Reasonably and Effectively Utilizing the New Mechanism,and Adhering to and Strengthening the Party's Leadership over Audit Work
In May 2023,Xi Jinping,General Secretary of the Communist Party of China(CPC)Central Committee,made remarks while presiding over the first meeting of the Central Audit Commission of the 20th CPC Central Committee.Xi urged efforts to strengthen strategic planning and top-level design in the field of audit,and serve the Party and the country with effective audit supervision.The meeting emphasizes that Party committees at all levels should shoulder political responsibility and strengthen leadership over audit work,which is an important task to further strengthen and improve the centralized and unified leadership by the Party Central Committee over audit work.From the perspective of national audit history in China,the Party's leadership in auditing work is a historical inheritance and choice,despite different leadership methods in different historical periods.Ultimately,it is to better play the role of audit supervision;the authority of auditing is conferred by the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China,and serving as a tool of the Party and the country is a major responsibility of the audit institutions today;therefore,to improve the Party's leadership over audit work,we should make good use of the platforms of the Central Audit Commission and its General Office,streamline the working mechanism,and prevent the use of old methods under the new system.
