I. Deeply Understanding the Major Significance of Deepening the Reform of the Party Building System

一、深刻认识深化党的建设制度改革的重大意义

To govern the country, the Party must first be governed; only when the Party thrives can the country be strong. Since the 18th National Congress of the CPC, under the strong leadership of the Party Central Committee with Comrade Xi Jinping at its core, the reform of the Party building system has been actively, steadily, solidly, and deeply advanced. The systematic nature, creativity, and effectiveness of comprehensive and strict governance of the Party have continuously improved, the Party's creativity, cohesion, and combat effectiveness have continuously strengthened, the Party's image has taken on a completely new look, and a clean and upright political ecosystem has become prevalent, providing a strong political guarantee for comprehensively deepening reform and advancing the great cause of building a strong country and national rejuvenation. Comprehensive and strict governance of the Party is always on the way, and the Party's self-revolution is always on the way. The reform of the Party building system is always ongoing, never completed. At the new historical starting point, deepening the reform of the Party building system and improving the Party building system and mechanism concerns the overall situation of Chinese-path modernization construction and concerns the long-term stability of the country and the sustainable development of the nation.

治国必先治党，党兴才能国强。党的十八大以来，在以习近平同志为核心的党中央坚强领导下，党的建设制度改革积极稳妥、扎实深入，全面从严治党系统性、创造性、实效性不断提高，党的创造力、凝聚力、战斗力不断增强，党的面貌焕然一新，风清气正的良好政治生态蔚然成风，为全面深化改革和推进强国建设、民族复兴伟业提供了坚强政治保证。全面从严治党永远在路上，党的自我革命永远在路上。党的建设制度改革只有进行时，没有完成时。在新的历史起点上，深化党的建设制度改革、完善党的建设制度机制，事关中国式现代化建设全局，事关国家长治久安、民族永续发展。

Deepening the reform of the Party building system is an inherent requirement for further comprehensively deepening reform and advancing the modernization of the national governance system and governance capacity. The reform of the Party building system is not only an important guarantee for the success of comprehensively deepening reform but also an important part of comprehensively deepening reform. Improving and developing the system of socialism with Chinese characteristics and advancing the modernization of the national governance system and governance capacity inherently include improving the Party's leadership system and governance methods, as well as the maturity and finalization of the Party building system. Since the 18th National Congress of the CPC, by comprehensively deepening reform to improve various systems, the system of socialism with Chinese characteristics has been promoted to become more mature and finalized, the level of modernization of the national governance system and governance capacity has significantly improved, providing a strong institutional guarantee for completing the building of a moderately prosperous society in all respects. Improving the system of socialism with Chinese characteristics is a dynamic process that will inevitably develop with the development of practice. Facing new situations and tasks, it is necessary to further comprehensively deepen reform, continue to improve various systems and mechanisms including the reform of the Party building system, consolidate foundations, enhance advantages, make up for shortcomings, and strengthen weak points, continuously better transforming China's institutional advantages into national governance effectiveness.

深化党的建设制度改革，是进一步全面深化改革、推进国家治理体系和治理能力现代化的题中应有之义。党的建设制度改革既是全面深化改革取得成功的重要保证，也是全面深化改革的重要内容。完善和发展中国特色社会主义制度，推进国家治理体系和治理能力现代化，内在地包含着完善党的领导体制和执政方式，以及党的建设制度的成熟和定型。党的十八大以来，通过全面深化改革完善各方面制度，推动中国特色社会主义制度更加成熟更加定型，国家治理体系和治理能力现代化水平明显提高，为全面建成小康社会提供了有力制度保障。完善中国特色社会主义制度是一个动态过程，必然随着实践发展而不断发展。面对新的形势和任务，必须进一步全面深化改革，继续完善包括党的建设制度改革在内的各方面制度机制，固根基、扬优势、补短板、强弱项，不断把我国制度优势更好转化为国家治理效能。

