Clause 61 - Applications for registration on the general register: childminders
Childcare Bill
9:15 am
Helen Goodman (Bishop Auckland, Labour)
I have a couple of questions about child protection in respect of the over-eights because I was not clear whether they were covered in the response that was given on clause 59. The clause referred to later years, but I was not clear whether that meant later earlier years—six to eight-year-olds—or the over-eights. Will the Minister explain how child protection standards will be maintained in provision for over-eights when providers choose not to register?
