HC Deb 25 April 1940 vol 360 c351
29. Mr. Rhys Davies

asked the Secretary of State for the Home Department whether he has any evidence to show whether juvenile delinquency is on the increase or not?

Sir J. Anderson

I would refer the hon. Member to the reply which I gave on 18th April to a similar Question by the hon. Member for West Leyton (Mr. Sorensen).

Mr. Ede

When is the right hon. Gentleman going to get this information?

Sir J. Anderson

As I have indicated, the information will be available when the report of the Commissioner of Police for the Metropolis is published. That report is now in the Press.
