The State Administration for Market Regulation hits hard, inspection and testing report market order continues to improve

Our reporter Yang Xiaojing

Quality and safety are the life of products, and inspection and testing reports are the "physical verification" of product quality, the "safety certificate" of consumer behavior, and the "letter of credit" of the market economy

In order to standardize the inspection and testing market, in recent years, the State Administration for Market Regulation has firmly established the concept of "big market, big quality, and big supervision", and has taken a series of measures in five aspects: system construction, joint supervision, platform investigation, joint punishment, and innovative supervision.

Comprehensively strengthen governance

According to reports, recently, the State Administration for Market Regulation has centrally formulated and issued the Measures for the Supervision and Administration of Inspection and Testing Institutions, the Measures for the Administration of the Qualification Accreditation of Inspection and Testing Institutions, the Opinions of the State Administration for Market Regulation on Further Strengthening the Management of National Quality Inspection Centers, and the State Administration for Market Regulation on Further deepen the reform and promote the inspection and testing industry to become better and stronger, and five departmental regulations and normative documents, including the "Guiding Opinions on the Improvement and Strengthening of the Inspection and Testing Industry" and "Measures for the Supervision and Administration of Accreditation Institutions", further improve the inspection and testing industry access, interim and post-event supervision, and industry exit mechanisms, etc.

Strengthen online supervision

Organize local market supervision departments to publish the results of inspection and testing institutions' supervision and spot checks and administrative punishment results in accordance with the law, and lawfully include illegal institutions that issue false inspection and testing reports on the list of seriously illegal and untrustworthy enterprises, and publicize them through the national enterprise credit information publicity system

Entrusted professional institutions to carry out unannounced and unannounced visits, and conducted inspections on more than 3,000 inspection and testing institutions and online merchants

"After continuous rectification, the order of the inspection and testing market has improved, and the business environment of the inspection and testing industry has been further optimized and improved

"But the problem of non-standard inspection and testing market order still exists

In this regard, the market supervision department has continuously strengthened inspection and testing supervision, continued to maintain a high-pressure supervision situation on the chaos of the inspection and testing market, maintained a "zero tolerance" attitude towards fraudulent inspection and testing reports, and strictly punished all kinds of violations of laws and regulations in accordance with the law.

The State Administration for Market Regulation has selected 17 typical cases involving fraudulent inspection and testing reports from the inspection and testing violation cases that have been investigated and dealt with by market supervision departments at all levels in 2021 for centralized exposure

Falsification must be severely punished

Regarding the supervision of fraudulent inspection and testing reports, according to Qiao Dong, according to the cases investigated by local market supervision departments and the clues of complaints and reports, the fraudulent behavior of inspection and testing reports can be subdivided into three types: the first is issued by the market supervision department.

Qiao Dong pointed out that for different fraudulent subjects, the regulatory authorities and supervision methods are not the same

　　The second is to continue to strengthen the cross-departmental joint supervision of the inspection and testing market for inspection and testing institutions that should be supervised by the judicial, housing and urban-rural construction, transportation, agriculture and rural areas, health, emergency, meteorology and other related industries according to law, and strengthen joint punishment for dishonesty

　　The third is the fraudulent behavior of inspection and testing reports of unqualified enterprises, intermediaries, individual industrial and commercial households and individuals.

　　At the same time, the penalties for fraudulent inspection and testing reports will be increased

　　It is understood that at present, the State Administration for Market Regulation has established the "Qualification Accreditation and Certification Institution Capability Inquiry System", and the public can inquire about the relevant institution's certificate number, registered address, capability scope and other information by entering the name of the inspection and testing institution.

　　While disrupting the normal business order, the fraudulent inspection and testing report may cause product quality problems and cause great hidden risks to consumers' life, health and property safety

To this end, the State Administration for Market Regulation will continue to carry out special rectification actions for the inspection and testing market from April to the end of July 2022.
Inspection and testing institutions in six areas including tank body and carbon emission verification were rectified
.
At the same time, it will also strengthen cross-departmental joint supervision, and cooperate with public security, natural resources, ecological environment, water conservancy, customs, drug administration and other departments to deploy and carry out annual "double random, one public" inspection and testing institutions to supervise and spot checks, and create good market access.
