-- Legalizing the staffing of institutions

The decision called for managing all organizations and institutions in accordance with the law, and accelerating the process of legalizing the institutions, and their functions, powers, operational procedures as well as responsibilities.

The Party shall have its own staffing regulation and there should also be a law on institution staffing, said the decision.

Those who fail to observe the staffing rules and legal requirements would be held accountable.

-- Enhancing Party's leadership over deepening reform of Party and state institutions

The CPC Central Committee should coordinate and supervise the holistic implementation of the reform, while local authorities and departments were urged to resolutely implement the reform tasks, said the decision.

Authorities at various levels should not act until their reform plans are approved by the CPC Central Committee.
