Early Childhood Education and Care (Strengthening Regulation of Early Education) Bill 2025

Senator HODGINS-MAY (Victoria) (09:45): I don't feel any more reassured about the backlog and the significant delays on those national quality standards after that answer, but I urge you to provide more information as you get it following those consultations with states. What is the threshold in the National Quality Standard assessment that would prevent a provider from opening a new CCS-approved service if they are already operating existing centres?

I'm keen to understand a bit more about the threshold.
