Paying women to have children

The following podcast from BBC explores a proposal that is being considered in Hungary where women with more than four children won't have to pay income tax.

The aim of this policy is to encourage women to have more children to combat the country's falling population rate.

An interesting, if controversial proposal that could spark some debate!
