HC Deb 13 June 1910 vol 17 c1166W
Mr. HICKS BEACH

asked the President of the Local Government Board whether the Government propose to take any steps to carry out the recommendations of the Royal Commission on the Care and Control of the Feeble-minded?

Mr. CHURCHILL

My right hon. Friend has asked me to answer the question. As stated by the Prime Minister, in reply to a question on 1st November last, the Government are fully alive to the importance of this matter, and a draft Bill is already in preparation, though legislation this Session is, I fear, not practicable.
