Prime Minister Lawrence Wong on 26 February rejected Workers’ Party MP Louis Chua’s claim that the Government relies primarily on one-off vouchers and ad-hoc handouts, saying only about 5 per cent of the Budget is allocated to such measures while 95 per cent funds longer-term structural schemes.
He cited enhancements to preschool and student care subsidies and ComLink+ as examples of sustained support.
Wong said fiscal policies are reviewed regularly but without fixed timelines, and reiterated that while the Government will be ambitious in tackling Singapore’s low total fertility rate, it is a complex global challenge not solvable by financial incentives alone.
