Explanatory note

This note is not part of the regulations, but is intended to indicate their general effect.

These regulations, most of which come into force on 1 April 2007, amend the Social Security (Childcare Assistance) Regulations 2004.

The amendments increase—

•rates of childcare and OSCAR (out-of-school care and recreation) subsidies available to certain caregivers with dependent children; and
•income limits considered in determining which of those rates is, in any particular case, appropriate.

Regulation 4 and Schedule 1 make the adjustment to those income limits that is required (on 1 April 2007, because of the total percentage increase in the New Zealand Consumers Price Index since 4 October 2004) by section 132AC(2)(a) of the Social Security Act 1964.

Regulation 5 and Schedule 2, which come into force immediately after the commencement of the rest of these regulations,—

•increase further the income limits; and
•increase the rates to reflect a 2.63% increase in the New Zealand Consumers Price Index (All Groups) from the December 2005 quarter to the December 2006 quarter.

Issued under the authority of the Acts and Regulations Publication Act 1989.

Date of notification in Gazette: 8 March 2007.
