Original title: Several new regulations for cold chain food traceability with scan code to take effect in November
Several new regulations went into effect on November 1. Among them, the recently revised “Administrative Measures for Elder Care Institutions” stipulate that the records management of the elderly care institutions will be implemented and the specific content of records management will be clearly defined. In addition, new regulations will also be officially implemented this month, such as the cancellation of the “Returned Foreign Student Certificate” and the relaxation of the age for applying for a small car driver’s license. These new regulations will undoubtedly affect people’s clothing, food, housing, and transportation.
“Administrative Measures for Elderly Care Institutions” comprehensively reviewed for the first time
Since its implementation in 2013, the “Administrative Measures for Elderly Care Institutions” marked the beginning of the first comprehensive review, which was officially implemented on November 1. The Measures clarify that elderly care institutions should provide convenience for elderly family members to visit or greet the elderly, and provide assistance for the elderly to communicate with family members. Elderly care institutions are required to be on duty 24 hours a day, install video surveillance facilities in public places such as entrances and exits, reception hallways, service rooms, corridors, dining rooms, etc., and maintain video surveillance records adequately to ensure the safety of the elderly. Regarding the provisions on the cancellation of the license for the establishment of institutions for the care of the elderly in the “Law on the protection of the rights and interests of the elderly” revised in 2018, the most important change in the Recently revised “Administrative measures for institutions for the care of the elderly” lies in the application of file management of institutions for the care of the elderly. Newly established nursing homes must submit a request to the civil affairs department within 10 business days of accepting the elders. The submission request must include basic information about the nursing home, the ownership of the place of service, and the number of nursing home beds.

Li Xiaozhuang, Research Associate at the Institute of Sociology, Beijing Academy of Social Sciences:
Compared to the previous set permissions, the file system has simpler procedures. Through similar “decentralization, management and service” measures to optimize the business green environment for elderly care, the ultimate goal is to promote the socialization of elderly and elderly care institutions. This is also to meet the needs of older people in an aging society and to make use of social or market resources to compensate for the lack of government pension resources. In order to ensure the healthy development of the elderly care institutions, the supervision of the elderly care institutions will be strengthened in the follow-up to ensure that the ecology of the elderly care institutions can also have high-quality development and provide quality services for the elderly.
Scans Beijing Cold Chain Food Code Traceability
As of November 1, Beijing imported cold chain food production and operation units must truthfully upload traceability data, such as imported chilled and frozen meat, sources of aquatic products and addresses of flow into the “Beijing Cold Chain Food Traceability Platform”, and implement electronic traceability codes. Code, paste the code. Consumers can use WeChat or Alipay to scan the electronic traceability code on the product packaging or sales container to easily check the origin of imported frozen meat and aquatic products.

Tang Junjie, Chief Engineer of Beijing Ershang Group Co., Ltd .:
In the context of the normalization of the epidemic, scanning the QR code of imported food from the cold chain is a measure to increase consumer confidence, and this confidence should be secure. Based on the current situation, I believe that this traceability platform is still necessary for consumers to know the safety of purchased cold chain foods. In fact, this platform seems to be scanning code, but the front-end needs to be tested and the workload is still very large. This method can also be promoted in other cities in the future, and some steps can be taken to remove consumer doubts.

In order to simplify return procedures for foreign students to make work and life easier for the majority of returned foreign students, on September 17 the Ministry of Education announced the cancellation of the “Certificate of returned foreign students” as of November 1, 2020.

Xiong Bingqi, Dean of the 21st Century Educational Research Institute:
In fact, there are many materials that can prove the identity of international students, including admission materials from foreign universities or scientific research institutions, degree certificates or graduation certificates issued by foreign institutions, etc. As long as these materials are carefully checked by the relevant units, there is no need to request to test. “For foreign students, the education department must do a good job in two respects. One is to strengthen the dissemination of information about studying abroad, guide them to that they choose legal and qualified schools and educational institutions, so that foreign students can receive a genuine education abroad; The second is to create an environment of fair labor competition and use a fair employment environment where people make the best use of their talents and attract foreign students to return to China for employment, entrepreneurship and professional development.

Xiao Xu, Professor at the Faculty of Business Administration, Capital University of Economics and Business:
The current number of seniors is increasing year by year, and the relaxation of the driving age limit is obviously to better suit the travel needs of an aging society. Car driving has higher requirements for driver responsiveness and judgment. In the reform opinions proposed by the Directorate of Traffic Management of the Ministry of Public Security, although the age for applying for a small car driver’s license is lowered, it is also proposed to expand the scope of medical examinations and medical institutions. In the future, the physical condition of drivers over a certain age will be strictly monitored.
