§ 47. Mr. Sydney Irvingasked the Secretary of State for the Home Department what steps he is taking to urge neighbours and other members of the general public who are aware of cruelty to children to take action by reporting such cases to the police or other bodies capable of taking action.
§ Mr. VosperThe public will, I hope, always be anxious to assist the responsible authorities, who depend a great deal upon an alert public opinion, to prevent cruelty to children. I am sure the hon. Member's Question and other recent publicity will have helped from that point of view.
