Research On Competition Assessment Of China's Public Policy

Increased levels of competition help to enhance the national economic vitality,increase business opportunities,to promote innovation,reduce the cost of goods and services,increase consumer welfare,thereby enhancing the social production efficiency.Constantly improve the modern market system is a guarantee of sufficient competition.However,The Third Plenary Session of the 18 th CPC Central Committee raised that China's market system is not perfect at present,the market openness,fairness of competition and operational transparency are to be improved.As the market supervision system is not unified,it is quite common to hinder the improvement of the unified market and fair competition by public policy.But based on the current system of anti-monopoly law,the regulation of public restrictions on competition has been unsatisfactory.In order to improve the fair competitive environment,build a unified national market,promote the market to fully compete,China has promulgated the proposal of establishing China's competition assessment.But the views are still more principles,operability is not strong,competition assessment's concept,purpose,role and the implementation process still need to understand and plan in China.Based on this,this article follows the idea of "finding problems-analyzing problems-solving problems" and studying on the Competition Assessment of Public Policy.First of all,through the study of the nature of public restrictions on competition,the form of expression,the weakening of competition and efficiency,it is proposed that the establish Competition Assessment of Public Policy is an effective way to regulate public restrictions on competition.Secondly,it analyzes the basic and the basis of the theory of industrial organization economics behind the competition assessment.Finally,through the split competition assessment,which starts from the preliminary assessment,the comprehensive assessment,the evaluation subject system and the assess object.On the basis of drawing on the international experience,this article puts forward the main content of the competition assessment,establish China's Competition Assessment of Public Policy completely.In addition to the introduction and conclusion,this paper mainly includes the following four parts:Part ?: The theoretical basis of establishing the Competition Assessment of Public Policy.As the public restrictions on competition has the dual nature of administration and economy,research shows that it will seriously weaken the competition,and continue to hinder economic development.Competition Assessment of Public Policy is an effective way to regulate public restrictions on competition.The theoretical basis of the Competition Assessment of Public Policy is the structure-conduct-performance model proposed by industrial organization economics,which has always been the mainstream framework of competitive analysis.The public policy factors as a variable to join the model,respectively,from the structure,conduct,performance recognition of public policy on the impact of competition laid the foundation.In addition,the competition assessment uses the cost-benefit analysis,the cost-effectiveness analysis,and the risk analysis as the methodology.Part ?: The establishment of preliminary assessment of public policy.The purpose of the preliminary assessment is to quickly identify anti-competitive public policies whose core is the list of competing impact checklists.The list of four parts of public policy to restrict the degree of competition to conduct a preliminary assessment,namely: whether to restrict the competitive incentives,whether to restrict the competitiveness of enterprises,whether to restrict the competitive conduct of the enterprise space and whether to limit the results of competition.Internationally,the United States and Japan have designed and used a competitive impact checklist.On the basis of drawing lessons from international experience,this article designs the competition impact checklist of our country's Competition Assessment of Public Policy from above four parts.Part ? : The establishment of a comprehensive assessment of public policy.A comprehensive assessment is intended to further confirm whether public policy restrictions on competition are necessary and appropriate.Procedural,comprehensive assessment generally has three key steps to examine whether there is a clear and specific reason for limiting competition,reviewing whether there is a causal link between competition restrictions and the above policy objectives,and whether the costs and benefits of competition restrictions are consistent the principle of proportionality.Comprehensive assessment of public policy by designing a series of question-and-answer for the stakeholders.Alternative policy options to complete a comprehensive Competition Assessment of Public Policy.Part ?: The establishment of assessment agency and the assessment object.For the subject of the assessment,there are three modes: the public policy-making department,the competition law enforcement agency and the specialized competition assessment institution.In view of China's long-term implementation of a diversified anti-monopoly law enforcement model,it is recommended to implement the "anti-monopoly committee-based,policy-making institutions,supplemented by" subject of assessment.But from a long time to consider,China should eventually refer to Australia to establish an independent and authoritative competitive assessment agency.For the assessment of the object,should be the law,administrative regulations,departmental regulations,normative documents and other policy measures.At the beginning of the assessment,however,the focus can be on the priority assessment of some of the major government-controlled public policies that seriously affect competition,thus contributing to the ultimate goal of achieving high quality control.Finally,from the financial incentives,the implementation of training,etc.,the implementation of the implementation of competition assessment incentive system to improve the competitiveness of participants in the assessment of the initiative.
