In the "Measures (Draft)" issued earlier, it was stipulated that "shopping sites for goods should be clearly coded according to the law", and offenders may be fined less than RMB 5,000 depending on the circumstances. In the “Measures” released yesterday, the penalties were further refined.

"Prices such as discounts and other methods of not selling plastic shopping bags to consumers at the indicated prices" will be punished by fines of up to RMB 5,000.

In response to the concerns of unfair price competition and price reduction among merchants, the "Measures" specify the amount of fines for unfair competition when selling plastic shopping bags at retail stores. Where a business has unfair competition, the administrative department for industry and commerce may impose a fine of up to 10,000 yuan depending on the circumstances.

In terms of the use of plastic shopping bags, the "Measures" pointed out that retail pre-packaged plastic bags used to hold fresh foods, cooked foods, pasta, and other goods are not covered within the scope of fees for retail and food safety purposes. However, the head of a foreign supermarket is still in doubt. “The main food kitchen in the store is a small plastic bag that can be used to hold food. It is the same as the small plastic shopping bag that is currently provided free of charge. I do not know how to define this part of the plastic bag. Will it require a fee?"

Previously, businesses have been calling for the government to issue guidelines or minimum prices, which are not mentioned in the Measures. “Since the plastic shopping bag is sold as a commodity, the price should be determined by the market.” said Jingsheng Gao, deputy general manager of Jingke Long. According to the person in charge of Lotus at Lichu Lotus, “As long as the merchant does not violate the use of paid products and not less than the cost of sales, it can meet the requirements of the relevant regulations.”
