CHINA has taken stricter measures to make sure that the ongoing selection of national science and technology award recipients is conducted in a "clean and fair" way.
Zou Dating, director of the National Office for Science and Technology Awards, said yesterday that one of the office's priorities is to prevent the names of the judges on the national award evaluation board from leaking.
This year, judges will hand in their cell phones for safekeeping during the evaluation process, and cell phone signals will be blocked in the judges' meeting rooms.
Judges will also be required to report to duty within five days of being summoned. Previous regulations required them to report within 10 days. Judges will also be required to register with a "code name" instead of their real name when they report for duty. Judges and other members of the award selection committee will use these code names to evaluate each others' performances.
Zou said that these methods prevent prospective candidates from finding out who the judges are.
