Regulations of the CPC on Disciplinary Punishment

Part One General Principle

Chapter 1 Guiding ideology, principles, and scope of application

Article 1 These Regulations are formulated in accordance with the Constitution of the CPC in order to maintain the Party Constitution and other intra party laws and regulations, enforce Party discipline, purify the Party organization, safeguard the democratic rights of Party members, educate Party members to abide by discipline and laws, safeguard the unity of the Party, and ensure the implementation of the Party's line, principles, policies, resolutions, and national laws and regulations.

Article 2  The discipline construction of the Party must adhere to the guidance of Marxism Leninism, Mao Zedong Thought, Deng Xiaoping Theory, the important thought of the Three Represents, the Scientific Outlook on Development, and Xi Jinping Thought on Socialism with Chinese Characteristics for a New Era. We must uphold and strengthen the Party's comprehensive leadership, resolutely maintain the core position of General Secretary Xi Jinping as the Party Central Committee and the entire Party, resolutely uphold the authority and centralized unified leadership of the Party Central Committee, implement the general requirements of Party building in the new era and the strategic deployment of comprehensively governing the Party strictly, and comprehensively strengthen the Party's discipline construction.

Article 3  The Party Constitution is the most fundamental internal regulation and the general rule for governing the Party. The discipline of the Party is a set of behavioral rules that all levels of Party organizations and Party members must abide by. Party organizations and members must firmly establish political consciousness, overall situation consciousness, core consciousness, and alignment consciousness, consciously abide by the Party Constitution, strictly implement and maintain Party discipline, consciously accept Party discipline constraints, and model compliance with national laws and regulations.

Article 4 The disciplinary work of the Party shall adhere to the following principles:

（1） Adhere to the principle that the Party must manage the Party and comprehensively govern the Party strictly. Strengthen the education, management, and supervision of Party organizations at all levels and all Party members, put discipline at the forefront, and pay attention to early and small measures, and prevent problems from arising.

（2） All are equal before party discipline. Party organizations and members who violate party discipline must be strictly and fairly disciplined, and no party organization or member who is not bound by discipline is allowed within the party.

（3） Seek truth from facts. The behavior of Party organizations and Party members violating Party discipline should be based on facts, guided by the Party Constitution, other Party regulations, and national laws and regulations, accurately identifying the nature of the violation, distinguishing different situations, and appropriately handling it.

（4） Democratic centralism. The implementation of disciplinary actions against the Party shall be decided through collective discussion by the Party organization in accordance with the prescribed procedures, and no individual or minority is allowed to make decisions or approve them without authorization. The decisions made by higher-level party organizations to deal with party organizations and members who violate party discipline must be implemented by lower level party organizations.

（5） Punish the past and avoid the future, cure the disease and save lives. When dealing with party organizations and members who violate party discipline, a combination of punishment and education should be implemented to achieve a balance between leniency and strictness.

Article 5 Using the "four forms" of supervision and discipline enforcement, regularly conducting criticism and self-criticism, and conducting interviews and inquiries, making "blushing and sweating" the norm; Minor disciplinary actions and organizational adjustments have become the majority of disciplinary violations; Those who receive severe disciplinary actions and significant job adjustments have become a minority; Serious violations of discipline and suspected illegal cases have become extremely rare.

Article 6 This regulation applies to party organizations and party members who violate party discipline and should be held accountable for their actions.

Chapter 2  Violation and disciplinary action

Article 7 Party organizations and party members who violate the Party Constitution and other internal regulations, national laws and regulations, Party and state policies, socialist morality, and harm the interests of the Party, the state, and the people, shall be subject to disciplinary action or punishment in accordance with regulations.

If it is decided to revoke one of their positions, the highest position they held must be revoked.
