which is concerned with material statistics, value accounting, and balance sheets,
must be developed. The dynamic monitoring mechanism should be applied promptly
to understand the changes in natural resources. The integrated and authoritative
information disclosure and sharing mechanism for natural resources investigation,

shall be codified. The rights clarification and registration works for key eco-spaces,
including key rivers, shall be promoted and emphasized. The State Council’s natural
resources administrative department shall be registered as the representative exercising body of publicly owned natural resources assets. All the natural resources shall

resources. The natural resource assets classified pricing assessment and asset auditing
