§ Mr. RedmondTo ask the Secretary of State for Scotland if he will list by location, where creche facilities are provided for working mothers employed in his Department; and if they have to make any payment for this service.
§ Mr. RifkindMy Department does not directly provide creche facilities. The central Edinburgh holiday play-scheme (for school-age children of civil servants), which is largely self-financing, is, however, used by Scottish Office staff.
