On the morning of December 7, 2018, a work scheduling video conference organized by the party committee of the ministry of ecology and environment was held in the multi-functional hall on the second floor of the organ of the Ministry of Ecology and Environment. Responsible persons of party organizations in 14 departments and units, including the Department of Water Ecology and Environment, the Department of Marine Ecology and Environment, and the Department of Atmospheric Environment, reported on the progress of relevant work one by one.
The working methods and methods of various departments and units are different, but they revolve around the same theme - "taking cases as a lesson and creating a good political ecology" special governance. The monthly scheduling video conference for all departments and units like this is the fourth time since the special governance was carried out.
Earlier, the discipline inspection and supervision team of the Central Discipline Inspection Commission and the State Supervision Commission in the Ministry of Ecology and Environment conducted a case review of Meng Wei, former deputy secretary of the party committee and president of the China Academy of Environmental Sciences, for serious violations of discipline. In order to give full play to the warning education and root cause role of Meng Wei's case, from July to December 2018, the party group of the Ministry of Ecology and Environment and the discipline inspection and supervision group stationed in the ministry organized a special governance of "taking the case as a lesson and creating a good political ecology" in the national ecological environmental protection system, promoting the comprehensive and strict management of the ecological environmental protection system to develop in depth, creating a good political ecology with a clean and healthy atmosphere, and focusing on building an iron army of ecological environmental protection.
Take the case to clarify the discipline, cite it as a mirror -
At about 15:00 on April 4, 2018, the website of the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection and the State Supervision Commission published the news: Meng Wei was expelled from the party and public office for serious violations of discipline, and was transferred to the judicial organs for handling according to law.
Meng Wei, 62, has been at the Academy of Environmental Sciences since he joined the workforce and served as its president for 15 years. At the same time, Meng Wei also served as the vice chairman of the 12th National People's Congress Environmental Protection and Assets Management Committee and the chief engineer of the national water special technology, and was an academician of the Chinese Academy of Engineering and a deputy to the National People's Congress.
"Meng Wei's political transformation and economic greed have transformed himself from a polluter to a 'source of pollution' for political ecology and natural ecology, which has caused a serious and bad impact in the field of ecological environmental protection and the scientific and technological circles." Li Ganjie, secretary of the party group and minister of the Ministry of Ecology and Environment, said that the case not only shows that some party members and cadres have diluted their political consciousness and disregarded discipline and rules, but also exposed the problems of some party organizations' failure to implement the "two responsibilities" and laxity in managing the party and governing the party, which is a political ecological case in the process of ecological civilization construction.
The Second Plenary Session of the Nineteenth Central Discipline Inspection Commission clearly demanded that the political nature of the warning education be enhanced, and that all cases of violations of discipline and law by party-member leading cadres that have been investigated and concluded must be carried out in their own localities and departments and units, make good use of negative teaching materials, convene special meetings on democratic life, draw lessons from each other, use cases to clarify discipline, and let party members and cadres take them as mirrors.
The party group of the Ministry of Ecology and Environment carefully analyzed the bad nature and profound lessons of Meng Wei's case, and in April last year, the special education and rectification of "taking the case as a lesson and reshaping a good political ecology" was carried out in the Academy of Environmental Sciences, and a number of ministry leaders went to the Academy of Environmental Sciences for on-site guidance 11 times.
"Fighting the battle against pollution is a big battle, a hard battle, and a bitter battle." At the National Conference on Eco-environmental Protection held in May last year, General Secretary Xi Jinping clearly pointed out that it is necessary to build an iron army of ecological environmental protection, with strong politics, high skills, hard work style, dare to take responsibility, and especially able to bear hardships, especially able to fight, and especially able to contribute.
On July 13 last year, the discipline inspection and supervision team of the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection and the State Supervision Commission in the Ministry of Ecology and Environment issued a disciplinary inspection recommendation to the party group of the ministry, suggesting that the special governance work of "taking cases as a lesson and creating a good political ecology" should be organized and carried out throughout the system to promote ecological civilization with political clarity.
The proposal clearly pointed out that "although Meng Wei's serious violation of discipline case mainly exposed his own violations of discipline and law and corruption, to a certain extent, it also reflected the weak links and shortcomings in the comprehensive and strict management of the party at all levels at all levels," and put forward 20 specific suggestions to the party group of the ministry from five aspects.
