§ 67. Captain FAIRFAXasked the Secretary of State for the. Home Department on what grounds, and to what extent, he has sanctioned the practice of subjecting juvenile offenders to experimenters in psycho-analysis; and what precautions he is taking against any possibly dangerous results?
§ Sir W. JOYNSON-HICKSMy hon. and gallant Friend will be pleased to know that I have not sanctioned any such experiments, nor have I any intention of doing so. I may add that the question whether any further provision should be made for the medical examination of young offenders, which is a very different matter, is being considered by the Committee now inquiring into the treatment of young offenders.
