HC Deb 14 July 1927 vol 208 c2287
10. Mr. SHEPHERD

asked the President of the Board of Education how many permanent open-air recovery school places are necessary to meet the needs of the children in attendance in public elementary schools who are suffering from latent tuberculosis, malnutrition, and anæmia?

Lord E.PERCY

I cannot supply the information asked for, since the number of additional places required would depend upon the length of time for which each child would need to attend an open-air school. In this connection I would refer the hon. Member to the reply given by me on the 17th February last to the hon. Member for Abertillery (Mr. Barker), a copy of which I am sending him.
