It was reported that during this year’s Two Sessions, NPC deputy Liu Changhai, Chairman of Camel Group, proposed expanding the scope of application of the Regulation on Ensuring Payment to Small and Medium-Sized Enterprises from small and medium-sized suppliers in the supply chains of large enterprises (mainly 17 key automakers) to above-designated-size enterprises in the automotive industry, thereby creating a “hard constraint on payment terms across the entire industry.” He also proposed clearly defining “completion of goods delivery and acceptance” as the period start point, and strictly prohibiting the disguised extension of payment terms through measures such as deliberately delaying acceptance and the non-compliant use of commercial bills of exchange.
