Why are childminders allowed sole charge of up to six children? A day nursery would have to provide two members of staff to care for one child, let alone six. Childminders should have to employ an assistant when caring for other people's children. This would provide a safety net for the children if the childminder should become ill or was in an unfit state to care for the children in her home.

A new scheme aims to tackle Scotland's appalling dental health statistics by setting up a toothbrushing project in every nursery. At present, by the age of five, 55 per cent of Scottish children have dental disease and over a quarter of a million teeth are extracted from Scottish children each year. The Scottish Executive's white paper, Towards a Healthier Scotland, published in 1999, set a target of 60 per cent of five-year-olds with no experience of dental disease by 2010.
