Ms Bernie McNally:
Yes. We are looking at how we can regulate them in a supportive manner such that it is not burdensome and is done in an incremental way. We want to ensure that there is something in it for the childminders, namely, that we are giving them quality supports and so on. That acknowledges that many parents choose small ratios for their children because of the consistency of relationship, the small number of children being minded and so on.
