Childcare Bill [ Lords ] (Second sitting)

Debate between Pat Glass and Flick Drummond

Tuesday 8th December 2015 Public Bill Committees

[Pat Glass]

I agree. I am simply confused, and I have always thought of myself as a relatively clever girl. I would like to understand it; will the Minister write to me setting out exactly how much money is available for this and where it is coming from?

[Mrs Flick Drummond (Portsmouth South) (Con)]

Does the hon. Lady agree, though, that it has to be not only affordable for providers, but sustainable for taxpayers? We are putting £2.6 billion in, and there is only a limited amount of money.
