According to the spirit of the CPC Central Committee on "increasing capital investment and ensuring the needs of epidemic prevention and control in various areas", approved by the State Council, in February 14th, the Ministry of Finance allocated the second batch of new coronavirus pneumonia epidemic prevention and control grants in 2020 to 8 billion yuan, supporting the development of epidemic prevention and control work in various regions, of which 3 billion 500 million yuan was allocated to Hubei province. As of February 14th, the finance at all levels had allocated 90 billion 150 million yuan for the epidemic prevention and control subsidy, of which the central government allocated 25 billion 290 million yuan, which provided a strong guarantee for epidemic prevention and control.

The Ministry of finance has previously stressed that local financial departments at all levels should deploy in line with local Party committees and governments and speed up the appropriation of funds in accordance with the principles of special duties and urgent affairs, so as to ensure timely and timely implementation of the epidemic prevention and control funds. The provincial financial departments should pay close attention to the operation of the funds in the grass-roots areas, especially in difficult areas, support the contingency funds for the epidemic prevention and control expenditures, and resolutely prevent the epidemic prevention and control work from being ineffective due to inadequate funding. To strengthen the supervision of funds, no place or department may arbitrarily intercept, occupy, divert or alter the use of funds, so as to give full play to the effectiveness of the use of financial funds.
