Boosting women’s workforce participation is one of the biggest economic opportunities for the Australian Government. And making childcare cheaper is the biggest policy lever available to reduce barriers to women’s workforce participation and support women’s long-term economic security. Making childcare cheaper will also enable more children to receive the benefits of early learning and care.
