Question to the Cabinet Office:

To ask the Minister for the Cabinet Office, how many times the Childcare Implementation Taskforce has met since its creation; what the full attendance was at each such meeting; and on what dates those meetings were held.

Information relating to the proceedings of Implementation Taskforces, including when and how often they meet, is not disclosed as to do so could harm the frankness and candour of internal discussion.

The Government published a list of Cabinet Committees and Implementation Taskforces and their members on 18 October 2016. This can be found at the following web address: https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/the-cabinet-committees-system-and-list-of-cabinet-committees.
