DAY CARE CHARGES OF CUMBRIA COUNTY COUNCIL

That this House condemns the decisions of the Tory/Liberal Democrat controlled Cumbria County Council to increase charges for day care from £3.40 to £13.40; notes that this policy will affect the elderly and infirm and will increase their vulnerability; and calls on Cumbria County Council to scrap this iniquitous policy prior to its proposed implementation in October 2007.
