Childcare Services
Dail Éireann — 2025-04-29
============================================================

Claire Kerrane (SF), Roscommon-Galway

I wish to ask the Minister about the cost of childcare, which remains very high for a lot of parents and families. There is a commitment in the programme for Government to reduce the cost of childcare. How does the Minister intend to go about this and does she have a timeframe in mind for reducing the costs for families?
