This instrument amends the Family Start and Early Start (Childcare Assistance) Programme (\“programme\”) under
the Social Security Act 1964. It increases on 1 October 2017 the assistance available under the programme up to a
maximum of 20 hours a week for all children aged 18 to 36 months who are enrolled in an approved early-
childhood education programme if their families are enrolled in a Family Start or Early Start Programme. It also
extends eligibility to children of that age for whom assistance under the programme was paid while their families
were enrolled in a Family Start or Early Start Programme and removes the requirement that a Family Start or
Early Start Programme must be selected by the chief executive for the purpose of the programme.
