China one-child policy: can dropping limits increase birth rates?

China's one-child policy started in the 1980s to slow population growth, with some exemptions eventually coming about.

However, it's uncertain if this will encourage young families to have more babies, as China Correspondent Stephen McDonell has been finding out.
