There is no requirement, but due to the impact of the "Eight Regulations", the sales of high-end tea products have also decreased significantly in the past two years, and the customization market for high-end gift tea has been cold. Before the "Eight Provisions" were implemented, the item of receiving cigarettes and tea would occasionally appear in the unit's annual reimbursement accounts. As long as invoices were provided, it was not difficult to reimburse. After the implementation of the "Eight Provisions", the item of receiving cigarettes and tea has been cancelled. If you issue an invoice for buying cigarettes and tea, you will never be reimbursed.
The eight regulations strictly prohibit the use of public funds for New Year greeting activities such as mutual visits, gift-giving, and banquets. All localities and departments should vigorously streamline various tea parties and get-togethers, strictly control year-end evaluation and commendation activities, and do not conduct holiday condolences between units, and must not hold various holiday celebrations without approval. It is strictly forbidden to use public funds for gifts or banquets between superiors and subordinates, between departments, between units, and within units.
The requirements of the eight central regulations mainly target state agencies and their work.
The specific content of the regulations is as follows:
1. It is necessary to improve investigation and research, and avoid going through the motions and engaging in formalism; it is necessary to be simple, reduce accompanying, and simplify reception.
2. It is necessary to streamline meeting activities and effectively improve the meeting style; improve the effectiveness of meetings, hold short meetings, speak short words, and avoid empty words and clichés.
3. Documents and briefings must be streamlined and the writing style must be improved. Documents and briefings without substantive content that may or may not be issued shall not be issued.
4. It is necessary to standardize overseas visit activities, strictly control the number of persons accompanying overseas visits, and use transportation in strict accordance with regulations.
