BEIJING - The State Council, China's cabinet, will abolish another 39 items of administrative approval to streamline the economy.
Another 14 items will be abolished after amendments to the law by the Standing Committee of China's National People's Congress, the country's top legislature.
Facing a complicated global landscape, 230 items of administrative approval have been canceled since March 2013 as part of a wider drive by the government to streamline administrative procedures and delegate power to lower levels.
The 53 items mainly involve business production, private employment and entrepreneurship.
