Minister ‘confident’ govt will deliver childcare expansion

The Education Secretary says she is "confident" that the Government will deliver its pledge to expand funded childcare for working families in England.

Gillian Keegan says the Government is "on track" to deliver the first phase of its rollout next week to 150,000 working parents of two-year-olds.

The cabinet minister also warns the Labour Party could put the expansion plan "at risk" if it wins the forthcoming general election.
