Proceeding contribution from Lord McKenzie of Luton (Labour) in the House of Lords on Tuesday, 9 June 2009. It occurred during Committee proceeding and Debate on bill on Welfare Reform Bill.


Welfare Reform Bill

I was trying to answer the noble Lord’s question as best I could. A budget of £20 million has been set aside to develop the pathfinders. That will cover a range of costs that have to be met. The answer is a clear yes. The noble Countess, Lady Mar, asked about average costs. I understand that on average a full daycare place costs about £150 a week.
