I apologise for being late as I got sidetracked in something else. I am glad that I got in to listen to Ms Reynolds’s contribution. I am supportive of what she said. It is important that we start looking after early childcare professionals, because they are professionals and they deserve adequate pay and conditions. We entrust these professionals with our children. Our children deserve the best and so do the people will look after and educate them. I reiterate my support to the witnesses and to the entire sector. I have no need to ask any questions because the witnesses have articulated well all those reasons morale is so low in the sector. If things are not changed, we will see a different sector, because the professionals will leave and go on to different professions,where they are treated better.
