Three-child policy (Chinese: 三孩政策), whereby a couple can have three children, is a family planning policy in the People's Republic of China.[1] The policy was announced on 31 May 2021 at a meeting of the Politburo of the Chinese Communist Party, chaired by Chinese President Xi Jinping, on population ageing.[2][3]The announcement comes after the release of the results of the Seventh National Population Census, which showed that the number of births in mainland China in 2020 will be only 12 million, the lowest number of births since 1960, and the further ageing of the population, against which the policy was born.[4] This was the slowest population growth rate China experienced. [5] The state-owned Chinese news agency, Xinhua, stated that this policy would be accompanied by supportive measures to maintain China's advantage in human resources.
