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

Senator WALSH (Victoria—Minister for Early Childhood Education and Minister for Youth) (09:54): The bill covers providers that receive the Commonwealth childcare subsidy. I think you're referring to another dreadful case that came to light, where there are a small number of providers outside the National Quality Framework. If they're in receipt of the Commonwealth childcare subsidy, the bill applies to them.
