Cash for capacity cuts

CHINA will pay 100 billion yuan (US$15.3 billion) in subsidies to steel and coal companies that reduce capacity, the Ministry of Finance said yesterday.

The funds will mainly be used to resettle laid-off workers, the statement said. The government will also take a “combination of measures” to resolve overcapacity, including tax, land, fiscal and financial reform, it said.
