The country's top discipline watchdog instructed its subordinates nationwide on Tuesday to watch closely for lavish banquets and gifts paid for with public funds during the upcoming Mid-Autumn Festival and National Day holiday.
Officials nationwide have been warned not to spend public money on gifts such as luxury moon-cakes - a popular food that Chinese people give and enjoy during the traditional Mid-Autumn Festival, which falls on Sept 19 this year -- according to a circular issued by the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection of the Communist Party of China.
The circular, the latest move by the Party to halt extravagance, also bans lavish banquets, entertainment and travel activities paid for with public funds, as well as the over-issuing of subsidies or bonuses to officials before and during the two holidays.
Officials, particularly those at top levels, have also been told to better educate and restrain their family members from such practices.
Discipline watchdogs at all levels have been told to closely supervise such practices. Any violators will be dealt with seriously, and violation cases will be exposed to the public, according to the top discipline watchdog.
The National Day holiday is from Oct 1 to 7 this year.
