2007年温总理政府工作报告中英文版 [复制链接]

We energetically developed culture and sports. The press and publishing, radio, television, film, literature and art, philosophy and the social sciences flourished. Culture-related facilities, especially in rural areas, were improved. The project to expand radio and television coverage in rural areas was extended from incorporated villages to unincorporated villages. Continued progress was made in the project to build multi-use cultural centers in communities, towns and townships and the national shared database project for cultural information and resources. Reform of the cultural management system was deepened. Development of the culture industry was accelerated, and cultural exchanges with other countries were increased. Sports activities for the general public were extensively developed, and the level of competitive sports continued to improve. Efforts to promote socialist cultural and ethical progress were strengthened.
积极发展文化、体育事业。新闻出版、广播影视、文学艺术、哲学社会科学进一步繁荣。文化基础设施尤其是农村基层文化设施建设得到加强，广播电视村村通工程由行政村向自然村延伸，社区和乡镇综合文化站工程、全国文化信息资源共享工程建设继续推进。文化体制改革进一步深化，文化产业加快发展，对外文化交流更加活跃。全民体育活动广泛开展，竞技体育水平不断提高。社会主义精神文明建设继续加强。

6. We worked hard to increase employment and improve social security work. We continued to improve and implement policies on employment and reemployment, and the central government allocated 23.4 billion yuan for employment and reemployment efforts. We created jobs through a variety of channels, stepped up vocational and technical training, provided support and assistance to zero-employment households and people who have difficulty finding employment, and helped 5.05 million laid-off workers find new jobs. The goal set out in 2004 to basically solve the longstanding problems of defaults on payment to construction companies and unpaid wages for rural migrant workers in the construction industry within three years was basically met. A total of 183.4 billion yuan has been paid to construction companies, paying off 98.6% of the total amount owed to them. This payment included 33 billion yuan in overdue wages for rural migrant workers.
（六）努力做好就业和社会保障工作。进一步完善和落实就业再就业扶持政策，中央财政安排就业再就业资金234亿元。多渠道开发就业岗位，加强职业技能培训工作，开展对“零就业家庭”和就业困难人员的帮扶，505万下岗失业人员实现再就业。2004年我们提出用三年时间基本解决建设领域历史上拖欠工程款和农民工工资的问题，这项工作基本完成，各地已偿还拖欠工程款1834亿元，占历史拖欠的98.6%，其中清付农民工工资330亿元。

The social safety net was strengthened. Trials to fully fund personal accounts for basic old-age insurance of enterprise employees were expanded to eight more province-level localities on the basis of the pilot project in the three provinces in northeast China. After years of effort, the work of incorporating basic cost of living allowances for workers laid off from SOEs into the unemployment insurance system has been basically completed. Basic pension benefits for retired enterprise employees were increased. The coverage of the social security system was further expanded, revenue from social security premiums increased, and oversight and management of social security funds was strengthened. The basic framework of a social assistance system for both urban and rural residents was set up, and charity programs continued to grow. The central government spent 13.6 billion yuan on basic cost of living allowances for urban residents, 2.4 billion yuan more than the previous year, and local governments also increased their spending on these allowances to varying degrees. A system of basic cost of living allowances for rural residents was initiated in 2,133 counties, county-level cities and city districts in 25 provinces, autonomous regions and municipalities directly under the central government, benefiting 15.09 million residents. Funding for providing food, clothing, medical care, housing and burial expenses for childless and infirm rural residents now mainly comes from the government budget instead of depending on rural collectives. Assistance for orphans and protection for homeless juveniles were strengthened. Allowances for all types of entitled groups were increased significantly, with an 11.2 billion yuan allocation from the central government budget, a 47% increase from the previous year. We improved the policy for compensating people whose land has been expropriated to build large or medium-sized reservoirs and for assisting people displaced for reservoir projects, benefiting 22.88 million persons. This longstanding problem is now being gradually solved.
加强社会保障体系建设。在东北三省试点的基础上，企业职工基本养老保险做实个人账户试点范围又扩大了8个省份。经过多年努力，国有企业下岗职工基本生活保障向失业保险并轨基本完成。提高了企业离退休人员基本养老金标准。社会保险覆盖面继续扩大，社会保险基金收入不断增加，社保基金使用的监督管理得到加强。城乡社会救助体系框架基本建立，慈善事业不断发展。中央财政用于城市低保的补助资金136亿元，比上年增加24亿元，各地不同程度提高了城市低保补助水平。已有25个省（自治区、直辖市）、2133个县（市、区）初步建立了农村最低生活保障制度，1509万农民享受了农村最低生活保障。基本实现了农村“五保”从农民集体互助共济向财政供养为主的转变。加强了孤儿救助和流浪未成年人保护工作。大幅度提高各类优抚对象的抚恤补助标准，全年中央财政抚恤事业费支出112亿元，比上年增长47%。完善大中型水库征地补偿和移民后期扶持政策，扶持对象达2288万人，这个长期遗留的问题正在逐步解决。

