MINISTER OF HEALTH AND FAMILY WELFARE AND PARLIAMENTARY AFFAIRS (SMT. SUSHMA SWARAJ)
(a)to(d): A Statement is laid on the Table of the House.
STATEMENT REFERRED TO IN REPLY TO LOK SABHA STARRED QUESTION NO. 577 FOR 30.4.2003
(a) The Steering Committee of the Planning Commission on Family Welfare for the 10th Five Year Plan submitted its report in September 2002. The Committee reviewed the progress achieved during the IXth Five Year Plan and also suggested broad strategies for the Xth Plan. It noted that several states have achieved goals set for some components of the RCH Programme during the IXth Plan, demonstrating that these can be achieved within the existing infrastructure, manpower and inputs. For example:
Andhra Pradesh, Punjab, West Bengal and Maharashtra have shown substantial decline in birth rates; the latter three states are likely to achieve replacement level of fertility, ahead of the projection made.
Punjab has achieved couple protection rate and use of spacing methods far ahead of all other states.
Tamil Nadu and Andhra Pradesh have achieved increase in institutional deliveries
Kerala, Maharashtra, Punjab and Tamil Nadu improved immunization coverage
Tamil Nadu and Andhra Pradesh had achieved improvement in coverage and quality of antenatal care.
(b) The National Population Policy, 2000 (NPP) affirms the commitment of the government towards voluntary and informed choice while availing of reproductive health services and continuation of target free approach in administering family welfare services.
The progress achieved by states against expected level of performance by 2002 is given at Annexure-I. Funds released to State Governments, during the IXth Five Year Plan and in 2002-03, towards compensation for loss of wages to acceptors of sterilization, are at Annexure-II.
(c) Of the ten monitorable targets fixed for the Tenth Five Year Plan (2002-07), the following three pertain to the Department of Family Welfare:
Reduction in the decadal rate of population growth between 2001 and 2011 to 16.2%.
Reduction in Infant Mortality Rate (IMR) to 45 per thousand live birth by 2007 and 28 by 2012.
Reduction in Maternal Mortality Ratio (MMR) to 2 per thousand live births by 2007 and 1 by 2012.
The level of upscaling of Family Planning services estimated state-wise, in order to achieve the goals of the 10th Plan are given in Annexure-III.
(d) Reduction in fertility, mortality and population growth are major objectives of the 10th Five Year Plan. Towards this end, the Jansankhya Sthirata Kosh is being registered in the Department of Family Welfare with a corpus of Rs. 100 crores for mobilizing funds from the private sector for Family Welfare Program. An Empowered Action Group has been created to focus on the specific unmet needs of the eight socio-demographically lagging States viz. Bihar, Jharkhand, Madhya Pradesh, Chhattisgarh, Uttar Pradesh, Uttaranchal, Orissa and Rajasthan. In an attempt to improve the service delivery, a proposal for sanctioning 8669 Sub-centres throughout the country is under consideration. Besides, the Government of India has accepted funding for total number of sub-centres, since April 2002. New contraceptives have been added to the programme, namely IUD 380A and the Emergency Contraceptive.
Greater efforts shall be made under the RCH-II programme to address the issues of family planning and mother & child care. A Community Incentive Scheme to involve the Local Government Institutions in the Family Welfare Programme is under formulation. To involve the NGOs in a more meaningful manner, the guidelines have been revised to ensure that NGOs shift from mere advocacy to service delivery. The social marketing guidelines are also being finalised, to improve access to RCH services. The Department of Family Welfare is undertaking specific studies aimed at providing core information needed to formulate a health insurance scheme for the country. Special attention is being given to issues of adolescent health and urban and tribal population. The male involvement in Family Welfare Programme is sought to be raised. At the same time, an attempt is being made to make the Family Welfare Programme gender sensitive during the 10th Five Year Plan.
