ABSTRACT

The employment of more and more private doctors in the sterilization and IUCD programme, particularly in the later programme, and making the most effective use of them, should be given considerable importance. The Committee consider that for achieving the maximum results it would not be enough only to give to the medical personnel the incentive. The Committee recommend that in the field of publicity and mass education, the respective roles of the Central and State Governments should be well defined. The Committee also recommend that a strong executive agency should be created in the Health Directorate of each State Government to deal exclusively with the Family Planning Programme. The State Governments should be required to furnish to the Central Government periodically a consolidated statement of expenditure incurred on account of grants-in-aid given to voluntary agencies.
