HC Deb 30 October 1979 vol 972 c451W
Mr. Concannon

asked the Secretary of State for Education and Science what plans there are for expanding nursery school places in Nottinghamshire.

Dr. Boyson

My Department has recently invited local authorities to make bids for the 1980–81 building programme, which is expected to provide an additional 2,000 nursery places nationally. It is a matter for each local authority to decide on the provision it wishes to make within its own area.
