Question to the HM Treasury:
To ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer, what recent estimate he has made of the number of parents applying for tax-free childcare.
For question 165013 I refer the honourable member to the answer I gave the honourable member for Birmingham Selly Oak on 30 January 2018 (124940).
The forecast expenditure on Tax-Free Childcare was published by the Office for Budget Responsibility in March 2018 at http://cdn.obr.uk/EFO-MaRch_2018.pdf
