HC Deb 08 June 1931 vol 253 cc632-3W
Mr. T. SNOWDEN

asked the Home Secretary when he hopes to be able to introduce the Bill amending the procedure of the trial of children and young persons under the Summary Jurisdiction Acts; and whether he intends to-incorporate in such Bill provisions for the proof of service of summonses by certification instead of by personal attendance or declaration, as at present?

Mr. CLYNES
