Tax-Free Childcare consultation – short survey

17 September 2013

The government has published a short survey aimed at employers who provide childcare vouchers to their employees.

As previously published the government is introducing a new Tax-Free Childcare scheme for working families which will provide 20 per cent of working families’ childcare costs, up to £1,200 for each child.

The government has developed a short online survey aimed at employers who provide childcare vouchers to their employees, to help inform the design of this new scheme.

The survey asks questions on the costs of the current voucher system and for views on the transitional period when over time Tax-Free Childcare will replace the current Employer Supported Childcare scheme.

The survey will take no more than five minutes to complete and all responses will be treated as anonymous.

For clarity there are now three short government surveys running for the Tax-Free Childcare consultation and a separate CIPP survey which we published last week – see below for details. Employers and payroll professionals – please complete both the first and second surveys as the questions are not the same.

1. Short survey - designed specifically for employers who provide employer supported childcare (closing date 14 October)

2. CIPP survey – relevant questions on Tax-Free Childcare for employers and payroll professionals (closing date 29 September)

3. Short survey - Tax-Free Childcare questionnaire designed specifically for parents (closing date 27 September)

4. Short survey - Tax-Free Childcare questionnaire designed specifically for childcare providers and those who work within the childcare industry (closing date 14 October).
