HC Deb 20 April 1961 vol 638 cc120-1W
Mr. C. Osborne

asked the Secretary of State for the Home Department if he will give instructions that all copies of the Barry Report, Command Paper No. 1213, which on page 33 gives the number of persons found guilty of robbery with violence as having risen from 493 in 1948, when corporal punishment was abolished, to 1,031 in 1959, shall have the correct figure written for 1959 and not left at 886, with the paper slip correction, since this can be lost, with the result that the wrong information still stands.

Mr. R. A. Butler

Arrangements have been made for the correction slip to be pasted on to page 33 of all unsold copies of the present edition of the Report. The correct figure will be printed in any new edition.
