A £750,000 creche in parliament has been branded ‘a grotesque waste of public money’ after it emerged that just 15 children use it.
The nursery, which opened 18 months ago to make parliament more ‘family friendly’, has a capacity for 40 children of MPs, peers and others who work on the parliamentary estate, but new figures show less than half that currently attend it.
It has a lower attendance now than in November 2010, when 17 children were enrolled.
