国内英语新闻:Discipline inspectors set up offices in more top organs

BEIJING, March 31 (Xinhua) -- The Communist Party of China's (CPC's) disciplinary watchdog has established resident offices in four CPC central organs for the first time, it announced on Tuesday.

Leading resident supervisors have taken office in the CPC Central Committee's General Office, Organization Department, Publicity Department and United Front Work Department.

Similar branches were also set up in the country's top legislature, top political advisory body and the General Office of the State Council, or the cabinet, according to a statement issued by the CPC Central Commission for Discipline Inspection (CCDI).

The move followed a decision made by the Political Bureau of the CPC Central Committee in December to establish CCDI resident disciplinary offices in more central CPC and government organs.

Such offices have already been established in more than 50 central government organs. And the CCDI plans to set up offices for all central Party and government organs, the number of which is about 140.

These offices will focus on supervision, being responsible for disciplinary inspections, pressing implementation of party discipline and tracing accountability.

Hailing the move as innovative in the anti-corruption cause, Tuesday's statement said setting up more offices is an important step to strictly governing the Party.

It said the new offices will be fully completed in three months.

In recent years, inspectors have uncovered scores of graft cases in central CPC and government authorities.
