BEIJING, Aug. 23 (Xinhua) — Chinese government agencies on Saturday began soliciting public opinions on a draft regulation regulating pricing practices of internet platforms, aiming to promote the healthy development of the sector.
The draft, jointly released by the National Development and Reform Commission (NDRC), the State Administration for Market Regulation and the State Internet Information Office, aims to encourage platform economy operators to set prices themselves in accordance with the law, standardize price labeling requirements and their behavior in price competition.
This step is aimed at creating a transparent and predictable mechanism for regulating pricing in this sector, a representative of the State Committee for Reconstruction and Development said.
According to the draft, platform economy operators are required to clearly indicate prices or charging standards for goods and services on their websites and related channels. The document also emphasizes that no fees should be charged beyond the stated prices.
The draft regulation is drafted in accordance with China's current laws and regulations and is expected to contribute to maintaining a fair market environment and protecting the legitimate rights and interests of both platform economy operators and consumers, the spokesperson said.
According to the State Committee for Reconstruction and Development, public opinion is being collected over the course of one month. -0-
