	answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 03/07/2014 answer text <p>Government-funded early education for three- and four-year-olds is already a universal entitlement, so there would be no cost of extending the entitlement. Universal Credit will be fully rolled out in the next Parliament, and spending decisions for that period have not been taken. This means it is, therefore not possible to estimate the potential cost on early learning for two-year-olds.</p> answering member constituency South West Norfolk answering member printed Elizabeth Truss question first answered 03/07/2014 16:23:17 answering member 4097 label Biography information for Elizabeth Truss
