Childcare Assistance Programme : Contents
Amount payable during absences
The usual weekly amount that the centre receives when the child attends is the amount that is paid to the centre during absences.
For example if a centre usually receives $100 when the child attends this is the amount they will receive when the child is absent regardless of the actual absence fee charged by the centre.
Note if a centre or service knows that a child will not be returning the Subsidy must be cancelled from that date.
