§ Mr. Tilleyasked the Minister for the Civil Service, if he will list the workplace nurseries which have been set up by Government Departments for their employees since 1970; and which of them are still in use.
§ Mr. HayhoeA purpose-built nursery for the use of civil servants was opened at Llanishen in 1973 as an 259W experiment. It was closed in 1978 because of a drop in demand combined with the high running costs. Plans for a second project in Croydon were then abandoned and no others have since been set up by Government Departments for their employees.
