History
The Nova Scotia Minister’s Task Force on Day Care was established by Hon. Edmund L. Morris, Minister of Department of Social Services, in December 1982. Its mandate was to study daycare issues and make recommendations on priorities for public funding of daycare in Nova Scotia. The Task Force was comprised of a provincial coordinating committee and five regional committees. The regional committees were responsible for organizing the public meetings and compiling submissions from the public. The provincial coordinating committee was responsible for overall management and direction. Elizabeth McNaughton, Senior Research and Planning Officer with the Department of Social Services, was appointed chair. The Task Force included representatives from registered daycare centres, private day nurseries, the Department of Social Services, and parents. Public hearings were held in March 1983 in 14 locations across the province. They received 102 written or oral presentations and 5 letters. The Task Force presented its final report to the Minister on July 14, 1983 and then disbanded.
