The Central Commission for Discipline Inspection and the State Supervision Commission publicly notified 10 typical cases to release a strong signal
Strictly inspect the granary "shuo rat"
On November 30, the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection and the State Supervision Commission publicly notified 10 typical cases of violations of discipline and law in the field of grain purchase and sale, which fully demonstrated the strong determination and determination of the Party Central Committee to unswervingly promote the construction of party style and clean government and the fight against corruption. A strong signal that you will be caught when you reach out.
Food security is an important foundation of national security, and grain purchase and sale is a key link in ensuring food security.
In August of this year, the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection and the State Supervision Commission deployed a nationwide special rectification work on corruption in the grain purchase and sale field. All regions, relevant departments and units followed up in a timely manner and launched in an all-round way, and the special rectification work is progressing vigorously and orderly.
Based on their functions and responsibilities, all levels of discipline inspection and supervision agencies have stepped up their efforts to deal with corruption in the field of grain purchase and sale, and have investigated and dealt with a group of bold and greedy granary "master rats."
In the cases announced this time, most violations of discipline and law occurred after the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, and even after the 19th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, they still did not close their hands. They involved business supervisory authorities and state-owned grain enterprises, covering grain purchase, storage, and sales. In many links, the amount involved is large, the level of personnel involved is high, and the harmful consequences are serious.
What are the typical manifestations of these violations of discipline and laws in the field of grain purchase and sale?
Why are such problems prone to happen frequently?
How do the discipline inspection and supervision agencies accurately crack down on rectification?
The power of the “top leader” or person in charge in the field of grain purchase and sale is rent-seeking, embezzling and accepting bribes, embezzling public funds, and abusing power, which seriously endangers national food security
The cases reported this time have fully exposed the outstanding problems of responsibility, corruption, and work style in the field of grain purchase and sale. They have even spread and been cured for a long time in some places, forming a systemic and territorial stubborn disease.
After combing through the cases, it is found that this type of problem mostly occurs in the “top leaders” and the main managers, and from top to bottom, it is possible to use the power in their hands to “pluck their hairs”.
Some leading cadres of party members who were supposed to be the "gatekeepers" of the country's granary, used their positions to facilitate the exchange of power and money, and even colluded internally and externally to "rely on food for food."
For example, Dong Chunping, the former director of the Purchase and Sales Planning Department of China Grain Reserves Management Group Co., Ltd., took advantage of his positions as deputy general manager of China National Grain Reserves Heilongjiang Branch, general manager of China National Grain Reserves Chengdu Branch, and director of the purchase and sales planning department of China National Grain Reserves Group Co., Ltd. to examine and approve, In food transportation and other aspects, he sought benefits for others and accepted bribes of more than 5.03 million yuan.
Use power or position influence to help companies controlled by their relatives to participate in China National Grain Reserves Corporation's policy-oriented grain purchasing and storage, and related companies to obtain storage subsidies.
Although a small number of party members and cadres do not directly accept bribes, they indirectly set up rent-seeking by introducing or arranging relatives and friends to enter relevant enterprises.
For example, Fei Renping, former member of the party group and deputy director of the Hubei Provincial Grain Bureau, was in charge of the bidding work for the grain depot monitoring and construction project of the Hubei Provincial Grain Bureau, through tailoring the tendering conditions, modifying the scoring standards, and asking the judges to lower the scores of other companies. Provide assistance to the winning bidder and introduce relatives and friends to Ye XX for cooperative operation or investment.
Turning their attention to their own "responsibility food", some party members and cadres embezzled public funds through false reimbursements, false agreements, and interception of income.
For example, Li Haiping, the former party secretary and chairman of Yunnan Grain Industry Group Co., Ltd., took advantage of his position and cooperated with others to sign false dynamic reserve grain purchase agreements and withhold the revenue from rotating grain sales, and embezzled more than 15.55 million yuan in public funds.
In the face of the large amount of money sold for grain sales, some party members and cadres have moved their "wrong minds" to treat public funds as private funds, without discipline, and openly misappropriating them.
For example, Yang Bin, the former director of the Local Grain Reserve Management Center of Datong City, Shanxi Province, instructed his subordinates and several grain brokers to deposit more than 4.36 million yuan in sales of grain into his personal bank accounts for the purchase of stocks and personal consumption.
