National Development and Reform Commission (NDRC) (国家发展和改革委员会)
A central government commission sitting under the
State Council
.
The NDRC's functions include:
Formulating and implementing strategies of national economic and social development, annual plans, medium and long-term development plans.
Monitoring macroeconomic and social development trends.
Co-ordinating and addressing major issues in economic operations.
Regulating investment projects of fixed assets in China.
(See NDRC
website
.)
China carried out a massive government institutional reform in 2018, which made the NDRC significantly weaker than it used to be. For example,
The power to oversee price-related anti-competitive conduct has been passed to the
State Administration for Market Regulation
(SAMR) (see
Practice note, Understanding the 2018 government institutional reform: China: Single anti-trust regulator
).
The power to manage the pricing of medicines and healthcare services has been passed to the State Medical Insurance Administration (SMIA) (国家医疗保障局) (see

).
