Hon CARMEL SEPULONI: From 1 July, supplementary payments, such as the accommodation supplement and temporary additional support, will no longer be considered as income when assessing people's eligibility for childcare assistance. The immediate impact will be that 2,100 people will be eligible for more childcare assistance. It's important to note that on 1 April 2022, we will be making further improvements to childcare assistance, by indexing income thresholds to annual average wage growth. This was stopped in 2010, and has meant that, over time, less people have been eligible for childcare assistance. Out Of School Care and Recreation and childcare assistance play a vital role in supporting parents to gain and maintain employment.