Liability issues such as unauthorized behavior, unfair performance of duties, and lax law enforcement are also prone to occur frequently in food-related corruption issues.
For example, Li Lanxia, the former party secretary and general manager of the Guizhou Provincial Grain Reserve Management Corporation, did not conduct collective research and illegally decided the procurement method of the provincial reserve and temporary storage in the procurement of the provincial reserve and temporary storage in Guizhou Province. The head office borrowed 2.2 million yuan from management and service targets, and repaid the aforementioned loans by borrowing in advance the provincial grain reserve rotation funds.
In addition, in the process of supervision and management, problems such as speculation, falsification, and bureaucracy also occur from time to time.
For example, Liu Guozhong, a former member of the Party Group of the Finance Bureau of Ning'an City, Heilongjiang Province, in collaboration with others, in the verification of a private enterprise’s declaration of grain subsidies, deliberately concealed the fact that the self-purchased corn did not have a special invoice for agricultural products, which caused the declared enterprise to illegally obtain national grain subsidies. 1.36 million yuan was paid, causing national economic losses.
Concealed means of committing crimes is another feature of this type of case.
Some leading cadres of party members have turned the national granary into personal money warehouses and private warehouses by means of over-reporting and falsely reporting the purchase price, falsely signing contracts, and using shoddy goods.
"Black box operation" exists in all aspects of acquisition, storage, sales, bidding, etc., and is related to the monopolistic characteristics of the grain purchase and sale field." The sales method is monopolistic, and the supervision and management of the grain field lacks public supervision, which makes "black box operation" possible.
The “top leader” engages in “one speech”, and the lack of supervision and supervision has led to frequent occurrences of food-related violations of discipline and laws
The issue of violations of laws and regulations in the field of grain purchase and sale involves multiple links such as grain purchase, storage, and sales. The units or enterprises related to it seem to be marginal units with little power, but they manage the rotation of thousands of tons of grain reserves. Once the problem of "relying on food for food" occurs, it will seriously damage the political ecology of the food system, harm the vital interests of the people, and endanger national food security.
Li Haiping embezzled more than 15.55 million yuan in public funds, and Yang Bin embezzled more than 3.38 million yuan in public funds. Wu Xincheng, the former party secretary and director of the Shaanxi Provincial Grain Bureau, took advantage of his positions as deputy director of the Shaanxi Provincial Development and Reform Commission and director of the Shaanxi Provincial Grain Bureau. In terms of distribution, project contracting, business operation, etc., seeking benefits for others, accepting bribes of more than 59.45 million yuan...
The notified cases show that violations of discipline and law in the grain purchase and sale field often involve a large amount of funds. Under the temptation of huge interests, some party members and leaders in the grain purchase and sale field have tried the law by themselves, guarding themselves by stealing them through contract fraud, financial fraud, and interception of grain funds, or In the aspects of grain depot project construction, allocation of indicators, and business operations, they use their powers to provide help to others, and then conduct power-to-money transactions to seek illegitimate benefits.
Using power and money to trade corruption, using false claims to purchase food, financial fraud, interception of income and other methods to embezzle public funds... Some granary "master rats" are not clever in corruption methods, so why do they often succeed?
The lack of ideals and beliefs is the root cause of food-related violations of discipline and law.
According to Zhuang Deshui’s analysis, some party leaders, especially the “top leaders”, as “gatekeepers” of the granary, did not perform their duties well. “More importantly, they did not look at the issue of food purchase and sale from the perspective of national food security and political security. Your own selfish desires override national security."
As Wang Yinfeng, the former party secretary and chairman of Chongqing Grain Group Co., Ltd., said in his confession: "I don’t talk about politics and I don’t have a strong sense of the overall situation. It’s not a matter at all." "When I started at the grain group, I thought I had arrived at the enterprise, and I had loosened my demands on myself. I dealt with problems and cooperated with foreign countries, and my selfishness was repeated."
A review found that most of the “top leaders” or major managers in the grain purchase and sale field have been in the grain system for many years and are familiar with the entire system’s business, and the “top leaders” have greater autonomy, patriarchal, and a serious style of “one-speaking”.
