Justice Minister Wu Aiying recently emphasized the need to increase educational and reformatory efforts and improve safety conditions in China's reeducation through labor system. Speaking at the National Reeducation Through Labor Work Meeting, Wu said the recidivism rate among released internees should be the primary standard by which to judge the system's success. There is to be added focus on moral, patriotic and legal education, as well as vocational training and mental health. He also stressed the need for more professional and political training for correctional officers.
