The Child Day Care Allowance Act, passed by Parliament last month, will help pay bills for families or parents earning under $70,000 per year. According to the Government, it could help up to 400 families make ends meet.
Officials are now crafting regulations to establish eligibility criteria and provide guidance on how the initiative is to be implemented.