"In the past, Wang Yinfeng often turned his personal ideas into collective decisions through the party committee and board of directors, which exposed the internal constraints of the group members and the collective decision-making system was in vain." Ma Pingchuan, secretary of the Chongqing Food Group Disciplinary Committee, said.
The frequent occurrence of corruption in the field of grain purchase and sale is not unrelated to the lack of supervision in some localities and units and the lack of internal supervision.
For example, at the Datong Local Grain Reserve Management Center of Yang Bin’s case, the management of the unit was chaotic before the case. The financial teller held the receipt in one hand and the official seal in the other.
"Due to the monopolistic nature of the grain purchase and sale field, social supervision is often unable to participate, coupled with insufficient internal supervision and restriction mechanisms, lack of supervision, weak external supervision, problems are not easy to detect, and corruption problems are proliferating." Director Song Wei analyzed.
In addition, in some places and units, the daily guidance and inspection of the grassroots units by the higher-level competent departments are not in place, and the party style and clean government education activities of some grassroots units cannot be carried out regularly, resulting in a weak sense of discipline and rules among the party members and cadres of the grassroots grain depot.
Focusing on issues of responsibility, corruption, and work style, focusing on key links such as grain purchase, storage, and sales, strengthen supervision and inspection, and consolidate the main responsibility
Since the launch of the special rectification of corruption in the field of grain purchase and sale, discipline inspection and supervision agencies at all levels have focused on issues of responsibility, corruption, and style of work to strengthen supervision and inspection, and take effective measures to strictly and quickly investigate and deal with major typical cases, especially grassroots grain companies that "rely on food for food". "The case continues to form a high-pressure situation.
Sun Liguo, member of the Standing Committee of the Party Committee and Deputy General Manager of the Liaoning Branch of China Grain Reserves Management Group Co., Ltd., is suspected of serious violations of discipline and law and is under review and investigation; former Party Secretary and Chairman of Changchun Grain (Group) Co., Ltd. Yue Yingmao is suspected of serious violations of discipline and law in the field of grain purchase and sale. Currently under review and investigation... Recently, the disciplinary inspection and supervision organs have successively announced multiple cases of serious violations of discipline and law in the field of grain purchase and sale, releasing a strong signal for a thorough investigation and thorough investigation.
Discipline inspection and supervision agencies at all levels strengthen supervision and inspection, promote local party committees and governments to implement the main responsibilities of grain purchase and sale, urge relevant functional departments to earnestly fulfill their supervisory responsibilities, and "zero tolerance" for dereliction of duty and responsibility, and find and deal with them together to effectively change the lack of supervision. Status.
"From the investigation and handling of the cases, most of the corruption in the grain purchase and sale field is concentrated in the grain departments at the county and township levels and the grass-roots grain depots." According to the relevant person in charge of the Shaanxi Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection, the discipline inspection and supervision agencies at all levels in the province closely monitor the purchase of grain. , Storage, sales and other key links, pay close attention to key units, positions, and key personnel, seriously investigate and deal with the "reliance on food" issues such as false reports, Chen Dingxin, empty in and empty out, as well as supervision and management, and formalistic bureaucracy. We will continue to promote the special rectification of corruption in the field of grain purchase and sale.
In order to effectively guarantee food security, local discipline inspection and supervision agencies have carried out in-depth special rectification of corruption in the field of grain purchase and sale, and cooperated with the ongoing special inspections on grain-related issues to accurately identify problems and form a powerful deterrent.
The Commission for Discipline Inspection and Supervision of Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region has focused on the issue of food system units and enterprises with multiple points, multiple lines, wide coverage and willful use of power by a small number of “top leaders”. Supervision and inspection will further reduce the wayward space for the exercise of power.
Up to now, the party committee of the Autonomous Region's Grain and Material Reserve Bureau, various internal offices and grassroots grain depots, and directly affiliated enterprises and institutions have set up anti-corruption risk prevention and control supervisors to supervise key links such as grain purchase, storage, and sales.
To promote the implementation of responsibilities in self-inspection and self-correction, the Heilongjiang Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection clearly refined the task list items, decomposed the self-inspection and self-correction tasks into 13 aspects and 33 specific requirements, and clarified the responsibilities and tasks of all parties, and self-inspection and self-inspection. Correct key points and standard requirements to ensure the implementation of responsibilities.