Deepening the reform of the Party building system is an inherent requirement for mobilizing the enthusiasm, initiative, and creativity of the entire Party in grasping reform and promoting development. Reform is forced by problems and deepened in the continuous resolution of problems. Reform can neither be achieved overnight nor once and for all. In the early period of reform and opening up, successfully "cutting a bloody path" [2]2 "Cutting a bloody path" refers to the pioneering and risky efforts of the early reform and opening up period, particularly the establishment of special economic zones, which broke through ideological and institutional barriers. was inseparable from the support, endorsement, and implementation of reform by the vast majority of Party members and cadres. On the new journey of building a strong country and national rejuvenation, promoting the implementation of various reform tasks places new and higher demands on the mental state, ideological concepts, quality and ability, work style, and image of Party members and cadres. As comprehensively deepening reform advances in depth, it inevitably touches upon deep-seated interest patterns and social relations, encountering increasing resistance and facing more hidden reefs, undercurrents, and whirlpools. This requires even more courage and responsibility to gnaw on hard bones and wade through dangerous shoals, as well as reform promoters and doers who are pragmatic and truth-seeking. On the New Era and new journey, to take comprehensively deepening reform as the fundamental driving force for advancing Chinese-path modernization and as an important lever for stabilizing the overall situation, responding to changes, and opening up new prospects, it is necessary to deepen the reform of the Party building system and mobilize the enthusiasm, initiative, and creativity of the entire Party in grasping reform and promoting development.

深化党的建设制度改革，是调动全党抓改革促发展积极性、主动性、创造性的内在要求。改革由问题倒逼而产生，又在不断解决问题中得以深化。改革既不可能一蹴而就，也不可能一劳永逸。改革开放初期，成功“杀出一条血路”，离不开广大党员、干部对改革的支持拥护和贯彻落实。在强国建设、民族复兴的新征程上，推动改革各项任务落实，对党员、干部精神状态、思想观念、素质能力、作风形象提出了新的更高要求。随着全面深化改革向纵深推进，不可避免触及深层次利益格局和社会关系，遇到的阻力越来越大，面对的暗礁、潜流、漩涡越来越多，更需要敢于啃硬骨头、敢于涉险滩的勇气与担当，需要求真务实的改革促进派、实干家。新时代新征程，要把全面深化改革作为推进中国式现代化的根本动力，作为稳大局、应变局、开新局的重要抓手，必须深化党的建设制度改革，调动全党抓改革促发展的积极性、主动性、创造性。

Deepening the reform of the Party building system is an inevitable requirement for deeply advancing the great new project of Party building and building a stronger and more powerful Marxist ruling party. The key to comprehensively building a modern socialist country and comprehensively advancing the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation lies in the Party. History has proven and will continue to prove that without the leadership of the Communist Party of China, national rejuvenation would inevitably be a utopian socialism. [3]3 "Utopian socialism" here is used as a rhetorical contrast to scientific socialism, implying that without the Party's leadership, national rejuvenation would be an unrealistic fantasy. For our Party to always remain the vanguard of the times, the backbone of the nation, and always remain a Marxist ruling party, it must itself always be strong and must always maintain the sobriety and determination to solve the unique problems of a large party. [4]4 "Unique problems of a large party" is a term used by Xi Jinping to refer to the distinctive challenges faced by a long-governing, mass party with over 90 million members, such as bureaucratic inertia, ideological slackness, and corruption. Through comprehensive and strict governance of the Party since the 18th National Congress of the CPC, we have solved many prominent problems within the Party, but the tests of governance, reform and opening up, the market economy, and the external environment that the Party faces will exist for a long time, and the dangers of mental slackness, insufficient capability, detachment from the masses, and passive corruption will exist for a long time. On the New Era and new journey, only by vigorously advancing the great new project of Party building, deepening the reform of the Party building system, eliminating all factors that harm the Party's advanced nature and purity, clearing away all viruses that erode the Party's healthy body, and improving the Party's leadership level and governance level, can our Party better undertake its glorious and arduous historical mission.

