The National Population and Family Planning Commission will send 10 teams to 19 provincial administrative regions to inspect and ensure enforcement of the family planning policy, said an online statement issued by the commission.
It came after several family planning officials in Northwest China's Shaanxi province were punished for forcing a local woman who was seven months pregnant to have an abortion.
After being exposed online, the forced abortion, which is prohibited by family planning regulations, kindled public anger.
The coming inspection is aimed at guaranteeing the lawful enforcement of the policy by correcting some problems that occur when local officers enforce the policy, said the statement released on Wednesday.
Wang Xia, minister of the commission, said on Tuesday the implementation of family planning policies is directly related to people's interests, and the slightest error may cause a negative impact and tarnish the image of the country.
She urged inspection officers to find and solve problems of policy enforcement, particularly at the grassroots level.
Zhang Jian, information chief of the commission, said Thursday that results of the inspection would be publicized.
Lu Jiehua, a sociology professor at Peking University, urged the commission to release more details about the inspection and invite a third party to supervise and participate in the process.
