David Seymour says early childhood centres are being held back by 'extraordinary' regulatory compliance standards.
The Associate Education Minister issued a 'please explain' to the Ministry of Education, after Manawatu's Country Kindy faced closure.
It has since been granted a 12-week continuation of operations from the Ministry.
Seymour says children weren't at danger.
"There's no question here that any student is in any danger, there's no health or safety issue. It all relates effectively to paperwork and compliance around the curriculum."
