Child care legislation

Summary

Deputy Robert Troy asked when legislation underpinning preschool-service regulations would be introduced; the Tánaiste said it would be addressed during Committee Stage of the Child and Family Agency Bill.

Just before the summer recess the Government announced that the heads of a Bill to amend the Child Care Act 1991, to underpin regulations and inform provisions for preschool services, had been published. When will that legislation be brought before the House?
