Childcare services

Emma KEALY (Lowan) (09:57): The critical inequity in accessing child care in rural and regional Victoria continues to expand under a Labor government, and people are paying the price in my electorate, where childcare deserts are absolutely everywhere and getting worse. Labor has failed to train enough early years workers to fill our vacancies, so we have got a 90-place centre vacant in Horsham and we have got centres being built in Stawell and Murtoa which will not be able to be filled. Labor are incompetent.
