Thoughts on how to improve the ability of CPPCC members to participate in and discuss politics

In view of the above-mentioned situations, this article discusses some superficial understandings on how to improve the CPPCC's ability to participate in and discuss politics.

1. Strengthen the construction of "capacity seats"

Members of the CPPCC are the main body of the CPPCC. The quality of the CPPCC's participation in government affairs, the size of its role, the effectiveness of its work, and its status among the people To a large extent, it depends on the quality of members and their level of political participation. To strengthen their capacity building, attention should be paid to the following aspects:

1. Further optimize and improve the method for selecting CPPCC members. First, all walks of life should attach certain restrictions when recommending CPPCC members. The main purpose is to not only pay attention to representativeness, but also ensure that they are of high quality and can effectively perform their duties; second, during the recommendation stage, competition factors should be appropriately introduced to separate organizational recommendations and self-recommendations. Combined with the above, to enhance the participation awareness and political responsibility of CPPCC members; third, refer to the comprehensive evaluation system for non-public economic personnel of the city’s United Front Department, establish an evaluation system for CPPCC members for comprehensive consideration, and those who fail to meet the evaluation standards will not be considered for entry into the next term CPPCC.

2. Strengthen the combination of self-study and training and education. The CPPCC's functions of political consultation, democratic supervision, and participation in and deliberation of government affairs are not specific and cumbersome matters, but higher-level, macroscopic, and guiding suggestions, opinions, and strategies. They do not require certain cultural literacy or practical experience. It is difficult to be competent without a certain policy level. Therefore, each member of the CPPCC must address his or her own shortcomings in one or more aspects, proactively read more, ask more, listen more, and think more, open up more channels for social activities, expand their horizons and sources of information, and constantly enrich themselves. The CPPCC should also strengthen organizational training work, and regularly organize various special learning activities and outbound inspection and research activities by using existing resources within the organization or by inviting people in and out to improve political theory literacy, scientific knowledge literacy, and analytical judgment capabilities. wait.

3. Establish and improve the assessment and incentive mechanism. It is necessary to establish and improve an effective incentive and restraint mechanism to overcome inertia, maintain vitality, and stimulate the enthusiasm of CPPCC members to participate in and discuss politics. First, strengthen the assessment and management of members, establish a work reporting system for CPPCC members, carry out democratic evaluation activities for members, use the comprehensive evaluation system mentioned above to register and publicize the performance of members, and enhance the consciousness of CPPCC members in performing their duties; The second is to establish a "member reception day" system, and assign members of the CPPCC working liaison groups of each neighborhood to various communities to regularly receive community members and listen to public opinions; the third is to further standardize the selection process on the basis of the existing selection of outstanding CPPCC members. and selection mechanism, set an advanced example, so that members of the CPPCC can learn from it, have goals, and strive to be the first to achieve excellence; fourth, set up a member withdrawal mechanism during the term to deal with serious violations of the CPPCC charter or failure in evaluation, failure to participate in CPPCC activities, and those who play a less effective role. Weak committee members should be persuaded to quit and the blood should be replaced in time.

2. Broaden the channels for participation in and deliberation of politics

In order to meet the needs, we must broaden the scope of work, create flexible and diverse specific forms, and provide a broad stage for members to express their opinions and suggestions.

For example, in addition to the traditional form of political participation, we can give full play to the expertise and advantages of the CPPCC talent pool, establish special development research groups, and gather members and experts and scholars with higher academic levels in various fields to focus on major economic and social issues. Conduct in-depth research on issues, participate in research and planning of important topics, and provide scientific, forward-looking and operable reference opinions for leadership decision-making. The recently established "Economic and Social Development Decision-making Consultation and Research Association" in Zhonglou District aims to establish a higher-level "think tank" and "talent pool", improve the decision-making information and intellectual support system, and provide important information for the district's economic and social development. Provide consultation and discussion on policies, major issues and important plans to promote the work of the CPPCC to create a new situation.

On the basis of giving full play to the advantages of the sector, the Zhonglou District CPPCC extended the concept and scope of the sector, and joined hands with more than 60 entrepreneur members among the district CPPCC members to form an entrepreneur committee to encourage and guide enterprises Experts apply their talents and professional expertise to the fields they are familiar with and the issues they have the most say in, and carry out targeted lectures, information exchanges, visits and inspections, research and inspections, submission of proposals, reflection of social conditions and public opinion, etc. The activities have enabled political consultation and political advice to have both professional depth and social breadth, as well as scientific nature and representativeness, thus improving the level of participation in and deliberation of politics.