深化党的建设制度改革，是深入推进党的建设新的伟大工程、建设更加坚强有力的马克思主义执政党的必然要求。全面建设社会主义现代化国家、全面推进中华民族伟大复兴，关键在党。历史已经并将继续证明，没有中国共产党的领导，民族复兴必然是空想。我们党要始终成为时代先锋、民族脊梁，始终成为马克思主义执政党，自身必须始终过硬，必须时刻保持解决大党独有难题的清醒和坚定。经过党的十八大以来的全面从严治党，我们解决了党内许多突出问题，但党面临的执政考验、改革开放考验、市场经济考验、外部环境考验将长期存在，精神懈怠危险、能力不足危险、脱离群众危险、消极腐败危险将长期存在。新时代新征程，只有大力推进党的建设新的伟大工程，深化党的建设制度改革，消除一切损害党的先进性和纯洁性的因素，清除一切侵蚀党的健康肌体的病毒，提高党的领导水平和执政水平，我们党才能更好地承担起光荣而艰巨的历史使命。

II. Firmly Grasping the Basic Requirements for Deepening the Reform of the Party Building System

二、牢牢把握深化党的建设制度改革的基本要求

The effectiveness of the reform of the Party building system directly affects the realization of the overall goal of comprehensively deepening reform. To thoroughly implement the spirit of the "Decision," it is necessary to adhere to the correct direction of reform, firmly grasp the basic requirements, and steadily and orderly advance the reform of the Party building system.

党的建设制度改革成效如何，直接关系着全面深化改革总目标的实现。深入贯彻《决定》精神，必须坚持正确改革方向，牢牢把握基本要求，稳妥有序推进党的建设制度改革。

Adhere to Xi Jinping Thought on Socialism with Chinese Characteristics for a New Era as the scientific guidance. As an important component of Xi Jinping Thought on Socialism with Chinese Characteristics for a New Era, General Secretary Xi Jinping's important thoughts on Party building, centered on the main theme of comprehensive and strict governance of the Party, profoundly elucidate the fundamental principles, scientific layout, value pursuits, and key tasks of Party building, profoundly answer the major questions of what kind of long-term Marxist ruling party to build and how to build a long-term Marxist ruling party, and greatly enrich and develop Marxist party-building theory. General Secretary Xi Jinping's series of new ideas, new viewpoints, and new conclusions on comprehensively deepening reform summarize and review the great course of reform and opening up, profoundly grasp the domestic and international development trends, and profoundly answer the epochal questions of why to comprehensively deepen reform, where to deepen reform, and how to comprehensively deepen reform in the process of building socialism with Chinese characteristics, providing important guiding significance for systematically grasping the inherent laws and key tasks of comprehensively deepening reform. On the new journey, to deepen the reform of the Party building system, it is necessary to take Xi Jinping Thought on Socialism with Chinese Characteristics for a New Era, especially General Secretary Xi Jinping's important thoughts on Party building and the series of new ideas, new viewpoints, and new conclusions on comprehensively deepening reform, as the general guideline, general basis, and general direction, frequently benchmark and align, promptly correct deviations, and ensure that the reform always advances along the correct political direction.

坚持以习近平新时代中国特色社会主义思想为科学指引。作为习近平新时代中国特色社会主义思想的重要组成部分，习近平总书记关于党的建设的重要思想围绕全面从严治党这个主题主线，深刻阐明了党的建设的根本原则、科学布局、价值追求、重点任务，深刻回答了建设什么样的长期执政的马克思主义政党、怎样建设长期执政的马克思主义政党的重大问题，极大丰富和发展了马克思主义建党学说。习近平总书记关于全面深化改革的一系列新思想、新观点、新论断，总结回顾改革开放的伟大历程，深刻把握国内国际发展大势，深刻回答在中国特色社会主义建设过程中为什么要全面深化改革、全面深化改革往哪里改、怎么样全面深化改革的时代课题，对于系统把握全面深化改革的内在规律和重点任务，具有重要指导意义。新征程上，深化党的建设制度改革，必须以习近平新时代中国特色社会主义思想特别是习近平总书记关于党的建设的重要思想、关于全面深化改革的一系列新思想新观点新论断为总遵循、总依据、总指引，经常对标对表、及时校正纠偏，确保改革始终沿着正确政治方向前进。

