Alternative to PSC for childcare shut off in 2018
An alternative method for applying for the new National Childcare Scheme online, other than the public services card, was dramatically dropped on the advice of a State body with responsibility for the card’s expansion in January 2018.
The new National Childcare Scheme will go live on October 29. It will require parents to apply for subsidies personally, as opposed to via their childcare provider, as is currently the case.