Last year, some areas in China were hit by natural disasters of a severity seldom seen in history, including typhoons and droughts. We promptly took steps to carry out disaster relief work and rebuild disaster-hit areas. The central government raised some disaster relief allowances and allocated 11.2 billion yuan in relief funds to help disaster victims get back on their feet.
去年，我国部分地区遭受了历史上罕见的超强台风和特大干旱等严重自然灾害。我们及时部署加强抗灾救灾和灾后重建工作。全年中央财政下拨抗灾救灾资金112亿元，提高了部分救灾补助标准，受灾群众生产生活得到妥善安置。

7. We continued to strengthen democracy and the legal system. Democracy at the community level made continued progress. Government-sponsored legislation was further improved. The State Council submitted seven bills to the Standing Committee of the National People's Congress (NPC) for deliberation, including the Law on Corporate Income Tax (draft), the Antitrust Law (draft), the Law on Response to Emergencies (draft) and the revised Compulsory Education Law (draft), and promulgated 29 sets of administrative regulations, including the Regulations on AIDS Prevention and Control and the Regulations on the Administration of Overseas-Funded Banks. We accelerated development of government by the rule of law and implemented the Administrative Permit Law, the Civil Service Law, and the Program for Advancing All Aspects of Government Administration in Accordance with the Law. Oversight in the form of supervision and auditing was strengthened. Steady progress was made in reform of the judicial administrative system and its working mechanisms. The work of addressing public complaints registered by means of letters and visits was strengthened. In public security, continued improvements were made in the crime prevention and control system and extensive efforts were made to promote peace and security. Significant progress was made in work focused on improving conditions in areas with poor public security and in addressing serious public security issues. An all-out effort was made to build clean government and combat corruption and a campaign to combat bribery in business was launched. A number of major cases involving government offices and their employees were investigated and dealt with, and a number of people guilty of corruption were punished to the full extent of the law.
（七）继续加强民主法制建设。基层民主政治建设不断推进。政府立法工作进一步加强。国务院向全国人大常委会提请审议企业所得税法草案、反垄断法草案、突发事件应对法草案和义务教育法修订草案等7件法律议案，颁布了艾滋病防治条例、外资银行管理条例等29个行政法规。加快建设法治政府，认真贯彻行政许可法、公务员法和全面推进依法行政实施纲要。监察、审计监督工作力度加大。司法行政体制和工作机制改革稳步推进。信访工作得到加强。社会治安防控体系不断完善，平安创建活动广泛开展。集中整治治安混乱地区和突出治安问题取得明显成效。廉政建设和反腐败斗争深入推进，开展治理商业贿赂专项工作，严肃查处了一批涉及政府机关及其工作人员的大案要案，依法惩处了一批腐败分子。

Work related to ethnic groups, religions, Hong Kong, Macao, Taiwan and overseas Chinese was further improved. We continued to make progress in modernizing national defense and the army. Significant progress was made in China's diplomatic work.
民族、宗教、港澳、对台和侨务工作进一步加强。国防和军队现代化建设取得新进展。外交工作成绩显著。

Looking back on our practical experience, we have come to the following conclusion: We must free our minds, follow a realistic and pragmatic approach, keep pace with the times, work hard with a pioneering and innovative spirit, unswervingly take the road of Chinese socialism, adhere to the reform and opening up policy, pursue development according to scientific principles, maintain social harmony during development and ensure peaceful development. Only by doing so can we attain the ultimate objectives we have set for modernization.
总结我们的实践经验，归结起来就是，只有解放思想、实事求是，与时俱进、开拓创新，坚定不移地走中国特色社会主义道路，坚持改革开放，坚持科学发展、和谐发展、和平发展，才能最终实现现代化的宏伟目标。

