HC Deb 24 July 1929 vol 230 c1328W
Duchess of ATHOLL

asked the Secretary of State for Scotland what education authorities are assisted by voluntary care committees in the following up of children ascertained to have medical defects and in the after-care of children who have left school?

Mr. W. ADAMSON

The following-up of children ascertained to have medical defects is undertaken by school nurses with the co-operation, in the case of children at school, of the teachers. The after-care of children who have left school is not a responsibility of education authorities.
