GOVERNMENT websites in China will be shut down if they fail to respond to public concerns or update information, says a circular issued by China's State Council.

The websites are required to provide up-to-date and accurate information, especially on sectors such as government budgets, public resources allocation and major construction projects, according to the circular, which has been posted on the central government website (www.gov.cn).

The move is believed to be aimed at improving the credibility of government websites, many of which have been accused of lacking adequate information, offering delayed updates and constantly having hyperlink errors.

Officials are also encouraged to log onto local government websites or accept online interviews, according to the circular.
