On March 1 2003, the State Council promulgated the Sino-foreign Cooperation in Running Schools Regulations  (中外合作办学条例) (the Regulations), which replace the prior rules from 1995. Effective as of September 1 2003, the Regulations are expected to enhance the administration of educational institutions with foreign investment, and to protect the lawful interests of all participants and therefore to attract more foreign investment in education.