Adhere to the correct political direction of the “three ‘must not changes’.” In the reform of the Party building system, no matter what is reformed or how far the reform goes, it is necessary to grasp the correct political direction of the “three ‘must not changes’,” namely, “the Party’s centralized and unified leadership over reform must not change, the overall goal of improving and developing the system of socialism with Chinese characteristics and advancing the modernization of the national governance system and governance capacity must not change, and the people-centered value orientation of reform must not change.” [5]5 The “three ‘must not changes’” is a formulation from the 2018 speech by Xi Jinping at the celebration of the 40th anniversary of reform and opening up, emphasizing the non-negotiable political direction of reform. It is particularly necessary to point out that the fundamental direction of deepening the reform of the Party building system is to strengthen and improve the Party’s leadership, uphold the Party’s overall leadership, firmly safeguard the authority of the Party Central Committee and its centralized and unified leadership, fully leverage the Party’s core leadership role in overseeing the overall situation and coordinating all parties, integrate Party leadership into all aspects and the entire process of reform, ensure that reform always advances along the correct political direction, and ensure that the Party always remains the strong leading core of the cause of socialism with Chinese characteristics. Through deepening reform, Party leadership must be better embodied in all aspects and the entire process of governing the country, and the leadership system and working mechanisms through which the Party oversees the overall situation and coordinates all parties must be improved, thereby facilitating the implementation of the Party’s political leadership, ideological leadership, and organizational leadership, and facilitating the implementation of the Party’s basic theory, basic line, and basic strategy.

坚持三个“不能变”的正确政治方向。党的建设制度改革，无论改什么、改到哪一步，必须把握好坚持三个“不能变”的正确政治方向，即“坚持党对改革的集中统一领导不能变，完善和发展中国特色社会主义制度、推进国家治理体系和治理能力现代化的总目标不能变，坚持以人民为中心的改革价值取向不能变”。尤其需要指出，深化党的建设制度改革，根本方向是加强和改善党的领导，坚持党的全面领导，坚定维护党中央权威和集中统一领导，充分发挥党总揽全局、协调各方的领导核心作用，把党的领导贯穿改革各方面全过程，确保改革始终沿着正确政治方向前进，确保党始终成为中国特色社会主义事业的坚强领导核心。要通过深化改革，把党的领导更好体现到治国理政各方面全过程，完善党总揽全局、协调各方的领导体制和工作机制，从而更加有利于党的政治领导、思想领导、组织领导的落实，有利于党的基本理论、基本路线、基本方略的贯彻。

Adhere to taking mobilizing the enthusiasm, initiative, and creativity of the entire Party in promoting reform and development as the focal point. The key to implementing the “Decision” [6]6 The “Decision” refers to the “Decision of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China on Further Comprehensively Deepening Reform and Promoting Chinese-style Modernization,” adopted at the Third Plenary Session of the 20th Central Committee in July 2024. lies in the Party, especially Party cadres at all levels. Deepening the reform of the Party building system must adhere to a problem-oriented approach, targeting key and difficult issues in Party building and prominent problems strongly reflected by the masses, focusing on mobilizing the enthusiasm, initiative, and creativity of Party organizations at all levels and the vast number of Party members and cadres in participating in reform, creating a favorable environment that encourages and supports reform, strengthening the orientation of selecting and employing personnel who dare to take responsibility and tackle difficulties, promoting Party organizations at all levels and the vast number of Party members and cadres to become promoters and doers of reform and development, driving the whole society to understand, support, and participate in reform, and injecting strong momentum into Chinese-path modernization.

坚持以调动全党抓改革促发展的积极性、主动性、创造性为着力点。抓好《决定》的贯彻落实，关键在党，特别是党的各级干部。深化党的建设制度改革，要坚持问题导向，针对党的建设中的重点难点问题、群众反映强烈的突出问题，着眼调动各级党组织和广大党员、干部投身改革的积极性、主动性、创造性，营造鼓励改革、支持改革的良好环境，强化敢于担当、攻坚克难的用人导向，推动各级党组织和广大党员、干部争做改革发展的促进派和实干家，带动全社会理解改革、支持改革、参与改革，为中国式现代化注入强劲动力。

III. Unswervingly Deepen the Reform of the Party Building System

三、坚定不移将党的建设制度改革引向深入

The current and future period is a critical period for implementing the reform tasks of the Party building system as deployed in the “Decision.” To deepen the reform of the Party building system in accordance with the established timetable and roadmap, it is necessary to strengthen responsibility and ensure implementation, promoting the successive implementation of various reform measures and achieving solid results.

