Minister: Nurseries will provide 'options' to parents around food and nappies during free hours

Education Minister Jacqui Smith has told Sky News that nurseries will have to provide options to parents rather than charge for additional provisions such as food or nappies during government-funded childcare hours.

It comes as parents and carers of children in England aged nine months or over will be entitled to 15 hours of free childcare a week.
