我國財政部安排千億資金去產能

China's Ministry of Finance said last Wednesday it has earmarked a special fund of 100 billion yuan (15.33 billion U.S. dollars) to subsidize local governments and state-owned enterprises (SOEs) in reducing steel and coal overcapacity.

我國財政部上週三表示，已指撥1000億元（摺合153.3億美元）的專項資金用於獎補地方政府和國有企業化解鋼鐵、煤炭行業過剩產能。

The ministry said in a statement that 80 percent of the funds will be distributed to local governments and centrally administered SOEs based on their respective capacity reduction assignments, as well as the number of laid-off workers that must be resettled and the difficulty of doing so.

財政部在一份聲明中指出，80%的資金將根據地方政府和央企退出產能的任務量、須安置下崗職工人數及困難程度進行分配。

The remainder will be allocated based on how well local governments and SOEs fulfill their assignments, the statement said.

該聲明還表示，其餘資金將按照地方政府和國企任務的完成情況進行分配。

The ministry added that it will continue to implement preferential taxation policies, including tax refunds for steel exports and tax preferences for urban land use by coal miners.

財政部還補充道，將繼續實施優惠稅收政策，這其中就包括對鋼鐵出口退稅以及煤炭礦工對城市土地利用的稅收優惠。

To encourage the development and use of coal bed gas between 2016 and 2020, the central finance subsidy for coal bed gas will be raised from 0.2 yuan to 0.3 yuan per cubic meter, the statement said.

該聲明指出，爲鼓勵在2016年至2020年期間對煤層氣進行開發和利用，煤層氣的中央財政補貼標準從0.2元/立方米提高到0.3元/立方米
