Stop the inertia of meeting
"Now it's much better. Farmers' information is filled out directly on the Internet, which unifies the caliber. Unlike before, the policy has changed at both ends in three days, and the work requirements, the contents of the form, and the time limit for reporting have been changed four times in more than two months." Recently, A grassroots cadre involved in the reconstruction of a dangerous house in Gansu Province told reporters, "Before that, the reconstruction of a dangerous house clearly had a unified housing information system and file management system, but it also required the construction of a paper version of the archives. Pages, that is, to make a book, are largely useless."
What caused this cadre to spit out was the "Implementation Rules for the Management of Rural Household Archives Reconstruction of Dangerous Houses in Rural Areas" issued by Gansu Provincial Department of Housing and Urban-Rural Development. This detailed rule is more than 3200 words long. It seems that the regulations are detailed and meticulous. In fact, the drafted detailed implementing rules did not go through in-depth research, but directly copied the practices of other places. Grassroots staff have difficulties in understanding and implementation, which has resulted in costly, slow progress and poor results in the renovation of dangerous buildings.
The Discipline Inspection and Supervision Team of the Provincial Department of Housing and Urban-Rural Development of the Gansu Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection established a re-supervision function based on supervision, and urged the Provincial Department of Housing and Urban-Rural Development to carry out the “Four Inspections and Four Governances” special action, strictly implement the system of housing and urban and rural construction, and strictly avoid formalism The bureaucracy "ten no permits" rule. The reporter learned that, at present, the Gansu Provincial Department of Housing and Urban-Rural Development has revised and simplified the rules, and unified the standard appraisal (identification) tables, and abolished at least 7 documents.
Wenshan meeting the sea is a prominent manifestation of formalism and bureaucracy, and it is also a major problem that plagues the grassroots. In recent years, the central government has continued to work hard to reduce the number of meetings, and the situation of frequent meetings and documents has been greatly improved. However, in some places, grassroots cadres still have documents and meetings, and the time and energy for doing practical things for the masses are greatly occupied.
"It's extremely tiring, I'm tired, and my heart is even more tired." In early April, after attending the 9th meeting in a week, a township cadre in the coastal area used three "tired" words to describe his condition. The meetings that can be held have been saved until now."
When asked about the specific content of the meeting, the township cadres admitted frankly that they could not remember clearly: "Some meetings have no substantive content at all, that is, they simply read materials and read manuscripts, and the problems that can be solved in 20 minutes have to drag on two. For three hours, sitting in the venue was like a needle felt."
This is true for township cadres, and county leaders are not immune. The reporter learned that in a poverty-stricken, uncapped county located in the "three districts and three states", the county party secretary and county head participated in a total of 71 video conferences a month. In addition to the conference, time was also needed to accept some provincial direct supervision teams. Interviews and exchanges, busy busy.
In addition to the lengthy meeting time, repeated content, long distances, documents "less dry goods", unrealistic, and the need to change every day and other old-fashioned issues, some of the face-to-face phenomenon of Wenshan meeting has also appeared. A street cadre showed his mobile phone interface to reporters. Within an hour, more than 30 WeChat work groups had messages popping up. The content was nothing more than sharing files and communicating requirements: "After replying to these messages, half a day passed, really How much time is left to do things?"
Wenshan will be banned from sea to sea, and its manifestations will change frequently. Where is the crux? Some interviewed village and township cadres told reporters that in actual work, some people have formed a stereotype and are accustomed to equating the meeting to issue documents and implement the work. They feel that the meeting will be opened and the documents will be issued. Confess. If this link is missing, it will be criticized for "not paying attention": "In many cases, the'effect' of doing things is far less obvious than engaging in a vigorous statement."
"The fundamental reason for the addiction of writing at a meeting is that there is a deviation in thinking and understanding." Li Qin, head of the party style and political supervision office of the Discipline Inspection Commission of Gansu Province, said, "The concept of'not attending the meeting is not paying attention, not writing the document is not doing'." Out of some leading cadres' distorted views on power, misplaced views on political performance, and lack of sense of responsibility, they did not regard improving the effectiveness of work and solving practical problems of the masses as the starting point for the meeting and issued documents, but mistakenly regarded surface engineering as their own performance."
According to Du Zhizhou, the deputy director of the Integrity Research and Education Center of Beijing University of Aeronautics and Astronautics, another major "focal point" of Wenshan's stubborn illness is that the ability of some leading cadres cannot keep up with the demands of high-level, high-standard leadership and service work in the new era: " 'Insufficient skills, meeting to get together.' For these cadres, it is better to say that they are unwilling to change their minds than to change their minds. After all, it is much simpler to mechanize meetings and publish documents than to temper their skills and do real work. "
The Central Committee clearly stated that to effectively prevent the Wenshan Conference from rebounding, it is to gather grassroots forces on the blade to ensure the goal of achieving a decisive victory, building a well-off society in an all-round way, and fighting poverty. The essence of this is to require cadres to put their minds on seeking truth and seeking results, and bite hard bones and carry heavy burdens.
"In reality, the necessary meeting documents are a powerful means to arrange work and supervise implementation." Several grassroots cadres told reporters that they understand the role of meeting documents, but they must figure out what is necessary and what is unnecessary. The documents that should be issued are short, practical, and useful, and neither should be issued; the meetings to be held should be well arranged, and the redundant meetings should be streamlined.
Not long ago, the Hunan Provincial Party Committee formulated 10 measures to deepen the reform of formalist bureaucracy, requiring dynamic monitoring of the documents issued by various localities and departments, timely warning of the occurrence of document conferences, and timely streamlining of grassroots reports to higher levels. Reporting and reporting materials can be integrated and shared to promote quality and efficiency of grassroots work.
"If you want to improve the quality of the meeting documents, you must'soak your feet', go to the grassroots level, go to the front line, see the most real situation, listen to the most real voice, and find the most real problems." Li Qin said, "We must adhere to the problem-oriented and The result-oriented, less sloppy watching, more'optional actions', go face to face with the masses in the field, listen to the demands of the masses, and make the right decisions when targeting the meeting.
To improve the consciousness and consciousness of real work and continuous improvement of work level, it is also necessary to establish quantifiable and operable system specifications. In this regard, Du Zhizhou put forward three suggestions: "One is to increase the correction of random meetings, the second is to establish and improve the evaluation index system of leading cadres focusing on actual results, and the third is to strict the meeting approval process, and Implement all-round supervision and use hard measures to stop the inertia of meeting and publishing documents at all times."