We owe our successes to the correct overall leadership of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China (CPC) with Comrade Hu Jintao as General Secretary and to the concerted efforts and hard work of cadres and the people across the country. On behalf of the State Council, I would like to express my sincere thanks to the people of all our ethnic groups, the democratic parties, people's organizations and persons from all walks of life. I would also like to sincerely thank our compatriots from the Hong Kong and Macao special administrative regions and Taiwan as well as overseas Chinese. My sincere thanks also go out to all the friends of China around the world who care about and support China's modernization.
我们取得的成就，是以胡锦涛同志为总书记的党中央统揽全局、正确领导的结果，是全国广大干部群众齐心协力、顽强拼搏的结果。我代表国务院，向全国各族人民，向各民主党派、各人民团体和各界人士，表示诚挚的感谢！向香港特别行政区同胞、澳门特别行政区同胞和台湾同胞以及广大侨胞，表示诚挚的感谢！向一切关心和支持中国现代化建设的各国朋友，表示诚挚的感谢！

看完还真能学点新东西

However, we are clearly aware that there are still many difficulties and challenges in China's economic and social development and some shortcomings and inadequacies in the work of the government.
我们也清醒地看到，我国经济社会发展中仍然存在不少矛盾和问题，政府工作还有一些缺点和不足。

First, there are still serious structural problems in the economy. There is a lack of proper balance among primary, secondary and tertiary industry, urban and rural development and development among different regions are not balanced, and the pattern of investment does not reflect consumer demand. Agriculture, the base of the economy, remains weak, and it is now more difficult than ever to steadily increase grain production and keep rural incomes growing. The overall scale of investment in fixed assets is still too large, the problem of excess liquidity in the banking system is serious, and the factors causing overheated investment and excess credit still remain. The trade surplus has become large, and the imbalance in international payments has worsened.
一是经济结构矛盾突出。一二三产业比例不合理，城乡之间、地区之间发展不平衡，投资消费关系不协调。农业基础薄弱状况没有改变，粮食稳定增产和农民持续增收难度加大。固定资产投资总规模依然偏大，银行资金流动性过剩问题突出，引发投资增长过快、信贷投放过多的因素仍然存在。外贸顺差较大，国际收支不平衡矛盾加剧。

Second, the pattern of economic growth is inefficient. This can be seen most clearly in excessive energy consumption and serious environmental pollution. The targets for saving energy and reducing pollutant emissions were set forth in the Eleventh Five-Year Plan. This is of vital importance in efforts to promote the change in the pattern of economic growth and increase energy conservation and environmental protection. All local governments and government offices did a great deal of work and made much headway in these areas over the past year. While energy consumption per unit of GDP for the previous three years rose by 4.9%, 5.5% and 0.2% respectively, it dropped by 1.2% in 2006. Growth in total emission of major pollutants declined, chemical oxygen demand rose 1.2%, down from an increase of 5.6% the year before, and discharge of sulfur dioxide rose 1.8%, down from a 13.1% gain in the previous year. However, we fell short of the targets set at the beginning of last year for cutting energy consumption per unit of GDP by about 4% and total discharge of major pollutants by 2%. The main reasons were: Industrial restructuring proceeded slowly, while growth in heavy industry, especially in sectors that are high in energy consumption or are highly polluting, was still overheated. Many backward production facilities that should have been closed down are still in operation. Finally, some local governments and enterprises failed to strictly comply with laws, regulations and standards for energy saving and environmental protection, and it will take time for relevant policies and measures to produce the desired results. Meeting these two mandatory targets in the Eleventh Five-Year Plan is very important. The targets cannot be revised, so we must work resolutely to reach them. The State Council will make annual reports on the progress made in saving energy and reducing emissions to the NPC starting this year, and at the end of the Eleventh Five-Year Plan period it will report on the overall progress made over the five years.
二是经济增长方式粗放。突出表现在能源消耗高、环境污染重。“十一五”规划提出了节能降耗和污染减排目标，并作为约束性指标。这对于推动经济增长方式转变、加强节能环保工作具有十分重要的意义。一年来，各地区各部门做了大量工作，取得了积极进展。2006年，单位国内生产总值能耗由前三年分别上升4.9％、5.5％、0.2％，转为下降1.2%；主要污染物排放总量增幅减缓，化学需氧量、二氧化硫排放量由上年分别增长5.6％和13.1％，减为增长1.2%和1.8%。但是，全国没有实现年初确定的单位国内生产总值能耗降低4%左右、主要污染物排放总量减少2%的目标。主要原因是：产业结构调整进展缓慢，重工业特别是高耗能、高污染行业增长仍然偏快，不少应该淘汰的落后生产能力还没有退出市场，一些地方和企业没有严格执行节能环保法规和标准，有关政策措施取得明显成效需要一个过程。“十一五”规划提出这两个约束性指标是一件十分严肃的事情，不能改变，必须坚定不移地去实现，国务院以后每年都要向全国人大报告节能减排的进展情况，并在“十一五”期末报告五年这两个指标的总体完成情况。

