There is still room for these policies and measures to release their effects. If the job is done right now, it will have more effects on stabilizing growth next year. We need to seize the time window and pay close attention to policy implementation.

In the near future, the relevant departments will once again supervise local governments to implement a package of policies and measures to stabilize the economy, take responsibility for stabilizing growth, promote the reform of “decentralization, regulation and service”, and coordinate to solve problems .
The meeting said that as the New Year and Spring Festival approaches, we must continue to do a good job of ensuring the supply and price of living products. Solve the “last mile” problem of logistics in some places as soon as possible. Consolidate the “bag of rice” governor’s accountability system and the “vegetable basket” mayor’s accountability system to ensure sufficient supply of daily necessities and stable prices during the Double Festival. Effectively ensure the needs of the masses of materials and medicines for epidemic prevention, strengthen international cooperation, and reasonably import urgently needed goods.
