delta, according to the difference in economic structure of the place of transfer of financial resources and the place of transfer of financial resources In order to standardize the horizontal organization of funds, unify the tax filing deadlines of emergency matters, and ease the difficulty of tax management for enterprises; through coordinated tax collection and management, we can avoid the introduction of unilateral tax preferential policies to eliminate tax depressions caused by differences in implementation intensity; The tax information communication and exchange mechanism can be comprehensively improved to ensure that the implementation of the policy is not discounted, and at the same time, strengthen the statistical analysis of the operation of the policy to continuously improve the policy.

　　"Building a coordinated financial budget management mechanism is an important measure to promote the full flow of production factors in the Yangtze River Delta. It can not only play an important role in the context of the epidemic, but also play a pivotal role in the process of integrated high-quality development." In the future, Huang Zhengren is full of expectations.
