Central Government-handled projects shall be processed according to the income-expenditure budgeting procedure by the in-charge agency of the project.The council of peoples' representatives at all levels shall review and approve the community development fee charging scheme along with the funding and budget plans of the project. In the event that the review of said fee charging scheme has been postponed or the proposal vetoed, the relevant project funding and budget plan review shall be put on hold or canceled. The charging of community development fees shall be limited to the extent where the original approved amount has been collected in full.
