HC Deb 28 February 1935 vol 298 c1324W
Mr. R. T. EVANS

asked the Home Secretary whether he will give separately for England, Scotland and Wales a return showing the numbers of juveniles against whom criminal proceedings were taken in each of the years 1930 to 1934; and the figures for each of the counties of Wales?

Sir J. GILMOUR

The question of the supply of figures for Scotland would be a matter for my right hon. Friend the Secretary of State for Scotland. So far as concerns England and Wales, I regret that figures are not available in the form asked for, but in the Criminal Statistics for 1931 and 1932 tables are published showing the number of juveniles found guilty of indictable offences in each police district.
