Senator GREEN (Queensland) (14:52): My question is to the Minister representing the Minister for Early Childhood Education, Senator Watt. The Albanese Labor government has made making early learning more affordable for families a priority of our first year in government. The government clearly recognises the critical role early learning plays in a child's development and boosting our economic prosperity by supporting workforce participation. Why has the government made early learning a priority, and what changes is the government making to the childcare subsidy from July? How will these changes impact on Australian families, easing cost-of-living pressures?
