§ SIR W. J. COLLINS (St. Pancras, W.)To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department whether the records of person convicted of crime or committed to reformatories are kept in such a way as to enable a Return to be prepared showing in what class of school such persons received their education, if any,; whether such information is available for a period of years in any tabulated form; and, if not, whether he would cause such Return to be prepared.
(Answered by Mr. Secretary Gladstone.) The information which my hon. friend desires is not available, and I fear it would be impracticable to attempt to obtain it. I understand, however, that the Report of the Royal Commission on the Feebleminded will contain some information as to the after school life of "special school" children.
