China plans to end residency restrictions in small towns and introduce “reasonable” policies for the largest cities, China National Radio reported yesterday, citing the nation’s leading economic planner.

The government will gradually ease limits on residence permits in the smallest towns before moving on to medium- and larger-sized cities, Xu Shaoshi, the chairman of the National Development and Reform Commission, said in a report to the standing committee of the National People’s Congress.