On July 31 last year, the Ministry of Ecology and Environment held a mobilization and deployment meeting for the special governance work of the national ecological and environmental protection system to "take the case as a lesson and create a good political ecology". Through the video conference system, more than 21,000 people in 2,085 sub-venues participated in the mobilization and deployment, and a political ecological "cleaning" and "great restoration" began.
From the strict management of the political life within the Party --
"If I had heard such direct criticism earlier, I probably wouldn't have made a mistake."
On the morning of September 28 last year, a special meeting was held here in the 310 party group meeting room of the Ministry of Ecology and Environment.
"In accordance with the requirements of the Central Discipline Inspection Commission and the State Supervision Commission, the discipline inspection and supervision group stationed in the ministry suggested that the party group of the ministry carry out special governance of 'taking the case as a lesson and creating a good political ecology' in the national ecological and environmental protection system." According to the special governance work plan, the party group of the ministry held a special democratic life meeting today. Li Ganjie's speech of the presidency opened the prelude to the meeting.
The Central Commission for Discipline Inspection and the State Supervision Commission attach great importance to the special democratic life meeting held by the party group of the Ministry of Ecology and Environment, and Chen Xiaojiang, deputy secretary of the Central Discipline Inspection Commission and deputy director of the State Supervision Commission, and other relevant leaders attended the meeting for on-site guidance. Chen Xiaojiang demanded that the party leading group of the Ministry of Ecology and Environment should earnestly shoulder the political responsibility of managing the party and administering the party, take political construction as the command, solemnize the political life within the party, and promote the restoration of the natural ecology of beautiful mountains and clear waters with a clean and healthy political ecology. Before the meeting, Chen Xiaojiang also made a special trip to the ministry to conduct in-depth exchanges with Li Ganjie, secretary of the party leading group of the ministry, on the opening of a special topic democratic life meeting, pointing out that the special topic democratic life meeting must go straight to the "special topic," really find out the problems accurately, find enough, analyze the causes thoroughly, adhere to high standards and strict requirements, and earnestly achieve results.
If the party wants to manage the party, it must start from the political life within the party, and to administer the party strictly, it must start from the political life within the party. Democratic life will be an important content of the political life within the party, an important way to carry forward inner-party democracy, strengthen supervision within the party, and rely on the leading body's own strength to resolve contradictions and problems.
"The lessons of the Meng Wei case must be deeply absorbed, and the problems exposed must be seriously faced." At the special meeting on democratic life, Li Ganjie first gave a briefing on the preparations for the meeting, and on behalf of the party group of the ministry, he made a comparative inspection, deeply searched for the conspicuous problems existing in the party group of the ministry, analyzed the deep-seated causes, and proposed measures for improvement.
According to reports, in order to open this special democratic life meeting, the party group of the ministry held three special forums to listen to the opinions and suggestions of the party and government leaders of the ministry system, scientific research workers and young cadres, collected more than 160 opinions and suggestions of various types, and sorted out and summarized 28 opinions and suggestions in 4 aspects. Members of the leading body of the ministry, members of the leading body of the ministry and responsible persons of relevant departments have in-depth talks and exchange ideas.
Thematic democratic life meetings must closely follow the word "specialized". Taking the case as a lesson, it is necessary to focus on the causes of the Meng Wei case, the harm caused, the problems exposed, and the lessons learned for in-depth analysis. Every member of the party group of the ministry adheres to the orientation of problems when personally checking and inspecting, puts himself in the position, puts his work in it, and puts his responsibilities into it, reflects on his shortcomings in managing the party and governing the party, and carries out serious and serious criticism and self-criticism. The members of the party group of the ministry put forward 48 criticisms to each other, which not only saw the truth, but also had a spicy taste, and set an example for the effective and orderly promotion of the special governance of the whole system.
"All 269 grassroots party organizations in the ministry system have held special democratic life meetings or organizational life meetings. Party organizations at all levels strictly control the materials of each party member's comparative inspection, and all those whose self-analysis is not profound or in place are all rewritten back, and only after all the materials are qualified can they hold a meeting. Sun Honglin, deputy secretary of the party committee and secretary of the Discipline Inspection Commission of the ministry organs, told reporters that the party group of the ministry also sent 27 supervision groups to strictly control the political situation throughout the process, and one party branch was stopped on the spot 4 times because of criticism and self-criticism to avoid the important and light, and it was not painful or itchy.
