The Australian Competition and Consumer Commission (ACCC) has started its inquiry into early childhood education and care prices.
A consultation schedule is now available on the ACCC website.
The schedule includes a wide range of consultation and information gathering activities.
Stakeholders include:
- small, medium and large child care providers in metropolitan, regional and remote areas
- parents and carers
- educators and workforce participants
- Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples
- people from culturally and linguistically diverse communities
- people with children who have a disability or complex needs.
The ACCC will provide an interim report to the Treasurer by 30 June 2023, and its final report by 31 December 2023.
