State Councilor Yang Jing said on Monday that the current State Council nationwide inspection should focus on maintaining steady economic development and advancing supply-side structural reform.
Priorities of the nationwide inspection should also include the implementation of innovation-driven development and polices to improve people's well-being, said Yang, who chaired a meeting on the inspection.
The nationwide inspection should be in-depth, efficient and effective to ensure completion of major economic and social development tasks this year, he said.
Yang said that the inspection will target 31 provinces, municipalities and autonomous regions, the Xinjiang Production and Construction Corps and 30 departments under the State Council.
The State Council recently began an inspection, the third of its kind since 2014, of prominent problems in government performance and economic development.
