HC Deb 25 April 1988 vol 132 c72W
Ms. Richardson

To ask the Secretary of State for Defence what child care provision his Department provides for pre-school age children of the Department's employees; what child care provision, for school holiday and/or after-school care, is provided for employees' children aged five and over; what plans there are for increasing provision in the next five years; and how these are to be funded.

Mr. Sainsbury

The Ministry of Defence has no child care provision at present for civilian employees. The Department is however encouraging personnel to become involved in the setting up of holiday play schemes.
