Tax-Free Childcare (TFC) was rolled out throughout 2017 and 2018 to replace childcare
vouchers. TFC is better targeted than childcare vouchers, as it broadens access to
childcare to all families who meet the eligibility criteria, whether they are an employee
or self-employed and regardless of who their employer is. It is also fairer, because
support is paid per child rather than per parent, so lone parent households get the
same support as those with more than one parent.<p> </p><p>The Government has no plans
to re-open the childcare vouchers scheme in the future.</p>
