I refer to the government tender for tax-free, price controlled, guaranteed child care to be provided for staff who work at Centrelink and certain other agencies. Can the Treasurer confirm to the House that these parents will have the opportunity to pay for their child care out of pre-tax income, an opportunity not given to millions of others? Will they also receive the child-care benefit and the 30 per cent rebate?
