The Government has unveiled its plan to tackle affordability in childcare. After promises in the Programme for Government to cap monthly childcare fees at €200, Children’s Minister Norma Foley has announced the first phase of the plan to get there.
Ms Foley launched two action plans today. The first, Shaping the Future, looks at short-term measures that will be brought in next year to help with cost, accessibility and quality.
