HC Deb 24 January 1996 vol 270 c280W
20. Mr. Steinberg

To ask the Secretary of State for Education and Employment what steps she will take to ensure that a nursery place in a state school will be available to every holder of a nursery voucher who wants one. [9435]

Mr. Robin Squire

The number of additional places created through the nursery voucher scheme in the maintained sector will depend on individual local education authority decisions influenced by parental choice.
