HC Deb 27 November 1992 vol 214 c920W
Mr. McMaster

To ask the Secretary of State for Scotland what plans he has in place to promote the development of creche facilities in further and higher educational institutions in Scotland; and if he will make a statement.

Lord James Douglas-Hamilton

Provision of creche facilities in further education institutions is currently the responsibility of education authorities, and in higher education institutions of the institutions themselves.

From 1 April 1993 the boards of management of further education colleges will assume similar powers to provide facilities as presently enjoyed by their higher education counterparts.
