HC Deb 23 November 1920 vol 135 c211
30. Viscountess ASTOR

asked the Home Secretary how far progress has been made in drafting proposals dealing with child adoption; and when he proposes to introduce legislation to give effect to them?

Mr. SHORTT

I understand that the Committee which I appointed in August to consider this question are now drafting their Report, and hope to present it before very long. I cannot make any statement as to legislation at present.