3. Innovating the working methods of the CPPCC

Innovation is the source of improving the CPPCC’s ability to participate in and discuss politics. Innovation in working methods can give the work of the CPPCC the vitality and freshness of the times and break the inherent Only within this old framework can the CPPCC radiate new vitality and vitality.

1. Innovative political coordination and research. Under the new situation, the People's Political Consultative Conference has encountered many comprehensive, overall, and forward-looking issues when participating in and discussing politics, especially major strategic issues related to regional development and national economy and people's livelihood. It is difficult for only a few people and one working department to solve them in depth. The reason why Zhonglou District has achieved great results in its research work in recent years. A number of research articles have been affirmed and adopted by the main leaders of the District Committee and District Government, and even attracted the attention of relevant city leaders, comes from the innovation of working methods. The first is to select a group of experts and scholars with insights, good thinking, and writing skills from members of the CPPCC, government agencies, and colleges and universities to serve as special researchers. Second, as needed, efforts should be made to combine committee members’ surveys with expert demonstrations; to combine CPPCC research with joint research with the government; to combine local research with outbound inspections; and to combine special research with follow-up inspections, etc., to strive to form a synergy of CPPCC research. The third is to release results on key issues that are of concern to leaders, have received strong responses, and are hotly discussed by the masses. Government leaders and department heads are invited to attend the Standing Committee of the District CPPCC to inform the CPPCC research results and raise questions and suggestions face to face to promote the effective and timely transformation of results.

2. Innovative proposals and work reflecting social conditions and public opinion. CPPCC proposals are one of the important ways for CPPCC members to participate in and discuss politics. In terms of the quality of proposals, the quality of proposals is controlled by strengthening the training of members, drafting reference topics for proposals in advance, ensuring that members are aware of the political power, and seriously filing cases. In the process of handling, it is necessary to improve the supervision system for key proposals, establish a coordination and communication promotion mechanism, and explore a mechanism to promote the implementation of proposals. The proposal committee should strengthen services, improve the evaluation and incentive mechanism, and give full play to the role of proposals in promoting government work. In terms of understanding and reflecting social conditions and public opinion, we must first look downward and go deep into the grassroots and the masses. The Zhonglou District CPPCC has established social conditions and public opinion studios in paired communities to strengthen communication and contact. In order to deeply understand the people's conditions, listen to the people's voices, and reflect Public opinion provides an effective way.

3. Innovate the content of democratic supervision. The democratic supervision of the CPPCC is an important part of my country's socialist supervision system. Strengthening democratic supervision is a requirement of the Party Central Committee, an urgent hope of the broad masses of the people, and an objective need for building a harmonious society. Under the new situation, democratic supervision work should focus on promoting the central work of the party committee and the government and close contact between the party and the people. While putting forward opinions and suggestions using basic forms such as surveys and inspections, committee proposals, social conditions and public opinion, it should also support those who hold positions of responsibility. Members of various types of work style supervisors participate in direct supervision, and constantly explore and improve new forms of special supervision, democratic evaluation, etc., so that the democratic supervision of the CPPCC has changed from "virtual" to "real" to achieve close cooperation between the departments being evaluated, members' willingness to participate, and the masses A generally welcomed effect.

IV. Create an excellent environment for performance of duties

The CPPCC organs are both the staff department and the service department. They must strive to create a harmonious, high-quality and efficient service environment and consciously embody service in the CPPCC All areas, levels and links of work provide a solid guarantee for the performance of functions in an all-round way and create an excellent environment.

1. Establish a long-term mechanism for the CPPCC organs to serve members. Straighten out the functions of various departments of the CPPCC, improve the day-to-day work system of the CPPCC committee members reception day system, meeting event notice system and other organs, and strengthen the ideological construction, style construction, capacity building, organizational construction, etc. of the organs.

2. Actively create conditions for committee members to be informed. Use modern communication and information network means to establish a working mechanism for daily contact with members, use innovative thinking and theories to create a rich and colorful public opinion platform such as the CPPCC website and publications, and promptly inform members of the CPPCC work dynamics, important regional and political situations, and relevant performance Arrangements and requirements for professional activities and provide information services to members. Efforts should be made to safeguard the democratic rights of members, protect the enthusiasm of members to participate in and discuss politics, and provide timely feedback on the handling of members' opinions and suggestions.

3. Strengthen coordination and communication. The main way for the CPPCC to perform its functions is through meetings and activities, and communication and coordination are particularly important. The CPPCC organs must do a good job in communication and coordination within the organization and with the party committee, government and relevant departments. They must also do a good job in communication and coordination between superiors and subordinates, and between the left and right, so as to form synergy and promote the smooth and orderly development of all work.
