Recently, in order to implement the guiding principles of the National Special Action Deployment Meeting and Promotion Meeting to combat and rectify pension fraud, crack down on the crimes of pension fraud in accordance with the law, and promote the effective and orderly development of the Special Action in accordance with the law, the Shanghai Intellectual Property Court (the ¡°Court¡±) formulated the Special Action Plan to Combat and Rectify Pension Fraud, which mainly covers the following aspects: (1) Elevating political stance to fully understand the significance of the Special Action. It is necessary to reach a consensus ideologically, implement the overall requirements, strictly follow the arrangements of the Supreme People's Court of the People's Republic of China and the Shanghai High People¡¯s Court (SHPC), and develop a greater sense of responsibility and urgency in carrying out the Special Action. (2) Strengthening organizational leadership to steadily promote the development of the Special Action. A Special Action Office has been set up, with Xie Wenbo, Member of the Party Leadership Group and Vice President of the Court, as the Director of the Office. A task force made up by elite forces has also been set up to work on the three key parts: publicity and launch, crackdown and rectification, and summary and improvement, to strengthen coordination and cooperation with investigative and procuratorial organs, and to enhance communication and coordination between the courts at higher and lower levels and clarify responsibilities of each party concerned. (3) Imposing heavier punishments to accurately crack down on pension fraud. In view of the characteristics of jurisdiction of specialized cases, a focus will be put on crackdown on criminal and illegal activities concerning railways, intellectual property, food and medicine, environmental protection, smuggling, bankruptcy, etc. and addressing of the problems derived from the activities, in addition, crimes of pension fraud and the corruption behind them will be strictly punished according to law in the context of regular crackdown on gang crimes. (4) Increasing the intensity of implementation to guarantee the effectiveness of the Special Action. A property enforcement consultation mechanism and a regular meeting system will be established to strengthen the connection between case filing, trial, and enforcement, study and address the difficulties and problems in enforcement, and improve the effectiveness of recovering spoils and losses. (5) Enhancing the measures adopted to do a better job related to trial. Efforts should be made to discover and verify the clues and promote publicity on the rule of law, help the elderly improve their awareness of the rule of law and their ability to recognize and avoid fraud, and establish a sound long-term mechanism for preventing fraud among the elderly.

 

In the next step, the Court will, under the strong leadership of its Party Leadership Group and under the guidance of the Special Action Office of SHPC, carry out the Special Action to crack down on pension fraud, so as to safeguard the legitimate rights and interests of the elderly.
