BEIJING, May 5 -- China's anti-graft organ said Monday it strengthened disciplinary inspection during the just-concluded three-day Labor Day holiday.
The Central Commission for Discipline Inspection (CCDI) and the Ministry of Supervision issued a statement on its website, saying that it warned against any violations before the holiday and strengthened checks during the holiday.
The country's anti-graft organ has worked to combat corruption and the undesirable work styles of formalism, bureaucracy, hedonism and extravagance.
It strengthened checks during holidays to restrain extravagant dinners and banquets, travels at public expense, and gifts, all of which may be abused through corrupt practices.
The CCDI said before the holiday that it launched a website for tip-offs on violations during holidays, and so far over 700 cases of regulation violations were made public.
The anti-graft organ also issued a notice saying that it would strengthen inspections during the holidays. Local anti-graft organs in Beijing, Shanxi, Shandong, Sichuan and other regions also issued notices before the holiday warning against any violations during holidays.
During the holiday, local anti-graft organs dispatched staff to inspect at scenic spots and dining places.
In Tianjin, staff of the local anti-graft organ went to a scenic spot and found suspected misuse of government vehicles. In Chongqing, a driver of a government vehicle was punished for using the car for private purposes.
In coordination with police, business, taxation and other departments, anti-graft staff in Liaoning Province investigated the sales records of restaurants and found evidence of suspected consumption at the public's expense.
