The term supermarkets and shopping centers include: convenience stores, discount stores, supermarkets, large supermarkets, warehouse club stores, department stores, specialty store, shop, home building materials stores, and shopping centers.

A: The "measures" will be defined as plastic shopping bags by retail establishments provide for the container of goods purchased by consumers, with the guide and support functions of plastic bags.

This is with the National Standardization Committee on April 16, 2008 release of "plastic shopping bag" provision is the same.
Q: "measures" on the plastic bag provided is not paid the price offered to the public debate, as before, as there is a clear government pricing, this is for what consideration?
A: The "measures" under Article VI of the retail sites can be developed independently the price of plastic shopping bags. In this regard, the majority of enterprises proposed "measures" clearly the minimum limit, so as to avoid segregation caused to customers with different pricing bags. In this regard, we believe that, because plastic bags are not part of the "Price Act," the 18th article of the applicable government guidance or government pricing, the operator that should be implemented independently.
, Of course, price is too low to prevent the enterprise autonomy, making restrictions, reduce the use of plastic shopping bags defeat the purpose, we have under the "Price Act," Article VIII (the operator is based on the pricing of basic operating costs of production and market supply and demand conditions) stipulates that the principles of plastic shopping bags were limited to pricing, that is not less than operating costs.

Taking into account the form of a rental business fairs stalls, supermarkets and off the rent, counters, large supermarkets, shopping malls introduced plants into the retail store business stalls has a special place, "measures" provisions of such targeted sites start-up units or rental units responsibility.
Rental booth for operating the terminal market, we learn from the successful experience of some existing markets, in the "measures" to provide compensation to its method of implementation of plastic shopping bags provides separately, by the start-up units or its approval to establish a franchise in the market (or concurrently) plastic shopping bags plastic shopping bags operator's implementation of unified purchase and sales.

In the "measures" for public comment, there are consumers that do not pay the price to be set at a higher standard would not really stop the use of plastic bags; but not necessarily with the means to pay can not control white pollution. In this regard, we believe, provides compensation for the use of plastic shopping bags, is a means of raising public awareness of environmental protection one of its aims is to guide, encourage the rational use of plastic shopping bags, and promote comprehensive utilization of resources, protection of ecological environment. Compensation for the use of plastic shopping bags to people involved in the change shopping habits to cultivate the public "recycling" of plastic shopping bags are also really need the concept of a process; the same time, it should enact a comprehensive package of measures to effectively ensure that "contain 'white pollution' and protect the ecological environment "a reality.
