A delegation of the Chinese mainland's Association for Relations Across the Taiwan Straits (ARATS) left Beijing Monday morning for Taiwan for a new round of talks.

ARATS President Chen Yunlin, who leads the delegation, will meet Chiang Pin-kung, chairman of Taiwan's Straits Exchange Foundation (SEF), Tuesday in Taiwan's Taichung.

The ARATS and the SEF are authorized by authorities in the mainland and Taiwan to handle cross-Strait issues.
