[Local childcare subsidy standards that are higher than the national basic standards can continue to be implemented after evaluation and filing] The State Council Information Office held a press conference at 14:00 today to introduce the childcare subsidy system and fertility support measures. Some places have previously explored and implemented local childcare subsidy policies, and some local standards are even higher than the national basic standards. How do local policies connect with national policies? Can local standards that are higher still be issued? Regarding this issue, Guo Yanhong, deputy director of the National Health Commission, introduced that for the childcare subsidy policies that have been implemented in various places, local governments should formulate specific policy connection plans to ensure that local policies and national systems are connected in an orderly manner. In this process, the vital interests of the people must be effectively protected. If the local subsidy standards were previously higher than the national basic standards, they can continue to be implemented after the evaluation and filing work is completed in accordance with regulations.
