5. The amount of capital expenditure for the period 2010/11; 2011/12; 2012/13 broken down by the number of schemes benefiting per county?
6. The total level retained by each LA for the running of the FF programme- the total number staff employed and the total number of hours.
7. The percentage allocated against each LA staff member for pension contributions
8. The total amount given out in grant funding from LAs for sustainability and the number.
9. Number of Welsh only settings, Number of Children in each of these settings.

Dear Eccles, Siobhan (LGC - CYP&F),

Derek Jackson
