Simon Laube: Early Childhood Council CEO on the start to the FamilyBoost rebate - The Mike Hosking Breakfast

There's a belief the Government's FamilyBoost rebate is working, despite a lack of interest from eligible families. 

The new scheme is a hallmark policy of the Government's first Budget, offering financial support for early childhood education. 

It's been open for three weeks and less than half of families eligible have applied to receive it. 

Early Childhood Council chief executive Simon Laube told Mike Hosking it's an impressive start. 

He says it would take three or four years to do the same through ECE funding.
