Chinese government officials are spending more time with their families thanks to an ongoing anti-graft campaign, said an official from the National Bureau of Statistics.

Officials spent an average of 30 minutes more at home every day in the last year than in 2012, Zhang Zhongliang, director of the bureau's finance department, said during a lecture last week at Communication University of China.

Bureau statistics showed that county-level officials had to attend an average of 18 social banquets every week in 2012, but that number dropped by at least one-third last year, Zhang said.
