Recommendation 13

13 Paragraph: 96

Develop better support for stay-at-home parents, including frontloaded benefits and expanded leave

Recommendation
We recommend the Government develop better support for parents who choose to stay at home with their children. For example, HMRC could explore ways to frontload child benefits to give parents more support in the early years when the economic and social impact of childcare is highest. The Department for Business and Trade could also consider expanding parental leave allowances.
