Bid to change family planning law stirs debate

Debate is raging over a draft amendment to China's population and family planning law following the government decision to drop the one-child policy.

The amendment encourages families to have two children but not more, and would remove the right to extended holidays for those who get married or have children late.

If passed, it would mean that those who enjoy marriage and maternity leave will have seven and 30 fewer days off, respectively.
