This afternoon.
In Dublin.
Childcare workers and parents take part in a protest over pay and conditions in the sector.
Last week Minister for Children and Youth Affairs Katherine Zappone told providers that, following “legal advice”, they would lose State payments if they closed their centres in order to attend the protest.
However she reversed this decision following a public outcry.
