HC Deb 24 October 1944 vol 404 c18
37. Mr. Sloan

asked the Secretary of State for Scotland when he intends to have evacuated schoolchildren returned to their home towns and thereby relieve the pressure on county education committees.

Mr. Johnston

Arrangements for the return of children who went out with their mothers or other adults are already in operation, and instructions were issued to local authorities yesterday about the return of unaccompanied children to every district in Great Britain except London and the South-East of England.
