§ Mr. William Hamiltonasked the Secretary of State for Education and Science if she will take steps to ensure that the Central Statistical Office publishes statistics relating to the total numbers of mentally and socially disturbed children, showing the numbers in special schools run by local education authorities and those in private fee-paying institutions.
§ Mrs. ThatcherThere is no need for me to do so. This information is already published regularly in my annual Statistics of Education for all categories of handicapped pupil.
