Going to be phased back in over 3 years. No word on amount yet. However, cost prior to elimination in 2009 cost families $1,056 and singles $528. Imagine it'll be back up to similar levels.

Imagine most would have preferred a bump to personal income tax levels (or even movement to progressive tax rates) than this, given its going to impact low income earners the most.

edit: additional details coming out from gov't indicate it might be based on income
