HC Deb 06 November 2000 vol 356 cc46-7W
Mr. Yeo

To ask the Secretary of State for Education and Employment what are the latest available figures for the provision of child care places in rural areas in England; and what the figures were for each year since 1995. [136678]

Ms Hodge

The information requested is not available. Statistics on child care places are collected at a local education authority level and are not split between urban and rural areas.
