Remand Homes, Approved Schools and Probation Hostels

HC Deb 03 March 1960 vol 618 cc154-5W

74. Miss Bacon

asked the Secretary of State for the Home Department, since the Directory of Remand Homes, Approved Schools and Probation Hostels is now out of print, if he will publish in the OFFICIAL REPORT the list of such establishments, showing sex and age groups, nature of management, when first approved by his Department, and date of most recent inspection.

Mr. R. A. Butler

Information about probation hostels is contained in the Directory of Probation Officers and Approved Probation Hostels and Homes, the latest edition of which has just been issued. A new Directory of Remand Homes and Approved Schools is in course of preparation and will be issued as soon as possible. Meantime, I am arranging for a list of these establishments to be placed in the Library.
