HC Deb 01 March 1973 vol 851 cc393-4W
27. Mr. Peter Archer

asked the Secretary of State for the Home Department when he expects to reach a conclusion on the proposals of the Departmental Committee on the Adoption of Children.

Mr. Awdry

asked the Secretary of State for the Home Department if he can now say when he expects to be able to announce decisions on the report of the Departmental Committee on the Adoption of Children.

Mr. Carlisle

My right hon. Friend cannot yet make a forecast. A number of bodies whose views the Government will wish to take into account are still considering the committee's proposals.
