[Henan planned parenthood meeting]

A Henan provincial planned parenthood report meeting was recently held in Xinyang. The meeting called on the province to make vigorous remedial measures before the wheat harvest to deal with pregnancies not covered by the plan and resolutely reduce the population growth rate. Reports were delivered by representatives of 10 prefectures and 3 counties. The participants pointed out: To shift the focus of planned parenthood work to promoting the idea that a couple should have only 1 child and to reduce the province's natural population growth rate to below 10/1000 this year and to below 5/1000 by 1985 constitute a glorious and arduous battle task for the whole party and the people of the whole province. Provinical CCP committee Secretary Zhang Shude spoke at the conclusion of the meeting.
