This policy document outlines the Australian Government's Transition Payment scheme for approved early childhood education and care providers, effective 13 July to 27 September 2020. The scheme replaced the temporary Early Childhood Education and Care Relief Package and provided weekly payments equal to 25 per cent of capped hourly fees charged during a reference fortnight (typically commencing 17 February 2020), divided by two. Providers received nine weeks of payments, with the final two weeks (14-27 September) excluded to account for an extra business continuity payment in July 2020. Eligibility required providers to be approved, cease JobKeeper claims from 20 July 2020, maintain fee levels from the reference period, and retain employees throughout the transition period. The scheme applied standard rules to most services, with separate arrangements for vacation care providers and new services commencing after 13 July 2020.
