Regarding the issue of subsidies for living expenses of volunteers, the National Project Office has been working on it since everyone has not reported on August 20th.

Living expenses subsidy The living expenses in September and the first transportation subsidy were distributed to the volunteers. However, for some reasons, the process of this work has been affected. The main reasons are as follows: 1. To apply for a volunteer card, an accurate volunteer name and ID card number are required, but in the initial list reported to the National Project Office, many names and ID card numbers were incorrect. The main reason is that the name of the volunteer newspaper is not attached to the ID card. When filling in the ID card number, they fill in or omit it. After preliminary verification, the proportion is about 10%. Because it is handled uniformly across the country, in order to ensure that volunteers can use the volunteer card normally, the National Project Office has to repeatedly adjust the card issuance time. In addition, after the volunteers reported, a considerable part of the re-checked ID number was wrong. However, considering the actual needs of most students, the card will be issued to everyone first, but it is inevitable that some of these errors will cause some problems when using certain functions of the card in the future. Please understand. Moreover, due to the problem of the ID card number, some students will have some problems when applying for insurance. However, the National Project Office has already done a good job of remedying some students in case of danger. 2. Some volunteers withdrew from volunteer service because of no reason or illness, and took away the volunteer card. To ensure fairness, PMOs around the country have been paying attention to the changing situation of personnel. The change of the list also affected the payment process of living expenses. However, the National Project Office still believed that most of the volunteers were good, so they asked all places to submit the list last week. After the lists of various places were reported, the comrades of the project office used Saturday and Sunday to work overtime to check the living allowances and transportation allowances of all volunteers, and to transfer the living allowances and transportation allowances through the Agricultural Bank of China in accordance with the procedures. To each volunteer card. It is expected that the card should be available this week, and some places may be late for technical reasons. However, in the future, the living allowance will be issued to the volunteer card in time.

A few days ago, the central government allocated the central subsidy for basic living expenses for orphans in 2011, and the subsidy standards for the eastern, central, and western regions were increased from 180 yuan, 270 yuan, and 360 yuan per person per month in 2010 to 200 yuan, 300 yuan, 400 yuan, an increase of more than 10%. The total subsidy fund is 2.5 billion yuan, and a total of 655,000 orphans benefit from it.

In 2010, the State Council issued the "Opinions on Strengthening the Protection of Orphans" (Guobanfa [2010] No. 54) document, which requires the establishment of an orphan protection system nationwide, covering basic living, medical care, education, employment, housing, etc. Guaranteed orphans years ago. Among them, the establishment of basic living security is the core of the Opinions. The State Council requires that the governments of provinces, autonomous regions, and municipalities directly under the Central Government should determine the minimum standard of raising basic living standards for orphans in accordance with the principle of not lower than the local average living standard, and provide basic living expenses to all orphans. In order to help the locals pay for the basic living expenses of orphans, the Ministry of Civil Affairs and the Ministry of Finance jointly issued the "Notice on the Payment of Basic Living Expenses for Orphans" (Minfa [2011] No. 161), and the central government allocated funds for the 2010 Local subsidies for orphans' basic living allowances are provided. The standard is 180 yuan per person per month in the eastern region, 270 yuan per person per month in the central region, and 360 yuan per person per month in the western region.

With the requirements of the State Council and the support of the central government, orphans' security work in various places, especially the payment of basic living expenses for orphans, has begun rapidly. As of now, 27 provinces across the country have established local minimum orphan parenting standards. Basically, orphans raised in child welfare institutions are no less than 1,000 yuan per person per month. They are scattered outside the institution and live with relatives such as grandparents. Orphans are not less than 600 yuan per month per person. Among them, the highest provincial standard is Beijing, and the two standards reach 1,600 yuan and 1,400 yuan, respectively. Except for the subsidies provided by the central government, the funds will be borne by local governments at all levels. The formulation of these standards means that orphans in China can receive at least 7,200 yuan in cash allowances from the government each year, while in Beijing, an orphan living in a child welfare home can receive an annual allowance of 19,200 yuan.

The State Council's "Opinions on Strengthening the Protection of Orphans" also called for "establishing a natural growth mechanism for the minimum standard of raising orphans' basic living standards." In order to promote local implementation of this work requirement, the central government raised the standard of subsidies to local governments when they allocated funds for basic living expenses for orphans in 2011. The amount of subsidies reached 200 yuan per person per month in eastern regions and 300 yuan per person per month in central regions RMB, 400 yuan per person per month in the western region, and the bid increase rate exceeded 10%.

According to Xu Jianzhong, Deputy Director of the Department of Social Welfare and Philanthropy Promotion of the Ministry of Civil Affairs, in the first half of 2011, the Ministry of Civil Affairs and the Ministry of Finance carried out a serious discussion on the bid promotion work. Revenue growth and CPI growth. On the basis of raising the subsidy standard by the central government, some localities have also carried out corresponding work in accordance with local economic and social development. For example, the Shaanxi Provincial People's Government recently raised the minimum raising standard for scattered orphans in the province from 600 yuan per person per month in 2010 to 800 yuan per person per month in 2011.

Xu Jianzhong also introduced that in the process of paying the basic living expenses of orphans in 2010, a new round of statistics on the number of orphans was carried out in various places. By the end of 2010, there were 655,000 orphans who lost their parents and could not find their parents, a decrease of 57,000 from the 712,000 counted in 2008.

It is reported that, because most of the children living in child welfare institutions in China suffer from disability, and their medical and rehabilitation needs are relatively high, the orphan raising standards of institutions are often higher than those of scattered orphans. ^[1]
