We’re seeking views on:
- how local authorities should work with childcare providers to provide the entitlement
- how we meet the needs of working parents
- provision for children with special education needs and disabilities
- how local authorities tell parents about locally available childcare
- how local authorities would operate a ‘grace period’ (what happens if a parent loses their eligibility for the entitlement)
