Original title: The investigation team of the State Council went to Zhengzhou to investigate, what did it investigate? How to check?

Beijing News Express (Reporter Wu Weizhan Shengjie) On August 2, the Information Office of the Henan Provincial Government held a press conference to announce that as of 12:00 on August 2, 302 people had been killed and 50 people were missing from the catastrophic flood; A total of 150 counties (cities, districts), 1663 townships and 14.531,600 people were affected in Henan Province.

Henan Province has experienced extremely heavy rainfall since July 17, especially Zhengzhou City suffered a heavy rain disaster on July 20, causing heavy casualties and property losses. The State Council decided to set up an investigation team, led by the Emergency Management Department, with participation of relevant parties to investigate the “July 20” heavy rain disaster in Zhengzhou, Henan.

What did the investigation team of the State Council investigate against natural disasters? How will the investigation team work? What will happen after the investigation?

  What the local government must do in response to a disaster is clearly stipulated in the law

According to news from Xinhua News Agency on August 2, “the investigation team will conduct an investigation and assessment of the disaster response process in accordance with laws and regulations, seeking truth from facts, scientifically rigorous, and comprehensively and objectively.” This also means that the subject of this investigation is the “disaster response process.”

According to sources, the investigation team will hire experts to provide technical support for the investigation. After the investigation, disaster response experience and lessons will be summarized, disaster prevention and mitigation improvement measures will be proposed, and dereliction of duty will be held accountable in accordance with laws and regulations.

The person in charge of the relevant department of the Emergency Management Department stated that the investigation team of the State Council has rules to follow and laws to follow.

The reporter learned that the “Emergency Response Law of the People’s Republic of China” specifies in detail the response measures that governments at all levels should take when responding to natural disasters, accidents and disasters.

In the resumption of the heavy rain disaster in Henan, this round of extreme weather in Henan started from July 17 to July 20. Heavy rains occurred in parts of Zhengzhou, Jiaozuo, Xinxiang, Luoyang, Xuchang, Pingdingshan and other places. The central and western parts of Zhengzhou Extremely heavy rain. The National Flood Control and Drought Relief Headquarters launched a third-level flood control emergency response at 20:00 on July 20. At 3 o’clock on July 21, the flood prevention level III emergency response was upgraded to level II.

The “Emergency Response Law” clearly stipulates what the relevant government should do after early warning of natural disasters and accident disasters of level 1, 2, 3, and 4 (corresponding to red, orange, yellow, and blue respectively).

According to regulations, after the first and second level warnings are issued and the early warning period is announced, local people’s governments at or above the county level shall take one or more measures from the eight measures to deal with disasters. It involves the transfer, evacuation or evacuation of persons vulnerable to emergencies and proper placement, transfer of important property; closing or restricting the use of places vulnerable to emergencies, and controlling or restricting activities in public places that are likely to lead to increased hazards Wait.

The measures taken by the relevant people’s government and its departments to respond to emergencies should be commensurate with the nature, extent, and scope of the social harm that the emergencies may cause; Measures to protect the rights and interests of citizens, legal persons and other organizations.

Some experts told reporters that during the “July 20” response process in Zhengzhou, Henan Province, did the relevant government take response measures that are compatible with the possible harm caused by the disaster; when selecting measures, whether to “protect the rights of citizens to the greatest extent” as the first priority? One option will become the investigation content of this investigation team.

Regarding to whom accountability and accountability are ultimately directed, from the findings of previous investigations published by the State Council’s investigation team, accountability is basically aimed at the units and personnel related to the cause and responsibility of the accident.

After the investigation team went to Xiangshui for investigation, two central management cadres and 46 provincial cadres and below in Jiangsu Province were seriously held accountable, involving the then Director of Jiangsu Emergency Department, Director of the Department of Ecology and Environment, Secretary of the Yancheng Municipal Committee, and Yancheng City.

  The establishment of the State Council investigation team to investigate natural disaster response is the first time since the establishment of the Emergency Management Department

Regarding the investigation and handling of the accident, the State Council has long established clear government regulations. The “Production Safety Accident Reporting, Investigation and Handling Regulations” clarify the procedures for reporting, investigating and handling production safety accidents that cause personal injury or death or direct economic losses in production and business activities.

Prior to this, the State Council had set up investigation teams on many occasions to investigate local production safety accidents. For example, in Jiangsu Xiangshui Tianjiayi Company’s “3.21” particularly serious explosion accident, 78 people were killed, 76 people were seriously injured, 640 people were hospitalized, and the direct economic loss was 1.986 billion yuan.

According to the “Production Safety Accident Reporting, Investigation and Handling Regulations,” accidents that cause more than 30 deaths or more than 100 serious injuries are classified as “extraordinarily serious accidents.” For particularly serious accidents, the State Council or relevant departments authorized by the State Council shall organize an accident investigation team to conduct investigations.

The State Council investigation team of the Xiangshui accident was headed by Huang Ming, then secretary of the Party Leadership Group and Deputy Minister of the Emergency Management Department (Huang Ming is currently the Secretary and Minister of the Party Committee of the Emergency Management Department).

In some accidents, the death toll did not reach 30, and the State Council also established an investigation team. In March 2020, in response to the collapse of the Xinjia Hotel in Quanzhou, Fujian, an investigation team of the State Council was established. This investigation should not have been formed by the State Council. It was an “upgrade investigation.”

Wang Chongxian, head of the investigation team management team of the State Council and first-level inspector of the Safety Production Comprehensive Coordination Department of the Emergency Management Department, explained in an interview with the media that 29 people were killed in the accident in Quanzhou. Generally speaking, the investigation was organized by the provincial government, but the accident occurred. The hotel is a centralized isolation observation point for outsiders for the prevention and control of the new crown pneumonia epidemic, which has caused major losses to the people’s lives and property, which is serious in nature and has a bad impact. According to regulations, the State Council approved the establishment of an accident investigation team of the State Council led by the Ministry of Emergency Management, with the Ministry of Public Security, the Ministry of Natural Resources, the Ministry of Housing and Urban-Rural Development, the National Health Commission, the All-China Federation of Trade Unions, and the Fujian Provincial People’s Government as member units to conduct an upgraded investigation.

In recent years, the State Council has also established an investigation team to investigate disasters. On December 20, 2015, a “landslide disaster” occurred in Guangming New District, Shenzhen. At that time, the State Council established the “12·20” Landslide Disaster Investigation Team in Guangming New District, Shenzhen. In this investigation, the State Council’s investigation team was led by the State Administration of Work Safety at the time. After investigation by the investigation team, it was determined that the landslide disaster was a slip of the muck fill of the receiving site, not a landslide, not a natural geological disaster, but a production safety accident.

The reporter combed and found that in response to natural disasters, an investigation team of the State Council was established to conduct investigations. This is the first time since the establishment of the Emergency Management Department in 2018.
