Deputy District Director ×××

Social assistance is an important part of social security and the last "safety net" for the general public, especially the vulnerable groups. The report of the 17th National Congress of the Communist Party of China pointed out that it is necessary to speed up the establishment of a social security system covering urban and rural areas to ensure the people's basic life. Over the years, the District Party Committee and District Government have always paid great attention to people's livelihood and livelihood, and have regarded the construction of an urban and rural social assistance and security system that adapts to the development requirements of the times and is in line with Wuqing's reality as an important part of building a new Wuqing, ensuring that the people of the whole district are in the process of socialist construction. Enjoy the fruits of economic growth and social progress.

1. Current status of the social assistance and security system in our district

Adhere to taking social assistance as the top priority of people's livelihood and livelihood, continuously increase investment, improve mechanisms and systems, A preliminary system has been established with social relief, disaster relief and social mutual assistance as the core, with the subsistence allowance and five-guarantee support systems as the basis, with assistance systems such as medical care, housing, education, etc., and with social donations, charity assistance, paired assistance and other social assistance systems. The urban and rural social assistance security network supplemented by means of assistance to the poor has effectively guaranteed the basic life of disadvantaged groups in urban and rural areas. It mainly has three characteristics:

(1) Realize "three overall plans" and gradually improve the social assistance system.

1. Coordinate the rescue scope groups. Based on the establishment and implementation of the urban subsistence allowance system in 1998, the rural subsistence allowance system was fully implemented in 1999. As of November 2008, there were 942 households with 1,878 people in urban areas, 3,066 households with 7,747 people in rural areas, 514 people in centralized five-guarantee support, and 2,908 people in scattered support. At the same time, focusing on improving the social security capabilities of special groups, the scope of social assistance has been continuously expanded to marginalized groups other than the minimum living allowance and the five guarantees, as well as special groups such as the seriously ill, severely disabled, students and single-parent families, the elderly, vagrants and beggars, and criminal prisoners. , the region has formed a social assistance system covering all urban and rural areas and benefiting all vulnerable groups.

2. Coordinate various rescue systems. First, a classified assistance system for urban and rural areas has been established. On the basis of implementing various special assistance policies, special assistance objects and assistance standards have been clarified. At present, 246 severely disabled people, 222 widowed single-parent families with children in school, 79 seriously ill patients and 144 people without income, and 1,637 elderly people over 60 years old in the district's urban and rural subsistence allowance families have all received higher subsistence allowances in different proportions. gold. The second is to establish a medical assistance system that coordinates urban and rural areas. On the basis of conscientiously implementing the medical insurance for urban employees, the city took the lead in establishing a rural serious illness assistance system in 2005. In 2007, the new rural cooperative medical system and the urban medical assistance system were implemented. Medical assistance has achieved full coverage of urban and rural areas and system coordination. The third is to establish an education assistance system that coordinates urban and rural areas. A total of 1,162 needy students worth 1.09 million yuan have been subsidized.

3. Coordinate the management of rescue funds. Relief funds at the district and township levels are included in the fiscal budget and are managed and distributed uniformly by the district civil affairs department. In 2008, financial institutions at all levels in the region distributed 25 million yuan in special funds such as minimum living allowances and five guarantees.

(2) Establish "three mechanisms" to make social assistance work orderly and standardized.

1. Comprehensive coordination mechanism for social assistance. Various types of relief projects are organized by the civil affairs department and implemented uniformly by townships and streets. Various relief funds and materials are allocated and distributed by townships and streets. Various relief information is collected through statistics of townships and streets, summarized by the civil affairs department and announced to the public on a regular basis. A civil affairs coordinated supervision system has been established. , township entities implement a rescue work mechanism with standardized procedures and orderly procedures.

2. Scientific adjustment mechanism for rescue standards. The first is to establish a mechanism for adjusting the standards of the minimum living allowance and the five guarantees. Based on factors such as economic development and rising prices, the rural subsistence allowance standard has been raised from 60 yuan per person per month in 1999 to 200 yuan per person per month, and the urban subsistence allowance standard has been raised from 185 yuan per person per month to 400 yuan per person per month. Yuan; the five-guarantee support standard in rural areas has been increased from 480 kilograms of rations and 840 yuan of living expenses per person per year in 1994 to 4,000 yuan per person per year. The second is to establish a linkage mechanism between price increases of basic necessities and living subsidies for people in need. In 2008, a price subsidy of 200,000 yuan was provided to 11,886 urban subsistence allowance recipients.

