CPC Central Commission for Discipline Inspection: The first-in-command violates the law and is prone to chain reaction and even collapse.

  BEIJING, Nov. 23 (Xinhua)-Ma Senshu, director of the Regulation Office of the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection, recently made a guest interview on the CPC Central Commission for Discipline Inspection website to interpret the Regulations on Inner-Party Supervision in the Communist Party of China (CPC). He said that top leaders at all levels play a key role in promoting the cause of the party and the state. At the same time, the behavior of leading cadres has a leading role, and the top leaders who violate the law and discipline are most likely to have a catalytic and chain reaction, and even cause regional, systematic and collapsed corruption.

  Ma Senshu introduced that party constitution’s general program clearly pointed out that it is necessary to "strengthen supervision over the leading organs of the Party and leading cadres in party member, especially leading cadres". The guidelines and regulations all emphasize that to strengthen and standardize the political life within the party and strengthen inner-party supervision, we must start with leading cadres, especially senior cadres.

  Ma Senshu introduced that the general regulations clearly stipulate that the key targets of inner-party supervision are the party’s leading organs and leading cadres, especially the main leading cadres. The responsibilities and systems stipulated in other chapters are designed around supervising the top leaders, which not only makes the top leaders’ decision-making, employment and personal matters more open and transparent through organizational and institutional innovation; Moreover, more supervision probes are set up, and attention should be paid to finding clues from patrol supervision, discipline review, audit and justice, letters and visits and reports, so as to make them under the supervision of party organizations, party member and the masses.

  He introduced that in the relevant provisions, it is also required to strengthen the supervision of the main leaders of party organizations and leading cadres in key positions, focusing on supervising their political stance, strengthening party building, strictly administering the party, and implementing party resolutions, selecting and employing people fairly and honestly, and being honest and self-disciplined.

  The higher-level party organizations are mainly responsible for the lower-level party organizations, and they usually ask more questions and remind them, and correct problems in time when they are found. If members of the leading group find that the main person in charge has serious problems, they should raise them in time. The personal matters related to the main person in charge of the party organization should be made public in a certain range within the party and take the initiative to accept supervision.
