The private economy is a new force in promoting Chinese-style modernization and an important foundation for high-quality development. On March 4, the Shanghai delegation held a plenary meeting, and after deliberation and discussion, it planned to submit a proposal to the conference on the formulation of the "Law of the People's Republic of China on the Promotion of Private Economy". The deputies expressed the hope that this basic law on the development of the private economy will be promulgated as soon as possible, that the requirements for equal treatment of state-owned enterprises and private enterprises will be implemented at the institutional and legal levels, and that the development and growth of the private-run economy and private enterprises will be encouraged and supported.
The delegates suggested that by speeding up the formulation of relevant laws, the confidence and vitality of the development of the private economy should be further stimulated in terms of status and function, political and business relations, market access, access to factors, fair competition, fair law enforcement, and protection of rights and interests, so as to protect the legitimate rights and interests of the private economy and promote high-quality economic development.
Break down hidden barriers and allow representatives of the private economy to participate in legislation.
In February this year, the Ministry of Justice, the National Development and Reform Commission, and the Legislative Affairs Committee of the Standing Committee of the National People's Congress jointly held a symposium on legislative work, at which it was revealed that the drafting of the law on the promotion of the private economy had been launched.
Zhou Tongyu, deputy to the National People's Congress and vice chairman of the Shanghai Federation of Industry and Commerce.
The rule of law is the best business environment, and it is hoped that the majority of representatives of the private economy can actively participate in legislation to further boost the confidence of private enterprises. Zhou Tongyu, deputy to the National People's Congress and vice chairman of the Shanghai Federation of Industry and Commerce, said that speeding up the formulation of the basic law on the development of the private economy will better play the role of legislation in promoting the development of the private economy.
She listed such a set of data: as of the end of September last year, the number of registered private enterprises in the country exceeded 52 million, accounting for 92 percent of the total number of enterprises3%。Since the reform and opening up, the private economy has made important contributions to China's economic and social development, contributing more than 50% of tax revenue, more than 60% of GDP, more than 70% of technological innovation achievements, more than 80% of urban labor employment, and more than 90% of the number of enterprises.
Zhou Tongyu said frankly that although China has successively introduced and implemented a series of important policy documents such as the "Opinions of the Communist Party of China on Promoting the Development and Growth of the Private Economy" in recent years, due to the lack of specific institutional guidance, private enterprises still have a certain "temperature difference" in policy support - market competition faces hidden barriers, financing credit, credit repair, enterprise burden reduction and other inclusive inclusiveness is weak, inclusive and prudential supervision and corporate compliance effectiveness is still insufficient, which to a certain extent restricts the healthy development of the private economy.
In her view, speeding up the legislative process of the Basic Law on the Development of the Private Economy is to implement the policy propositions on the private economy into specific measures, and it is the proper meaning of consolidating the practical achievements of China's private economy and promoting the in-depth development of reform and opening up. She suggested that in the legislative process, we should focus on the problems of private economic development, implement the major concept of whole-process people's democracy, build an institutional system that meets the needs of the high-quality development of China's private economy, and "enhance the perception of private enterprises and treat private enterprises and private entrepreneurs as their own people".
Build a pro-Qing political and business relationship, and establish the principle of equal access through legislation.
A number of deputies mentioned that with regard to the Basic Law on the Development of the Private Economy, it is necessary to legislate and regulate issues related to market access and access to key factors, and to pay attention to the comprehensiveness, systematization and coordination of legislation, so as to promote, guarantee and regulate the development of the private economy.
For the private economy, fair access is very important. Tian Xuan, deputy dean of the PBC School of Finance of Tsinghua University, believes that it is necessary to establish the principle of equal access through legislation, remove market access barriers, cancel unnecessary administrative licenses, reduce administrative approval procedures, and lower the capital and technical thresholds for market access. At the same time, legislation should establish the principle of equal access to factors, eliminate unreasonable barriers, and ensure that private enterprises can participate in fair competition in terms of capital, land, technology, talent and other factor resources. In addition, it is necessary to clearly and comprehensively build pro-Qing political and business relations, and implement the experience and practices such as the positive list and negative list system for the performance of duties through legislation and law. In his view, there has been a good attempt in the Lingang New Area of the Shanghai Pilot Free Trade Zone, through the formulation of the macro system, so that the effective market and the promising market can be better combined, to ensure that the private economy and other ownership economies compete fairly, and to protect the rights and interests of private enterprises.
