I do not doubt that Mr. Murphy is working hard, but when Pobal came into being and we started supporting crèches, there were a lot of flaws. Are we going back to a paper-based system from September? How will we support the child care providers with funding if these systems are not up and running? I am sure this is a major concern to child care providers. Will the funds be based on numbers? How are we going to pay the people providing the service? I am very concerned about this.
