Dail to vote on childcare proposals tomorrow (Thurs) evening



A Sligo/Leitrim TD is calling on the government to back his party’s childcare proposals that include reduced fees, increased funding and better pay and conditions for staff.

Sinn Fein Deputy Martin Kenny says that with the cut in the pandemic wage subsidy, higher fees, lower pay and the possible closure of some facilities, childcare is facing a crisis.

His party’s motion on childcare was discussed in the Dail last night and will be voted on tomorrow, Thursday, evening.

He told Ocean FM News what he wants to see happen in practice in the childcare sector.
