HC Deb 20 January 1997 vol 288 c452W
Mr. Allen

To ask the Secretary of State for Defence if Ministers are entitled to use child care facilities supported by his Department. [11598]

Mr. Arbuthnot

Ministers of the Crown are eligible to make use of the child care facilities provided by the Department. If use were made of my Department's child care facilities by my ministerial colleagues or by me, we would expect to pay the full non-subsidised cost of the care provided.
