To cite some examples : A deliberate effort by a national Government to influence the three demographic variables : fertility, mortality and migration. A set of coordinated laws aimed at reaching some demographic goals. Direct and indirect measures, formulated by the whole range of social institutions, including Government, which whether intended or not, may influence the size, distribution or composition of human population. In defining population policy , it is useful to distinguish between explicit and implicit policies. An explicit policy is a statement or a document by a national Government announcing its intention or plan to affect the country s population growth and perhaps its distribution and/or composition as well. Explicit population policies have been issued in a variety of forms, including legislation; documents by Governmental ministries and commissions, sections of development plans, policy declaration of a ruling party, statements by the nation s President or other high level officials.

In contrast implicit policies are those laws, regulations and other directives which, although not necessarily issued for the purpose of affecting population growth, distribution or composition, have the affect of doing so. By aggregating the impact of those policies that influence population growth, distribution and composition directly and indirectly, one could theoretically arrive at a conclusion about a country s implicit population policy. In this way, one examines what a country does not merely what it says . It is often very difficult to uncover a country s implicit policy. First, with few exceptions, policies are not generally coordinated to reach a common population goal. Second, most social and economic development policies (e.g. education, health, income, housing) are thought to influence fertility indirectly, measurement of all these policies for their effect on population dynamics can be very complex and cumbersome. Third, the net impact of policies often is not known for many years if it is known at all. 46. (A) Targets (B) Education (C) Health (D) Income 48.
