AN error could leave Chester-le-Street District Council's Selby Cottage Nursery unable to hit its income target.

Councillors approved a 50p increase to £7 in the daily charge for after school care. But the charge should have gone up to £7.50.

Leisure services manager Ian Simon said an "administrative error'' led to the wrong increase appearing in the report councillors approved.

The executive is recommended to approve the new £7.50 charge today.
