Ministry of Education set to take tougher stance on ECE fraud - a podcast by RNZ

An independent report shows the Education Ministry is preparing to take a tougher line on fraud by early childhood services.
The review of a special unit that identified and raided high-risk early learning services says fraud was not a focus for the group, but it will be in future.
The group investigated mostly home-based educations services and cancelled up to 17 licences across nine services for breaches of early childhood rules, most of them related to health and safety.
Education correspondent John Gerritsen spoke to Susie Ferguson.
