Officials at the meeting also considered measures to promote the ice and snow sports industry's high-quality development, and deliberated and approved a draft revision to the national natural science fund regulation.

Stressing that efforts should be focused on achieving the annual economic growth target, officials at the meeting underlined the need to further implement incremental policies, conduct timely policy assessment and improvement and intensify counter-cyclical regulation to improve the effectiveness of macroeconomic control.
