§ Mrs. Haymanasked the Secretary of State for Social Services if he will list the local authorities which are in fact issuing explanatory leaflets to parents with children in care along the lines of his Department's guidance on the time limit provisions in the Children Act 1975 set out in circular LAC (76) 15.
§ Mr. MoyleI regret that this information is not available. My Department's social work service has encouraged local authorities to issue leaflets based on our guidance and its impression is that most have done so.
