[Does the revision of "China's Catalog of Export Prohibited and Restricted Technologies" fully consider industrial development? Ministry of Commerce's response] On October 16, the spokesperson of the Ministry of Commerce answered reporters' questions on the revision of the "China's Catalog of Export Prohibited and Restricted Technologies". Has the revision of the Catalog fully considered industrial development?
A: The Chinese government has always supported enterprises in carrying out mutually beneficial and win-win cross-border operations and international technical cooperation in accordance with laws and regulations. The relevant policy stance has not changed. Regarding the technical scope and policies of this public solicitation of opinions, the Ministry of Commerce and the Ministry of Science and Technology, together with industry authorities, have extensively organized research institutions and industry organizations to conduct in-depth assessments in advance, fully listened to the opinions and suggestions of major enterprises, and fully considered the current status and development needs of domestic and foreign industries. This is specifically reflected in three aspects: First, the scope of listing and management is precise and limited. Most of the technologies planned to be listed this time have specific technical indicators, and products manufactured using relevant technologies are not within the scope of management. The scope of management is clear, precise, and limited, which delineates compliance boundaries for enterprises and facilitates policy implementation. The second is to apply convenient measures. This listing clarifies the various export situations to which convenient measures are to be applied, embodies the management concept of classification and classification, helps to enhance the transparency and predictability of the policy, and ensures the safety, standardization and orderliness of technology exports. The third is to implement dynamic adjustments.
The Ministry of Commerce and the Ministry of Science and Technology will implement dynamic adjustments to the management scope of the "Catalog" in accordance with the law, and timely remove non-advanced or backward technologies from the "Catalog" based on technological development. This consultation is a work arrangement to listen to opinions and suggestions from all parties on a larger scale.
