CIRCULAR OF THE STATE COUNCIL CONCERNING THE QUARANTINE CONTROL SYSTEM FOR ANIMAL PRODUCTS LEAVING CHINA FOR TRADE PURPOSE

    The "Law of the People's Republic of China on the Entry and Exit Animal
and Plant Quarantine" has already adopted at the 22nd Meeting of the Standing
Committee of the Seventh National People's Congress, and shall enter into
force as of April 1, 1992. Article 3 of the Law stipulates: "The organ in
charge of the quarantine of animal products leaving China for trade purpose
shall be designated by the State Council as it deems appropriate." The State
Council maintains that, from a long-term point of view, it is more appropriate
for the agricultural department to exercise a unified administration over the
quarantine of animal products leaving China for trade purpose, but this cannot
do without a process. The State Council has, therefore, decided that the
quarantine work of animal products leaving China for trade purpose shall
continue to be undertaken by the State's department of commodity inspection.
