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.
Speaking at the daily coronavirus briefing in Edinburgh, Scottish First Minister Nicola Sturgeon has said that the ‘time has come’ for universal basic income in Scotland.
Promising ‘constructive discussions’ with the UK government on the matter, Sturgeon pointed to the Scottish government having brought forward four pilots of a similar scheme in different council areas.
Under the scheme, residents would be given a universal payment from the government, with some benefits scrapped.
The Reform Scotland think tank has devised a detailed proposal for a UBI scheme, which would consist of an annual payment of £5,200 a year for adults and £2,600 for those under 16. It is calculated that the scheme would cost the Scottish government £20 billion each year, with measures found to raise £18.34 billion in revenue to support the scheme.
