BEIJING (Reuters) – China should set its 2024 fiscal deficit and special local government bonds at appropriate levels and optimise the structure of fiscal expenditure, a senior Communist Party official said on Wednesday, state media CCTV reported.
China should also keep consumer prices at a moderate and appropriate level, neither too low or too high, said Han Wenxiu, deputy head of the Party’s office for financial and economic affairs, according to CCTV.
