election, many community nurseries have been told that, with immediate effect,
they will be having cuts in their budget of up to 60%.<SPAN> </SPAN>This
means cuts of £40,000 to £50,000, which will </SPAN>lead to the serious threat
of nursery closures, and hardship and distress for parents, workers and
children. Meanwhile, the Learning Trust and Hackney Council are denying that
there is a programme of cuts to nursery provision.</FONT></FONT></P>
