answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 08/11/2016 answer text <p>The government published an assessment of the cost of childcare in 2015, following a thorough review of the evidence. The review is available from: <a href="https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/review-of-childcare-costs" target="_blank">https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/review-of-childcare-costs</a>.</p><p> </p><p>The government has consulted on providing an average funding rate to local authorities of £4.71 per hour for the government funded 3 and 4 year old offer, of which 95% must be passed to childcare providers. This is above the representative costs per hour for 3 and 4 year olds set out in the review of childcare costs. Providers should therefore not need to subsidise government funding to meet the full cost of providing the 3 and 4 year old offer.</p> answering member constituency Gosport answering member printed Caroline Dinenage grouped question UIN 51820 question first answered 08/11/2016 10:52:03 answering member 4008 label Biography information for Dame Caroline Dinenage
