China to strengthen quality control on armament

China will reinforce control and supervision over the quality of weapons and military equipment, according to a new regulation published Friday.

Premier Wen Jiabao and Chairman of the Central Military Commission Hu Jintao signed a decree to publish the new regulation.

The regulation also governs the quality controls on raw materials, computer software and accessories used in armaments.

The regulation asks organizations in charge of the evaluation, research, production, trial and maintenance of armaments to establish and strengthen effective quality control systems to ensure all armaments meet standards.

Armaments producing organizations should keep accurate and complete records on product quality, the regulation says.

Advanced technology and management methods to boost quality are encouraged, and organizations and individuals who make outstanding contributions in such work will be granted honor and awards, the regulation says.

The new regulation, which will take effect from Nov. 1, replaces the previous regulation adopted in 1987.
