Unlike the provision of creche facilities by local authorities, there has been a growth in child minding.
What seems to have been debated tonight is the provision of an in-house creche, which, in my view, would be mere feminist tokenism.
Provision of creche facilities in further education institutions is currently the responsibility of education authorities, and in higher education institutions of the institutions themselves.
Cuts have been made in the provision of nursery education in creches and playgroups.
Training providers are encouraged to help parents generally, for example by offering creche facilities, flexible hours of training and distance learning materials.
Payments are made directly to the child minder, day nursery or creche by the training manager who is responsible for organising the training programme.
That is the major function of other forms of child care-—for example, day nurseries, creches or child minders.
At this time also, family allowances were initiated for parents with seven or more children and the network of creches, kindergartens, and other child-care facilities expanded.
