政府工作报告(下)
REPORT ON THE WORK OF THE GOVERNMENT（Part 2）
（二）激发市场主体活力，着力优化营商环境。
2. We will work to energize market entities and improve the business environment.
我国有上亿市场主体，而且还在不断增加。把市场主体的活跃度保持住、提上去，是促进经济平稳增长的关键所在。要深化“放管服”改革，降低制度性交易成本，下硬功夫打造好发展软环境。
There are hundreds of millions of market entities in China, and the number continues to grow. The key to promoting stable economic growth lies in maintaining and increasing their level of activity. We must push forward with reforms that delegate power, improve regulation, and upgrade services, bring down government-imposed transaction costs, and make every effort to create an enabling environment for development.
以简审批优服务便利投资兴业。
We will cut government approvals and improve services to create a favorable environment for investment and business startups.
市场配置资源是最有效率的形式。要进一步缩减市场准入负面清单，推动“非禁即入”普遍落实。政府要坚决把不该管的事项交给市场，最大限度减少对资源的直接配置，审批事项应减尽减，确需审批的要简化流程和环节，让企业多用时间跑市场、少费功夫跑审批。
Market allocation is the most efficient form of resource allocation. We will further shorten the negative list on market entry and promote across-the-board implementation of the policy of “entry unless on the list.” The government must act with resolve to hand matters it shouldn’t manage over to the market, and make maximum reductions to its direct allocation of resources. Every requirement for government approval that should be canceled will be canceled. When approval is required, the procedures and steps involved will be simplified. This will leave companies to spend more time doing business and less time chasing approvals.
今年，要对所有涉企经营许可事项实行“证照分离”改革，使企业更便捷拿到营业执照并尽快正常运营，坚决克服“准入不准营”的现象；在全国推开工程建设项目审批制度改革，使全流程审批时间大幅缩短。继续压缩专利审查和商标注册时间。
This year, all operating permits required of businesses will be separated from the business license to make it quicker and easier for companies to get a license and start operating as soon as possible; and we will put an end to the phenomenon of “letting firms in but not letting them do business.” Reform of the system for construction project approval will be introduced nationwide, and the time of approval needed at every stage of a project will be significantly shortened. We will continue to cut the time it takes to have a patent approved and a trademark registered.
推行网上审批和服务，抓紧建成全国一体化在线政务服务平台，加快实现一网通办、异地可办，使更多事项不见面办理，确需到现场办的要“一窗受理、限时办结”“最多跑一次”。持续开展“减证便民”改革行动，不能让繁琐证明来回折腾企业和群众。
We will encourage online approvals and services, and work faster to build a national online platform for government services, enabling access via one website and remote processing, so that more matters can be handled without the need to be physically present. For matters that do require presence in person, they should be processed at a single window, within a specified time, and without the need for a second visit. We will continue to pursue the Cut Certification to Create Convenience reform initiative, and see that businesses and the public are not saddled with running from pillar to post for certificates.
建立政务服务“好差评”制度，服务绩效由企业和群众来评判。政府部门做好服务是本分，服务不好是失职。
We will establish a government service evaluation system, and let businesses and the public judge if our service is up to scratch. Delivering good services is what a government is meant to do; failure to do so means failing in its duties.
以公正监管促进公平竞争。
We will conduct impartial regulation to promote fair competition.
公平竞争是市场经济的核心，公正监管是公平竞争的保障。改革完善公平竞争审查和公正监管制度，加快清理妨碍统一市场和公平竞争的各种规定和做法。
Fair competition is at the heart of a market economy, and impartial regulation is a safeguard for fair competition. We will reform and improve the fair competition review and impartial regulation systems, and move faster to do away with all regulations and practices that impede the functioning of a unified market and fair competition.
政简易从。规则越简约透明，监管越有力有效。国家层面重在制定统一的监管规则和标准，地方政府要把主要力量放在公正监管上。
Simple regulations are easy to follow. The simpler and more transparent the rules are, the more robust and effective regulation is. At the national level, the focus is on developing unified regulatory rules and standards, while local governments should concentrate most of their energy on conducting impartial regulation.
推进“双随机、一公开”跨部门联合监管，推行信用监管和“互联网+监管”改革，优化环保、消防、税务、市场监管等执法方式，对违法者依法严惩、对守法者无事不扰。
We will continue interdepartmental oversight conducted through the random selection of both inspectors and inspection targets and the prompt release of results. We will promote credit rating-based regulation and the Internet Plus Regulation reform initiative, develop better ways of enforcing laws on environmental protection, fire prevention, tax collection, and market oversight, and see that law breakers are punished in accordance with law and the law-abiding are let be.
深化综合行政执法改革，清理规范行政处罚事项，坚决治理多头检查、重复检查。对监管者也要强监管、立规矩，决不允许搞选择性执法、任性执法，决不允许刁难企业和群众。
We will deepen the reform of coordinated law enforcement by government departments, overhaul government penalties and punitive measures, and address overlap and duplication in enforcement. Regulators themselves must also be subject to strong oversight and follow rules. There can be no tolerance for selective or arbitrary law enforcement or for making things difficult for businesses and people.
依法打击制售假冒伪劣商品等违法行为，让严重违法者付出付不起的代价。完善失信联合惩戒机制，促进各类市场主体守法诚信经营。用公正监管管出公平、管出效率、管出活力。
We will, in accordance with law, crack down on violations of law such as the production and sale of counterfeit and substandard goods, and make the price to pay for serious offenders too dear to afford. We will improve the mechanism for joint punitive action against bad faith, and encourage all market entities to do business in accordance with law and in good faith. We will use impartial regulation to ensure a fair, efficient, and dynamic market.

