The Supervision Board of the State-owned Assets Supervision and
Administration Commission (SASAC) should press central
government-funded companies to deepen reforms, regularize
management, and prevent risks to ensure that the value of these
state properties be increased.
State Council in a meeting on Wednesday urged the SASAC
Supervision Board to further improve its supervisory duties and
work methods and continue increasing its authority and efficiency.
It called for attaching great importance to state-owned companies'
reforms and supervisory work.
Premier Wen Jiabao presided over the meeting, which also
approved, in principle, the draft of the Regulations on Scenic
Sites and Places of Interest.
It is necessary to amend the Provisional Regulations on the
Management of Scenic Sites and Places of Interest, which was issued
by the State Council in 1985, and newly formulated Regulations on
Scenic Sites and Places of Interest, according to the meeting.
The draft regulations will be further revised and then enforced
by the State Council.
