Reports suggesting Beijing is to loosen control on its one-child policy have been branded not true by authorities.
Beijing Population and Planning Commission (BPPC) say reports yesterday suggesting a relaxation of the current national policy are not sound, xinhuanet.com reported today.
"One-child policy is a basic national policy which should be carried out with consistency and stability," an unnamed official of BPPC said.
Currently parents are only permitted to have a second child if they are both from an only-child generation.
