The Government announced last week further details of the consultation process on Tax- Free Childcare which is to be introduced from Autumn 2015 and have published the consultation document which includes timeframes and information on how the new scheme will work.

We have shown below a link to the consultation document from HM Treasury where you will find the full details of the consultation:

Comments are invited on the design of Tax-Free Childcare from all interested parties and details of how to respond are included in the document.

The Government have confirmed that they plan to work in close partnership with all stakeholders throughout the process and are particularly interested in input from childcare voucher providers. We attended the first of three workshops last week and will be attending a further two over the coming weeks.

We will continue to keep you updated throughout the consultation process and as and when new information becomes available.