We will advance the reform of the toll roads system, move to cut tolls on highways and bridges, and put a stop to unjustified requirements for approval as well as arbitrary charges and fines on passenger and freight transport vehicles. Within two years, we will remove almost all expressway toll booths at provincial borders and make nonstop, swift collection a reality. This will cut traffic congestion and make road transport more convenient. A number of railway and port charges will be abolished or lowered.
专项治理中介服务收费。继续清理规范行政事业性收费。加快收费清单“一张网”建设，让收费公开透明，让乱收费无处藏身。
We will launch an initiative to address the collection of charges by intermediary organizations. We will continue reviewing and standardizing government levied charges.

Technological innovation is in essence a human creative activity. We must fully respect and trust our scientists and researchers, and empower teams and leaders of innovation by placing more human, financial, and material resources at their disposal and giving them more power to make decisions on technology roadmaps. We will further increase the proportion of indirect funding for basic research projects, pilot the creation of ceilings in funding that enable the retention of unused funds, set no limits on the proportions of spending items, and give research teams the power to decide how to use funds.

（七）加强污染防治和生态建设，大力推动绿色发展。
7. We will strengthen pollution prevention and control, enhance ecological improvement, and make big advances in green development.
绿色发展是构建现代化经济体系的必然要求，是解决污染问题的根本之策。要改革完善相关制度，协同推动高质量发展与生态环境保护。
Green development is a critical element of modernizing an economy; it is also a fundamental solution to pollution. We will reform and refine relevant systems, and pursue both high-quality development and environmental protection.
持续推进污染防治。
We will keep intensifying efforts to prevent and control pollution.

We will step up sorting in solid waste and urban garbage disposal, and work toward the reduction, recycling, and safe disposal of such waste.

企业作为污染防治主体，必须依法履行环保责任。改革创新环境治理方式，对企业既依法依规监管，又重视合理诉求、加强帮扶指导，对需要达标整改的给予合理过渡期，避免处置措施简单粗暴、一关了之。企业有内在动力和外部压力，污染防治一定能取得更大成效。
As the primary actors in pollution prevention and control, enterprises must fulfill their responsibility of protecting the environment according to law. We need to reform and find new approaches to environmental governance. While we must conduct oversight over enterprises in compliance with laws and regulations, we must also heed their justified concerns and provide better assistance and guidance to them. Enterprises that need to take measures to meet standards should be given a reasonable grace period to do so, and we must avoid handling things in a simplistic and crude way or just shutting firms down to be done with it. When enterprises have both motivation themselves and external pressure, our work to prevent and control pollution is certain to produce more effective results.

At every level of government, we should keep firmly in mind the need to maintain political integrity, think in big-picture terms, follow the leadership core, and keep in alignment. We should strengthen our confidence in the path, theory, system, and culture of socialism with Chinese characteristics. We should resolutely uphold General Secretary Xi Jinping’s core position on the Party Central Committee and in the Party as a whole, and resolutely uphold the Party Central Committee’s authority and its centralized, unified leadership. And we should maintain a high degree of unity in thought, stance, and action with the Party Central Committee with Comrade Xi Jinping at its core and exercise full and rigorous self-discipline in the Party.
勇于自我革命，深入推进简政放权，加快转职能、提效能，增强政府公信力和执行力，更好满足人民对美好生活的新期待。

At every level of government, we must accept, as law requires, the oversight of the people’s congresses and their standing committees at the corresponding level. We should readily subject ourselves to the democratic oversight of CPPCC committees, public oversight, and oversight through public opinion, so that power is exercised with transparency.
政府干的，都应是人民盼的。要坚持科学、民主、依法决策，认真听取人大代表、政协委员意见，听取民主党派、工商联、无党派人士和各人民团体意见，听取社会公众和企业意见，使各项政策符合基本国情和客观实际，更接地气、更合民意。
