The 19th National Congress of the Communist Party of China has reviewed and approved the Report on the Work of the 18th Central Commission for Discipline Inspection. The Congress fully endorses its work.
The Congress holds that since the 18th National Congress of the Party, under the strong leadership of the Party Central Committee with Comrade Xi Jinping at its core, the central and local commissions for discipline inspection have strengthened their consciousness of the need to maintain political integrity, think in big-picture terms, follow the leadership core, and keep in alignment, and enhanced their confidence in the path, theory, system, and culture of socialism with Chinese characteristics. They have closely aligned themselves with the Party Central Committee and held the Party Constitution in great esteem as they performed their duties faithfully. Further steps have been taken to ensure full and strict governance over the Party, and the anti-corruption campaign has built into a crushing tide, is being consolidated, and continues to develop. They have upheld the authority and centralized, unified leadership of the Central Committee, helped foster a strong political underpinning for the Party's governance, and developed a contingent of discipline inspection and supervision officials who are loyal to the Party, have moral integrity, and demonstrate a keen sense of responsibility. In doing so, they have delivered excellent performance to the satisfaction of the Party and the people.
The Congress calls on the central and local commissions for discipline inspection to hold high the banner of socialism with Chinese characteristics and follow the guidance of Marxism-Leninism, Mao Zedong Thought, Deng Xiaoping Theory, the Theory of Three Represents, the Scientific Outlook on Development, and Xi Jinping Thought on Socialism with Chinese Characteristics for a New Era. It urges them to act in complete accord with the strategic plans made at the Congress, do their part in ensuring coordinated implementation of the five-sphere integrated plan (1) and the four-pronged comprehensive strategy, (2) develop still greater consciousness of the need to maintain political integrity, think in big-picture terms, follow the leadership core, and keep in alignment, and foster stronger confidence in the path, theory, system, and culture of socialism with Chinese characteristics. They are also urged to remain true to the Party's original aspiration and keep the Party's mission firmly in mind; work toward a fundamental improvement in the political ecosystem of the Party, with the focus on its leadership, capacity building, full and strict self-governance, conduct and integrity, and anti-corruption endeavor; and fulfill their duties to exercise oversight, enforce discipline, and ensure accountability as required by the Party Constitution. With this, they shall provide a strong underpinning for China's endeavor toward a decisive victory in building a moderately prosperous society in all respects and great success of socialism with Chinese characteristics for a new era, and contribute to realizing the Chinese Dream of national rejuvenation.