当前和今后一个时期，是落实《决定》部署的党的建设制度改革任务的攻坚期。按照既定的时间表、路线图把党的建设制度改革引向深入，必须强化责任担当抓落实，推动各项改革举措相继落地、渐次开花，取得扎扎实实成效。

Establish and improve the long-term mechanism of using learning to forge the soul, enhance wisdom, correct conduct, and promote action. [7]7 This phrase is a four-character slogan summarizing the goals of Party study campaigns: using learning to forge the soul (以学铸魂), enhance wisdom (以学增智), correct conduct (以学正风), and promote action (以学促干). Fully implement the “first agenda” system, the leadership study group system, and the special Party lecture system, strengthen the study and education of the Party Constitution, intensify Party spirit education, and ensure regular learning and education for Party members and cadres, promoting the study and implementation of Xi Jinping Thought on Socialism with Chinese Characteristics for a New Era to go deeper, more practical, and into the heart. Strengthen political education and political training for Party members and cadres, focus on training Party members and cadres in their ability to perform their duties, and strive to enhance political ability, thinking ability, and practical ability. Deeply study and implement General Secretary Xi Jinping’s important thoughts on the Party’s self-revolution, deepen the implementation of the spirit of the Eight-Point Regulations and its implementation rules, practice the Party’s mass line, implement the “going down to the grassroots” system, [8]8 “Going down to the grassroots” (四下基层) is a work method originating from Xi Jinping’s tenure in Fujian in the 1980s, requiring officials to go to the grassroots level for propaganda, investigation, reception of petitioners, and on-site problem-solving. regularly conduct political check-ups for leading bodies, earnestly carry out discipline education, persistently rectify formalism and bureaucracy, vigorously promote a pragmatic style, promote a clean style, and cultivate a frugal style, using the spirit of thorough self-revolution to sweep away political dust, purify the political soul, and correct behavioral deviations. Adhere to the integration of learning, thinking, and application, and the unity of knowledge, belief, and action, correct the orientation of action, enhance the motivation for action, form a synergy for action, and implement the decisions and deployments of the Party Central Committee without compromise.

建立健全以学铸魂、以学增智、以学正风、以学促干长效机制。全面贯彻落实“第一议题”制度、领导班子读书班制度、专题党课制度，加强党章学习教育，强化党性教育，抓实党员、干部经常性学习教育，推动学习贯彻习近平新时代中国特色社会主义思想走深走实走心。加强党员、干部政治教育和政治训练，抓好党员、干部履职能力培训，着力提升政治能力、思维能力、实践能力。深入学习贯彻习近平总书记关于党的自我革命的重要思想，深化落实中央八项规定及其实施细则精神，践行党的群众路线、落实“四下基层”制度，经常性开展领导班子政治体检、扎实开展纪律教育，持之以恒纠治形式主义、官僚主义，大兴务实之风、弘扬清廉之风、养成俭朴之风，以彻底的自我革命精神打扫政治灰尘、净化政治灵魂、纠正行为偏差。坚持学思用贯通、知信行统一，匡正干的导向，增强干的动力，形成干的合力，不折不扣贯彻落实党中央决策部署。

