Question to the HM Treasury:
To ask Mr Chancellor of the Exchequer, how many parents have stopped using childcare vouchers in order to use tax-free childcare.
HMRC are delivering the childcare service in partnership with National Savings & Investments (NS&I). Atos are a contractor to NS&I. It is not the Government’s usual practice to comment on financial arrangements, or release correspondence, between departments and their contactors since they may be commercially sensitive.
Data on how many parents have stopped using childcare vouchers in order to use Tax-Free childcare is not available.
