The main proposal in the 2011 MTBPS with respect to social security is to reprioritise funds already in the baselines towards strengthening selected child welfare programmes. The two main programmes to be supported are access to early childhood development services and, home and community based child care and protection. The FFC supports this proposal, but in the context of reforms to resolve more structural issues in the sector. FFC's view is that funding should go with certain conditions, including establishing a viable monitoring system to track the quality of services provided. FFC argues that giving more money to the sector should be guided by the need for a serious policy review about the role of the State and the effectiveness of delivery models, as the current approach is not consistent with international good practice.
