Institutional reform: how to reform people's organizations such as the Federation of Literary and Art Circles, and will the nature of their participation in the public service change?

At present, the party and government organs at all levels, the National People's Congress, the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference, the Disciplinary Inspection Commission, the Court Procuratorate and other departments have completed the task of institutional reform. The reform plan of the three mass organizations, the trade union, the women's federation and the Youth League Committee, is closely related to the Federation of Literary and Art Circles. basically implemented. In accordance with the institutional reform of the Workers' Youth Women's League, the Federation of Literary and Art Circles has issued a similar guideline for institutional reform, and the reform measures in its content are consistent with the Workers' Youth Women's reform plan.

In fact, the reform of group organizations has been piloted in Shanghai since 2015. The national reform plan for group organizations was also promulgated and implemented after revision and improvement of the pilot program in Shanghai. In the reform of group organizations, the principle of "reducing the top to make up for the bottom" is implemented, and the allocation of power and service resources is tilted to the grassroots level. To solve the problems of “customization and aristocracy”, strengthen service functions and play a role as a bridge.

There are 25 people's organizations of various types in the country, including trade unions, women's federations, youth league committees, associations for science and technology, federations of literary and art circles, disabled people's federations, national accounting associations, the Red Cross, the China Council for the Promotion of International Trade, the Law Society, and the Federation of Industry and Commerce. Women are also set up as mass organizations, using administrative staff, and are managed in the same way as party committees with reference to the Civil Servant Law, which mainly refers to the municipal level and above. In the grass-roots counties and districts where the administrative establishment is tight, some are also set up as mass organizations, using the enterprise establishment and participating in the management of public affairs. There are also directly set up as listed agencies, internal agencies, and even public institutions, and there are only one shell agency. In addition to functions, the establishment of group organizations is also determined by the limits of local organizations and the amount of local administrative staff. Therefore, local conditions are complicated and the nature of organizations varies.

After the reform of the organization of the Workers, Youth and Women's Leagues, all people's organizations should use the same administrative establishment as the party committee organs, and manage with reference to the "Civil Servant Law". Those who previously used enterprise establishment or career management should also replace the administrative establishment. However, the crux that cannot be avoided is the limitation of the number of administrative establishments, and the possibility of unified replacement is unlikely. Therefore, if it is independently set up as a group agency, using the administrative establishment, or using the enterprise establishment but participating in the management, the status quo should be retained. If it cannot be set up independently, or if it is a public institution, its functions should be transferred to the corresponding party and government organs to become an internal institution or a listed institution, which is also the direction of reform. The only thing that is impossible is to continue to be set up as a public institution, because this does not conform to the functional nature of the group, nor does it conform to the principles of institutional reform of the group.

Liaoning Province, which has completed the pilot work of the reform of business classification, has clearly stated that for the former public officials who have lost the basis for their participation in the public office due to changes in the nature of their institutions, it has clearly stated that six categories of public officials, such as provincial examinations and group groups, can retain their public participation status. Free transfer between civil servant positions in government agencies. It shows that the identity and status of the public servants of the original group organization is the same as that of the civil servants of the party and government organs. However, the free transfer is premised on the vacant administrative establishment and the number of leadership positions, which is the most difficult part in the implementation process. The problems left over from the reform of public institutions and public officials in Liaoning Province are still being adjusted and adjusted. , there will be a new document policy. And the reform of the mass organizations involved, including the Federation of Literary and Art Circles, will also have a clear institutional reform policy similar to the reform plan for workers, youth and women.
