Question to the HM Treasury:
To ask Mr Chancellor of the Exchequer, what progress his Department has made on the roll-out of tax-free childcare; and if he will make a statement.
Tax-Free Childcare will be launched early this year. It will be rolled out gradually to parents in a managed and careful way to ensure the introduction of this new scheme is as smooth as possible for parents. All eligible parents will be able to access the scheme by the end of 2017.
