No decision has been made in relation to specifying China on the enhanced tier of FIRS. As I set out in the House of Commons on 13th October, we look very carefully at any question of whether to place a particular country on the enhanced tier of the scheme.

Any changes to the countries listed will be announced first in Parliament in the usual way.
