Sub-group review of the revised draft statistical Law focus: eliminate data flooding

To control the statistical institutions more strictly to improve the quality of statistics to eliminate "data flooding" Xinhua Beijing, June 23 (reporter Wang Fei) Although the revised draft statistical law is the second consideration, the members of the NPC Standing Committee are still very enthusiastic speeches.　　How to prevent and punish fraud in statistics through legal means, and further improve the quality of statistical data, remains the focus of the group of members of the Standing Committee 23rd. In order to control the statistical institutions more strictly in view of the views of some members of the last review, the proposed amendment has increased the penalties for the illegal provision of statistical offices.　　During the deliberations, some members of the Standing Committee considered that the supervision of statistical agencies should be strengthened and the penalties intensified, and only in this way could the statistical institutions ' own violations be eliminated. Chen Jun, a member of the NPC Standing Committee, said that the authenticity and accuracy of statistics depended on the quality of statisticians, on the other hand, on the independence of statistical institutions. Statistical data from the people's government at or above the county level, the problem is also at all levels of government, peer monitoring is difficult to ensure that no problems.　　Therefore, it is necessary to revise the relevant provisions of the revised draft. Chen Changzhi, vice chairman of the NPC Standing Committee, agreed to this opinion.　　He said the draft should amend the relevant provisions to be supervised by the superior to the subordinate, so as to quote a true figure. Nanzheng, a member of the NPC Standing Committee, said the draft submitted to the "official number of words, figures out of the official" has been effectively contained, accord with public opinion. However, the relevant provisions of the draft law only provide for the authenticity of statistics, and there is no penalty for the illegal conduct of statistical agencies and statisticians.　　Accordingly, the draft should be amended to make statistical offices responsible for the authenticity of statistical data and not to fabricate statistical data at will. Statistical work should emphasize that the revised draft of scientific Statistical law clearly stipulates that the purpose of legislation is to guarantee the authenticity, accuracy, completeness and timeliness of statistical information.　　In the deliberations, many members of the Standing Committee thought that, in addition to the above purposes, statistical law should also adapt to the new situation of economic and social development, emphasizing the scientific nature of statistical work.　　Lu, vice chairman of the NPC Standing Committee, believes that in emphasizing the authenticity, accuracy, completeness and timeliness of statistical data, we should also emphasize statistical scientific research and realize the progress of statistical work by advancing statistical science. Chen Yujie, a member of the NPC Standing Committee, said that the statistical data itself is not scientific science is worth studying, and unscientific statistics itself will be discounted. For example, the problem of repeated computations is obvious. According to the green data published in the past few years, the people joked that now there are trees in the bed.　　She suggested that the data should be explained and made more scientific. Zhou Shentao, a member of the NPC Standing Committee, said that statistics should be adapted to the new situation in terms of methods and ideas. Now the statistical data is not right, it is not necessarily the statistical department moved "hands and feet", but also may be statistical methods and means of deficiencies.　　Therefore, the statistical department should keep pace with the times in the way of thinking and method, make the statistic data more scientific and accurate.Let the masses participate in the statistical work how to better play the important role of statistics in the service of economic and social development, many members of the Standing Committee put forward, should further promote the social sharing of statistical information, let the masses participate in statistical work.　　Hou Jianguo, a member of the NPC Standing Committee, believes that the public role of statistical data should be further played, and that all statistical data, except those involving national security, should be made public, providing inquiries and other services to the public. Bonri, deputy director of the National People's Congress, who attends the meeting, said that some of the statistics now published do not match the real feelings of the people, for example, some cities reported a 10% increase in residents ' income, and many questioned by the masses.　　It is incumbent on the statistical department to explain to the public how these data are derived.　　Lu said that statistical data published what, when the announcement should be on the legal system, which not only can promote the social sharing of statistical information, but also better accept the people's supervision, and further improve the quality of statistical data. Wang Yiming, a professor at the School of Economics at Peking University, is also very concerned about the revision of the statistical law, saying: "It is important for the quality of statistical work to make public participation." Public participation can test the authenticity, accuracy and scientificity of statistical data, and public questioning can drive statistical departments to improve their work and improve the level of statistical work. In the final analysis, statistics still serve the public and the community. ”
