HC Deb 20 June 1978 vol 952 c106W
21. Mr. Clemitson

asked the Secretary of State for Education and Science what is her policy towards local authorities asking parents to contribute financially to their children's education in nursery schools.

Miss Margaret Jackson

I refer my hon. Friend to the answer that I gave to his Question on 16th May.—[Vol. 950, c. 93–4.] My right hon. Friend strongly deprecates the practice of local authorities asking parents to make voluntary contributions to nursery education.
