State-run childcare sector the 'only common sense' solution to crisis, warns National Women's Council

Childcare providers across the country have warned that they are going 'insolvent' due to what they perceive is a lack of support from government.

A state-run childcare sector is the "only common sense" solution to the crisis issue, the National Women's Council has said.

Childcare providers across the country have warned that they are going "insolvent" due to what they perceive is a lack of support from government, with providers withdrawing from the core funding system, which threatens to see prices increase for parents.
