§ Mr. Lipsonasked the Chancellor of the Exchequer what is the estimated average amount spent out of public funds on a child's health and education in this country up to the school-leaving age; and what is the additional amount for one who remained at school to the age of 16 years.
§ Mr. DaltonThe latest available figures of the cost per child of the education service are those contained in the memorandum published with the Board of Education Estimates for 1939. No corresponding figures are available for the cost per child of publicly provided health services.
