Respond to the suggestion to extend the small holiday appropriately
During the National Two Sessions, some representatives suggested that the small and long holidays should be extended appropriately to promote domestic consumption.
In this regard, Sun Guojun pointed out that extending the small holiday can indeed promote consumption, especially for residents' travel, leisure and entertainment is very important.
I believe that the relevant departments will carefully study this proposal, including the implementation of paid leave and other systems.
Sun Guojun said that multiple measures must be taken to expand consumption.
One is to increase income, especially the income of low-income groups.
The second is to increase the supply, which includes improving the quality of the supply of physical goods as well as the supply of services, such as "one old and one small" service.
The third is to improve the consumption environment so that consumers can consume with confidence.

Efforts to reduce the cost of raising the next generation of the family
Many deputies and committee members put forward suggestions on the issue of fertility. Some suggested further liberalizing fertility restrictions, and some suggested increasing the willingness of young couples of childbearing age to have children.
In this regard, Sun Guojun pointed out that optimizing the fertility policy and promoting the realization of an appropriate fertility level are objective requirements for promoting the long-term balanced development of the population.
However, optimizing the fertility policy is far from enough. It is necessary to promote the linkage of the fertility policy and the economic and social policies to effectively reduce the family's cost of childbirth, nurturing, and education.
He said that the government work report also proposed specific measures in the annual work arrangement.
For example, “further increase the rate of pre-school education enrollment, improve the inclusive pre-school education guarantee mechanism, and support social forces to run kindergartens”, and “development of infant care services” was added in the revision.
These measures are in response to social concerns, and strive to reduce the cost of raising the next generation of the family.

Do your best to help young people alleviate housing difficulties
How to solve the housing problem of young people?
Sun Guojun pointed out that this year's government work report clearly stated that the prominent housing problems in big cities must be resolved.
He said that, on the one hand, speed up the construction of a housing security system with affordable rental housing and common property housing as the main body, provide effective policy support in terms of land supply and special funding arrangements, and list rental housing separately in land use plans.
On the other hand, standardize the development of the housing rental market, improve the long-term rental policy, and conduct reasonable adjustments to the rental level.
In the enjoyment of public services, we must promote the same right of rent and purchase, and do our best to help new citizens, young people and other groups alleviate housing difficulties.
Before the end of the year, a batch of government affairs will be promoted across provinces
At present, 280 million people in my country are in a state of "separation of people and households."
Sun Guojun said that before the end of this year, a number of government affairs will be further promoted to "trans-province".
For example: in terms of personal matters, including direct settlement of outpatient expenses across provinces, basic medical insurance relationship transfer and continuation, household registration, unemployment insurance relationship transfer and continuation, housing provident fund withdrawal, birth registration, etc.
In terms of corporate matters, more than 30 corporate-related matters, such as the processing of industrial product production licenses, medical advertisement review, and real estate mortgage registration, must be handled in different places.
Sun Guojun said that in the next step, it will also speed up the promotion of "cross-provincial administration" of businesses such as newborn registration, marriage registration, first application for ID cards, and social security participation payment inquiries, which will bring more convenience to enterprises and the public.

Why not set specific targets for tax and fee reductions this year?
Statistics show that last year the state introduced a large-scale phased tax and fee reduction policy with a target of 2.5 trillion yuan, and the actual implementation exceeded 2.6 trillion yuan.
In the past five years, the cumulative increase in tax cuts and fees has exceeded 7.6 trillion yuan.
Sun Guojun said that this year's government work report did not propose a scale target for tax and fee reduction, but focused on optimizing and implementing tax and fee reduction policies.
The main consideration is that, after years of fiscal and taxation reforms, the implemented tax and fee reduction policies are mainly systemic burden reduction. These policies have been implemented for a long time. As the economy expands, the effect of tax reduction and fee reduction will become more and more obvious. .
At the same time, new and more precise tax reduction policies have been introduced this year for small and micro enterprises and individual industrial and commercial households.
In encouraging enterprises to invest in research and development, tax incentives have also been increased.
According to reports, this year will also promote the reduction of basic production and operation costs of enterprises, including the cost of electricity, network, logistics and so on.
Strictly controlling the unreasonable growth of non-tax revenue, rectifying arbitrary charges, arbitrary fines, and arbitrary apportionment are not only to consolidate the results of burden reduction, but also to reduce institutional transaction costs and improve the business environment.