A comrade who had just been punished said: "If I had participated in such an organizational life meeting earlier and heard such direct criticism earlier, I might not have made a mistake." ”
Heavy "cases" are more important to "jian" --
"Truly integrate every party member cadre into it, from an 'outsider' to a 'person in the bureau'"
On June 26 last year, Li Haisheng, deputy secretary of the party committee and president of the Academy of Environmental Sciences, and other members of the party committee team of the academy spent an unforgettable night. On this day, the special democratic life meeting of the Party Committee of the Academy will be held from 7:30 p.m. to 1:30 a.m. the next day.
"We have caught up with the spring of the development of ecological environmental protection and scientific and technological innovation, but in recent years, due to Meng Wei's serious violations of discipline and laws, the Institute of Environmental Sciences has been in a situation of 'scattered, chaotic, and polluted' of people's hearts, lax discipline, and political and ecological pollution, and missed a great opportunity for development." Li Haisheng told reporters that the Academy of Environmental Sciences took the lead in carrying out special work, through holding organizational life meetings, carrying out heart-to-heart talks, and "moving the real and hard" to grasp rectification, the mental outlook of the whole hospital has been renewed, "We organized cadres and workers to fill out questionnaires, and the results of the 1094 questionnaires recovered show that in the past, many people were indifferent to the development of the Academy of Environmental Sciences, and the state of idleness and slackness changed significantly. ”
As the deputy director of the Ecological Environment Department in charge of the work of the Academy of Environmental Sciences, Huang Runqiu went to the Academy of Environmental Sciences 6 times during the special governance work, and also participated in the special democratic life meeting of the party committee of the academy. He told reporters that once when an emergency special inspection task was carried out, the Institute of Environmental Sciences received a notice at 1 a.m., and more than 200 people were assembled and ready to go at 8:00 a.m., which made both inside and outside the hospital feel very emotional, "Acting so quickly, which was unimaginable before."
"This special crackdown has placed more emphasis on 'cases' and 'lessons,' and has really enabled every party member and cadre to integrate into it, from an 'outsider' to a 'person in the bureau,' with fewer people complaining about difficulties and taking the initiative to take the initiative to take responsibility." Zou Shoumin, director of the Department of Science and Technology and Finance, who has worked at the Academy of Environmental Sciences, said, "In the past three decades of participating in the work, I feel that this is the most solid political activity grasped by the party group of the ministry. ”
Also sympathetic to this is Guo Chengzhan, director of the Department of Safety Supervision of Nuclear Facilities. Talking about special governance, he said five "nevers" to reporters -- never attached so much importance to it, never pushed it so vigorously, never been so serious and serious, never been so real and hard-hitting, and never been so cohesive.
In addition to the ministries and organs, the local ecological and environmental departments (bureaus) have also carried out special governance in light of reality, and through the serious political life within the party, have built a strict management system that manages ideology, work, style, and discipline.
According to statistics, from June to December 2018, in the work of strengthening supervision in the key areas of the blue sky defense war, the ecological environmental protection system dispatched a total of 10,300 people to carry out 13 rounds of on-site supervision and inspection.
"This special governance has made great innovations from organizational forms to methods and measures, and has conducted in-depth analysis of the things around the people around it, and the sense of shock and impact are very strong." Xing Changcheng, a cadre of the Second Inspector of the Central Ecological and Environmental Protection Supervision Office, said that the special management has been carried out from point to point, from the ministry to the whole system, and has continued to tighten the screws of managing the party and ruling the party, dispelling the "political haze" that affects the ecological and environmental protection system.
"In the selection and employment of personnel, political standards are highlighted, ability is highlighted, and work style is highlighted, and the guiding role is taking shape." Wang Zhibin, deputy director of the Department of Administrative System and Personnel, said that through special management, party members and cadres have united their hearts, their awareness of discipline and rules has been markedly enhanced, and their mental outlook has been significantly improved.
"Since the special management, the discipline inspection and supervision group stationed in the ministry has adhered to the unity of problem orientation and goal orientation, on the one hand, encouraging relevant personnel to admit their mistakes and repent and correct their mistakes, and a total of 35 people have taken the initiative to explain the problems of violating discipline; on the other hand, through strict discipline enforcement, a high-pressure deterrent has been formed, so that the supervision responsibility can be implemented in a down-to-earth manner." The person in charge of the discipline inspection and supervision team stationed in the ministry said that this special governance is only the starting point, and the next step is to adhere to the political construction as the guide, thoroughly implement Xi Jinping Thought on Ecological Civilization, fully perform supervision duties, establish and improve the long-term mechanism for managing the party and governing the party, and make unremitting efforts to build a "green water and green mountains" of the political ecology of the ecological environmental protection system and build a beautiful China.
