HC Deb 01 August 1961 vol 645 c147W
57. Mr. Callaghan

asked the Secretary of State for the Colonies if, in connection with the implementation of the Probation of Offenders Act in Malta, the Governor will invite a member of the Home Office Probation Inspectorate to visit Malta to advise on the establishment of the probation service; and if, in particular, in connection with the appointment of senior officers in the service, only persons who have had specific probation training will be appointed.

Mr. H. Fraser

Such a visit is not considered necessary as a probation service has been established and a principal probation officer and five probation officers have been appointed, all of whom have received specialised training in this country.
