KUWAIT CITY, Jan 5: The Ministry of Social Affairs has completed updating the data of 261 nurseries upon requests of their owners but the ministry stressed legal action will be taken against the violators of the ministry’s decisions.

This comes in the face of the ministry’s relentless pursuit of automating private nurseries, a reliable source told the daily. The sources said: “The total number of private nurseries has reached 554 in all governorates,” and added, “the work is underway to update the data into the nurseries program after the completion of the field survey, according to the current data.” With regard to opening nurseries to receive children after their closure due to the repercussions of the “coronavirus, the sources said “the Ministry of Social Affairs does not object to this step, provided that the health authorities approve the requirements and precautionary measures they see fit in order to avoid children getting infected with the epidemic.”

On the other hand, the sources stated that there are nurseries that violate the decisions of the ministry, which will be singled out after the completion of the modernization and field survey, in preparation for taking the necessary measures against them.
