Evidence stage
Policy mandateRegulation, subsidy or public procurement is requiring or funding adoption — the mirror of a constraint. It shows adoption is being required, not that it has happened, so one mandate is never enough on its own; two independent ones are.
Tasks this bears on
Taking the application
Checking that the materials are complete, that the identity matches, and that this is the right counter.

Where this applies
Mainland China, issued by the State Council General Office. It requires adoption and sets a deadline for standardising the names, codes and legal bases of listed cross-provincial items; it also pushes mutual recognition of commonly used electronic certificates and adds 22 items in its annex. It is a requirement, not a report of what happened: it says nothing about how many counters closed, what share of applicants complete online, or staffing. The same document requires online and offline channels to be deeply integrated rather than counters closing.
What this means
The direction for this occupation is written down rather than inferred: cross-provincial items get nationwide standard names, codes and conditions on a deadline, backed by a national platform while counters keep taking them, and each electronic certificate recognised nationwide removes a document the counter used to check.
What it does not yet show
It requires adoption; it does not report it. Nothing here says how many counters closed, what share of applicants finish online, or what happened to staffing — a mandate describes something not yet completed, which is why this site does not let one flip an assessment on its own.
What you can check
Look up what your local service centre is measured on this year. If the target is the share of items completed online, the policy has reached your counter; if no such target exists, it has not.
Does it change the assessment?
No. The impact index is never moved by a single event. Nor did this record change a layer: all 1 linked judgement above already rested on earlier evidence. This one adds to them.
