The consultation will include issues such as provision of voucher information, guaranteed payment times and how best to protect parents' money. After the consultation, representatives will be asked to comment in detail on specific elements of the consultation. A summary of results will then be used to develop a voluntary industry code of practice that will set out the minimum standards of service for childcare voucher provision. In summer 2009, the code of practice will be open to all providers willing to meet the voluntary minimum standards.
For a copy of the consultation, which runs from 27 April to 29 May, email info@westminsteradvisers.co.uk.
