answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 09/09/2019 answer text 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> answering member constituency Richmond (Yorks) answering member printed Rishi Sunak question first answered 09/09/2019 09:34:36 answering member 4483 label Biography information for Rishi Sunak
