Oral Answers to Questions

Debate between Claire Coutinho and Bob Seely

Monday 12th June 2023 Commons Chamber

[Claire Coutinho]

As I said, we have already set out some flexibilities in a consultation that was published last week, and I urge every single person in the early years sector to look at that. I urge the hon. Lady to look at it too, because there are much wider flexibilities in there: for example, looking at qualifications relaxations. Overall, the Government have set out the single largest ever investment into childcare; Labour has not set out a plan at all.
