importance to building a clean government and promoting the government to act
according to law," Wen said in a written instruction to a national meeting on
economic responsibility audit work, which opened here Monday.
Wu said in his written instruction to the same meeting that audit results
will be used as important reference in evaluating and promoting cadres. Corrupt
officials uncovered by audit departments will be punished.
China has decided to expand the scope of economic audit of government
officials from the beginning of 2005. Heads of prefectures and prefecture-level
agencies will be subject to economic auditing from Jan. 1 of 2005, as were
officials of lower ranks.
From 2000 to June 2004, 3,253 officials in China were handed over to judicial
or discipline organs to face trial and punishment after economic auditing,
according to those at the meeting.