Third, a number of serious problems affecting the people's interests have not been properly addressed. Problems in food and drug safety, medical services, education charges, housing, income distribution, public security and production safety remain a source of public concern. Problems arising in land expropriation and requisition, housing demolition, transformation of enterprises into stock companies and environmental protection that harm the interests of the people have not been fundamentally solved. Life remains difficult for many low-income people.
三是一些涉及群众利益的突出问题解决得不够好。食品药品安全、医疗服务、教育收费、居民住房、收入分配、社会治安、安全生产等方面还存在群众不满意的问题，土地征收征用、房屋拆迁、企业改制、环境保护等方面损害群众利益的问题仍未能根本解决。不少低收入群众生活比较困难。

Fourth, the government's efforts to improve its performance still have room for improvement. Moves to change the way the government functions have not made the expected progress, non-separation of government administration and enterprise management remains a problem, and the responsibilities of some government offices are not clear, leading to low productivity. Expenses related to carrying out official duties have not been standardized, and extravagance and waste are inflating administrative costs. In some local governments and government offices and among a small number of their employees, there are problems of bureaucratism, formalism, isolation from the people, neglect or dereliction of duty and even abuse of power and corruption. The root cause of these problems lies in institutional deficiencies and poor oversight.
四是政府自身建设存在一些问题。政府职能转变滞后，政企不分依然存在，有些部门职责不清，办事效率低；公务消费不规范，奢侈浪费，行政成本高；一些地方、部门和少数工作人员还存在官僚主义、形式主义，脱离群众，失职渎职，甚至滥用权力，贪污腐败。存在这些问题，根本在于制度不健全、监管不到位。
We must maintain a strong sense of responsibility to the country and the people and take more forceful measures to solve them in order to live up to the expectations of the people.
我们必须以对国家和人民高度负责的精神，采取更加有力的措施，切实解决这些问题，决不辜负人民的期望。

II. General Plan for Work in 2007
二、2007年工作总体部署
This is the last year for the term of this government, so we must do our best to carry out our duties with even greater drive and work tirelessly to do even better in all our work in order to deliver a good report to the people.
今年是本届政府任期的最后一年，我们要以更加昂扬的精神状态，恪尽职守，积极进取，毫不懈怠，努力把各项工作做得更好，向人民交出满意的答卷。
The basic approach and tasks for the work of the government are: to take Deng Xiaoping Theory and the important thought of Three Represents as our guide and fully implement the Scientific Outlook on Development; to accelerate the building of a harmonious socialist society; to conscientiously implement the principles and policies the CPC introduced since its Sixteenth National Congress; to strengthen and improve macroeconomic regulation; to speed up adjustment of the economic structure and change of the pattern of economic growth; to strengthen resource conservation and environmental protection; to advance the reform and opening up policy and independent innovation; to promote social development and resolve issues related to the people's wellbeing; and to promote all aspects of socialist economic, political, cultural and social development to create a good environment and favorable conditions for the convening of the Seventeenth National Congress of the CPC.
政府工作的基本思路和任务是：以邓小平理论和“三个代表”重要思想为指导，全面落实科学发展观，加快构建社会主义和谐社会，认真贯彻党的十六大以来各项方针政策，加强和改善宏观调控，着力调整经济结构和转变增长方式，着力加强资源节约和环境保护，着力推进改革开放和自主创新，着力促进社会发展和解决民生问题，全面推进社会主义经济建设、政治建设、文化建设、社会建设，为党的十七大召开创造良好的环境和条件。
Taking into consideration all factors, we have decided on the following main goals for China's economic and social development this year: On the basis of structural improvement, improved productivity, reduced consumption of energy and environmental protection, GDP is forecast to grow by about 8%, the number of jobs created in urban areas should be at least 9 million, and the rate of registered urban unemployment should be kept below 4.6%. The overall price level should remain basically stable, the overall increase in consumer prices should stay below 3%, and there should be improvement in the imbalance in international payments.
综合考虑各种因素，今年国民经济和社会发展的主要目标是：在优化结构、提高效益和降低消耗、保护环境的基础上，国内生产总值增长8%左右；城镇新增就业人数不低于900万人，城镇登记失业率控制在4.6%以内；物价总水平基本稳定，居民消费价格总水平涨幅在3%以内；国际收支不平衡状况得到改善。