Up to now, the province's self-examination and self-correction have found 1,731 food-related issues, including 184 clues to violations of discipline and law. The discipline inspection and supervision organs have filed investigations on the 20 people involved.
To tighten and consolidate supervision responsibilities, the Chongqing Municipal Commission for Discipline Inspection has directed the municipal SASAC, Chongqing Grain Group, and formerly affiliated enterprises of the State-owned Enterprise to guide the State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission of the State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission of the State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission of the State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission of the State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission of the State-owned Enterprise The city’s grain reserve company and other units focused on the “top leader” and carried out the “four reforms by case” to promote the prevention and resolution of corruption risks in the state-owned enterprise sector.
Regarding the existing problems, several units compared the "Four Reforms by Cases" list of issues, responsibilities list, and task list to clarify the time limit and the number of pending orders.
Adhere to the integration of the "three noes", promote the establishment of regulations and systems to make up for shortcomings, and achieve long-term effects in the field of grain purchase and sale
In response to frequent reports of violations of laws and regulations in the field of grain purchase and sale, Song Wei suggested: “It is necessary to establish a complete supervision and control mechanism in the procurement, storage, sales, and construction of grain depots.”
Starting from investigating cases, in-depth analysis, finding the root cause, strengthening warning education in the food system, reporting and exposing typical cases, issuing disciplinary inspection and supervision recommendations, and promoting the competent regulatory authorities and grain purchase and sales enterprises to improve the system, plug loopholes, and deepen reforms... Disciplinary inspection and supervision at all levels The organs insisted on a unified promotion of not daring to rot, not wanting to rot, and not wanting to rot, and promoted the solution of systemic corruption in the field of grain purchase and sale, and achieved lasting results.
Taking cases of violations of discipline and law as the entry point, the Heilongjiang Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection has sorted out 823 violations of discipline and law in the province’s grain system since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, focusing on typical cases such as arranging subsidy loans, embezzling grain purchase funds, and illegal business decisions. Analyze the law of case occurrence, find the underlying causes, and propose governance countermeasures.
In the process of deepening the rectification of Wang Yinfeng’s illegal selection and employment of personnel, the Chongqing Grain Reserve Company’s party committee discovered that the subsidiary company had problems in recruiting the children of cadres without collective decision-making and illegally recruiting cadres.
After research, the Party Committee of the Municipal Grain Reserve Company made a collective interview with the subordinate enterprise team and terminated the labor contract of newly recruited personnel in accordance with relevant regulations.
Focusing on system shortcomings and regulatory loopholes, the discipline inspection and supervision agencies at all levels in Shaanxi Province supervised all relevant departments at all levels to highlight key tasks to investigate problems, establish a list of problem accounts, and promote high-quality rectification in place.
Up to now, 497 problems have been discovered through self-examination and self-correction by grain departments at all levels in the province, and 251 rectifications have been completed.
In addition, in the special inspections and inspections on food-related issues, the inspections have given full play to the strategic role of both the symptoms and root causes of inspections, and the promotion of the improvement of food security systems and mechanisms is one of the key tasks to promote the eradication of corruption in the grain purchase and sale system.
"For example, in response to a grain corruption case in a certain place, a special letter was sent to the municipal party committee to urge it to strengthen the analysis of the case and actively explore a new path for the modernization of the grain governance system." The person in charge of the Inspection Office of the Jiangsu Provincial Party Committee introduced.
To deeply solve the long-standing problems in the field of grain purchase and sale, it is necessary to introduce modern management methods and supervision models into the system and mechanism.
"For example, using modern technology such as big data to track grain purchases and sales in real time, collect grain purchases and sales information, conduct real-time analysis and judgment, and improve risk early warning and prevention and control capabilities." Zhuang Deshui suggested.
Canglin is real, the world is safe.
Disciplinary inspection and supervision organs at all levels must improve their political positions, strengthen their political consciousness, fully understand the serious harm of corruption in the field of grain purchase and sale, vigorously and deeply advance the special rectification of corruption in the field of grain purchase and sale, and resolutely curb the spread of corruption and unhealthy trends. , To protect the country's food security.
