The Northern Ireland government spends 0% of their budget on childcare, despite money being made available for this by Westminster through the Barnett formula.
We need a Childcare Strategy and childcare reform as a key priority for the new NI Executive.
Why is this important?
Melted Parents have 4 campaign demands.
1) Immediate financial support for families to support for childcare costs - preventing skilled workers leaving the workforce, supporting families living in poverty, and boosting the economy.
2) Parent representation through decision-making process on policies made on childcare.
3) Long term childcare sector reform with children at the centre that works for families and providers.
