Party policies help to improve working style

Many provincial Party committees have created detailed policies to improve their working style, as required by the country's core leadership.

With these measures, Party authorities are attempting to get closer to the public, experts said.

"We have seen lots of fresh working styles from the newly elected Party leaders such as fewer cliches at conferences, no traffic controls during inspection tours and so on," said Zhu Lijia, a professor of public administration research at the Chinese Academy of Governance.

But Party authorities should enhance supervision, and those who violate regulations should be punished, he added.

In a 10-item regulation, issued on Tuesday, the Party committee of Northwest China's Xinjiang Uygur autonomous region said that reception dinner times should be limited to less than 45 minutes in government agencies.

According to the regulation, the autonomous region's different departments are not allowed to treat each other to banquets at public expense, Xinjiang Daily reported.
