BEIJING, July 1 -- China approved a series of plans to establish a stricter supervision system for environmental protection work on Wednesday.
Chinese President Xi Jinping presided over the 14th meeting of the Leading Group for Overall Reform on Wednesday afternoon, which he also heads.
Several topics were discussed at the meeting, including an environmental protection supervision plan for building a better monitoring network, a plan for independent auditing of officials of natural resource assets and a plan to hold officials who damage the environment responsible, among others.
Xi urged officials to implement the "three stricts and three honests", a series of requirements for officials to improve their life and work raised by President Xi Jinping in March last year. The slogan refers to: "be strict in morals, power and disciplining oneself; be honest in decisions, business and behavior."
Members of the Standing Committee of the Political Bureau of the Communist Party of China (CPC) Central Committee Liu Yunshan and Zhang Gaoli attended the meeting.
