Abstract
The “administrative examination and approval bureau” model is the latest practical achievement of deepening the reform of the administrative examination and approval system. It is a beneficial attempt to relatively concentrate the examination and approval power on the same institution. However, the first mock exam is a crisis of legitimacy, a confusion of powers and responsibilities, a lack of accountability and a blocking of information exchange. To promote the reform of the mode of “administrative examination and approval bureau”, we should realize the organic combination of “crossing the river by feeling the stone” and “top-level design”; make the means of administrative examination and approval system reform serve the purpose of optimizing public services; resolve the contradiction between horizontal centralized administrative license and vertical administrative management system; establish a supervision mechanism combining internal supervision and external supervision.
Highlights
Since the 18th CPC National Congress, under the background of deepening the reform of “release, management and service” and optimizing the business environment, the construction of the administrative examination and approval Bureau has stepped into the “fast lane”
To promote the reform of the mode of “administrative examination and approval bureau”, we should realize the organic combination of “crossing the river by feeling the stone” and “top-level design”; make the means of administrative examination and approval system reform serve the purpose of optimizing public services; resolve the contradiction between horizontal centralized administrative license and vertical administrative management system; establish a supervision mechanism combining internal supervision and external supervision
The opinions of relevant departments, expert arguments and citizens’ needs should be fed back to the administrative examination and approval Bureau in time to avoid “the internal tension of administrative organizations diluting the effectiveness of supervision, and the sunk cost of administrative acts offsetting the benefits of supervision results” (Ma & Jia, 2016), so that the supervision results can be brought into play effectively
Summary
Since the 18th CPC National Congress, under the background of deepening the reform of “release, management and service” and optimizing the business environment, the construction of the administrative examination and approval Bureau has stepped into the “fast lane”. In September of the same year, Premier Li Keqiang visited Tianjin Binhai New Area Administrative Examination and approval Bureau, witnessed the sealing of 109 examination and approval seals, and highly recognized and affirmed this reform model. Under the deployment requirements of the CPC Central Committee and the State Council, eight pilot provinces (cities) have actively established administrative examination and approval bureaus, implemented the reform of relatively centralized administrative licensing power, and urged surrounding provinces (cities) to keep up with the pace of reform and accelerate the reform of administrative examination and approval system. The model of the administrative examination and approval Bureau has been rapidly promoted in practice, the doubts of practitioners and theoretical researchers about the administrative examination and approval bureau have not been dispelled: can the administrative examination and approval Bureau overcome the problems of centralized examination and approval power and lack of departmental checks and balances?
