HM Treasury written question – answered at on 28 July 2017.
Her Majesty's Government why parents who submit an online application for 30 hours free childcare to the Department for Education website are sent a holding response.
Her Majesty's Government, following submission of an application to receive 30 hours free childcare, how long the Department for Education takes to respond to parents confirming their eligibility.
Her Majesty's Government whether they intend to review the accessibility of the online process to register for 30 hours of free childcare; and if so, when that review will take place.
To be eligible for 30 hours free childcare parents must meet certain criteria which are checked before a parent is given a decision. The majority of these checks happen in real time. There are some cases where additional checks may be required.
As with all digital services, the childcare service is continually monitored and performance is assessed. Updates are made regularly as a result of these assessments.
