The following reasoned amendment to the second reading moved by Wendy Lovell (Opposition) was debated and defeated:
That all the words after “That” be omitted and replaced with “the Bill be withdrawn and not reintroduced until the Government —
provides a preliminary or draft fee structure for the early learning centres (ELCs) scheduled to open in 2025 and 2026;
seeks written feedback from any childcare centre, kindergarten or preschool within a 15 kilometre radius of the proposed government ELC sites regarding the likely impact of a government ELC on their workforce capacity and enrolments, and provides their feedback to the House;
conducts an analysis on the childcare workforce implications of the new government ELC sites, including —
establishing the workforce vacancy rates around the locations of the new sites;
providing the House with a comprehensive plan on how the Government will ensure existing childcare centres and kindergartens are not disadvantaged in their ability to recruit and retain staff in their existing programs; and
provides an estimate of the budget impact of the operating costs for the government ELCs scheduled to open in 2025 and 2026.”.