3. Dynamic management mechanism for rescue objects. Implement dynamic management of social assistance recipients, conduct regular surveys and statistics on the income of assistance recipients, and promptly cancel those who do not meet the assistance standards to maximize the use efficiency of social assistance funds and maintain social fairness.

(3) Promote the "three transformations" and continuously improve the level of social assistance.

1. The rescue standard changes from traditional decision-making to mechanism-based decision-making. The determination of various social assistance policies and assistance standards has been transformed from the traditional decision-making form of departmental consultation and government approval into a institutional decision-making form that is directly linked to the per capita income level of urban and rural residents and increases simultaneously, which has improved the scientific and scientific nature of assistance. Work efficiency.

2. The rescue management work has changed from extensive to refined. First, the identification of aid targets has changed from traditional observation of living conditions to household surveys and calculations; second, in terms of aid content, it has changed from single life aid to comprehensive aid including life, medical care, housing, etc.; third In terms of the method of assistance, it has changed from simply distributing relief funds and relief goods to active assistance that is conducive to promoting the employment and re-employment of the rescued objects; fourthly, in terms of the payment of relief funds, it has changed from receiving them at designated points to passing through passbooks from financial institutions such as banks. Distribution effectively facilitates the masses.

3. The main body of rescue has changed from a single government to a pluralistic society. While continuing to tilt the government's new financial resources towards people's livelihood protection, it also actively attracts social forces and funds to participate in social assistance, and has initially formed an assistance system led by the government and participated by social forces. A district-wide charity association and a voluntary service association were established, recruiting 4,400 community volunteers. Through market-oriented and social channels, it invested 200 million yuan to build a home-based senior care community - Songheyuan Senior Apartment, and invested 20.5 million yuan to build a nursing home in Wuqing District with 300 beds, relying on the Ministry of Civil Affairs' "Starlight Plan" and "Xiaguang Plan" It has renovated and expanded 27 township nursing homes, and invested 5 million yuan to create the "Prince of Peace" Children's Welfare Home in cooperation with World Vision.

2. Main problems existing in the social assistance work in our district

(1) The social assistance system still needs to be improved. First, the subsistence allowance income assessment is not scientific enough. On the one hand, the subsistence allowance assessment only calculates family income and does not consider expenditure factors. Although the income of some families is higher than the subsistence allowance standard, the actual expenditures due to illness and other expenses are relatively large, and the family is very difficult. They are also unable to enjoy the subsistence allowance policy; on the other hand, because some families fail to truthfully declare their income and fail to establish a scientific approval system, the actual income of some families exceeds the subsistence allowance standard and the subsistence allowance assistance cannot be canceled in time. Second, the setting of assistance projects is unreasonable. Special assistance such as education, medical care, and housing are all bundled with the subsistence allowance system. The policy is not flexible, which reduces the effectiveness of assistance. Third, the temporary assistance system has not yet been established, and some temporarily trapped families cannot enjoy the assistance policy.

(2) The standards of individual rescue projects need to be improved. First, the five-guarantee centralized support subsidy is equivalent to the decentralized support subsidy, and is most affected by factors such as the small scale of the nursing home and aging facilities, resulting in a low centralized support rate. Only 514 of the 3,422 five-guarantee recipients in the district have achieved centralized support. . The second is housing project subsidies. As prices rise, it currently costs about 40,000 yuan to renovate three houses. The district-level subsidy standard of 7,000 yuan is relatively low.

(3) There is great pressure on townships to share subsistence allowance funds. At present, the subsistence allowance sharing ratio between districts and townships is 7:3. The district-level share is subsidized by the municipal finance, while the township-level share is relatively large and requires long-term payment burdens. There is a phenomenon that some towns only approve and submit subsistence allowances once a quarter or even a year; some townships and streets even ask families who meet the subsistence allowance standards to enjoy the subsistence allowances as they wish, and the township burden will be borne by the people themselves.

(4) The public’s understanding of the relief policy is not yet in place. First, a small number of village and street cadres have deviated understanding and implementation and regard subsistence allowances as a condition for land acquisition and demolition. Second, a small number of urban workers believe that as long as they are laid off, they should enjoy the subsistence allowance policy.

3. Recommendations for improving the urban and rural social assistance system

Focusing on establishing a social assistance system that is compatible with economic and social development, further improve the assistance system, increase assistance bids, and expand the scope of assistance , promote social mutual assistance and comprehensively improve the level of social assistance.

(1) Strengthen the construction of the organizational system and improve the ability to coordinate and promote rescue.

