Birth control regulations, Fifth People's Conference, 17 May 1986.

These regulations authorize the following exceptions to the one child per couple policy for urban couples: a couple may have a second child when a) the first child is deformed with a non-hereditary disease that prevents the child from growing up to be an able-bodied worker; b) when one spouse of a remarried couple has had only one child and the other spouse has had none, or when both have had a child, but the children have been placed by court order in the custody of the ex-spouses; c) when the wife becomes pregnant and the couple has already adopted a child because either one or both spouses was medically determined to be sterile; d) when both spouses are single children; and e) when either or both of the spouses have worked in a mine or under water continuously for more than five years. For rural couples, the regulations described in a) to d) above are applicable. In addition, a couple may have a second child if their first child is a girl. The interval between the birth of the two children must be no less than four years. Ethnic minority couples living in minority regions are allowed to have two children, and in special circumstances three children. Having a fourth child is strictly forbidden.

Family planning measures, February 1988.

In early 1988, family planning (FP) measures were announced by Mr. Liang Jimin, spokesman for the Chinese State FP Commission. The major points of the measures include: 1) stressing the leading role of the recent reform in general, 2) stabilizing FP policies, and 3) strengthening the organizational frameworks at the grassroots level and improving program performance in backward regions. The policies were explained in detail as follows: "1) to introduce a 'FP contract responsibility system' throughout the country, in order to guarantee the fulfillment of government targets of population plans, such as contracts between governments at different levels, contracts between local government and FP departments; 2) to include the performance of local FP programs as one of the criteria for evaluating the achievements of government officials at various levels, such as relevant provisions in officials' term contracts; 3) to sign FP contracts between couples at reproductive ages and local governments, such as local governments responsible for allocating birth quotas, providing contraceptive equipment and services, and paying incentives and subsidies; the couples would be responsible for using contraceptives and planning births; 4) to improve social security schemes with respect to FP, such as old-age pensions for couples with one child who have undertaken sterilization, only-child life insurance, and contraceptive operation insurance; 5) to increase the proportion of only children among all births and strictly control the quota of authorized second-births in rural areas; 6) to improve education and FP services by relying on community FP associations or "Key Households of FP", to help increase the use rate and reduce the failure rate of contraceptives, increase the quality of contraceptive operations, and reduce the incidence of induced abortion; 7) to adopt measures to eliminate early marriage and early reproduction and introduce population education in middle schools; 8) to enact new laws and regulations, such as 'regulations concerning FP administration at the grassroots level units' and 'regulations concerning FP administration of the highly mobile population'; 9) to increase international exchange and cooperation and import advanced technology and equipment for contraception."
