Youth money management - Flexible Childcare Assistance and Training Incentive Allowance

From 17 November 2025, Flexible Childcare Assistance and ongoing Training Incentive Allowance payments are excluded from youth money management. These can now be paid to the young person, their agent (if authorised) or a supplier (as appropriate).

MSD will decide who the payment goes to after talking with the young person's youth service provider (if one is assigned to the young person).