Focusing on increasing the comprehensive coordination and promotion of social assistance, improving the level of comprehensive assistance, including industry and commerce, labor, housing management, finance, working youth and women and other departments as social assistance member units, establishing a regular communication mechanism to promote policies Effective connection and timely sharing of information form a comprehensive social assistance system.

(2) Further improve the assistance system and improve the social assistance security system.

1. Establish a temporary rescue system. Temporary assistance will be provided to marginalized groups who do not meet the requirements for subsistence allowances but whose lives are really difficult, as well as temporary groups that are impoverished due to illness, disasters, etc., to achieve "disaster relief".

2. Expand the scope of special assistance. Special assistance projects such as medical care, education, and housing will be extended in a reasonable, timely, and appropriate manner to needy groups other than the minimum living allowance and five guarantees; for marginalized people in need who participate in the new rural cooperative medical care, on the basis of enjoying the reimbursement of the new rural cooperative medical care, they will be provided with Appropriate reimbursement policies; integrate the housing projects in charge of the Civil Affairs Bureau and the Disabled Persons' Federation, and expand the scope of assistance to marginalized people in need, disabled people, and preferential treatment recipients other than the minimum living allowance and five guarantees.

(3) Further improve the rescue mechanism and improve the level of rescue management.

1. Establish an approval mechanism for families in need. Scientifically adjust the income statistical items, reasonably consider expenditure factors, and ensure that all households that meet the minimum living standards are included in the scope of minimum living security assistance, so as to achieve "all the benefits that should be provided".

2. Improve the dynamic supervision mechanism of subsistence allowances. Adhere to the combination of "protecting all the people who should be protected" and "exposing all the people who should be rescued", combining mass deliberation with law enforcement inspections, strengthening regular censuses and random surveys at the district and township levels, promptly announcing the basic information of rescue recipients to the public, and widely accepting social supervision. Assistance will be canceled promptly for families that do not meet the assistance standards and loopholes will be plugged.

3. Establish a support mechanism to increase the income of the masses. We should persist in combining social assistance with efforts to increase the income of people in need, focus on skills training, job development, employment policy support, etc., improve the ability of poor people to seek self-employment and start their own businesses, and turn "blood transfusion" into "blood production". Fundamentally eliminate poor families.

(4) Increase financial investment and expand assistance coverage.

1. Appropriately increase the proportion of district-level minimum living security funds. Township-level subdivisions will be subsidized in appropriate proportions from district-level fiscal funds to reduce financial pressure on townships and sub-districts.

2. Incorporate temporary relief into the district financial budget. Together with the original social assistance funds, special account management will be implemented to ensure that the funds are received in full and in a timely manner and are earmarked for special use.

3. Accelerate the construction of centralized support facilities for the five guarantees. In accordance with the principle of being based on the present and focusing on the long term, we adhere to government leadership, diversified investment, and a combination of expansion and new construction to accelerate the renewal and transformation of district and township nursing homes. We will integrate the 27 nursing homes in the district according to regions and expand them into 5 regional comprehensive nursing homes. Center, a comprehensive elderly care center will be built in the urban planning area to improve hardware facilities and service levels, attract more elderly people with five guarantees to enter the hospital for elderly care, and at the same time open it to the elderly in society to maximize the utilization of elderly care resources.

(5) Strengthen relief charity and build a social assistance system with diverse participation.

1. Cultivate and build a charity brand. Based on social groups and enterprises, we actively cultivate and develop a number of charity brands to raise funds for social assistance.

2. Innovate relief and fundraising methods. Promote new fundraising methods such as "one-time pledge, annual donation", "directional donation, naming fund" and encourage social forces to actively participate in social assistance.

3. Strengthen the construction of charitable organizations. Establish charity association branches in various towns and streets throughout the region to form a charitable donation network covering the entire region.

(6) Strengthen publicity and education and create a good scope for social assistance.

1. Strengthen the publicity of rescue policies. Make full use of broadcast media and other forms to comprehensively and in-depth publicize assistance standards, application procedures and other relevant policies, so that social assistance policies can be deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.

2. Strengthen quality education for the masses. We will carry out in-depth educational activities with the theme of "It is glorious to be independent and self-reliant, but it is shameful to cheat and be lazy" to guide poor families who do not meet the rescue standards to establish a correct awareness of voluntary withdrawal of insurance.

3. Strengthen the publicity of advanced models. Extensively publicize typical examples of philanthropy, promote the traditional virtues of helping each other and helping the poor, and create a good atmosphere in which the whole society cares about, participates in, and supports social assistance.
