HC Deb 03 December 1970 vol 807 c436W
54. Mr. Fry

asked the Secretary of State for the Home Department if he will reconsider the decision to make religious worship in young offenders' establishments voluntary, in view of the concern this has caused.

Mr. Carlisle

I see no reason to change my recent decision, which was based on the results of a pilot scheme and the recommendations of a working party under the Chaplain General of Prisons.
