HC Deb 30 March 1995 vol 257 c783W
Mr. McNamara

To ask the Secretary of State for Transport what are the childcare or nursery facilities within his Department; and what is the breakdown in their use(a) by grade and (b) by gender. [15232]

Mr. Norris

Staff in DOT central and its agencies have access to 10 holiday playschemes and three nursery facilities throughout the United Kingdom.

Due to the varying number of places taken up at different times of the year, and the changing client group, it is not possible to supply precise numbers, by grade and gender of all parents/guardians whose children use the playschemes.

The table confirms the gender breakdown of parents/guardians who use the available nursery facilities. Figures are not available in relation to grade.