Continuously deepen the reform of the cadre and personnel system. Implement the general requirements for Party building in the New Era and the Party’s organizational line for the New Era, implement the standards for good cadres in the New Era, adhere to the principle of the Party managing cadres, clearly establish the correct orientation for selecting and appointing personnel, and vigorously select cadres who are politically reliable, dare to take responsibility, are keen on reform, have outstanding achievements, and are clean and honest. Improve the strict management mechanism for managing thoughts, work, style, and discipline, focus on solving the problems of cadres acting recklessly, not acting, not daring to act, and not acting well, promote the ability of cadres to move up and down, enter and exit, and form a good situation where the capable are promoted, the excellent are rewarded, the mediocre are demoted, and the inferior are eliminated. Focus on improving the working mechanism for effectively preventing and correcting deviations in the outlook on political performance, organize Party members and cadres to deeply study and understand General Secretary Xi Jinping’s important expositions on establishing and practicing the correct outlook on political performance, and solve the problems of “for whom to establish political performance, what kind of political performance to establish, and by what means to establish political performance”; incorporate the establishment and practice of the correct outlook on political performance into important contents of inspections and tours, cadre assessment and evaluation, and audit rectification supervision, promptly discover and correct deviations and misalignments in the outlook on political performance; leverage the demonstration and warning role of positive and negative models, educate and guide Party members and cadres to create achievements that stand the test of practice, the people, and history. Implement the “three distinctions,” [9]9 The “three distinctions” (三个区分开来) is a policy framework proposed by Xi Jinping to distinguish between errors in reform exploration, violations of discipline, and illegal acts, aiming to protect cadres who take responsibility. highly unify strict management and supervision with encouraging responsibility and action, continuously promote precise and standardized accountability and punishment, strengthen the incentive and protection of cadres who dare to take responsibility and act well, and unequivocally take responsibility for those who take responsibility, be responsible for those who are responsible, support those who do things, and encourage those who innovate. Timely select, publicize, and commend advanced models among Party members and cadres, and increase care and support for grassroots cadres, especially those in areas with difficult conditions.

持续深化干部人事制度改革。贯彻新时代党的建设总要求和新时代党的组织路线，落实新时代好干部标准，坚持党管干部原则，鲜明树立选人用人正确导向，大力选拔政治过硬、敢于担当、锐意改革、实绩突出、清正廉洁的干部。完善管思想、管工作、管作风、管纪律的从严管理机制，着力解决干部乱作为、不作为、不敢为、不善为问题，推动干部能上能下、能进能出，推动形成能者上、优者奖、庸者下、劣者汰的良好局面。着眼健全有效防范和纠治政绩观偏差工作机制，组织党员、干部深入学习领会习近平总书记关于树立和践行正确政绩观的重要论述，解决好“政绩为谁而树、树什么样的政绩、靠什么树政绩”的问题；把树立和践行正确政绩观情况纳入巡视巡察、干部考核考察、审计整改监督的重要内容，及时发现和纠治政绩观偏差、错位问题；发挥正反典型的示范警示作用，教育引导党员、干部创造经得起实践、人民、历史检验的业绩。落实“三个区分开来”，把从严管理监督和鼓励担当作为高度统一起来，持续推动精准规范追责问责，加强对敢担当善作为干部的激励保护，旗帜鲜明为担当者担当、为负责者负责、为干事者撑腰、为创新者鼓劲。及时选树宣传表彰党员、干部中的先进典型，加大对基层干部特别是条件艰苦地区干部关心关爱力度。

Enhance the political function and organizational function of Party organizations. Political attribute is the fundamental attribute of Party organizations, and political function is the basic function of Party organizations. To earnestly implement the Party’s organizational line for the New Era, it is necessary to continuously strengthen the political attribute and political function of Party organizations at all levels and of all types. Focus on enhancing organizational strength, highlight political functions, strengthen political guidance, and build grassroots Party organizations in enterprises, rural areas, government organs, schools, research institutes, street communities, social organizations, etc., into strong fighting fortresses that propagate the Party’s propositions, implement the Party’s decisions, lead grassroots governance, unite and mobilize the masses, and promote reform and development. The Party’s strength comes from organization. The Party’s leadership and all Party work must be realized through the Party’s strong organizational system. A tight organizational system is the Party’s advantage and strength. Party organizations at all levels and the vast number of Party members must firmly establish a sense of playing chess as one, work together in unison under the centralized and unified leadership of the Party Central Committee, and form the overall synergy of the Party’s organizational system. Expand the coverage of grassroots Party organizations, promote innovation in the establishment and activity methods of grassroots Party organizations, explore effective ways to strengthen Party building in new economic organizations, new social organizations, and new employment groups, and expand the Party’s appeal, cohesion, and influence in emerging fields.

