北京拟禁止公款购烟草制品 IPO申报窗口并未关闭

Beijing has released a draft regulation that would ban public funds in the purchase of tobacco and smoking sets in the latest move to control smoking, according to the municipal legal affairs office.

The draft regulation on smoking control also prohibits providing or presenting tobacco products as gifts in any official or public activities.

It also bans vending machines from selling tobacco.

Smoking promotions or advertising are also prohibited, according to the draft regulation, which is soliciting public opinion.

It is not yet known when the regulation will be put into effect.

China's securities regulator has denied rumors that the country's initial public offering (IPO) market has been shut down.

The clarification came after the China Securities Regulatory Commission in late March suggested companies planning an IPO should "choose a reasonable timing" for IPO application.

The commission urged the companies to go to the New Third Board, a national share transfer system for small and medium-sized enterprises to transfer shares and raise funds, or seek IPOs overseas.
