I understand that the persons referred to by the Deputy were deemed ineligible for support under the Community Childcare Subvention (CCS) programme following verification by the Department of Social Protection of the information submitted by the childcare service as part of the annual parental returns. This matter was successfully appealed and the childcare service was notified on 27 May 2014 of the outcome. Officials in my Department have again contacted the service provider in question and confirmed with them the eligibility of the parents for support under the programme.
