英语资讯:Xi spells out Party codes on stricter governance

"All these principles still must be adhered to," Xi said.

However, some outstanding contradictions and problems the 1980 norms sought to address are no longer pressing today, whereas new ones have arisen, Xi said.

He added, the new norms are not a total replacement of the 1980 version, rather, new regulations targeting new problems and situations while adhering to major principles and provisions included in the 1980 norms.

SENIOR OFFICIALS CRUCIAL

Xi also accounted for an emphasis on senior officials in the two documents.

Management of officials, especially high-ranking ones, is imperative to strengthening Party building, Xi said, adding managing members of the CPC Central Committee, the Political Bureau of the CPC Central Committee, and the Standing Committee of the Political Bureau, is crucial.

"When this group of people are managed well and play exemplary roles for the Party, many things get a lot easier," Xi said, asserting that regulating intra-Party political life and advancing supervision should start with them.

The regulation dedicates one chapter to supervision of the Party's central organization.

Members of the CPC Central Committee must observe the Party's political discipline and rules, and are obliged to voice opposition and report to the CPC Central Committee promptly if they spot misconduct that violates the Party Constitution or discipline, or compromises Party unity, the regulation stipulates.
