§ 56. Mr. Lovat-Fraserasked the Minister of Health whether he is aware of the case of Leslie Cotton, aged 17, whose parents live at Southdown Road, Carshalton, and who is detained in a lunacy establishment; and whether he is satisfied that the lad ought to be confined as a mental deficient?
§ Sir K. WoodYes, Sir. I am satisfied that this case has properly been dealt with under the Mental Deficiency Acts. It is, however, due for review during the coming quarter, and special consideration will be given to the question whether continued detention is necessary.
