To ask the Solicitor-General what creche facilities are provided by the Attorney-General"s Office; and at what cost. [104288]

[holding answer 25 March 2003]: None of the Departments for which the Attorney-General holds ministerial responsibility provide creche facilities. However, the Treasury Solicitor"s Department has a contract through the Cabinet Office, with Childcare Enterprises Ltd. This company provides a

holiday play scheme to which Treasury Solicitor"s staff can apply at a cost, currently, of £30 per day. Half the cost is subsequently met by the Department. In the current financial year, 2002–03, seven staff have used the play scheme service, at a cost to the Department of £1,476.00.
