The State Council Information Office is scheduled to hold a press conference at 10 a.m. From March 8, 2021 (Monday). Ning Jizhe and Hu Zucai, deputy directors of the National Development and Reform Commission, and Zhao Chenxin, general secretary, are invited to present the in-depth implementation of the new development concept to ensure that the “Five” start a good game and get off to a good start, answering journalists’ questions about the situation.
The following is a partial record:
Hu Zucai: Urbanization is the only path to modernization, it is the source of the greatest potential for domestic demand in my country and a strong domestic market, and an important support to build a new pattern of development. Since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, my country’s construction of a new type of urbanization has achieved important historical achievements. The transfer of the agricultural population has accelerated their integration into the city. The urbanization rate of the permanent population and the urbanization rate of the Registered population has exceeded 60% and 45% respectively, and the 100 million agricultural transfer populations The objective of establishing residence in cities and towns with other residents permanent has been achieved without problems, the pattern of urban agglomeration “19 + 2” has basically been established, and the city has taken on a new look.
During the period of the “XIV Five-Year Plan”, the urbanization rate of my country is between 60% and 70%. Therefore, this stage is still relatively rapid development in the middle and late stages, and it is also a critical period for a comprehensive transformation We must adhere to the path of new urbanization with Chinese characteristics Deeply promote the new urbanization strategy focused on the people and comprehensively improve the quality of urban development development.
First, deepen the reform of the household registration system and promote orderly urbanization of the agricultural transfer population. Today, there are still more than 200 million agricultural migrants who have not settled in the cities, and some of those who have already settled still have the problem of the low quality of urbanization. Promoting the urbanization of agricultural migrants remains the main task of the new urbanization. It is necessary to prioritize stocks, boost growth, make general plans to promote the reform of the household registration system and full coverage of basic public services, and accelerate the full integration of the agricultural population transferred to the city.
On the one hand, we will continue to lower the threshold for settlement and perform the “wish.” We will relax settlement restrictions in cities other than some megacities and test a household registration system with places of habitual residence to promote the orderly settlement of agricultural migrants living in stable employment. For cities with a permanent population of less than 3 million in urban areas, settlement restrictions must be fully lifted to ensure that immigration standards for local and rural agricultural migrants are treated equally; for large-scale cities with 3 to 5 million permanent residents, settlement conditions must be completely relaxed; urban areas Super-large cities with a permanent population of more than 5 million should improve the point settlement policy, streamline the points program, ensure that the social security payment period and residence period count scores. for the main proportion, and encourage qualified cities to cancel the annual settlement fee. At the same time, the rural “three rights” of peasants that are established in the cities and established are well protected according to the law.
On the other hand, promote equal access to basic urban public services for the permanent population, and achieve “equal treatment and everything.” Improve the basic public service delivery mechanism that uses residence permits as a carrier and is linked to length of residence and other conditions, encourage local governments to provide more basic public services and amenities, and improve the reality of education Obligatory urban, housing security and other services for holders of residence permits Level of qualification, and promote that the permanent non-registered population gradually enjoy the same basic public services as the registered population.
At the same time, it is necessary to improve the urbanization mechanism of the agricultural transfer population and promote the “linking of people, land and money”. We will improve relevant policies to link financial transfer payments to urbanization of agricultural transfer populations, establish a linkage mechanism between the allocation of land for urban construction and the number of agricultural transfer populations, and adjust staffing and the distribution of facilities in the field of public service. based on actual population flow.
Second, optimize the layout of urbanization and promote the coordinated development of large, medium and small cities.
Megacities should promote “weight loss and fitness.” The new corona pneumonia epidemic has highlighted problems such as high population density and weak anti-risk capabilities in the central urban areas of some megacities. To solve these problems, we must do a good job in three respects: First, we must delineate and adhere to the boundaries of urban development, and carefully withdraw counties and establish districts. The second is to orderly dissolve secondary functions, orient the gradual and orderly transfer of excessively concentrated resource elements, and reasonably reduce the intensity of development and the population density of central urban areas. The third is to develop in conjunction with the surrounding small and medium-sized cities and new suburban cities, and to encourage and develop a number of modern metropolitan areas by promoting the integration of transport.
Large and medium-sized cities should improve their functions. It is about taking advantage of the relatively low overall cost of large and medium-sized cities, taking the initiative to undertake the transfer of industries and function from super-large cities, and improving the city’s service functions and quality of life.
The county seat must accelerate to make up for deficiencies and promote development of the development with the county seat as a major carrier. The county seat is the “head of the city and the end of the city,” an important position serving hundreds of millions of farmers and an important fulcrum for expanding domestic demand. In most areas, county cities remain the first choice for farmers to seek medical treatment, obtain employment, and enroll their children in school. There are still many deficiencies in the construction of county cities, and we must promote urbanization with county cities as a major carrier. Since last year, we have adjusted measures to local conditions and guided by classification to accelerate the deficiencies of counties, including mega cities, to improve high-level design, strengthen financial support, and conduct demonstrations in an orderly manner. During the “XIV Five Year Plan” period, we should support the construction of county cities with a good foundation in the eastern region, focus on the construction of county cities in the urbanization areas of the central and western regions and the northeast regions , and Rationally support the construction of provincial municipalities in the main agricultural production areas and key ecological function areas, and strengthen the construction of border municipalities. Actively promote facility improvement and expansion in 17 areas in four main areas, including utilities, environmental sanitation, municipal utilities, and industrial farming, to enhance the county’s comprehensive carrying capacity and governance capabilities.
Third, comprehensively improve the quality of the city and promote livability and industry. Promote to complement the deficiencies of public transport, parking lots, cargo piles, etc., which are strongly demanded by the masses, strengthen the construction of flood control and drainage systems, promote urban flood management to achieve significant results and complete the renovation of 219,000 old communities in cities and towns completed in late 2000. Digital technology improves urban governance and enables urban residents to enjoy a better quality of urban life.
