The NHFPC stated in Beijing on Monday that “by the end of 2016, 50 per cent of all public places should have such facilities.”
It noted that by the end of 2020, all public places should offer mother and child facilities, including transportation hubs, business centres, hospitals and sightseeing and entertainment venues.
“Workplaces should also set up nursing rooms for breast-feeding staff,’’ the guideline showed.
The NHFPC urged the departments involved, including the National Development and Reform Commission, the Ministry of Housing and Urban-Rural Development and local railway and civil aviation administrations to take note.
It added that the departments should also ensure sufficient funds to finance the building of the facilities and better operational supervision.
