SNAICC welcomes the opportunity to participate in the Productivity Commission Inquiry into Child Care and Early Childhood Learning (Inquiry).
This is a timely and valuable opportunity to develop a long-term national strategy that seeks to enable access and meaningful participation in early childhood development for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander children. If effectively utilised, this opportunity could fulfil significant untapped potential to realise early childhood outcomes for particularly disadvantaged children.
Accordingly, we ask the Productivity Commission to consider the discussion, evidence and recommendations outlined within this submission.
