answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 08/03/2018 answer text <p>We have already increased the level of support for childcare costs within Universal Credit from 70% to 85%, it’s highest ever level. This is more generous than the support available to people on legacy benefits, and means that hard working families on Universal Credit can now reclaim up to 85% of their eligible childcare costs. This gives parents up to £646.35 per month for one child and £1108.04 per month for two or more children.</p><p><strong> </strong></p><p>The Government now provides more support than ever before to help parents with the costs of childcare, including providing 15 hours a week of free childcare in England for all 3 and 4 year olds and disadvantaged 2 year olds, doubling free childcare available for working parents of 3 and 4 year olds to 30 hours a week.</p><p><strong> </strong></p><p>DWP has no plans to change the current limit on childcare costs covered by Universal Credit.</p> answering member constituency North West Hampshire answering member printed Kit Malthouse question first answered 08/03/2018 17:36:24 answering member 4495 label Biography information for Kit Malthouse
