Just to follow that up: the minister, if I understand him correctly, when he hears of centres putting up their fees in response to the increase in the childcare benefit, is going to notify parents in surrounding centres of those childcare fee increases? There is no legal action or additional powers that the minister is seeking to use or have agreed to in order to take any additional action against these childcare centres?
