China says Chinese developers must now install monitoring equipment at their projects, under official measures which took effect this month. The rules apply to firms that have received at least 30 million yuan ($4.2m) of government funding. It comes as authorities move to support China's crisis-hit property industry. The National Development and Reform Commission says that it was moving to regulate the implementation of projects and the use of funding. The rules are part of the Chinese government's efforts to ensure that funds being used to prop up struggling property developers are being used for their intended purposes.
