HC Deb 10 March 1931 vol 249 c998W
Mr. SIMON

asked the Minister of Health what is the total number of children between two and five years of age in England and Wales; and how many of them attend a child-welfare centre or are regularly visited by health visitors?

Mr. GREENWOOD

It is estimated that in the middle of 1930 the total number of children between two and five years of age in England and Wales was 1,838,050. I have not sufficient information to enable me to answer the last part of the question.
