Question to the HM Treasury:
To ask Mr Chancellor of the Exchequer, how many potentially eligible parents were unable to access their eligibility codes for their 30 hours of free childcare due to technical issues with the site administered by HM Revenue and Customs.
Parents who reported technical issues during the application process were provided with a 30 hours code manually. Those parents who are eligible, and applied before 31 August will be given a code that will allow them to access 30 hours free childcare for the September term.
