The reporter learned today from the Supreme People's Court that by 2025, courts across the country will vigorously promote the clearing of overdue payments from government agencies and public institutions to small and medium-sized enterprises. A total of 9,166 cases have been closed, with 31.142 billion yuan in enforcement. Courts nationwide have strictly implemented the "back-to-back" clause judicial interpretation (the "Reply on the Effectiveness of the Clause in Which Large Enterprises Agree to Use Third-Party Payments as a Precondition for Payment" ), to prevent large enterprises from abusing their dominant position to "bully small businesses." The courts directly applied this judicial interpretation to 709 cases, helping small and medium-sized enterprises recover 1.9 billion yuan in accounts receivable. (CCTV News)
