Legal Analysis: Family Planning, Three-Child Policy.

The *****Decision on Optimizing the Birth Policy and Promoting the Long-term Balanced Development of the Population" proposed by the Communist Party of China to revise the Population and Family Planning Law, advocate age-appropriate marriage and childbearing, eugenics, and implement the three-child policy. At present, a bill has been submitted to the Standing Committee of the National People's Congress, suggesting that a couple can have three children in the Population and Family Planning Law. After deliberation, the NPC Standing Committee will make a decision on amending the Population and Family Planning Law and make arrangements for the three-child policy.

All provinces (autonomous regions and municipalities directly under the Central Government) will also revise the regulations on population and family planning, and organize their implementation in accordance with the law in light of local conditions.

Legal basis: Article 20 of the Constitution of the People's Republic of China The State promotes family planning so that population growth is compatible with the economic and social development plan.

Article 18 of the Population and Family Planning Law of the People's Republic of China The State encourages a couple to have two children. Where the requirements provided by laws and regulations are met, arrangements may be made to arrange for the birth of another child. The specific measures shall be formulated by the people's congresses of provinces, autonomous regions, and municipalities directly under the Central Government or their standing committees.

Ethnic minorities should also practice family planning, and the specific measures shall be formulated by the people's congresses of provinces, autonomous regions, and municipalities directly under the Central Government or their standing committees. Where there is a discrepancy between the provisions on the reproduction of children between the provinces, autonomous regions, or municipalities directly under the Central Government where the husband and wife are registered, the principle of benefiting the parties shall apply.

Fertility policy refers to the guidelines formulated by the state or formulated under the guidance of the state to regulate the reproductive behavior of couples of childbearing age, including the quantity and quality of childbearing.

China's current fertility policy is mainly that the state encourages citizens to marry and have children at the appropriate age, and advocates that a couple have two children; Where the requirements provided by laws and regulations are met, arrangements may be made to arrange for the birth of another child. The specific measures shall be formulated by the people's congresses of provinces, autonomous regions, and municipalities directly under the Central Government or their standing committees in accordance with the local economic and cultural development level and population conditions.

On May 31, 2021, the Political Bureau of the Communist Party of China held a meeting to implement the policy that a couple can have three children and supporting measures.

The news that China is expected to try out the policy of "taking filial piety and having two children alone" has attracted attention. A number of experts said in an interview that at a time when China's demographic dividend is facing an inflection point, the draft should adjust the birth policy as soon as possible, and at the same time pay more attention to improving the quality of labor erasion, so as to cope with the challenge of "growing old before getting rich" brought about by the reduction of the demographic dividend and the intensification of aging. <>
