On the 10th, the Ministry of Ecology and Environment publicly solicited opinions on the Notice on Standards and Conditions for Enterprises to Declare Special Funds for the Disposal of Waste Electrical and Electronic Products (Draft for Comment). It is proposed that the declaration conditions should be determined according to the following principles: First, fair competition. Do not distinguish between enterprises subsidized by the original waste electrical equipment treatment fund and enterprises newly entering the market, and unify the reporting conditions. The second is to reward the excellent and help the strong. In order to ensure that the financial incentive policy is inclined to large-scale and high-quality enterprises, and at the same time, considering the development differences between regions, we have set the minimum quantity requirements. The number of processing enterprises located in the western region is 900,000 units (sets), and the number of processing enterprises located in other regions is 1 million units (sets). The third is a smooth transition. As 2024 is a policy transition year, the processing quantity in 2024 is the main factor in the allocation of special funds in 2025. Considering the market affordability and the adjustment period of production and operation of enterprises, a transition period is set aside for the setting of the number requirements for special funds in 2025, and it is planned to set the number requirements to 500,000 units (sets) per year.Navigation warning Military training was conducted in some sea areas of the South China Sea, and the Qinglian Maritime Safety Administration issued a navigation warning.
