Sue Robb of 4Children talks to Julie Laughton and Alison Britton from the Department for Education about the role of childminders in delivering the 30 hours free entitlement.
The new policy is designed to ‘ensure fairness in the system’ and means that all communities will be required to abide by the same planning rules.
As a part of the reforms, councils will have more powers to tackle illegal encampments, which will allow them to better protect green belt land, sites of special scientific interest, areas of outstanding national beauty and national parks.
Additionally, councils will no longer be required to provide sites for people evicted from large scale unauthorised encampments that happen to be within their area.
Communities Secretary Greg Clark said: “I’m determined to ensure fairness in the planning system, so everyone abides by the same rules.
“Today’s new policy strengthens the hand of councils to tackle unauthorised development in their area, ensures all communities are treated equally and that the protection of the Green Belt is enforceable.”
Housing and Planning Minister Brandon Lewis said: “Unauthorised traveller sites can blight communities, causing misery for their neighbours and creating resentment that planning rules don’t seem to be applied fairly.
“Today’s revised planning policy clearly sets out the protection against unauthorised occupation and that the rules apply fairly to every community equally – no ifs, no buts.”