It is important to mention here that in a socialist market economy, a target for GDP growth set by the government is a guide and an indicator of the anticipated level. It serves as an important basis for setting macroeconomic targets for the budget, employment and prices. Because of changes in the domestic and international economic environments including the market, the real GDP growth rate will vary a certain amount from the projected target. In setting the target for GDP growth around 8% for 2007, we have taken into account a number of factors, such as what is needed and what is feasible. The most important task for us is to promote sound and fast economic development. To attain this goal, we should guide all sectors of the economy to conscientiously put into practice the Scientific Outlook on Development, focus on improving the economic structure and economic performance, saving energy, reducing energy consumption and cutting down on the discharge of pollutants, and to avoid seeking only faster growth an d competing for the fastest growth.
这里要着重说明，在社会主义市场经济条件下，政府提出国内生产总值增长速度的目标，是一个预期性、指导性指标，是提出财政预算、就业、物价等宏观经济指标的重要依据。由于国内外经济环境和市场变化等影响，最终实现的国内生产总值增长速度与预期目标可能会有一定差距。提出今年国内生产总值增长8%左右的目标，综合考虑了需要和可能等多种因素，更重要的是要引导各方面认真落实科学发展观，把工作重点放到优化结构、提高效益、节能降耗和污染减排上来，防止片面追求和盲目攀比增长速度，实现经济又好又快发展。

In order to realize the goals and complete the tasks for this year's economic and social development, we must closely adhere to the following policies and principles:
　实现今年经济社会发展的目标和任务，必须把握好以下政策原则：
First, we must stabilize, improve and implement policies. Stabilizing policies means ensuring the continuity and consistency of macroeconomic policy and continuing to follow prudent fiscal and monetary policies. Improving policies means promptly revising policies and measures in response to new developments in the operation of the economy and finding specific solutions to serious issues and problems. Implementing policies means conscientiously implementing all policies and measures of the central government, improving the ability to implement policies and truly putting all policy decisions into effect.
一是稳定、完善和落实政策。稳定，就是保持宏观经济政策的连续性和稳定性，继续实施稳健的财政政策和货币政策。完善，就是根据经济运行新情况及时完善政策措施，有针对性地解决突出矛盾和问题。落实，就是认真落实中央的各项政策措施，增强执行力，真正把各项决策部署落到实处。

Second, we must strengthen and improve macroeconomic regulation. The focus of this work is to keep the scale of fixed asset investment and credit under control and to promote overall balance between total supply and total demand while improving the structure. We must encourage growth in some sectors and discourage it in others, treating each sector according to its specific situation, and make more use of economic levers and legal means to guide and standardize economic activity. We need to correctly balance the relationship between central and local government organizations to give full play to the initiative of each.
二是加强和改善宏观调控。重点是控制固定资产投资和信贷规模，在优化结构中促进经济总量平衡。坚持有保有压，不搞一刀切。更多地运用经济杠杆、法律手段引导和规范经济行为。正确处理中央和地方的关系，充分发挥两个积极性。

Third, we need to greatly improve the quality and efficiency of economic growth. We must attach greater importance to saving energy and resources, protecting the environment and using land intensively, pay close attention to improving product quality, strengthen the competitiveness of the economy and better ensure the sustainability of economic development.
三是大力提高经济增长质量和效益。把节约能源资源、保护环境、集约用地放在更加突出的位置，注重提高产品质量，增强经济竞争力和可持续发展能力。

