Chinese Premier Li Qiang on Sunday stressed that efforts must be made to implement the policies and arrangements of the central authorities in order to achieve the economic and social development goals for this year.
Li made the remarks when presiding over a State Council executive meeting, which made arrangements for the implementation of a raft of incremental policies devised at a recent meeting of the Political Bureau of the Communist Party of China Central Committee.
The meeting said that action should be taken to effectively implement macro regulation, foster synergy between various policies, and tackle prominent problems in economic operations.
It urged accelerated action to implement these policies and underlined the need to mull new policies promptly in response to changing circumstances.
The meeting was arranged to accelerate the implementation of 102 key projects listed in the country’s 14th Five-Year Plan (2021-2025).
It also discussed work to promote the construction of an inclusive child care services system and heard a report on progress in strengthening China’s intellectual property rights.
Draft revisions to the law on science and technology popularization and the law against unfair competition were discussed and approved in principle at the meeting and will be submitted to the Standing Committee of the National People’s Congress for deliberation.
