MP proposes to introduce a tax for families

Officials offered to complement the concept of family policy another important factor, which is predicted to lead to an increase in fertility.

The first deputy chairman of the State Duma Committee on Family, Women and Children Olga Batalina advocated the introduction of a tax for families with middle and higher income are not having children or raising a child. Such a measure "effectively can work against families who have housing and sufficient income, but do not make decisions about the birth of the second and third children, and devote themselves to other goals and objectives," - said the deputy at the round table dedicated to the issues of the demographic situation in Russia.





Such a mechanism of the effect on fertility has been used successfully in several European countries. In France, for example, a family with an average income, usually raises three children. According to the official, a high birth rate does not depend on migration, namely the effective family policies pursued by the government. "The tax rate encourages people to form a family, as it depends strongly on the number of people in the family, to encourage people to have lived together in the family, as well as stimulates the birth of the third child," - said Batalina.

Olga Batalina, first deputy chairman of the State Duma Committee on family, women and children, especially for the "Children of Mail.Ru»:

"This idea is only being discussed. It is impossible to speak about concrete figures and mechanisms. In June 2012, it adopted a "National Strategy for Action on Children", which involves the planning of measures in the field of state family policy, including this year also. Of course, you must have something to do with the demographic challenge, which is at the moment. Namely stimulate the birth rate and lower mortality. In the 90s we had problems with fertility. And those girls who were born in 1992-1993, are now themselves come into childbearing age. Much depends on them, but because of low birth rates in the '90s, the problem need to be addressed, and those who already have children.

It is clear that families are all different. The government actively assists all: social benefits, maternity capital. But there are families in which material wealth is above average, but the third and even second child was not there. In Europe, already have positive experience of similar measures. We need to strive for such. On passing the roundtable expressed different ideas on tax incentives. How to calculate income? With taking into account all the human or dependents in the family. While all discussed. But, in my opinion, the tax system in Russia is inefficient is in stimulating fertility ».
