The specific questions and answers are as follows:
Q: What is the background of the “100-day special crackdown operation” for the transportation of live pigs in violation of laws and regulations? What are the work goals to be achieved?
A: Since March this year, 13 domestic swine swine fever outbreaks have been reported nationwide, most of which involve illegal transportation of live pigs. At present, the production of live pigs is speeding up, the demand for cross-regional transfer of breeding pigs and piglets continues to increase, and the risk of cross-regional transmission of African swine fever is also increasing. The most prominent hidden dangers are the failure to use record vehicles, unchecked live pigs, and no ears. Issues of violation of laws and regulations such as bidding.
In order to effectively control the risk of cross-regional transmission of African swine fever, the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Affairs has carried out a 60-day special rectification operation for illegally transporting pigs in violation of laws and regulations since early April, and achieved positive results in stages. This time the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Affairs, the Ministry of Transport, and the Ministry of Public Security decided to take joint actions to upgrade the special rectification to a "100-day special crackdown action", which is to prevent and control risks more effectively through more extensive and in-depth investigations into illegal and illegal operations. Through the implementation of this "100-day special crackdown operation", it will promote the establishment of a multi-sectoral coordination and supervision mechanism for live pig transportation across the country, and weave a supervision network focusing on provincial borders, important hubs and highway entrances and exits within counties, Improve the supervision mode that combines fixed-site inspection and mobile inspection to form a long-term mechanism for effectively preventing the spread of major animal diseases such as African swine fever through transportation.
Question: How will the "100-day special crackdown operation" be carried out, and what control measures will be adopted?
Answer: The "100-day special strike operation" started in late May and ended in early September, and was carried out in three stages. It was seamlessly connected with the special rectification being carried out by the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Affairs, and continued to fight hard and block. The epidemic spread.
One is to mobilize deployment from the issuance of action notices to June 1st, instructing localities to establish a joint working mechanism of organizational leadership and departments from top to bottom, to quickly communicate and implement work requirements to the lowest level, and work responsibilities and tasks are clear to specific Units and staff.
Secondly, from June to August, three months will be organized and implemented. During this period, various methods will be used to dispatch and supervise the implementation of the measures in a timely manner to ensure that the actual results are seen.
The third is to comprehensively summarize the progress of the operation in early September, normalize and institutionalize the effective experience and practices in a timely manner, consolidate the effectiveness of the work, and improve the full-length effective mechanism.
During the "100-day special crackdown action", five measures will be taken to focus on weaving dense pig transportation monitoring network, strengthening the inspection and control of transportation links, seriously handling violations of laws and regulations, strict management of pig vehicle registration, and strengthening the information management of pig transportation.
Question: During the "100-day special crackdown operation", how will the three departments strengthen collaboration?
Answer: The three departments will co-ordinate and coordinate the power resources, and establish and improve working mechanisms such as situation briefing, joint operations, information sharing, and case transfer.
The Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Affairs will set up inspection stations scientifically with the transportation and public security departments to ensure that there are no gaps in the entry and exit of live pigs; establish a joint law enforcement mechanism to ensure that inspection personnel should be dispatched.
The transportation department will organize the road management agency and toll road operation and management unit, rely on the highway overtaking station and toll station, cooperate with the agricultural and rural departments to do a good job in joint prevention and control, and notify the agricultural and rural departments in time when suspicious vehicles are found and assist in the relevant disposal. jobs.
The public security department will assist the agricultural, rural, and transportation departments to supervise and inspect the pig transportation vehicles, and promptly handle obstruction inspections, violent resistance, and other emergencies according to law.
Q: What will happen to the illegal transfer of pigs found in violation of laws and regulations?
A: During the operation, all localities will strictly investigate and punish illegal and illegal transfer of pigs in accordance with the law, and those suspected of committing crimes will be promptly transferred to the public security organs. Live pigs with no quarantine certificate, no animal ear tags and unrecorded transportation vehicles will be detained and handled on site, and the cargo owner shall be responsible for quarantine and observation for 15 days. For pigs that are sick, die, or have positive African swine fever tests, they will not be subsidized for resolute killing. The Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Affairs will promptly dispatch the cases to investigate and deal with the progress, expose various typical cases in a timely manner, and widely publicize and report through the media, which not only forms a powerful deterrent to the criminals, but also uses this warning to remind the majority of farmers to stay away from problem pigs and prevent them from being lucky. Outweigh the gains. As for the new problem of selling infected pigs via the Internet this year, we will use the big data and other new methods as the focus of investigation and investigation to resolutely eliminate illegal criminal networks and cut off the illegal sales chain.
Question: How to strengthen the management of hog transportation vehicles and purchase trafficking?
Answer: The implementation of filing management for live pig transportation vehicles is an important basic work to ensure the traceability of live pig transportation. Since November 2018, all regions have initiated the management of pig transportation vehicle filings. Currently, a total of 85,000 vehicles have been filed. Judging from the epidemic situation reported this year, some entities involved in the acquisition and trafficking of live pigs have not fully understood and prepared this new requirement.
In the next step, we will guide the local government to proceed from three aspects and further strengthen the vehicle record management. The first is to improve the information level of hog transportation vehicles to provide more convenient conditions for the localities to check whether the vehicles are filed in the quarantine and supervision of transportation in the production area. The second is to increase efforts to find that if the pig transport vehicle is not recorded, the quarantine link will not be issued. The third is to implement dynamic management. If any illegal behaviors are found in the vehicles that have been registered, the registration shall be cancelled immediately. At the same time, it is necessary to strengthen the management of units and practitioners for the purchase and trafficking of live pigs, use information-based means to carry out information registration and supervision and management, urge them to implement the main responsibility of animal epidemic prevention, and engage in the purchase and trafficking of live pigs in accordance with the law.
