Amend the Childcare (Fees) Regulations 2008, SI 2008/1804, which prescribe application fees and annual fees payable by registered childcare providers to Her Majesty’s Chief Inspector of Education, Children’s Services and Skills (“the Chief Inspector”).
Amend the Childcare (Fees) Regulations 2008, SI 2008/1804, which prescribe application fees and annual fees payable by registered childcare providers to Her Majesty’s Chief Inspector of Education, Children’s Services and Skills (“the Chief Inspector”). The amendment extends the operation of the transitional provision which ensured that childcare providers (other than childminders) who were automatically transferred on 1 September 2008 from the previous childcare register onto the Early Years Register paid a lower annual fee than would otherwise be the case. By extending the effect of the transitional provision for a further year to 31 August 2012 this group will continue to pay the lower annual fee; otherwise it would increase substantially for them from 1 September 2011. No changes are made to the level of other fees prescribed by SI 2008/1804.
In force: 1 September 2011
