Chinese Premier calls for production safety
BEIJING, Dec. 21 (Xinhua) -- Chinese Premier Wen Jiabao called for production safety and listened to a report of last year's auditing result here Wednesday when he chaired the standing committee meeting of the State Council.
According to the meeting, China's current production safety remains stark. Major and exceedingly big, deadly accidents have occurred frequently in coal mines and other key industries and they have brought great losses of lives and property damages.
The meeting suggested seven vital measures to curb coal mine accidents and articulated a safety development plan.
Among these measures, resolute efforts have to be made to close down those collieries and pits that do not have adequate conditions for safety production, standardize or streamline coal resources, beef up the rigid control of coal mining development projects, and enhance the management of mining operation as well as law enforcement in mining enterprises.
The report of the 2004 central budget operation and other fiscal auditing were also released at the meeting. Illegal cases were already in the procedure of law management.
