 China's top legislature is to amend a law for lifting the start-line of 
personal income tax collection. 
 According to the draft amendment, the personal tax collection starting line 
will be increased from the current 800 yuan to 1,500 yuan so as to relieve the 
tax burden for the middle and low-income groups. 
 The draft amendment of law on personal income tax was submitted to the 17th 
session of the Standing Committee of the National People's Congress (NPC) for 
first deliberation on Tuesday.
