China scraps quotas to meet WTO ruling
响应世贸组织裁决 中国2015年起取消稀土出口管制
China has scrapped a quota system that was intended to restrict rare earth exports.
中国的稀土出口已经不再受限于出口配额制度。
The move involves 17 metals used in high tech sectors, it's aimed at complying with a World Trade Organization ruling released last year.
这一举措涉及17种用于高科技行业的金属，旨在响应去年世贸组织公布的一项决定。
The Ministry of Commerce issued a notice at the end of December that abolished export quotas for rare earths.
中国商务部于12月底商务部发出通告称稀土出口不再受限于出口配额制度。
That came after the WTO decreed last August that China's administration of rare earths was inconsistent with the trade organization's regulations.
而此前世界贸易组织裁定中国的稀土出口配额制度不符合贸易规则。
It was expected that China would also drop the tariffs on rare earths, but China has not made such changes.
中国或许也会降低稀土关税，但目前尚未有相关规定出台。
