BEIJING (Reuters) – China will step up financial support for technology innovation and ensure the security and stability of its supply chains, State TV reported on Tuesday, citing a top government meeting chaired by President Xi Jinping.

The government would also step up fiscal support for less-developed and border areas, while keeping a lid on hidden local government debt, China Central Television said.
