Measures to foster recovery coming

NDRC: Law to promote private sector, revised negative list will boost biz mood

China will implement several measures to foster a robust economic recovery throughout this year, the country's top economic regulator said on Thursday.

The planned measures will include acceleration of the legislative process to enact a law on promoting the development of the private sector and revision to the negative list for foreign investment access.

"The country is gearing up to take a series of practical measures to boost growth of the private sector," said Yuan Da, deputy secretary-general of the National Development and Reform Commission, at a news conference in Beijing.