Fourth, we need to pay closer attention to promoting social development and improving the people's wellbeing. We must put people first, promote faster progress in social programs, work energetically to solve the most practical problems that are of greatest concern to the people and most directly affect their interests, safeguard social fairness and justice, and ensure that all of the people share in the fruits of reform and development.
四是更加重视社会发展和改善民生。坚持以人为本，促进社会事业加快发展，积极解决人民群众最关心、最直接、最现实的利益问题，维护社会公平正义，让全体人民共享改革发展成果。

Fifth, we need to make reform and opening up the driving force behind all our work. We must continue in the direction of reform to develop the socialist market economy. In order to meet the requirements for economic and social development, we need to promote economic, political, cultural and social restructuring and accelerate the establishment of institutional guarantees for implementing the Scientific Outlook on Development and building a harmonious society. We need to make China more open to the outside world in all respects.
五是以改革开放为动力推进各项工作。坚持社会主义市场经济改革方向，适应经济社会发展要求，推进经济体制、政治体制、文化体制、社会体制改革，加快构筑落实科学发展观和建设和谐社会的体制保障。全面提高对外开放水平。
III. Promoting Both Sound and Fast Development of the Economy

三、促进经济又好又快发展
Looking at the overall situation, we need to concentrate on the following areas in promoting this year's economic development:
通观全局，今年经济发展要着重抓好以下几个方面：
1. We will continue to strengthen and improve macroeconomic regulation.
（一）坚持加强和改善宏观调控
We need to continue to follow a prudent fiscal policy.
继续实行稳健的财政政策
One, we will reduce the budget deficit and the amount of long-term development treasury bonds issued by an appropriate amount. The deficit for the central government budget this year is set at 245 billion yuan, down 50 billion yuan from last year. We plan to issue 50 billion yuan of long-term development treasury bonds, down 10 billion yuan from last year. We also plan to allocate 80.4 billion yuan from the central government budget for investment in regular development projects, up 25 billion yuan from last year. Total central government investment in development projects is expected to be 130.4 billion yuan.
一是适当减少财政赤字和长期建设国债规模。今年中央财政赤字拟安排2450亿元，比去年预算赤字减少500亿元；拟安排长期建设国债500亿元，比去年减少100亿元；拟安排中央预算内经常性建设投资804亿元，比去年预算增加250亿元；中央政府建设投资总规模为1304亿元。

Two, the structure of budgetary expenditures and government investment will be improved to put more emphasis on key areas. "Increase in three areas" must be ensured in the use of government funds, i.e. a year-on-year increase in investment to directly improve living and working conditions in rural areas, investment in social programs such as elementary education and public health, and investment in the large-scale development of the western region. In addition, we will increase expenditures for energy conservation, environmental protection and independent innovation.
二是政府预算支出和政府投资要优化结构、突出重点。政府投资使用要确保“三个高于”，即：用于直接改善农村生产生活条件的投入高于上年，用于基础教育和公共卫生等社会事业的投入高于上年，用于西部大开发的投入高于上年。同时，加大对节能环保和自主创新的支持。

Three, we will spend the excess revenue in the central government budget in an appropriate way. Because of the fact that actual economic growth exceeded targets plus some policy factors that increased revenue, the central government revenue has exceeded the targets in recent years by a fair amount. The average annual amount of revenue over the target for the years 2003 through 2006 was 204 billion yuan, with last year's surplus reaching 257.3 billion yuan. The excess revenue was mainly spent for the following purposes: to pay off longstanding arrears in export tax rebates and payments for returning farmland to forests, to increase tax rebates and general transfer payments to local governments in accordance with the law, to increase legally mandated expenditures for education, science and technology, and to increase expenditures for the social security fund, for policy-mandated bankruptcy of enterprises and for basic cost of living allowances for residents. Fifty billion yuan will be allocated from last year's excess revenue to establish a central budget stability fund this year. The fund makes it possible to compile the central government budget more scientifically and rationally, and helps keep it stable and preserve the continuity of fiscal policy. The use of this fund will be put under budgetary control and subject to the oversight of the NPC. We must strengthen the management of public finance, work very hard to increase revenue, reduce expenditures, practice strict economy, combat extravagance and waste, and ensure the efficient use of public funds. We must administer taxes in accordance with the law, strengthen the collection and management of tax revenue and standardize the management of non-tax government revenue.
三是合理安排中央财政超收收入。近几年，由于实际经济增长高于预期目标，加上一些政策性增收因素，中央财政超收较多。从2003年到2006年年均超收2040亿元，其中去年超收2573亿元。超收收入主要用于解决出口退税和退耕还林等历史欠账，依法增加对地方税收返还和一般转移支付，增加教育、科技等法定支出，增加社会保障基金、企业政策性破产、居民最低生活保障等支出。今年拟从去年超收收入中安排500亿元设立中央预算稳定调节基金。这样做，有利于更加科学合理地编制预算，有利于保持中央预算的稳定性和财政政策的连续性。这个基金的使用纳入预算管理，接受全国人大监督。要加强财政管理，狠抓增收节支，厉行勤俭节约，反对铺张浪费，提高财政资金使用效益。大力推进依法治税，强化税收征管，规范政府非税收入管理。

