TRANSCRIPT – SKY NEWS NEWSDAY WITH KIERAN GILBERT

KIERAN GILBERT:

The government also announced yesterday, families will be able to access child care subsidies for up to three days a week under the new plan. Let’s get some reaction from the Shadow Minister for Early Childhood Education, Angie Bell.

Angie, thanks for your time. The idea of dealing with those child care deserts, places like regional areas, out of suburban areas, isn’t it a good thing to try and provide that supply?

MICHAEL MCLAREN:

Look, I had my say on the new child care plan from the Albanese government yesterday. Not a fan, not a fan. But I’ll just outline it quickly again for you. The ALP, they’ve pledged to introduce a three-day guarantee for child care services. So, what that basically means is every family will be able to access early childhood education for three days each week before they start school. But there’s a catch, because, you know, if you can get a place and you pay for it, well you can get that now anyway. The difference is the government have decided they go to abolish the activity test.

Nothing but smoke and mirrors and no solutions for working families

The Coalition will strongly oppose Labor’s new Misinformation Bill, which Federal Member for Moncrieff, Angie Bell, described as an attack on free speech. When the Government released its first Misinformation Bill last year, more than 20,000 people put in submissions and comments opposing it, and so it was withdrawn in disgrace.
