HC Deb 08 July 1970 vol 803 c57W
64. Mr. Millan

asked the Secretary of State for Scotland how many members have been appointed by his Department to the children's panel for Glasgow; and what steps he is taking to appoint further members.

Mr. Edward Taylor

Invitations to serve on the panel have been issued to 197 applicants whose appointment was recommended by the Children's Panel Advisory Committee. My right hon. Friend is also asking the Committee to submit more names as soon as possible in order to achieve a better occupational balance in the panel, and to meet the probable increase in its work.
