From today, eligible parents and carers of two-year-olds will be entitled to 15 hours of funded childcare per week. The plan is that working parents of all children nine months and over will get 15 hours of free childcare from September this year, rising to 30 hours a year later.
The government's extended childcare policy is beginning today - but it starts amid warnings of a lack of funding and not enough staff to fulfil the pledge. From today, eligible parents and carers of two-year-olds will be entitled to 15 hours of funded childcare per week.

Labour criticised for copying Tory economic policyRachel Reeves has been slammed after she said Labour would copy a key Tory economic policy.

It would mean Labour can only borrow for investment but not day-to-day spending. This would limit the amount of money the government has to spend. The SNP has warned the move will "choke off economic growth and impose devastating cuts to public services". Unite the Union said the plans would mean Labour will "end up in a straitjacket of your own making."
