China News Service, March 27. According to the website of the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection and the State Supervision Commission, on March 27, the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection and the State Supervision Commission announced the summary of the national investigation and punishment of spiritual problems in violation of the eight central regulations in February 2022.

In that month, a total of 5,834 cases of spiritual problems in violation of the eight central regulations were investigated and punished nationwide, and 9,100 people were criticized, educated, helped and dealt with, of which 6,046 people were punished by party discipline and government affairs.

This is the 102nd consecutive month that the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection and the State Supervision Commission has released monthly data.

  From the perspective of the types of problems investigated and dealt with, in terms of fulfilling duties, serving economic and social development, and ecological and environmental protection, inaction, inaction, arbitrary actions, and false actions have seriously affected high-quality development. In February, a total of 2,529 problems were investigated and dealt with across the country, accounting for 86.9% of the total number of formalism and bureaucracy problems.

The three types of issues investigated and dealt with, including illegally receiving valuable specialties and gifts, illegal eating and drinking, and illegally issuing allowances or benefits, accounted for 38.8%, 20.0%, and 18.3% of hedonism and extravagance, respectively.

  From the perspective of the level of investigation and punishment, in February, a total of 2 provincial and ministerial-level leading cadres were investigated and dealt with, 51 prefecture-level leading cadres were investigated and dealt with, 513 county-level leading cadres were investigated and dealt with, and 5,268 township-level and below cadres were investigated and dealt with.

Among them, the problem of cadres at the township level and below accounted for 90.3% of the total number of problems investigated and dealt with.

  In recent years, among the data on hedonism and extravagance that have been investigated and dealt with nationwide, issues such as illegally receiving valuable specialties and gifts, and illegal eating and drinking are more prominent.

Relevant cases have shown that unhealthy practices and corruption are interrelated and have the same root. There are not a few party members and leading cadres who have gone from a gift, a meal, and a card to the abyss of illegality and crime.

Disciplinary inspection and supervision organs at all levels must accurately grasp the phased characteristics of the integration of corruption and corruption, insist on focusing on whatever problems are prominent, severely punish and never tolerate corruption, and prevent corruption from the source.
