On December 22nd, Li Keqiang, member of the Political Bureau of the CPC Central Committee and Premier of the State Council, presided over a meeting of the Leading Group for the formulation of the "Outline Draft" of the State Council's "Fifteenth Five-Year Plan", to conduct in-depth research on the formulation of the "Outline Draft". Ding Xuexiang, member of the Political Bureau of the CPC Central Committee and Vice Premier of the State Council, attended the meeting. At the meeting, the National Development and Reform Commission reported on the progress of the formulation of the "Outline Draft", and the attendees discussed the issue. Li Keqiang stated that the formulation of the "Fifteenth Five-Year Plan" outline is an important task at present. General Secretary Xi Jinping has clearly stated the requirements for the work of formulating the plan at the Central Economic Work Conference. We need to deeply study and implement these requirements and further improve the formulation of the "Outline Draft". Li Keqiang pointed out that the formulation of the "Outline Draft" has now laid a good foundation, and the next step is to concentrate efforts and strive for perfection in the revision and improvement work. The focus should be on better leveraging the leading role of planning, setting indicators, arranging policies, and planning projects around the theme of promoting high-quality development in order to promote qualitative and efficient growth of the economy. Efforts should be made to develop new productive forces, make breakthroughs in promoting technological innovation, accelerating the cultivation of new growth drivers, and promoting the optimization and upgrading of economic structure. It is necessary to further clarify tasks and measures, refine and implement the specific tasks outlined in the "Fifteenth Five-Year Plan" proposal to make the planning content more closely aligned with development needs. Plans should be made for major projects, major initiatives, and major platforms that can drive the overall development, accumulating new momentum for future development and fostering competitiveness, while also providing support for expanding domestic demand and stabilizing economic operation. It is important to deeply implement the requirements of reform and innovation, accurately grasp the phased characteristics of current development, overcome path dependence, and use reform and innovative methods efficiently to solve problems. It is crucial to combine policy support with reform and innovation, focus on injecting breakthroughs in the system mechanism, deep planing for new policies and measures, and to generate combined amplified effects. The plan should fully reflect the warmth of people's livelihoods, respond to social concerns, launch significant policies and projects that benefit the people and warm their hearts, and effectively address urgent issues faced by the public. It is important to identify the points of intersection between improving people's livelihoods and expanding domestic demand, fostering new economic growth points while enhancing people's well-being. Li Keqiang emphasized that the formulation of the "Outline Draft" should fully promote democracy, widely gather consensus, seriously listen to and absorb opinions and suggestions from all sectors, gather wisdom from all sides, and form a collaborative force. He Lifeng, Zhang Guoqing, Liu Guozhong, Wang Xiaohong, and Wu Zhenglong attended the meeting.
