The Federal minister of justice, Brigitte Zypries, has met today her Chinese colleague, Wu Aying, in order to discuss issues concerning the legal co-operation between both countries. Among the questions discussed were topics which are of high importance to German companies doing business in China: besides questions about the safeguard of intellectual property they also talked about legal issues concerning the capital market, product liability as well as questions with regard to the registration of real estate (cadastral issues).
Further information about the Germano-Chinese dialogue on the rule of law as well as the documentation of previous conferences and projects (“Zweijahresprogramm 2006-2007”, “Projekte 2005” and “Rechtsstaatsdialog – Ein Überblick”) prepared in co-operation with the Gesellschaft für technische Zusammenarbeit are available on the internet.
