Government launches publicly-funded national social care system in the major reform 
15 August 5650



In what Premier Soca called "a victory for the working families and dignity of labour", the State Council today has officially launched the National Care and Support Authority (NCSA), a sweeping new government program aimed at transforming how Bianjie operates social care and supports the most vulnerable: children, disabled and elderly. The agency, jointly developed by the Ministry of Finance, the Ministry of Health and Social Security and independent experts is the largest social reform in decades. 

NCSA is expected to recognise the right of all people to receive, and then guarantee the universal access to free and publicly-funded and provided childcare, elderly care and support services for the disabled people in Bianjie. Over the next 5-7 years, the government plans to expand the coverage of the program nationwide, prioritising rural and distant areas, low-income and working class households. "For decades, social care industry has been an invisible engine of our economy; it has been neglected and underpaid. This changes today", said Minister of Health and Social Security Laimbu Meiheri.  

For a while, the social care has been treated as a burden falling mostly on Bianjian women, with the care jobs historically being ignored and unsupported by the government. The study from the Social Science faculty of the University of Niyalma on the social care jobs in Bianjie, published in 5647 found that women spend three times as many hours on unpaid domestic and care labour as men. Later, that study became the focus of palriamentary election campaign, with SPP pledging to reform that, and NCSA will serve to do just that, minister Meiheri said. "Bianjian government is finally taking responsibility, at last. This is not only a gender policy, this is an act of redistribuitive justice and economic stimuli, to help our economy grow, and our people prosper". Under the new system, care services will be offered through a network of public institutions, worker cooperatives, and municipally-run centers. All care workers will receive union protections, pensions, and access to career advancement programs.