增强党组织政治功能和组织功能。政治属性是党组织的根本属性，政治功能是党组织的基本功能。认真贯彻落实新时代党的组织路线，必须不断强化各级各类党组织的政治属性和政治功能。以提升组织力为重点，突出政治功能、强化政治引领，把企业、农村、机关、学校、科研院所、街道社区、社会组织等基层党组织，建设成为宣传党的主张、贯彻党的决定、领导基层治理、团结动员群众、推动改革发展的坚强战斗堡垒。党的力量来自组织。党的领导、党的全部工作要靠党的坚强组织体系去实现。严密的组织体系是党的优势所在、力量所在。各级党组织和广大党员必须牢固树立一盘棋意识，在党中央集中统一领导下齐心协力、步调一致开展工作，形成党的组织体系整体合力。扩大基层党组织覆盖面，推进党的基层组织设置和活动方式创新，探索加强新经济组织、新社会组织、新就业群体党的建设有效途径，扩大党在新兴领域的号召力、凝聚力、影响力。

Improve the mechanism for Party member education, management, and role performance. Strictly conduct daily education and management of Party members, so that the vast number of Party members can be seen in ordinary times, stand out at critical moments, and step forward in times of crisis. Deepen activities such as contributing based on positions and offering suggestions, organize Party members to play a role in promoting reform and development, maintaining security and stability, advancing comprehensive rural revitalization, and strengthening grassroots governance. In the event of major natural disasters, major public safety incidents, and other emergencies, organize on-the-job Party members, village (community) Party members, mobile Party members, and Party members from new employment groups to transform into emergency response forces nearby and on-site, charging forward and fighting bravely. Strengthen ideological guidance and public opinion guidance in cyberspace, organize and guide Party members to actively speak out and take a clear stance in cyberspace, so that positive energy forms a large flow, and let the Party flag fly high in cyberspace.

Enhance the authority and enforcement of intra-Party regulations. Adhere to the actual needs of the Party’s cause development and the comprehensive and strict governance of the Party, adhere to the Party Constitution as the fundamental guideline, adhere to the correct political direction, adhere to democratic centralism, and enhance the “Four Consciousnesses”[10]10 The “Four Consciousnesses” refers to the consciousness of the ideology, the大局 (overall situation), the core, and the alignment., strengthen the “Four Confidences”[11]11 The “Four Confidences” refers to confidence in the path, confidence in the theory, confidence in the system, and confidence in the culture., and achieve the “Two Upholds”[12]12 The “Two Upholds” refers to upholding General Secretary Xi Jinping’s core position on the Party Central Committee and in the Party as a whole, and upholding the authority and centralized, unified leadership of the Party Central Committee.. Adhere to the connection and coordination between intra-Party regulations and national laws and regulations, deepen the reform of the intra-Party regulations system, do a good job in top-level design, filling gaps, and improving quality and efficiency, and, facing practical needs, promptly elevate good experiences and good practices into systems. Under the unified leadership of the Party Central Committee, establish and improve a responsibility system for enforcing regulations that features unified leadership by Party committees, overall coordination by Party committee general offices (offices), lead responsibility by competent departments, coordination and assistance by relevant units, and strict supervision by Party discipline inspection organs, combining unified and decentralized efforts, each performing its own duties, grasping one level and implementing it level by level. Enhance the awareness of Party members and cadres regarding regulation enforcement, improve their capacity for enforcement, firmly establish the concept that enforcing regulations is one’s duty and failing to enforce them effectively is dereliction of duty, strictly enforce regulation standards, standardize enforcement procedures, and improve enforcement outcomes.

增强党内法规权威性和执行力。坚持从党的事业发展需要和全面从严治党实际出发，坚持以党章为根本遵循，坚持正确政治方向，坚持民主集中制，增强“四个意识”、坚定“四个自信”、做到“两个维护”。坚持党内法规同国家法律法规衔接和协调，深化党内法规制度建设改革，做好顶层设计、查漏补缺、提质增效文章，面向实践需要，及时将好经验好做法上升为制度。在党中央集中统一领导下，建立健全党委统一领导、党委办公厅（室）统筹协调、主管部门牵头负责、相关单位协助配合、党的纪律检查机关严格监督的执规责任制，统分结合、各司其职，一级抓一级、层层抓落实。增强党员、干部的执规意识，提高执规能力，牢固树立执规是本职、执规不力是失职的理念，严格执规标准，规范执规程序，提升执规效果。
