On November 14, the State Council Executive Meeting was held. The meeting studied work related to deepening the implementation of “dual focus” construction, deployed measures to enhance the supply-demand compatibility of consumer goods and further promote consumption, listened to a report on implementing the spirit of the National Education Conference and accelerating the building of a strong education system, discussed the “Trademark Law of the People’s Republic of China (Revised Draft)”, and reviewed and approved the “Funeral and Interment Management Regulations (Revised Draft)”.
The meeting pointed out that the “dual focus” construction should be planned and advanced within the overall context of the 15th Five-Year Plan, firmly grasping strategic, forward-looking, and overarching requirements. Departmental coordination should be strengthened, with attention paid to the integration of software and hardware, to promote the in-depth implementation of major national strategies and the steady improvement of security capabilities in key areas. Project review should be optimized, with greater emphasis on the input of innovative factors and intangible asset investment, to foster the development of new quality productive forces. The project coordination and advancement mechanism should be improved, with strict management of project quality and safety, while simultaneously handling asset management and subsequent operation and maintenance. The pace of project construction and fund allocation should be reasonably arranged, the matching of projects and funds should be strengthened, and efforts should be made to actively leverage ultra-long-term loans, policy-based finance, and other funds, guiding more private capital participation to amplify the effects of “dual focus” construction.
The meeting pointed out that enhancing supply-demand compatibility is an effective measure to further unleash consumption potential and smooth economic circulation. Industrial upgrading should be led by consumption upgrading, and diverse demands should be better met with high-quality supply to achieve a higher-level dynamic balance between supply and demand. The innovative application of new technologies and models should be accelerated, the integration and enabling role of artificial intelligence should be strengthened, focusing on key industries and sectors to develop new products and value-added services, and continuously expanding new consumption increments. Enterprises should be actively supported in expanding the supply of distinctive, high-quality consumer goods. The updating and upgrading of safety, performance, and green standards should be accelerated, and the certification system should be improved. Demand from different population groups should be precisely matched around segmented markets, developing a number of flexible manufacturing factories to promote efficient production responses to personalized consumer needs. New consumption scenarios and business formats should be cultivated, consumption finance products and services should be enriched, and a favorable consumption environment should be fostered.
The meeting pointed out that over the past year, various regions and departments have earnestly implemented the spirit of the National Education Conference, effectively advancing the implementation of various tasks, and solid steps have been taken in building a strong education system. Efforts should continue with perseverance, establishing and improving a coordination mechanism for the integrated advancement of education, science and technology, and talent. Centering on the needs of technological innovation, industrial development, and national strategy, more innovative talents urgently needed by the country should be cultivated. Efforts should focus on resolving prominent issues of public concern in the education sector, adapting to changes in the school-age population, coordinating the promotion of equity, improvement of quality, and optimization of layout, and continuously increasing the supply of high-quality educational resources.
The meeting discussed and approved in principle the “Trademark Law of the People’s Republic of China (Revised Draft)”, deciding to submit the draft to the Standing Committee of the National People’s Congress for deliberation. The meeting pointed out that trademark management and protection should be strengthened according to law, fully leveraging the role of trademarks in promoting economic and social development.
