COMMUNITY SERVICES--CHILD CARE LICENCE REVOKED
-----------------------------------------------------------------
The Department of Community Services has revoked the operating
licence of Krista's Playland day care centre in Sackville,
following repeated violations of the provisions of the Day Care
Act and Regulations.

"Department staff no longer have confidence that the centre is
being operated with due regard for the safety of the children,"
said Community Services Minister John MacEachern.

Parents of children in the centre are being advised of the
action, and provided a list of other day care centres in Halifax
County.
