Some of the Deputy's questions relate to the workings of the scheme. The Department is working extremely hard to ensure this ambitious objective is achieved and to provide clarity to people on what kind of subsidy they will receive in light of their net household income. This information will be on the website, which we are designing and will have in place before the scheme implementation date of September 2017. If a person's net income changes over time we will make clear how that will ultimately impact on the child care subsidy available. We are working to develop and launch an information scheme to provide the information by the beginning of next summer.
