HC Deb 18 June 1924 vol 174 c2149W
Mr. FISHER

asked the Home Secretary how many industrial schools have been closed during the past three years, and what use is being made of the buildings?

Mr. HENDERSON

Twenty-six industrial schools have been closed since the beginning of 1922. I am sorry I am unable to give any information in reply to the second part of the question. The buildings were not Government property.
