Petition Action

Double the free child care hours for working parents or single working parent.

Petition Details

More than one in four UK business leaders say employees have cut their hours because of the "high cost of childcare", a report from the British Chambers of Commerce says.

The government wants to have a lower unemployment rate, so they should consider things like this.

Additional Information

UK jobless rate declined to 4.8 percent in the three months to September 2016 from 4.9 percent in the April to June period and 5.3 percent a year earlier. This could be changed if they helped us with child care costs!
