BEIJING has no plans to impose vehicle emission fees in 2009, Du Shaozhong, deputy-director of the city's environmental protection bureau said yesterday.
Du made the announcement in response to rumors from local media about possible fees on vehicle emissions.
He said the Ministry of Environmental Protection had been levying fees for the discharge of water, air and noise pollution, but it had yet to issue a policy on vehicle emissions.
The Beijing Times ran a story on Saturday stating Beijing would soon start levying vehicle discharge fees.
"We usually follow the state policies on pollutant discharge fees," said Du. "Beijing had suggested tightening the management on vehicle tail gas after the Beijing Olympics. But relevant state departments are still doing research on the policy."
"We should approach all forms of fee collection with care because the government has been trying to abolish redundant fees which burden the people," a commentary in the Beijing Youth Daily newspaper said yesterday.
