AN  ACT to direct the office of children and family services to examine,
  evaluate and make recommendations on the availability of day care  for
  children; and providing for the repeal of such provisions upon expira-
  tion thereof

  THE  PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, REPRESENTED IN SENATE AND ASSEM-
BLY, DO ENACT AS FOLLOWS:

  Section 1. The office of children and family services, in consultation
with the department of labor, shall examine, evaluate and make recommen-
dations concerning the availability of day  care  for  children  in  the
state.  Such  office shall pay particular attention to the impact of the
lack  of necessary day care upon the ability of  women  in  poverty  and
those  in working families to enter the labor force. The office of chil-
dren and family services shall direct its attention to:
  (a) establishing an inventory of affordable day care for working fami-
lies and those in or near poverty;
  (b) geographically identifying day care shortage areas on  a  regional
basis  and  projections  of  the future demand for day care based on the
regional birth rates, employment and population growth rates;
  (c) comparing on a statewide and regional basis, the  demand  for  day
care  services  over  the  succeeding  5  years,  including  whether the
projected growth rate in the day care industry  will  be  sufficient  to
meet such future needs;
  (d) assessing the cost of day care for children on a regional basis;
  (e)  identifying  nontraditional child care needs within the state and
regionally for parents who work other than a  9:00  A.M.  to  5:00  P.M.
shift  or  part-time,  including  those  who  work night shifts or swing
shifts, and those parents who require early drop off and/or late pick up
services from their child care provider;
