§ 54. Mr. PETHICK-LAWRENCEasked the Secretary of State for the Home Department whether his attention has been drawn to the fact that where there is no woman probation officer appointed by the Court, girls accused of offences quite other than sex offences are sometimes placed under the supervision of the superintendent of a local rescue home, although not being required to reside in it; and whether he will take steps to secure that this practice is discontinued?
§ The UNDER-SECRETARY of STATE for the HOME DEPARTMENT (Captain Hacking)If the hon. Member will send further particulars of the cases he has in mind my right hon. Friend will be glad to consider the matter.
