Recently, some urban real estate management departments reported that since the issuance of the Notice of the General Office of the State Council on Adjusting the Real Estate Management Right of State-owned Grain and Oil Branches in Cities [Guo Ban Fa (1995) No.47], some urban commercial, supply and marketing, cultural and other departments requested that the public houses directly managed by the real estate management departments be transferred to them free of charge. I hope that our department will reiterate the relevant state regulations and make it clear.
Since the founding of the People's Republic of China, state-owned public houses have been managed by real estate management departments, and the ownership issue is clear. At the same time, the State Council, the Ministry of Construction and the Ministry of Finance all have clear regulations. The Letter of the General Office of the State Council on the Construction of Urban Commercial Networks [Guo Ban Han (1993) No.33] stipulates that "houses owned by the state in urban commercial networks shall not be allocated to users free of charge". The Ministry of Construction has repeatedly issued notices prohibiting the allocation of non-residential houses managed by real estate management departments to users. As early as 1987, the Ministry of Finance made a decision to stop the free transfer of fixed assets between units; The provisions of the implementation of paid allocation. These regulations are still valid and must be observed. Therefore, property rights belong to state-owned public houses and must be managed by the real estate management department of the local people's government, and shall not be allocated to any users free of charge.
Notice No.47 issued by the State Council (1995) is limited to the transfer of real estate of state-owned grain and oil shops in cities and towns, and is not applicable to the transfer of other directly-managed public houses. No unit or department may, on this ground, require other public houses of the real estate management department to be distributed to users free of charge.
Local real estate management departments should further strengthen the management of directly managed public houses, and at the same time actively explore such aspects as deepening reform, changing operating mechanism and revitalizing existing real estate, so as to preserve and increase the value of directly managed public houses and better serve economic construction and people's living and life.
