A meeting was held in the Political Bureau of the Central Committee on May 3/KLOC-0. The meeting stressed that party committees and governments at all levels should strengthen overall planning, policy coordination and work implementation, organize the implementation of the three-child birth policy according to law, promote the matching of the birth policy with relevant economic and social policies, and improve the population impact assessment mechanism of major economic and social policies.
The Political Bureau of the Central Committee held a meeting on May 36 to listen to the report on the major policies and measures to actively deal with the aging population during the "14th Five-Year Plan" period, and to consider the decision on optimizing the birth policy to promote the long-term balanced development of the population.
The meeting pointed out that actively responding to the aging population is related to the national economy and people's livelihood and is an important measure to achieve high-quality economic development and safeguard national security and social stability. Since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, all localities and departments have conscientiously implemented the decision-making arrangements of the CPC Central Committee on actively responding to the aging population, accelerated the improvement of the social security system and the old-age service system, and achieved remarkable results in all work.
The meeting stressed that it is necessary to implement the national strategy of actively responding to population aging and accelerate the establishment and improvement of relevant policy systems and institutional frameworks. We will steadily implement the gradual delay of the statutory retirement age, actively promote the national overall planning of employees' basic old-age insurance, improve the multi-level old-age security system, explore the establishment of a long-term care insurance system framework, accelerate the construction of an old-age service system and health security system with community home-based care institutions as the main body and the combination of medical care and nursing, and develop the aging industry. Promote the transformation and upgrading of various fields and industries, vigorously carry forward the traditional virtues of filial piety and respect for the elderly of the Chinese nation, and earnestly safeguard the legitimate rights and interests of the elderly. Party committees and governments at all levels should improve the aging work system, increase financial input, improve the financial input policy and multi-channel financing mechanism for the development of the aging cause, and provide the necessary guarantee for actively responding to the aging population.
The meeting pointed out that since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, the CPC Central Committee has made major decision-making arrangements to implement the "two children alone" and "universal two-child policy" and achieved positive results. At the same time, China has a huge population, and the degree of population aging has deepened in recent years. Further optimizing the birth policy and implementing the policy and supporting measures that a couple can have three children are conducive to improving China's population structure, implementing the national strategy of actively responding to population aging, and maintaining China's human resource endowment advantage.
The meeting stressed that party committees and governments at all levels should strengthen overall planning, policy coordination and work implementation, organize the implementation of the three-child birth policy according to law, promote the supporting connection between the birth policy and related economic and social policies, and improve the population impact assessment mechanism of major economic and social policies. It is necessary to make overall consideration of marriage, childbirth, parenting and education, strengthen the educational guidance of marriageable young people's views on marriage and family, control bad social customs such as bad marriage customs and sky-high bride price, improve the service level of prenatal and postnatal care, develop a universal care service system, promote educational equity and supply of high-quality educational resources, and reduce family education expenditure. It is necessary to improve the maternity leave and maternity insurance system, strengthen support policies such as taxation and housing, and protect women's legitimate rights and interests in employment. For the one-child families and rural family planning families with two daughters before the adjustment of the universal two-child policy, the existing reward and assistance system and preferential policies will continue to be implemented.
The supporting measures of the three-child policy are coming. For the one-child families and rural family planning families with two daughters before the adjustment of the universal two-child policy, we should continue to implement the existing reward and assistance system and preferential policies.
It is necessary to establish and improve the all-round assistance and security system for family planning special families, improve the relief and care mechanism led by the government and participated by social organizations, and safeguard the legitimate rights and interests of family planning families.
It is necessary to deepen the study of national medium-and long-term population development strategy and regional population development planning, and promote long-term balanced population development.
