§ 51. Dr. Kingasked the Attorney-General how many actions have been taken by private citizens against the Crown in the past 12 months.
§ The Attorney-GeneralApproximately 520 actions were commenced against the Crown in the High Court and county court during the 12 months ending on 31st May, 1953.
§ Dr. KingSince the Crown prosecutes parents who break the law by not sending their children to school, can the Attorney-General tell us whether that number includes parents who have prosecuted the Crown for not providing school places for their children?
§ The Attorney-GeneralI cannot give information about that, but perhaps the hon. Member will communicate with me.
