To propose that the Senedd:

1. Notes that Reform UK had no commitments on childcare in its Welsh manifesto.

2. Further notes the clear evidence that improving access to childcare would reduce child poverty in Wales, and that access to universal funded childcare would support parents to return to work or to increase their working hours.

3. Recognises the Welsh Government’s commitment to provide an update on the initial costings and phasing for the expansion of universal childcare before the summer recess, in line with the commitments outlined in the First 100 Days plan.