We will continue to follow a prudent monetary policy. We must employ a full range of monetary policy tools to appropriately control the supply of money and credit and effectively address the problem of excess liquidity in the banking system. We will adjust and improve the credit structure to guide banks to increase credit support for agriculture, rural areas, farmers, small and medium-sized enterprises, energy conservation, environmental protection and independent innovation. We must continue to control long- and medium-term loans and strictly limit loans to backward enterprises that consume high quantities of energy or are highly polluting and poorly performing enterprises in industries with excess production capacity. We will promote steady reform of interest rates to better reflect market conditions. We will improve the mechanism for setting the RMB exchange rate, strengthen and improve foreign exchange administration, and actively explore and develop channels and means for appropriately using state foreign exchange reserves. We will adopt a variety of measures to gradually ease the imbalance in international payments.
继续实行稳健的货币政策。综合运用多种货币政策工具，合理调控货币信贷总量，有效缓解银行资金流动性过剩问题。调整和优化信贷结构，引导银行加大对“三农”、中小企业、节能环保和自主创新的信贷支持；继续控制中长期贷款，严格限制对高耗能、高污染企业和产能过剩行业的落后企业贷款。稳步推进利率市场化改革。进一步完善人民币汇率形成机制。加强和改进外汇管理，积极探索和拓展国家外汇储备合理使用的渠道和方式。从多方面采取措施，逐步改善国际收支不平衡状况。

We need to adjust the balance between investment and consumption. We must adhere to the principle of boosting domestic demand, focusing on expanding consumer demand. We will deepen reform of the income distribution system to narrow the increasing gaps in income levels and expand consumer demand. We will take a variety of measures to increase the incomes of both urban and rural residents, especially low- and middle-income persons. We will make appropriate adjustments in and strictly follow the minimum wage system, implement minimum wage standards for part-time workers, strengthen regulation and guidance for income distribution in enterprises, and set up sound mechanisms for regular pay increases and regular payment of wages. All local governments should conduct a general survey of compliance with the minimum wage system and minimum wage standards for part-time workers. We will continue to implement the policies and measures for reforming the salary system for civil servants, standardizing the pattern of income distribution among civil servants and adjusting the benefits they receive. High priority should be given to expanding consumer demand in rural areas, implementing policies and measures to stimulate increase in incomes and reduction of the financial burden of rural residents, and improving the distribution of goods, development of the market system, and the environment and conditions for increasing consumer spending in rural areas. We need to improve policies on consumption, vigorously develop consumption growth areas such as tourism, culture, recreation and exercise, and expand consumption.
调整投资和消费的关系。坚持扩大内需方针，重点扩大消费需求。深化收入分配制度改革，既可以缓解收入差距扩大的矛盾，又可以有效增加消费需求。要采取多种措施，努力增加城乡居民收入特别是中低收入者的收入。合理调整和严格执行最低工资制度，落实小时最低工资标准，加强企业工资分配调控和指导，建立健全工资正常增长机制和支付机制。今年各地要对最低工资制度和小时最低工资标准的执行情况，普遍进行一次检查。继续落实公务员工资制度改革、规范公务员收入分配秩序及调整相关人员待遇的政策措施。特别要扩大农村消费需求，认真落实促进农民增收减负的政策措施，加强农村商贸流通和市场体系建设，改善农村消费环境和条件。完善消费政策，积极培育旅游、文化、休闲、健身等消费热点，扩大居民消费。
