Nurseries
- Question
-
To ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer, what steps his Department has taken to promote the workplace nursery scheme; and how much has been spent promoting that scheme in each financial year since it was introduced.
- Answer

Workplace Nurseries formed part of Employer Supported Childcare (ESC), which closed for new applicants from 4 October 2018.
Employees already registered before 4th October 2018 are able to continue using the scheme for as long as the employer offers it, or as long as they stay with the employer.
ESC was replaced by Tax-Free Childcare in October 2018.
The Government continues to support parents with childcare, including through Tax-Free Childcare, the free hours childcare offer, and Universal Credit Childcare.
