Household registration system how to reform?

Background: this year's two sessions, the Ministry of Public Security commitment, will work with relevant departments to grasp the "Ministry of Public Security on the further reform of the household registration management system of a number of opinions (draft)" to modify and improve, and step up the "Household Registration Act" of the legislative research, and strive to promote the early introduction. Li Jianhua believes that, if the past 50 years, the existing household registration management policy has made a certain contribution to China's economic and social development, there is a reasonable side, then now, this policy has become an obstacle to the development of China's productive forces should be reformed, and, more importantly, the conditions for this reform have basically matured. In Professor Li's view, over the past 20 years of reform and opening up, the economic and social development of China's cities and small towns has advanced by leaps and bounds, laying the foundation for absorbing more surplus rural labor. And allowing some citizens in towns and cities with legal fixed residence and means of earning a living to settle in their usual place of residence does not constitute an impact or influence on urban development. At the same time, reforms of civil affairs, labor security, education, family planning and other systems linked to the nature of agricultural and non-agricultural household registration have also made significant progress, providing favorable conditions for comprehensively advancing the reform of the household registration system. Li proposed that the reform of the household registration system should be based on the rationality of recognizing and respecting human freedom, restoring the original significance of household registration management, turning management into service, adhering to the service principle of "combining the actuality of people and households," and preventing the household registration system from becoming a platform for the authorities to "ride on the bus". This will prevent the household registration system from becoming a platform for "free-riding" by the authorities, and ultimately realize the goals of singularity, service and informatization of the household registration system. In fact, in recent years, various reforms have been "crossing the river by groping for stones". In 1992, the state set up a drafting group for the reform of the household registration system, and in June 1993 drafted a general plan for the reform of the household registration system, which proposed, among other things, to "abolish the dichotomous nature of the household registration system as agricultural and non-agricultural, and to unify the household registration system in urban and rural areas; to implement the principle of registering the household registration system at the place of residence, and to take the basic basis of life, such as having a lawful and fixed abode, a stable occupation, or a source of livelihood, as the basic conditions for settling down; and to adjust the household registration system in order to make it more flexible. The principle of registration of household registration at the place of residence is being implemented, and the main basis of life, such as a lawful fixed residence, stable occupation or source of livelihood, is taken as the basic condition for settling down in a household, and the household relocation policy is being adjusted. Reforms in various regions have also been underway for a long time. In recent years, 12 provinces, autonomous regions and municipalities directly under the Central Government, including Hebei, Liaoning, Shandong, Guangxi and Chongqing, have abolished the dual nature of the hukou division between agricultural and non-agricultural hukou, and have unified the urban and rural hukou registration systems, collectively known as the resident hukou. In order to promote the smooth implementation of the reform policy, the public security organs of 12 provinces, autonomous regions and municipalities directly under the Central Government have taken the initiative to cooperate with the departments of civil affairs, labor and security, family planning, education and other departments to adjust the relevant supporting economic and social policies. At a recent national conference on public security, the Ministry of Public Security announced that China would vigorously promote reform of the household registration system with a focus on establishing a unified household registration system for both urban and rural areas, and would gradually abolish the dual nature of the household registration system for agricultural and non-agricultural households, so as to realize equality of civil status. In addition to this, China will take the basic condition of having a lawful and fixed residence as a condition for settling down, further adjust the policy of household relocation, and promote the exchange of talents and the reasonable and orderly transfer of population; improve the registration of temporary residence, and explore the establishment of a residence permit system; and relax the restrictions on the conditions under which husbands and wives may rely on each other, and elderly people may rely on their children, in order to solve the practical difficulties encountered by the public. Shanghai, Chongqing, Shenyang and Chengdu are ahead of the curve in reforming the temporary residence permit system. They have implemented a residence permit system to ensure that the floating population receiving residence permits are treated as citizens while fulfilling the same obligations as local residents in terms of taxation and other aspects, so as to promote the integration of the floating population into local life. Difficulties in supporting reforms must be advanced steadily Background: Household registration reforms in many places have been called to an urgent halt because the relevant supporting facilities have not kept pace with the inability to afford the many benefits attached to the hukou. For example, the city of Zhengzhou announced in 2003 that its household registration policy would be completely liberalized, allowing people from outside the city to apply for a household registration in the form of "sending relatives to friends", but a year later, it stepped on the "emergency brake" on the grounds of "easing the pressure on the city brought about by the population explosion". But a year later, the government stepped on the "emergency brake" on the grounds of "easing the pressure on the city caused by the population explosion". The reforms have been carried out with great vigor, but the results seem to be unsatisfactory. In many places, farmers have the same "resident registration" as city dwellers, but found that education, medical care, employment, etc. have not been "upgraded" along with it, and they have the "ticket" to the city, but they cannot enjoy the "citizen treatment". Enjoy the "citizenship treatment". The city people also have complaints: once the hukou is liberalized, a huge influx of farmers into the city, the city will really become a "downtown", no peace and quiet. Moreover, if we are completely equal, not to share our "cake"? The pace of reform of the local government is also a headache: relaxation of urban household registration restrictions, a large number of rural population influx into the city, not only increased the difficulty of population management, but also greatly increased the capacity of the city. If completely liberalized, the city will certainly be "overburdened". Li Jianhua believes that the household registration reform over the years, not much progress, and even repeated, is the complexity of the household registration system reform. Household registration reform involves a very broad redistribution of rights and interests. It is impossible to find the right way and program for the reform by relying solely on the city government and the administrative department of household registration to find a technical solution. With Li Jianhua's views, in this year's two sessions, Yang Chunxing members submitted a "speed up the reform of the household registration system to eliminate the binding urban and rural coordinated development of institutional barriers," the General Assembly speech, he believes that, if the reform of the household registration system and economic and social supporting policies failed to dovetail with the other aspects of the other still binary, only the household registration to change into a one-dimensional, there is no practical significance. The State should speed up the advancement of the reform of the household registration system, and explore and formulate various supporting policies and measures accordingly. To the social public *** resources should be made available to all citizens *** with the same enjoyment, regardless of geography, regardless of status and occupation, the implementation of rights and responsibilities, rights and obligations are equal. Many knowledgeable people also proposed that, for the development of the household registration system reform program, in addition to the State Council active research and coordination, but also need to play a role in the National People's Congress and its Standing Committee, because the household registration system in fact involves the very important rights of citizens. Household registration system is a public **** policy, its reform should be widely listen to the views of the public, and not by the relevant departments "behind closed doors". Li Jianhua believes that, with China's economic and social development, and after years of preparation and various forms of experimentation, household registration policy reform conditions have basically mature, technically feasible, and now the most critical issue lies in the relevant management departments to put down the ideological burden, put aside departmental interests, the development of practical ways. The household registration system involves every person and every family. Promote this reform of household registration, both in line with the wishes of the majority of citizens, but also the implementation of "scientific development, *** build harmony" as a necessary prerequisite for the goal of social management, should be steadily and actively promote.
